Thing 12 written by Michael - if you're not a pussy by then ask him to hang out with you (like a date)

Luke was too much of a pussy to do something, being really shy sometimes is a trouble for many people including him. It might explain that time he wanted to buy a shirt and his mom told him to talk to someone who worked there - he ended up stumbling on his words to the woman and passed out in the middle of the store (woke up in the hospital, and as soon as he opened his eyes he was met with Michael laughing at him). He did hang out with Ashton before but it was on 'accident', he wanted to have a planned hang out. Going to the movies seemed to cliché but eating ice cream too, so what if he put them together? It was a like a date ( it was definitly a date).

"Hey, Ash?" he said nervously, stopping the boy from talking to Autumn.

The curly haired boy smiled brightly at him, Autumn smirked and said "I'll leave you two alone.. to get married." before running to her group of friends.

"Hey Luke, what's up?"

"I-I just, was wondering if- you know we wonder about stuff a lot and - I mean - do you want to watch ice cream and eat a movie after that?"

Ashton giggled and Luke put his cold hand on his cheeks, like it could prevent him from blushing more. He gave Ashton a shy smile and stared at his dimples.

"I'd love to. When?"

"T-Tomorrow? If you're okay with that."

"Sure." he said, a car beeped and it was Ashton's mom "I gotta go, sorry. I'll text you later."

"O-Okay." He breathed out "Wait!"

Ashton turned to face him with a smile and Luke leaned in, kissing him slowly. He has been doing that a lot lately. Ashton gripped his sweater and looked down, blushing when they pulled away.

"I'll see you around." he said and left.

Luke whispered 'yes' and walked to the parking lot where his parents were waiting for him. He greeted them when he got in the car but when he looked at them they were looking at him with smirks. Luke let out a nervous laugh and jumpe when he saw Jack there.

"That really was a sweet moment, are you going to take him out sometime?" his dad asked while his mom just wiggled her eyebrows.

"Luke has a better love life than I do."

Luke covered his face with his hands, groaning when they started laughing.

"You weren't supposed to see that."

His mom pulled out her phone, opening the gallery "You looked so cute, I even have pictures!"

The blonde fixed his hair in front of a mirror at the car on the next day. He was going to meet up with Ashton at the mall movie theater since none of them knew how to drive. Smile by R5 was playing on the radio. He shifted nervously, sweat being evident under his armpits.

"You don't have to be so nervous." His brother, Ben, said while focusing on the road "It will be fine. Your jacket is in the backseat along with some deodorant. Don't forget one thing."

"What?

"Make him smile."

Luke nodded and got out of the car when Ben stopped at the entrance. He had his wallet with money to pay for the tickets and the ice cream, some food at the cinema too.

He saw Ashton in front of him and ran to the feminine boy, wrapping his arm around his waist and kissing his cheek. Ashton looked at him and smiled, pecking his lips and intertwining their fingers.

"You've been doing that a lot." Luke said with a smile.

"It's because I have an abism for you."

"Your words are my words."

They got in the movie teather and looked at the movies, deciding to watch Spotlight. Maybe it was not good for a date, they should watch something more sweet but they loved Drama.

After the movie they went to the ice cream parlor at the eating zone. Ashton ordered a strawberry ice cream while Luke stuck to chocolate. The curly haired boy insisted on paying and Luke had no choice but let him do it.

They talked while they ate it. It was full of laughs but some serious moments too. They got to know each other inside and out, their feelings and thoughts.

"When I was always sad because I couldn't eat the moon." Ashton said with a giggle, making Luke laugh. They were waiting for their parents to pick them up

"Why would you want to eat the moon?"

"I thought it tasted like strawberries!"

They laughed but stopped after a while and everything went silent. The only thing you could hear were cars. Ashton was sitting in Luke's lap, they were holding hands. Ashton rested his head in Luke's shoulder and the blonde took the opportunity to play with Ashton's hair and kiss his forehead.

"I loved tonight." Ashton said.

"Me too."

"I don't ever want it to end."

He sat up straight in Luke's lap, looking at his eyes. Luke enjoyed how Ashton's eyes were so hazel that it looked lile a forest, it reminded him of nature and nature was beautiful. He lifted his hand to carress Ashton's cheek with his finger, the other boy leaned in to his touch.

"You're so beautiful." Luke breathed out "I like you so much."

And in that moment the world was just the two of them.
