Luke's POV:

I was in Science class, the class room was chilled, but Ashton came in very red faced. Ash came rushing in, breathlessly. Muttering a sorry to the teacher.

"Mr. Irwin, why are you late on the first day?" our old bald, with round glasses asked the small framed timid boy. Ashton shrugged his shoulders, finding a seat near the back. Everyone stared at him. They went slowly back to the teacher Mr. Beauro talking about things we'd need to know for the school year.

I zoned out and focused on the brown eyed beauty. He played with his black sweater sleeves pulling them almost to the tip of his fingers. He bit the inside of his cheek every so often. He didn't really seem to be listening to Mr. Beauro going through class rules. I looked up to the teacher and all I heard was what the topic is, and went back to concentrating on Ash.

He looked at me, and we made eye contact. My face became hot and my chest tightened immediately, I looked away, breathing heavy. He saw me staring? Oh my god. What do I do?

I whispered over to Ashton, I was very curious about that girl he was with, and that if they were dating?

"What is that girl you were with, what is her name?" I said quietly. He looked over at me whispering a small faint word.

"Riley." After he quickly added.

"Why?" Looking over at me questionable. I just nodded, I've seen her around before, but never really knew her on a personal level.

"Work quietly on your own." Mr. Beauro said, walking to his desk. He knew no one would really work, but gave it a shot.

"Hey, I think you should check or call Michael, after school today, I would, but I have to see the Principal after school." Ashton simply stated without looking at me. I went to protest and ask, but Ashton refused to look at me. I couldn't figure out why.

"Ashton?" I questioned. He gave me a look of annoyance, followed by a heavy sigh. Did I do something wrong? But what? Finally Ashton spoke in a more angry tone.

"Just check on your friend, would you?" I sat shocked at this, but why, does this have to do with earlier? Chad didn't go back did he, or did maybe Ashton and that girl talk to Michael? That's stupid to think, no one, but Calum, me and Chad and his group know about what Chad does. They would never say anything and of course, Michael pretends it never happened, and shoves it so far away and deep down.

"What the 'hell' Ashton, why?" I said much louder than expected while standing up, earning me glares from all around the room, and my eyes shifted to Mr. Beauro, who had a red face, was very angry and he took a deep breath before he shouted.

"Mr. Hemmings, take a seat now, and you have detention after school." He shouted filling the room, with a wave of fear passing through me. I can't have detention, Jack would kill me, and mom would let him.

"But Sir-----" I tried to protest, not my smartest idea.

"No 'but's' Luke, and since you decided to continue to keep talking after such a horrid word and distracting my class, I expect to see you and Mr. Irwin on this Saturdays detention, understood." He said more calm, even though my punishment got worse, and I was dragging someone with me. Which made my heart sink, and me feel guilty and horrible.

My gaze fell to Ashton, who was freaking out, red faced, his brown eyes slipped into pure sadness, while his hand clenched up beneath the desk.

"Sir, that's not fair." Ashton tried, but Mr. Beauro silenced Ashton with the raise of his hand.
