Waste the night || Lashton

Chapter 6

A/n I am dedicating this chapter to @lashtons_bandanas because they've been very supportive of my story so far :)

Luke's POV
I walked briskly through the streets as tears of confusion, frustration and anger streamed down my face. The wind nipped at my face and I tried to wipe away my tears with the back of my hand.

It suddenly daunted on me that I never actually knew Ashtons sexuality. I had just presumed that he was straight, but I was beginning to realise that he was most likely not.

As far as I was aware, I was straight, yet the more I thought about it, the more I doubted it. I hadn't had a girlfriend for as long as I could remember and I was pretty sure the feelings I had for Ashton were more than just friendly.

I was angry at myself for hurting Ashton. I saw the pained look on his face when I broke from the kiss. It's not that I didn't enjoy the kiss, because believe me, it felt so right. I pulled away because I was confused about my sexuality. Was I gay?

Ashtons POV
I was sitting in my bedroom, strumming my guitar to take my mind off Luke. I hadn't heard from him for 2 days.
I would be lying if I said I didnt cry when Luke left because I knew I had scared him away. I was stupid to kiss him when he was straight and I was angry at myself for doing so.

I was still strumming away at my guitar when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I pulled it out and checked the screen.

One new message from Luke

I opened the message as fast as I could, my heart racing with anticipation as it loaded.

Luke: meet me at the bridge at the park at 3.

I re-read the message over a few times, making sure what I read was correct. I was shocked that Luke still wanted to talk to me after the move I pulled.

I send him an 'okay' as a reply and went to grab my jacket. My phone read 2:37 so I pulled my boots onto my feet and slipped my phone and keys into my pocket. I wanted to be early so that I didn't miss Luke and he wouldn't be anymore more angry with me before I even had the chance to apologise.

The rain was falling heavily, soaking everything in sight. I was dripping wet already and I could feel it soaking through my jacket and into my clothes. I neared the bridge at the park and I could already see Luke's figure in the distance. He was looking over the railing at the water again, but this time he heard me coming.

I could tell by the way he was fiddling with his fingers that he was nervous and I didn't blame him. He had his hood up but the rain still managed to run down his face, yet he didn't seem fazed by it. I finally reached him and we stood face to face. I searched his eyes and I could see that he was anxious, however I couldn't trace any anger towards me.

"Ash I..." Luke began but I interrupted him.

"Luke wait. I want to apologise. I am so sorry for kissing you and I know how stupid it was of me and I should have asked you before I did anything like that and.." My rambling was cut off my Luke leaning in and pressing his lips to mine, kissing me softly as if he was unsure of himself.

I didn't respond at first due to pure shock, but when Luke started kissing me more roughly I began kissing him back.
My stomach was filled with butterflies and my skin was tingling from Luke's touch. Our lips moved in sync and the kiss deepened. I could feel his lip ring cold against my lips. Luke's hand ran through my soaking wet hair, pulling at it slightly, making me moan softly into the kiss.

The rain was dripping down our faces yet it made the kiss more passionate. I could feel Luke smiling into it and I started to pull away. I broke off from him, a smile braking out onto my face.

His lips were now swollen and he whispered to me with a smile on his face

"I'm gay Ashton."
