Better Man [Cashton AU]

vi

the next morning, ashton is surprised to learn that calum's ex boyfriend was partially the reason for calum to start with the drugs.

now, even though he looks as if he's one of the big guys, he's become their little rag doll to use.

he agrees that it wasn his fault too, as he gave in at the end, but he has no idea what to do next, or where to go.

he sits on ashton's bed with knees pulled up to his chest and wide, scared eyes that follow the older boy's every action as he sits in front of him. an anxious tendency, ashton notices. he notices everything, from the the constant fidgeting to his glassed over eyes.

all he can do for now, is give calum the comfort he needs, allowing the boy to realie that no matter what had happened, he never should have let ashton go.
