I loved Ashton's voice

"-and then he took a call in the middle of the lecture! I swear, this is why I hate substitutes!" I listened to Ashton rant as I was hanging up some snowflake decorations around my flat. Calum and Michael went Christmas shopping earlier in the morning so I invited Ashton over to help me decorate. I smiled endearingly over at the curly headed boy who sat near the fake Christmas tree, sorting out a color scheme in the ornaments. I guess he noticed I hadn't said anything and looked up, furrowing his eyebrows at me and smiling crookedly at me, "Why're you looking at me like that?" He chuckled.

"Hm? Oh nothing," I chuckled "you're just cute." He rolled his eyes at me, sticking his tongue out before going back to sorting the ornaments. I laughed softly, turning back around to finish hanging up the snowflakes.

I climbed down from the small step ladder and walked over to where Ashton was sitting, sitting behind him and resting my chin on his shoulder.

"You know... When you said you wanted to decorate the tree.. I thought you meant you were going to put ornaments on the tree." I laughed seeing his pouty face and kissed his cheek.

"You don't want a messy Christmas tree do you? They always look better when the colors are planned out." He huffed, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning into me.

"M'just messing with you Ash." I chuckled kissing his temple. "You have a cute pouty face though." I smiled at him and he just shook his head, giggling with me. I stood up with a grunt, pulling Ash up with me as well and put my hands on his waist.

"Why don't we take a break, yeah? We can make cookies..." I smiled, swaying slightly.

"Okay, I needed break anyway." He chuckled.

"What, all that organization got you pooped?"

"Pooped?"

I laughed, shaking my head and walked towards the kitchen with Ashton in tow.

"What does it mean?" He said from behind me, making me laugh harder. I always found it funny when I used slang Ashton didn't understand.

"Nothing babe, come help me make cookies, yeah?"

Later on I was sat in my bed with Ashton curled into my side as we watched some old Christmas movies and eating the cookies that we made earlier. Well Ashton did more work than I, but that's not going to stop me from saying we.

I groaned, grabbing the remote and switching the tv off, hearing Ashton whine from under my arm and I looked down at him.

"What'd you do that for?" His Italian accent rang out in a whiney tone making me smile softly.

"The movie was boring, lets talk." I sat up a little straighter, looking down at him. He gave me a weird look before sitting across from me with his legs folded.

"About what?" He tilted his head, resembling a cute little puppy like he always did.

I shrugged biting my lip and leaning against the bed board.

"I don't know.." I mumbled, "I just wanna hear you speak." I smiled at him as I made myself comfortable, I opened my arms, making grabby hands at him. He rolled his at me and crawled over so he was lying on top of me. I smiled smugly wrapping my arms around him and nuzzling my nose into his shoulder.

"Speak." I said into his shoulder, the sound coming out muffled but still audible. I felt him chuckle a little making me smile.

"I really do not know what you want me to say.." I shrugged looking up at him from his shoulder.

"Just ramble, you're cute when you're speaking." I saw his cheeks redden and I smirked a little digging my nose back into his shoulder.

"Okay... Uhm," he sighed, and then began rambling. His accent wasn't as thick as when I first met him, but you could still hear it clearly. I smiled to myself, listening to Ashton's melodic voice ring through my ears.

"-and so I asked her if I could bring you because of course I want my boyfriend there..-" my ears perked up at that as I rose my head, looking at him with an amused smirk. "...what?"

"Boyfriend?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You called me your boyfriend."

"Oh, I did?" His head tilted and my smirk turned into a grin as I nodded.

"Yeah."

"Oh."

"Do you want to be?"

"Do I want to be what?"

"My boyfriend."

"Oh!" He blushed.

"Well...?"

"Yeah," he nodded. "I do"

I smiled wider, kissing his lips softly.

"Good." Amazing.

I couldn't stop smiling, he was my boyfriend. This beautiful, angelic, boy was my boyfriend.

"Luke?" I hummed. "I'm tired.."

"Oh,"  I lied down, pulling Ashton with me and kissing the top of his head.

"Good night... boyfriend." I smiled and he hit my chest making me laugh.

"Good night.."

I still loved Ashton's voice
