Close As Strangers ( Lashton And Malum AU ) EDITING SOON

Chapter 2

Luke's POV

Ashton and I just ended up cuddling in the sofa after I washed the dishes. Ashton made me watch Titanic, he said it was an amazing movie. We were watching the part when the ship sank.

I was tearing up a bit and Ashton was sniffling "Are you crying babe?" I asked him "A little." I just smiled at his cuteness. His head was on top of my chest and my head was on top of his.

It occurred to me that what if I was going to another country again? Would I be able to handle being away from him? Can Ashton handle it too? Will he leave me?

I just couldn't stop worrying, it's like my heart was being ripped out of my chest when I think about it.

Ashton must have noticed me worrying because he was looking at me with concern in his eyes "Are you okay Luke?" He asked me "I don't think so babe."

"Why is that?" You can hear the worry in his voice "Because what if I was going away again? I'm just scared that you might not be able to handle that I'm always away and that you might leave me... I don't want you to go... I'm afraid that if I leave, you might break up with me because of the hate that you get..." I can feel a stinging sensation in my eyes. Tears were threatening to fall down my face.

"I'm just so scared Ash, I'm scared that you might get tired of our relationship being always like this." I was already crying and sobbing on his shirt "Shh, I won't leave you babe. I'll never get tired of loving you. I'm not going anywhere, I won't leave you." he was rubbing circles on my back, trying to lessen my sobbing.

"Whatever happens, I'll never let you go." He tried soothing me with his words "I love you so fucking much." I told him "Please don't leave me." I said

"I would never leave you Lukey." He told me with a soothing smile on his face "You do know that I love you right?" He asked me "Yeah, I'm sorry for being a twat..." I told him "Don't worry babe." He told me sweetly "Besides, I like being with you." He pecked my lips "I treasure you." He said

"I treasure you too." I told him

"This is why I don't watch movies like that, I get too emotional..." He giggled when I said that.

"Well, it wasn't my fault. You told me you haven't watch Titanic, so I made you watch it." He said defensively "I still prefer Mean Girls over Titanic." I told him with a hint of playfulness in my tone "You're so gay." He said teasingly.

I fake gasped and said "Take that back!" I said "Never." he said while giggling.

Then I smirked at him "What's with that face?" He asked me, I started tickling Ashton "Hahaha!!! S-stop, p-please Lukey. Hahaha!!!" He was laughing so hard "O-okay, I take it back!!!" I stopped tickling Ashton, I smiled gently at him.

"You do love me, right Ash?" I asked him with a hint of sadness in my voice "Of course I do, I'll never love anyone else." he told me sweetly.

He kissed my lips gently and I was tugging on his hair "I treasure you."

He told me with fondness in his voice "I treasure you too." I giggled softly.

"You're so beautiful." I told him "I don't deserve you, you deserve someone better than me." I told him sadly, well it is the truth after all. He's the perfect definition for boyfriend, he's caring, sweet, funny, beautiful, and loyal. And I'm just someone who always hurts his feelings because I'm not there when he needs me to be.

"You know that's not true" Ashton's voice was cracking and I looked to see that tears was streaming down his face "Believe me when I say that you're perfect." He told me sadly.
