Teacher - Lashton (boyxboy)

Chapter 7

Luke's P.O.V

"Luke, Michael's here." My mother yelled from down the stairs. It was currently a Saturday and I've not seen Ashton or Michael since Thursday since I have free periods all day on Friday.

Before I had the chance to sit up in bed, my bedroom door burst open and Michael walked in, closing it behind him.

"Hey bro," He smiled, "I got the new Panic! album and it's fucking amazing." He grinned as I sat up I'm my bed, pulling my batman bed sheets up to my chin because I was cold and felt extremely ill.

"Cool. How was school on Friday?" I sighed.

"It was all right I guess. As good as school can be really." He smiled, "Calum and I have actually become a lot closer. I found out so much about him and he's actually really cool."

"That's great man. Told you I was helping you out. I saw the way you stared at him when he walked in." I grinned.

"I was not staring at him." He exclaimed sincerely.

"You were practically drooling over him." I laughed as he shook his head. "And if he's single you have a chance." I winked as his face turned into a frown.

"He's bisexual but, he has a girlfriend."

"I'm sor-" I began before Michael rudely cut me off.

"Don't be sorry!" Michael started, yelling. "I don't even have a crush on him so why the fuck are you acting like I do. All I said was that we've got closer. It's not like we're bum buddies. It's not like I want to be bum buddies with him. I don't have a crush on him so stop fucking talking about him." He finished, face flushed red with anger and his hands in fists.

"I'm just trying to be a good mate. It's not like I told the whole school you like him. It's not like I told the whole school you're gay either so, I don't get why you're so mad." I yelled back.

"I'm mad because you wont stop going on and on about him. I don't go on and on about this teacher you're bum buddies with. I kept that a secret for you."

"First of all, you brought up Calum - not me. And secondly, there's no secret to keep with me and that teacher. There's nothing going on with us because oh, yeah, it's fucking illegal." I yelled as my bedroom door burst open. My mother was standing at the door in shock to what she's just heard.

"What's going on here?" Mum asked.

"I'm leaving. That's what's going on. See you later, Luke." Michael mumbled, pushing past my mum who's still stood in the doorway with shock. She walked into my room and sat down on the end of my bed.

"What's happened between you and Michael? What were you fighting about?" She asked.

"Doesn't matter." I mumbled.

"Yes it does. I care about you, Luke."

"I know mum, but I really don't want to talk about it." I weakly smiled a dis-hearted smile as she nodded and stood up, walking to my door.

"Okay, but if you want to talk to me about anything, you can." She smiled before leaving.

~Monday Morning~

I walked to my locker and put the code into the lock. I opened it up and pushed my bag inside of it swapping it for my sociology folder and a pen. I had two free periods this morning so I decided it'd be best to finish my sociology essay so I don't get a detention for handing it in late. I put my hand on my locker door, getting ready to close it. I looked at the photo of Michael and I from a while ago blu-tacked onto the inside of my locker door and all the memories of the other day flooded into my mind. I understand that best-friends fight but, fighting was extremely unusual for Michael and I.

I slammed the locker door out of anger and began to make my way down the hall. I bumped into Michael and Calum on my way to the library and as I walked near them, Michael bumped past  me on purpose as he whispered "dick." in my ear.

I immediately turned round and charged up to Michael.

"What the fuck is your problem?" I yelled after him. He turned round almost  instantly and he raced up towards me.

"You." He started, growling. He was so close, our faces were almost touching. "You humiliated me, so, I'll humiliate you. Just you wait Hemmings."

Michael was way taller than me, so to say I was intimidated by him was an understatement. He did scare me, however, we were such good friends I put the intimidation past me and didn't take notice of it as he never usually meant what he said. But, we're not in the best place at the moment and when Michael wants to do something - he does it.

"When? When did I humiliate you?" I asked, trying to keep my calm. 

"The other day at yours." He frowned.

"In front of whom?" I laughed. Michael just ignored me and carried on walking down the hall. I started making my way back to the library. My face
all red - I could feel it. If Michael was going to humiliate me, he didn't have to try very hard. This encounter just makes me want to crawl into a hole and cry forever.

"Luke?" I was snapped out of my thoughts by a familiar voice, Ashton.

"Mhmm, yes, Mr Irwin?"

"You seem quite distracted? Are you okay? Would you like to talk?" He asked, looking concerned.

"Um, yes actually, can we talk?" I asked, looking down at my feet waiting for a reply.

"Of course. Come to my class room with me. I was on my way back there now." He said, gentility.

When we got back to the classroom, Ashton headed to the music cupboard. I followed shortly behind and clicked the door too behind me. I was embraced in a muscular hug and honestly, it made me feel complete.

"What's up?" Ashton asked, looking me in the eyes.

"Drama with Michael." I sighed before explaining everything to him.

"Wow, that must be pretty tough." He started as I nodded, agreeing. "Well, to make you feel better. How would one like to accompany me in a  meal tonight at my place?"

"You mean like a date?" I asked.

"Not like a date, it is a date." He smiled.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world." I smiled back, pulling him into a hug.

"I'll text you the address then." He started, "But, you might wanna go, this period ends soon and I think you must've been heading to the library to get some work done." He smirked as I went to leave.

"Bye." I laughed
before leaving.

He could make me feel so much better, just with that beautiful smile of his.
