Hospital Walls || l.h.+a.i. [lashton boyxboy]

Chapter 6

Ashton's POV :

My mom told him about Mr and Mrs Hemmings after Mrs Hemmings, Liz, left with her two older sons Jack and Ben.

Nobody knows why she left Luke at home but his dad probably didn't let him go. I slowly walked down the stairs as this cry never left my mind. It sounded so painful but at the same time it sounded like nothing special was happening. I reached the living room and saw my mom sitting on the couch watching tv. I walked over to her and sat next to her. She looked over to me and smiled.

"Hey honey, are you okay?" My mind was blowing up from possible things that could've happened in this moment right next door.

"Mom, do you talk to Mr Hemmings sometimes?" I ignored her question and just blankly stared at her. Mom furrowed an eyebrow and nodded then.

"Yes, he's a really nice man. Why do you ask?" Nothing made sense right now.

Does he really hit Luke?

He could possibly just fell down the stairs or something, I thought.

"Why is Luke still with him?" My mom sighed at my question because I asked exactly the same thing over and over when I was younger and kind of liked him.

"I told you, Ashton. I don't know but probably because he's the only son Mr Hemmings has left." She smiled softly and I looked at the ground. I didn't like talking about bad things.

"Does he hit him?" My mom frowned. She looked kind of shocked and confused at the same time.

"Ashton! He'd never do something like that! How could you think that?" Her voice became louder and I felt myself sink into the couch.

"I'm sorry, it's just.. I always hear those noises like, screams and cries, and they sound really painful and then you told ne that Mr Hemmings used to hit his wife and- I'm sorry, mom. I didn't want to bother you." I stood up as my phone vibrated and there was a notification from twitter.

Luke Hemmings sent you an inquire.

I sighed and thought about it.

What if he tries to get help like that?

But then there's this thing he did and I don't want something like that to happen again.

Eventually I went for the first option and accepted. Almost immediately I got a direct message by him.

Luke Hemmings: Thank you

I didn't know what that was for so I didn't answer. I thought that maybe he'd send another message but he didn't. I stared at his profile picture and thought about what happened before he did that thing.

I was a chirpy kid and when I saw Luke for the first time something in my stomach made a backflip and I couldn't stop staring at him. Over the weeks I learned to like Luke more and more and I probably had the biggest crush on him you could think of. I used to walk up to him and start conversations which mostly ended really awkward because I didn't know what to say. I told Michael and Renai about my crush and they tried to help me but then Luke told everyone I 'touched his butt' and that I'd be a disgusting faggot. I didn't do anything. Everything was ruined and I don't even know why Mike, Renai and Isaac are still my friends but now I know that I'll never loose them. After that Luke came up to me a few times and tried to talk to me but I always showed him how much I hated him since then. Now I'd just really like to know if what I thought was real.

My phone lay next to my head as I waited for another message.

I heard a slight knock on my door and when it opened Harry stuck his head into my room and I could see his eyes were a bit watery.

"Hey buddy, what's wrong?" He came into my room and just stood there with his plush dog, Timmy.

"I had a really bad nightmare.." He sniffled and wiped his eyes.

"Come here, you can sleep here tonight if you want to." I smiled at my younger brother as he climbed into my bed and laid beside me, snuggling his face into my chest.

"Are you okay, Ash?" He looked up to me and I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"Yeah, I am, why do you ask?" My fingers carded through his messy hair and he sniffled again.

"In my dream Lauren, you and I were chased by a really big monster and he caught you and wanted to eat you!" Harry looked really scared. I kissed his forehead and cuddled him.

"I'm fine, buddy. And Lauren's fine as well. There is no monster." He nodded and closed his eyes.

"Good night, Ash." He whispered.

"Good night, buddy, I love you." I whispered back before we both fell asleep underneath the same sky.
