Long Way Home [Lashton bxb] ✔️

THE WINTER [CHAP.39]

I woke up with a loud knock on the door. I open my eyes and blinked multiple times to adjust the lights. I shook Luke body and telling him to wake up.

"Lukey c' mon, someone is banging the door."

"Just open it." He mumbled grumpily.

"Loosen your grip then, I barely moving inside your arms." He loosened his grip but also sit up.

"What time?"

"10," I said looking at his phone.

The banging sounds keep continue and we grouchily open it.

"Morning my gay babies, do you mind helping me make some breakfast?" Mum El asked cheerfully while I lean into Luke's chest for support.

"Can't we do that later? I'm still sleepy." He said to his mum.

"Nah, I wanna do that now, and both of you please be a lovely boy for me and help me now. I know nothing about this house."

"You go, Ash, it's your home," Luke said pushing me slowly.

"I need you my boy, not just my other son."

Luke grumpily grabbed my hands and pulling me downstairs with his mum following behind.

"So you guys back together I guess?" his mum asked cocking her eyebrows playfully. I blush at her question and Luke turns around with a big grin on his face.

"I know for sure that my baby will never ever go straight, oh how proud I am." She said then washed her hand in the sink.

"What do you wanna eat by the way?" I asked as I wash my hand in the sink.

"Just something simple, I don't want to make you get grumpier than you already are." She said sweetly.

"I'm sorry about my attitude."

"It's okay, you're just tired and I know that you got home late because this devil across me, so I don't blame you."

"I did it for him, you can't blame me, mum."

"Shut up Lucifer, I'm not talking to you. Go help that boy and put your grubby hands in use."

He walked towards me like a zombie and I mumble a 'hey'. He just kissed my cheek as the answer and helped me make some toast and French fries.

I served it on the table while Luke did the dishes. Not long after he's done with the dishes, his dad and sister come to the dining room and we ate in silence.

"What are we gonna do?" I asked them.

"I don't know with you guys but I have some e-mails to send and I'll just stay home." Dad J said.

"I'm staying with him. I wanna make some calls by the way."

"What about you, Ai?" Luke asked.

"I have nothing to do."

"What do you guys think about painting a room?" I asked.

"Sounds cool, what room by the way?" Ai asked me.

"The storage room, I wanna make some art on the walls and I know for sure you both are really good with arts."

"Sure, that's a lot of fun for me," Ai said cheering loudly.

"Lu, are you okay?" He was a bit off since we woke up.

"Yeah, I'm just... tired. Yeah, tired, excuse me by the way." He said then leaves the table. The three of them gave me a questioning look so I leave the room and follow him upstairs. He was buried under the cover and facing the wall.

"Honey, you okay?" I asked as I took a seat beside him.

"'M fine just tired."

"Luke I know you much better than this, so I'm not buying your lies." I slowly rolled him around and so he was facing me.

He nuzzled his face to my side and hugged my waist.

"C' mon talk to me." I push him a little and slid in beside him. He rested his head on my chest and said nothing.

"'M scared."

"About what?"

"Last night and our broken promise"

"You know I didn't mean what I said right?" I asked and he kept quiet.

"Lukey, there's no way in this earth or even hell or heaven I'd hate you. And those things I've said is far away from true."

"Were you saying yes just because I and my family stay here for a holiday? And then when we go back you'll dumb me straight after?"

"Noooo, I wouldn't do that to you. You know that even when I was in that relationshit with that boy toy I still love you, and yesterday when you ask me again, why would I say no? I still love you, like really 'really' love you and probably in love with you so why would you think I'm lying when I say yes?"

"You do?" He asked looking up at me with hopeful eyes. I peck his lips and poke his nose with my finger.

"You're so silly if you think I'm lying."

"'M sorry."

"It's 'kay. Just talk it out and we can figure things out together. And now ssup with our broken promise?"

"How if we broke it again?"

"Luke, if a promised is already broken, there's no possibility to call it a promise again. And that means we have to grow up and make another promise that we really sure we can keep them. I won't leave again unless you ask me to."

"I'll never ask you to leave. As cheesy as this sound like I don't want to imagine how's my life will be without you in it."

"Things clear then."

"I'm sorry for being so silly." He said nuzzling his hair on my neck. I squirmed beneath him and push him a little.

"That's tickling stop it." He stops his movement and kissed my lips properly.

"I love you Ashy."

"I love you, Lulu. Now let's start the work." I said trying to sit up. He straddled me and hugged me like a leech.

"Don't wanna get up. Wanna hold you close."

"Carry me, then you can hold me close and we can get our works done." I thought he'd hit my head or something, but he just simply agree and sit in front of me. I got on his back and we make our way downstairs.

The three of them giving us a confused look and I just nodded my head signing everything's fine.

We did the painting and the room is done in 3hours. It's just random painting that I really love and the three of us was covered in paint now. I feel like we're in a pride parade because we look like a rainbow. We threw our painted clothes to the dirty-clothes-basket and change into a comfy one.

"I'll take a nap, see you boys later," Ailouzha said then disappear into her room.

"What are we gonna do?"

"Fanboying over fanfic sounds nice isn't it?" I asked and he giggled. We read fanfic and cooed over it. I did cry at some chapters and he comforts me but then we read it again.

Lunch went pretty well too, I taught his mum to cook some traditional food, and then she called my aunt telling her everything we've done. Dinner went just like lunch just without the calling thing. And now we're already on the bed, cuddling, and ready to sleep.

"I can't sleep," I said mumbling into his chest.

"Turn around. I'll spoon you." He said as he untangled his legs from mine. I did as I told and face the walls. He spooned me and kept massaging my stomach. He kissed the top of my head now and then and mumbled some sweet nothing until I got sleepy. I turn my face a little a peck his lips before mumbling the 'I love you's. He replies the words and telling me to close my eyes and said that he'll keep spooning me until I wake up.
