Verboten [lashton]

[before reading]

1. This is my story, my creation, so please don't steal it or copy my ideas. I've put a lot of thought into writing this, and I took a long time planning it out, so it wouldn't be fair for you to just use it for your own personal gain. Please have some respect for how much effort I've put into this, thank you.

2. Now that that formality's passed, hey! I'm really, really excited for this story, and as you can see this account is new to Wattpad, but that doesn't mean I don't know what I'm doing, or that I haven't had experience. I'll end that thought there.

3. Cover made by the amazing and beautiful @wonderfulsause51 (: thank you so much!

4. I have a beta/editor for this story, and you can find her at @ohsoscandalous. She's one of my closest friends and is basically just awesome in general, so please go check her out, she'd appreciate it tons, thank you!

5. One of my biggest inspirations on Wattpad is @wonderfulsause51, and I've read a lot of her work so a small part of her amazing style of writing has somehow snuck into mine (although my writing is nowhere near as good as hers, she's absolutely incredible). For this, I give her credit, and if you want to read some super epic Lashton fan fiction, check out her story Coming Up For Air. Don't forget to follow her and read her other works, you won't regret it :)

6. A quick warning: smut is planned at some point in this story. I apologise if this makes you uncomfortable or you don't want to read this. I will make sure the smut is possible to skip if you don't want to read it. It's not just random; the smut is actually really important to the plot and the development of Ashton and Luke's relationship. If it wasn't for the smut, the story wouldn't work properly. It's not there just because I want to put it there. It doesn't necessarily need to happen, but it makes the story better and better developed if it is there. Don't worry, there'll be fluff too.

7. Sømetimes mÿ wørds wìll løok lîke thìs bc ì dønt wãnt tø gėt R ratėd. Sorry if this is annoying.

8. And finally (sorry for this long, boring foreword): disclaimer; this story will contain swearing, underage consumption of alcohol, some harassment, themes of homosexuality and illegal sėxual advances with a minor. Also, I do not own any members of 5 Seconds Of Summer, nor do I believe that Luke and Ashton are in any way in a relationship, nor do I think that they should be.

Okay, enjoy reading! I really hope this story turns out as good as I envision it, and I hope everyone who reads it likes it. Thank you!
