13 Things I Love About You (lashton au)

Chapter 11

[ok, this is slightly confusing I realize. So basically, the party takes place on December 20th but when Calum confronted Luke about being boring, and the events leading up to the party are all before that, got it? Ok let's go]

Everyones outfit for the party is on the side!

I don't know what I love anymore..

It was a couple days before Christmas and soon Ashton would be departing back to Italy to spend it with his parents while Calum and I, went to Australia to see our families. It was last Thursday when Calum pointed something out to Ashton and I while we were lounging on the couch watching movies.

"Y'know, you guys sleep in a lot." I heard the kiwi boy say, looking over at him from where I had Ashton cuddled on my chest.

"We like to cuddle." I shrugged, I didn't think it was a big deal. Me and Ash usually spent our time cuddling.

"Do you guys ever do anything fun? Like go out and stuff?" He asked, looking at us expectantly.

I looked at Ashton and he shrugged before laying his head back down on my chest and I looked back to Calum.

"Nope." He scoffed and I rolled my eyes, getting comfortable on the couch again.

"You guys are the most boring 22 year olds I've ever met."

And that's how I ended up on my couch at two am a sobbing mess in my best friends arms.

"Calum I already told you I'm not going to some dumb Christmas party with a bunch of half naked girls and obnoxiously intoxicated boys." I rolled my eyes, continuing to type my new English story for my creative writings class.

"Oh come on Luke! You're 22 years old and all you ever do is stay inside cuddling your boyfriend!" He whined, waving his arms which only animated his outburst more.

"S'betted than getting drunk on God knows what." I shrugged, not taking my eyes off the pixilated piece of paper in front of me.

"Luke! Please! One party! You'll have fun I promise! You can even bring Ashton just please come! Please!" He begged, getting on his knees besides my bed.

[Get your head out of the gutter. ;) ]

I sighed, looking down at him and biting my lip before groaning and giving in.

"Fine! I'll go!" I ran a hand over my face while I leant my head back, already regretting my decision.

"Yes!" Calum squealed getting up and dancing a bit before he went to make a call which, I guessed was to rsvp.

I took that time to call Ashton and ask him if he wanted to come to the party as well, he agreed and then we hung up so he could pack.

Calum walked back in and I held back a glare.

"Don't make me regret this, Cal.."

I adjusted my beanie in the mirror as I waited for Ashton to arrive. Michael had gotten here five minutes ago and now we were just waiting for Ashton to get here so we could take off. Just as I was about to text him the doorbell rang and I jogged over to answer it, opening the door to a cute looking Ashton looking up at me.
