Tell Me I'm Pretty [Lashton AU]

Chapter 1

You see, Luke did feel guilty about insulting Ashton. He knew it was rude and wrong to make fun of his clothing like that. However, he didn't mean to hurt his feelings. He was just grown and raised to believe it was wrong. That a boy wearing a dress is not allowed in the world.

It wasn't like he personally didn't accept it. It's more like his family doesn't and Luke was told this was not normal. Dresses were for girls and pants were for boys. But, then he laid down that night and he thought it over. He spent hours trying to understand why it was considered wrong.

Because, girls are allowed to wear pants now. It's not considered wrong anymore and nowadays, more girls wear and own more pants than they do dresses. He was really confused as he stayed up late, trying to find what was wrong with the picture of a guy in a dress compared to a girl wearing pants.

Maybe it looked weird because he's never seen it before. Sort of like how some people have never seen two boys kissing and they weren't use to it. He was born in a world where girls were allowed to wear pants. But, he's never experienced a guy in a dress until he met Ashton Irwin.

As Luke stayed up more and more, he knew what he did was wrong and he couldn't help it when he told himself not to apologize. Because, he shouldn't have to, right? He didn't do anything wrong. He was just raised a certain way and he shouldn't say sorry for that. He knew what he did was rude, but not wrong in his mind.

Michael said he was bullying Ashton, but he wasn't. Was he? He never insulted Ashton. He never called him ugly or a bitch or anything. He just said it was weird that he wore girl shorts. And he wasn't wrong. It was abnormal to see and Ashton put himself up to that by walking around the school wearing dresses and skirts like some chick.

In the morning, Luke woke up with a sigh as he saw Calum texted that he's not picking his ass up. He now knew that he was going to have to speak to his friends. They were obviously still mad at him and he didn't mean to hurt their feelings. He was just trying to voice his opinion on what he found wrong.

Luke grumbled as he got up, grabbing his phone and texted his brother asking if he could be driven to school. Jack replied and said sure, having lived only down the street. Ben lived in Britain, going to school there and so he wasn't around to drive him. Luke wished he had a car, but his parents always said it was too expensive and he doesn't have a license yet anyways.

The blonde got up and he decided it was time to get dressed. In the right clothes. He grabbed some skinny jeans (No, they weren't girl skinny jeans) and then put on a checkered red and black button-up with a leather jacket. Dressing like a proper man. He didn't see why Ashton was so opposed to this.

Luke went to the bathroom and he fixed up his quiff, grinning as he looked at his appearance. He wasn't happy with some of the acne he had and pouted. Luke just sighed, brushing his teeth. Real men don't care about a small pimple. They proudly show off their bad hygiene apparently.

After he was done, Luke went downstairs and saw his mum was drinking some coffee and rubbing his eyes sleepily. She looked at him with a small grin and waved, mumbling a 'morning'. Luke just nodded and he saw Jack texted he was outside. So, he said bye to his mum quickly and rushed outside, hopping in the car.

Once Jack pulled out of the driveway, Luke went on instagram and was annoyed when he saw Ashton taking selfies and somehow he had like, tons of likes. He managed to get fifty thousand followers and they're very active. Only cause he uses good filters and shows his cute outfits that girls seem to enjoy. Plus, he's a guy in a skirt. Of course he's going to get attention.

This is why Luke thinks he's an attention whore. He could just be normal and not post pictures of himself in short shorts and a sweater. But, no. He has to show off his cross dressing and become popular on instagram with his annoying username 'toxic.ash.oohlala.'
