When Luke woke up he felt his head against a soft chest. He frowned remembering what happened last night. Luke knew that Ashton was lying, something was wrong but the blonde couldn't figure out what was that wrong. He rubbed his eyes softly and he eyed at Ashton for a second or maybe two.

The small boy was cute, his lips weren't closed and he was snoring a little, Luke found that he was really adorable. Ashton's curls were messy against the pillow and he looked so peaceful, he was like a sleeping angel.

Suddenly the door opened wildly and Michael appeared with a surprised look.

« Hey, Ash where's – Oh goddamnit you're here. » Michael gaped. « What the fuck are you doing here? »

« Shtt. » Luke whispered. « You're going to wake him up. »

« I don't care what you're doing here, don't you have your own bed? »

Michael was upset, he didn't want Ashton to have his heart break. He knew that Luke was totally oblivious to everything and he didn't want Ashton to have high hopes and then to be disappointed.

« Don't be that rude. » Luke frowned. « We were watching a movie and we just fell asleep. »

« Yeah, well get your ass up we gotta catch our plane to Miami. » Michael said.

«What? » Luke checked his phone, and damn it they had to be at the airport in twenty minutes. « Okay, you can go I'll wake him up. » He said and Michael didn't move. « C'mon just leave! »

« Okay, I'm already gone. » Michael raised his hand in defence. « Calm your tits! »

Michael closed the door roughly but it didn't wake Ashton.

« Ash. » Luke brushed his nose against Ashton's one softly. « Ashy wake-up. »

Ashton hummed and he tied his hands into Luke's back, he sighed and Luke giggled, Ashton was so lazy in the morning, that was his thing, he couldn't achieve anything before 10 am.

« C'mon sleepy head, we gotta go to the airport. »

« No. » Ashton grumbled. « Don't want to. » He sighed. « Wanna stay in your arms forever. »

Luke giggled and he rubbed Ashton's back. But then the small boy realized what he just said and he quickly sat in the bed, eyes wide open.

« I mean, yeah, we're gonna be late, we should go. » He nearly jumped off the bed and he put on his pants.

Ashton grumbled at himself, damn he shouldn't have said that. But thankfully Luke was still oblivious and the blonde just left to his room, saying he would meet Ashton downstairs. The door slammed softly and Ashton face-palmed, he had to tell him now it was time, Luke was worried about Ashton being distant an the small boy didn't want to make Luke sad, no that's the last thing he wanted.

Three hours later Ashton was in the plane, Michael next to him. The pink-ish haired boy was eyeing Ashton for a few minutes now and the brown could tell that the boy was holding himself to talk.

« Alright go ahead, Mikey. » Ashton giggled.

« What happened last night Ash? »

« Nothing, we just fell asleep. »

« Ash... » Mike insisted, giving the boy a warning look.

« I know, it was nothing. I'm not hoping anything. » He sighed. « But now I wish it didn't happen because for a moment when I woke up I thought... I thought it was real, I thought he loved me back and... »

« Maybe it's really time for you to tell him. » Michael patted his shoulder. « Look I don't want to rush you or anything but you can't keep suffering like this. »

« I know. » Ashton sighed. « I'm going to tell him. »

And now he meant it, Ashton was determinate to tell Luke that he loved him.

He needed to.
