[ double update bc y'all deserve it ]

Luke Hemmings

I stayed awake all night waiting and waiting for Ashton to return home but he never did. I never got a call or text from him either. He was upset with what i was saying yesterday and i knew it.

Ethan slept on me on the couch for almost the whole night only waking up a couple times because he got hungry but other than that he was sleeping beauty.

The time said 8:13am when i looked over and i sighed just waiting for the small curly lad to finally get home.

I checked my phone almost every 2 seconds hoping maybe when i looked i'd see his name come across my screen.

When the time read 9:30am i gave up and just got Ethan and I ready for the day. He would have to come with me to my meeting today since Ashton never came back.

"I thought you said he wouldn't have to be here today?" My manager spoke, speaking about Ethan.

"My fiancé never came home after our small argument last night. I'm sorry."

"It's fine, let's just get this album meeting over with before he starts to throw a tantrum."

Ethan sat on my lap drawing with the pen and blank paper that was set in front of him.

"Dada," He showed me his drawing while my manager was speaking and i said thank you quietly but of course my manager stopped talking.

"Something important over there?"

"He just wanted to me show me his drawing." I looked down at the small boy, "Show him your drawing Ethan."

Ethan held up his drawing just to receive a bunch of aws and coos.

"You are so lucky he is cute." My manager said laughing a little.

The rest of the meeting went on and we had a set release date for my album and tour tickets ready to be sold.

When I got home I forgot that Ashton hadn't been home the whole night so when I saw him I instantly hugged him and gave him a lot of kisses. But I was instantly reminded when the smell of alcohol was through the roof.

"Ashton you drank?" He nodded not saying a word to me, "Where were you all night? I was worried sick." He just shrugged again not use his words, "Can you at least talk to me?" Nothing was said again making me upset with him, "You could at least say something to me."

"I'm sorry." He said quietly messing with the sleeves of his well actually mine, now disgusting sweatshirt.

"I'm sorry isn't enough for this."

"I just got drinks last night and slept on the floor of a bar and woke up in the middle of nowhere scared out of my mind." He mumbled, "I don't know if i was raped or if i just stumbled out of the bar on my own. Please just don't be mad at me right now."

And of course me being me, fell for that stupid trick and instantly held onto the small boy again, "Ash I'm so sorry."

He held onto me tightly and sobbed quietly into my chest shaking slightly.

"Lu i'm so scared. I didn't mean for this to happen." I made sure Ethan was occupied before carefully bringing the brunette into our room and closing the door.

"You need to get cleaned up. I'll run you a bath and you just get undressed."

I quickly started the bath and when i went back to get him i noticed the bruises and scratches that ran all down his back. They made me frown knowing someone could have been hurting him last night and me not being able to help him.

I didn't say anything about the marks, instead i carefully helped him into the bath and cleaned him off carefully avoiding as many bruises as i could but his whole body seemed to be bruised.

I sighed and stared at the green eyed boy worried, "Ashton." I asked getting his attention, "I love you dearly with all my heart."

"I love you dearly with all of my heart too," He leaned over wrapping his wet arms around me but i could care less that i was getting wet.

After he was cleaned up i helped him get dressed and get into bed.

"Lu, i don't want you to leave without me." He held onto me, "I'm coming with you on tour."

"Are you sure Ash?"

"I'm positive. Ethan, you, and i will have so much fun together. And if i get cut hours it's okay because you playing all these gigs and becoming more well known can help us." He smiled up at me with his chin rested against my chest.

"We can plan our wedding on the tour too, since we haven't quite got around to that."

"Sounds like an amazing plan to me." He gave me a sweet kiss before cuddling against my chest.

"I think i should go get Ethan though. He shouldn't stay in the front room him self." I pouted down at the comfortable boy and he nodded.

When i came back with Ethan and his pack n play Ashton was completely passed out on the bed cuddling my pillow. Ethan sat in his pack n play with toys and my phone so he could watch kids shows while i got back into bed with the tired brunette. As soon as i moved the pillow his tiny body clinged onto mine and went back to his comfortable position.

I was so excited for when tour came around too since i'd be with my best friend/lover and son the whole time.
