•Luke's POV•
I woke up with Ashton next to me, I looked over and kissed his forehead. He was hugging me, I knew I couldn't move or I would wake him up. I searched around with my hand for my phone. I found it, I looked at the screen. It was 12:00 PM we slept in, not that it was a big deal. Ashton snuggled against my arm, he knocked my phone out of my hands.
"It's to bright." He said, exhaustion in his voice.
I laughed kissing him.
" Ashton it's time to get up." I said looking at the ceiling.
He let out an sigh, he sat up. He got up, and walked out of my room. I followed him, to the kitchen. He sat in the bar stool, I did the same. I rested my head on his shoulder.
"Oh hey lover boys." My mom said walking in the room.
I rolled my eyes, Ashton smiled. She walked to the corner, looking at us. As soon as she went to speak the phone rang. She walked over, picking up the phone.
"Hello?" She said concerning.
"Oh yes, I will tell them." She said sadly.
She walked over in front of me and Ashton's
"Guys, your friends Melissa and Riley, they uh got in car crash." She said looking down.
Ashton looked up, he started breathing heavily.
I didn't know how to feel, the people who where my best friends, and the people who bullied us for being gay, now they could be...dead. I didn't know if I should go to the hospital or I didn't know. Tomorrow was Monday so I didn't know if I should wait until school.

~Monday~Luke's POV~
I woke with Ashton next to me, again. I figured he would be living with us for now. I realized Ashton wouldn't fit into any of my clothes...
"Babe I'm sorry, after school we can go to your house and get your stuff." I said.
He nodded, I felt bad. Ashton had to wear his clothes  from yesterday. Once we got to school, everyone was concerned. Not going to lie I was concerned, if they where ok. Not the fact that we where friends or anything, in that matter I hated her. Me and Ashton held hands while walking to social studies. We walked in to seeing Michael and Calum crying like little girls. I rolled my eyes, Ashton seen me.
"Babe you have to be nice, what would you do if that was me?" He said looking at me.
"Irrelevant I would never let you be in a situation where you could get in a car crash." I said looking back, knowing I turned the conversation back on him.
He rolled his eyes, while sitting in his chair next to Michael.
"Hey, listen I'm truly sorry on what happened." I said to Calum.
"Why are your being nice to me? I was so mean to you." He said.
"Well even though you where I forgive you. Everyone  deserves a second chance." I said smiling.
He nodded while looking at the board. Throughout class Calum and Michael kept whispering to each other. After class Michael and Calum walked up to my locker.
"Look man I'm sorry we where mean to you, you didn't deserve it." Michael said.
"We cool?" Calum said.
I shook my head while they walked away. Ashton walked  up to me.
"What was that about?" He said smiling.
"They where just saying sorry." I said smiling back.
Me and Ashton went along our day. At lunch Calum and Michael sat with us, we laughed and joked. When school was over me and Ashton headed to the park, we sat on swings. We talked about life, and other things. I held his hand while we walked back to "his house". We walked in, his mom wasn't home. He grabbed a bunch of clothes and put them in a suitcase and we started walking to my house. When we got to our house, he put the suitcase in my room and then sat on the couch. I sat next to him, I grabbed the remote, Finding Nemo started playing. I turned the Chanel. Not again, it seemed every time that stupid movie was in something bad happend. I'm not taking any chances.
