Mind Reader ☆ Lashton

Three

I could totally be in Luke's lane if Michael Clifford didn't exist. But he does so I'm stuck.

This isn't a very good chapter but im not a very good writer yet so bleh.

-

"Aye, pick up that wrapper. This is not the time to eat calendar. We are in gym." I say waiting for to pick up the candy wrapper he just dropped. We are currently in gym. I hate gym. It's too much work.

We have to prance around in shorts and play whatever-ball and get all sweaty and sticky, which is not fun at all I might add. Everyone is too rough and serious. One time this one guy even pinched my elbow because I kicked the ball out of the field by accident.(this happened to me irl. He violated my elbow that day)

It wasn't my fault! I just panicked. I don't need all this pressure in my life.

So me and Calum usually hide behind this tree to get out of having to play. We just lounge around and chill until class is over. Somehow, no one ever notices we are gone. They also never look for us.

It's weird.

And what's super weird is that Liquid(XD Luke) is coming this way. I nudge Calum's shoulder.

"Lays potato chip is coming this way." I say peaking to see him still coming.

Calum: "what is with you and all these secrete names and shit?"

Ashton: "how can you not know who lactose is?!"

Calum: "Now who is lactose? I CONFUS RIGHT NOW ASHTON, YOU'RE SCARING ME."

Ashton: "WHY ARE YOU HOLELRING! YOU WANT LISOLE TO HEAR YOU?"

Calum: "I DONT SEE A CAN OF DISINFECTANT SPRAY ANYWHERE. HOW COULD A CAN OF LISOLE HEar ME!

Luke: "MAY I JOIN IN ON THE YELLING!"

Calum: (screams loudly)

Ashton: "HES THE CAN OF DISINFECTANT SPRAY. KILL IT WITH FIRE!"

Calum: "So you are telling me that all this time, (pinches bridge of nose) you've been saying words that start with "l" you've been meaning Luke this whole time?"

Ashton: (shrugs) "I thought you knew. "

Calum: "DOES IT LOOK LIKE I KNEW?"

Ashton: "HEY NOW, STOP ALL THIS YELLING. I HONESTLY FEEL SO ATTACKED RIGHT NOW."

Calum: "I'm just gonna leave. I don't need this. Goodbye."

Calum gets up and just walks away.

"HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME YOU LITTLE BITCH. I THOUGHT WHAT WE HAD WAS SPECIAL. YOU CANT RUN FORVER HOOD." I yell in his direction.

He gives me the finger, "Fuck youuuuuhh." He drags out, Voice fading our as he got farther away.

I can't believe this. He left me here alone with lollipop. This is not okay.

I sigh, "what do you want now, Luke."

"Oh my god, You said my name! You actually said my real name. I'm just-" He pretends to get choked up and wipes at the non-existing tears in his eyes, "so overwhelmed with emotions right now."

I roll my eyes but can't help but laugh quietly, "yeah, don't get used to it, lava lamp."

"And we are back to square one." He takes a seat where cal was sitting before he bailed like a little butt.

"So this is why I never see you during gym. You're always hiding." Luke says picking at the fresh grass.

"I just don't like gym. It's stupid." I peek over the tree to see Calum talking to some guys I don't know. I turn back around to see that Luke has scooted impossibly close to me. I let out a startled yelp.

"God, you scared me! How did you get over here so fast and quietly." I put my hand on my chest.

"Some things are better left unknown."

I'm not with all this mysterious shit. Maybe I should make a break for it.

"No! You can't leave. We haven't even gotten to know each other yet."

Okay, now he's really creeping me out. How did he know what I was thinking?

"You're weird. A weird little green bean. I'm scared. You're scaring me. You're the devils child." I push his face away from me.

Maybe I am overrating just a little, i me-

"Yeah you are." Luke says out of the blue.

"Yeah I am what?"

Hoe don't do do it...

"Overreacting."

Oh mah gawd.

Oh hell naw.

"fuck this shit, I'm out, mhmm. I don't know how or what you are doing but I don't like it. You messing with my brain I can't handle this. It's wasn't nice knowing you. Goodbye." I say stumbling a little trying to get away from Luke.

He's giving me bad vibes.

How can he be able to say what I'm thinking? No one has ever been able to unlock the depths of my mind. My mind is my place where I can feel safe having no one know what I'm thinking or how I'm acually feeling and I feel like Luke somehow is violating that.

He knows something that I don't and I'm going to get to the bottom of it.

"Calum!" I say quickly walking trying to catch up to him.

"What?" He asks once I'm walking beside him.

"Ok. Ya know that Luke guy. He is the freaking devil and I can not be near him."

"Ashton, I'm pretty sure you're over-reacting a little."

"That the thing, I said that too. But Luke said it whole I was thinking it. I'm not. He's creepy. It's like, he can read my mind or something."

"So you're saying he's a mind reader? The probability of that is zero. Didn't I tell you to stop staying awake and watching late night tv? It's messing with your brain ashton, you're going crazy."

"I'm not crazy!" I argue. I move my hands around for dramatic effect, "If anyone's crazy," I turn around and look over me shoulder, "it's Luke. Why you no believe me?"

"How could I believe a crazy person?" Calum says changing out of the gym shorts once we reach the locker rooms.

"I'm not crazy, I'll prove to you that Luke is apart of the illuminati and can read minds." I say changing also.

"Ok," Calum turns to me, "it's a bet."

"If I prove Luke is a mind reader, you have to bow down, kiss my ass, and worship me for 3 whole weeks."

"And if you don't prove that Luke is apart of the illuminati and can read minds, you have to do the same for me." Calum says.

"It's on." We shake hands.

"Hey Calum?"

"Yes?"

"You never picked up your candy wrapper."

-------:--------)--------:--------)

1k+ wordssss :-))

Luke is indeed apart of the illuminati. Coll is cool gave me all the evidence I needed to confirm it.

CALUM THINKS THAT ASHTON IS CRAZY BUT ASHTON HIT HIS HEAD ON THE NAIL WHEN HE SAID LUKE IS A MIND READER. Or is it hit the nail on the head, or is there a hammer involved?

Hit the hammer on the nail?

Hit the nail on the head?

I don't FUKING know but you know what I mean.

Peace out 👋
