---------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Luke's POV*

I slowly walk upstairs to my room. For some reason I got very tired after my chat with Mike and Cal. I decide to go and lay in bed. I open my door and walk straight to my bed. I plop down on it and rest my tired head on my pillow.

*The next day*

I wake up to a warm breeze brushing through my room. 'Funny' i think 'I don't remember opening the window last night' I ignore the slight detail and continue to stand up and walk to my closet. I put on some black jeans and a tank top. I grab my phone and check the time and I'm surprised to see that its saturday. Well that was stupid of me to wake up so early then. Tired, i walk downstairs while texting Michael.

'Hey Mike u wanna meet up today with Calum and talk about the whole band thing?'

I put my phone back into my pocket and walk into the kitchen. Just as I'm about to get the vegemite out of the cupboard my phone buzzes in my pocket. I pull it out and see that it is Michael.

"Sure. Sounds like a great idea! I'll call Calum and tell him to meet us at my house at 9, ok?"

"Alright"

I put my phone back in my pocket and continue to make my sandwich. I go over to the couch and sit down. After about 10 minutes of angry birds and a sandwich i get up and decide to do something productive.

Just as I start to put on my coat i hear my mums voice coming from upstairs.

"Luke! Get your ass up here" I hear my mum shout. I run upstairs and open her door slowly.

"Yea" I say in almost a whisper. I know how my mum can be in the mornings, especially on a saturday.

"Where are you going? Your boyfriend's house?" She asks with a mocking tone

"No mum I'm going to Michael's house. We are gunna start a band" I say thinking that she would have some type of pride in me. A look passes across her face so quickly I almost don't catch it but it looks like, amusement.

"Oh really? Well i hope you know that you will never make it. Go have fun i guess, bye" She says and lays back down.

I run downstairs and grab my shoes and out the door. I speed out the door and towards Michael's house. I cut through a park to get there faster. I walk, like usual, with my head down. Its a habit i guess. I am almost through the park when i bump into something. I fall flat on my butt. I look up to see none other than, you guessed it, Daniel. I try to get up but he kicks me back down. i try again but the same thing happens. After about 3 more tries he lets me get up. I think by now i have a bruise on my lower chest, it kills. He looks me straight in the eye.

"You are a true waste of space. Nobody likes you and we all want you to kill yourself. Honestly if you do it would make all of our live so much better. You are nothing" He finishes.

Words cannot describe how i feel right now. That is one of the worst things anyone has ever said to me. I feel like all of those things are true. He takes one step closer to me and punches me square in the face. This isn't going to end well. I take another punch then another. One in the stomach and again in the face. All of a sudden i hear a voice.

"STOP!" The voice shouts. I don't know who it is because i am a little impaired.

"Leave him alone you asshole" The voice says again. this time i turn to see who my saviour is and to my surprise its Ashton. He walks over to Daniel and I and the group of kids surrounding us.

"What are you going to do about it?" Daniel says.

"Well i could call the cops, you could get arrested for harassment" Ashton says feeling pleased with himself. A smile appears on his face but not one of happiness but of power.

"Fine whatever" Daniel say and shoves me out of the way before he walks away, the other kids following him.

"You ok?" Ashton asks. I don't respond. I am to shocked that he is actually talking to me.

"Luke?" Ashton says getting worried.

"Yea, yea I'm good. Thank you so much. That was awesome i can't even thank you enough" I say back

"No problem mate" He says "So does this make us friends now?"

"Yea, I-I guess it does" I stutter. It is so hard to keep the giant smile from spreading across my face. This is making me so happy.

"Hey whats your number? So we can text and stuff" He asks

"648-629-3740" I say

"Thanks, I guess I'll talk to you later then" And with that he walks away. I smile ear to ear and head towards Michael's house. I can't believe that just happened to me.
