Somewhere in Neverland (Lashton)

Ch. 3: All I Need

"Cause you're all I want,

You're all I need,

You're everything, everything."

-Lifehouse (Everything)

The week went by and the boys went on acting like nothing had happened. After the first football game on friday night, there was a party. The game ended with a tie but nevertheless, the boys headed over to Calum's house to party. The music was vibrating off the walls and drunken bodies danced in the dark rooms. A group of seniors sat on the floor of Calum's room. They all sat in a circle and had drinks in their hands.

"Let's play Never Have I Ever!" Katie exclaimed. They all agreed and Calum started the game off.

"Never have I ever slept with my best friend's girlfriend." Michael, Katie, and Justin took a drink of their beers.

"I'll go next, never have I ever had sex with someone of the same gender," Katie said.

Ashton stiffened beside her, watching Luke. They both hesitantly took a drink of their beers. Their friends just stared at them, in shock. Luke met Ashton's eyes as they took a sip of their beers.

"I um have to go to the bathroom," Luke said excusing himself.

He went to the first empty room, he could feel his cheeks heating up and his hands getting sweaty. Ashton remembered, Ashton knew, was all that ran through Luke's panicked mind.

"Luke," Ashton's voice said softly as he entered the room, closing the door behind him. He whipped around to face Ashton.

"Y-you remember," the blonde boy stuttered out. Ashton took a step closer to Luke.

"I do." To Luke's surprise, Ashton didn't look disgusted or mad nor regretful.

"What exactly do you remember?" he tested him. They both took another step closer to each other. Ashton set his hand on Luke's hip and whispered in his ear.

"I remember how we kissed." He kissed Luke on the lips, a short and simple kiss that left both boys trembling.

"I remember how we had sex." Ashton's breath was hot against Luke's neck.

"And I'd do it again." Luke stared at Ashton stunned, then attached their lips together with passion.

Luke pushed Ashton against the door, taking control this time. He kissed all down the brunette's skin as he ripped his clothes off. They made their way to the bed, disregarding their clothes in the process. Luke laid himself on top of Ashton as he snogged the life out of him. And in the back of his mind, he noted that he couldn't taste that much beer on his breath. Neither of them were wasted but they would never admit that to each other. It felt as though, all time had stopped when they kissed. Like there wasn't music blaring in the background or screams heard from down the hall. All they could hear, feel, and see was each other. That was all that mattered to them.

"I wanna be on top this time," Luke mumbled.

Ashton watched Luke in amazement as he took control, grinding his body down on him. There was a look in his eyes that he couldn't quite make out. It was different than any other way he had ever seen them. They dazzled, sparkled, shined. They were filled with happiness, euphoria, and desire. He had never seen the boy so happy. Deep down, he knew that he was just as happy as the other boy, maybe even happier if that was possible. Nails dug into skin as Luke thrusted into Ashton slowly then becoming more fast. The whole time, Luke just simply stared at the other boy's back. He took in every detail of it, memorized it. How halfway down his back, he had a faded birthmark shaped like a heart. And how tan his skin was in the dark lighting. He loved everything about him and maybe he loved him, he just wouldn't admit it to himself. The air filled with screams and ecstasy. And neither of them had felt something so amazing and so true and strong in their lives.
