It was the second half of my shift at the DVD store and I was restocking DVD's that had been rented out.

I had two copies of 'The Delievery Man' to put back on the new releases, and then I had to restock some other movies.

I was bending down as I heard another customer walk in. "I'll be with you in a minute", I said not looking at the customer.

"No it's fine, I like the view from this way", The raspy voice replied.

I was instantly disgusted at his comment and turned around. "Excuse me, that is rude-oh, hey", I said looking at the beautiful boy.

"Hey, I like the view of your ass, I could do many things to it as well", He smirked.

I didn't say anything, I was in shock at how beautiful this boy was. He had dirty blonde hair that was styled into a quiff.

His eyes were an adorable blue, and he had the longest legs you could ever find.

But the thing that attracted me the most, was his tattoos and piercings. I'm not usually attracted to guys with tattoos and piercings, but the blonde's made him even more beautiful.

He was wearing a short-sleeve tee, so I could see the full-sleeve tattoo on his left arm, and I could see other little tattoos as well.

I saw his black eyebrow piercing and a silver nose stud, as well as a black lip ring too. I also noticed he had two silver studs in each ear as well.

"I, umm..., I-I like your tattoos", I said without thinking.

He smiled. "Thanks, I like your dimples", He complimented.

"C-Can I help you choose movie or?...", I asked not knowing what else to say.

He shook his head. "No, I just came in here to buy a bag of popcorn and candy-floss".

"You know there's a supermarket down the road, aye?", I smiled.

"Yeah, but they're too expensive, so I buy my junk food from in here", He replied. "Who the fuck would buy a bag of popcorn for two dollars twenty?".

"We actually sell it for three dollars", I said.

He froze. "Oh", He said. "Well, at least there's a cute employee that works here, that's a positive".

I blushed. "I guess so".

He grabbed a bag of popcorn and candy-floss, then put it on the counter.

"I'm buying these because of you, cutie", He winked.

I walked behind the counter and scanned the food. "Thanks?", I replied.

"That will be...five dollars, twenty cents".

He handed me the money and I put it in the cash register.

"By the way, I'm Luke", He introduced himself and held out his hand for me to shake.

I shook his hand. "I'm Ashton", I smiled.

"Ashton", He repeated. "That's such a hot name".

"Not as much as Luke is", I smirked.

"Are you trying to flirt with me, Ashton?", He asked.

"No, you're the one who's flirting with me".

"No I'm not...yeah, actually I am", He said and I let out a small laugh.

"Not to be rude, Luke...but, your flirting sucks".

"Not as much as I do", He smirked and winked.

I blushed. "I'm going to pretend like you didn't say that"

He smiled as another customer walked in. "I need to get back to work", I said.

"Can I at least get your number?", He asked.

I thought about it for a while. "Nah, you need to try harder than that", I smirked.

He sighed. "Fine, but I will be back tomorrow".

"I don't work Saturday's, only Monday's and Friday's", I said.

"Well, I'll see you around, cutie", He smiled.

"Alright, bye", I waved.

"Bye, Ash", He said as he walked out the door.

There's something about that boy, that attracted me as soon as I laid eyes on him, he's just...perfection.

-

"Calum, get out of my bed!", I groaned as Calum was lying in my bed.

"No, I'm tired", He closed his eyes and snuggled into my blankets.

"Fine", I sighed.

He patted the spot next to him in the bed. "Come cuddle with me?", He pouted.

I nodded and got into bed, cuddling into Calum's side. You're probably thinking that it's a little weird that we are cuddling in bed.

But it's not. Me and Calum have known each other since we were 4 years old, and we've always been really close.

"Hey, Calum?", I spoke up.

"Yeah?", He replied.

"Do you know Luke?", I asked.

Calum sat up and looked at me. "Luke, who?".

"I don't know his last name, but he has tattoos, piercings and he's really hot, also-"

"Luke Hemmings", Calum cut me off.

I nodded. "Yeah, maybe", I smiled at the thought of the handsome boy.

"How do you know him?", Calum asked me.

"He came into the DVD store today, and we started talking, he seems really cool".

Calum shook his head. "No Ashton, don't get involved with Luke, he's bad news", He said.

"What do you mean 'bad news'?", I asked.

"He's always in trouble", Calum replied. "He shoplifts, tags buildings, and once he set a hedge on fire and burnt down someone's garden shed".

"How do you know?", I said in disbelief. Luke may look like a bad ass, but I doubt he would ever do those things.

Calum sighed. "I don't, its what I've heard".

"Exactly! You don't know. Don't judge him just because of what other people say about him, you obviously haven't met him before".

"No, I haven't met him, and I don't plan to either", Calum said.

"Well, for your information, Calum. I only met Luke today for about five minutes, and I think he's perfect", I replied.

Calum looked at me. "Do you...like him? As in, you have a crush on him?", He asked.

I scoffed. "What...no! I've only known him for five minutes, there's no way I can have a crush on him already".

"That's good", Calum smiled. "Because, I don't wanna see you get hurt".

I smiled and didn't say anything. I won't get hurt, and I don't even know if Luke is gay or whatever? I know he was flirting with me at work, but he might just be a flirt in general?

And, I doubt Luke is always in trouble like that. He seems so sweet, even though he may look like a bad ass...

Short chapter. I'm trying to make them longer.
