~ So this was one of the first one-shot ideas I actually wrote down and I thought now would be a good time to actually write it, so I did. It's pretty short but yeah. Oh and if you haven't, remember to check out my new Cashton one-shot book calles No Sound Without Silence! 

Dedicated to @mxkeuspocus because I really really like you and yeah, you're super cool and ily :) xx /M ~ 

“Come on come on come on!” Luke isn’t even trying to hide his excitement as he pulls Michael and Calum towards the arcade. Ashton, who’s trailing behind and tries to memorise the map of the amusement park at the same time as he’s keeping an eye on the younger boys, laughs and follows them. Their school decided to take both of their years, the one Ashton’s in and the one the other three are in, to an amusement park a few miles outside Sydney and they’re all loving it. Luke, who normally hates getting up early for school, has been up since four and is as happy as a child on Christmas.

They get to the arcade and Michael immediately gets out of Luke’s grip and walks over to a pinball machine, Calum following him. Luke looks over at Ashton, who’s standing with his hands in his pockets already watching the younger boy, Luke then points at a air hockey table and Ashton shrugs, walking over to it and inserting a coin. Luke hurries over to him, taking his place on the other side of the table, and the game is on. It ends too soon for Luke’s liking and it doesn’t get better by the fact that Ashton won. He’s just about to ask for a rematch when something catches his attention and he groans. Calum has grabbed Michael’s arms and are now pressing him against the pinball machine, one hand slowly making it’s way up under Michael’s shirt as they’re making out. The pair have been together for a couple weeks now and they seem unable to keep their hands off each other, but Luke doesn’t really mind. Ever since they got together he’s been spending more time with Ashton and he really likes the older boy. Before that happened Luke mainly hung out with Michael since they were closer, while Calum and Ashton spent a lot of time together, if they weren’t together all four.

“Really guys? Really?” Ashton walks over, grabbing Calum’s shirt and pulling him away from the pink haired boy under him. Michael whines and reaches out to pull Calum back but Ashton steps in between them. “there are kids here.” he says, giving Calum a slap in the back of the head. “I don’t care about what you two do when you’re on your own, but you two having sex in public is nothing I want to witness.”

“You sure about that Ashton?” Michael asks, winking.

“positive.”

“What should we do now?” Calum asks as they’re leaving the arcade an hour later. He grabs Michael’s hand, intertwining their fingers, and Luke can’t help but feel a little jealous. He wants that too, he wants to make out in public places, he wants to hold hands and cuddle and be all cute and coupley with someone.

“let’s go for lunch.” he suggests, regretting he skipped breakfast in order to get to school as soon as possible this morning. The others agree and fifteen minutes later they’re sitting on a bench outside a fast food restaurant. They’re not talking much, all four of them too busy eating to be bothered with holding a conversation, and it doesn’t take long before they’ve all finished their burgers.

“Luke remember to drink too, you’ll get dehydrated if you don’t and we don’t need you passing out in this heat.” Calum says, handing Luke his drink. Luke mutters something about not being a baby but does as he’s told. Michael gatherers their garbage and goes to throw it away as the others finishes their meals. He’s on his way back to them when someone calls out, getting everyone’s attention.

“Hey Michael, we found some of your hair.” it’s one of the boys from Ashton’s year, Luke’s pretty sure he’s one of the players on the school’s football team, and before Michael gets the chance to answer he places a cone of fairy floss on his head before quickly turning around and running back to his friends, who are almost doubled over with laughter. Michael stays frozen where he is and Luke can tell he’s panicking, because if there’s one thing Michael hates it’s messes, and now he’s got sticky, pink sugar everywhere, sugar that’s slowly melting.

“no no no baby don’t cry.” Calum gets up and walks over to his boyfriend, carefully trying to get rid of as much as possible without making things worse. “shh, it’s okay, it’s okay kitten.” Luke knows he’s not supposed to hear the soft words Calum’s whispering but he really can’t help it.

“We should uh...get a teacher or something.” he says, awkwardly scratching his neck. “like, so they’ll get in trouble.”

“No, no there’s no point.” Calum pulls the slightly shorter boy in for a hug, letting his rest his head on his shoulder and ignoring the fact that he’s getting fairy floss on his clothes and neck. “I’ll take him home and we’ll get this shit out of his hair, so can you just tell a teacher we left if you see someone?”

“Yeah, ‘course.” Ashton nods and Calum lets go of Michael, taking his hand and starting to walk towards the exit. “okay, so they’ll be fine, they’ll go home and get that shit out and then they’ll have sex. Nothing we need to worry about.” Luke nods, knowing Ashton’s right, and looks around. There’s still a few people staring at them but it doesn’t really bother him.

“So where to now?”

~

“Okay so there’s only one ride left now.” Luke says, staring up at the huge roller coaster ahead of them. “you ready?” Ashton nods, even though it’s obvious he’s terrified, and they walks over to the line. It only takes a few minutes for them to get inside the house on which the ride is built and they’re stuck in a very narrow staircase. As much as he loves roller coasters, there’s still one thing Luke absolutely hates about them. Waiting in line. For as long as he can remember he’s been extremely claustrophobic and being pushed forward by strangers just to get pushed back scares him, makes him feel extremely trapped and stressed. Today is no exception and in the dark, tight space he can feel his heart pick up the pace, pounding against his ribcage. Ashton notices this as well, even though he’s behind the younger boy, He steps closer, carefully wrapping an arm around Luke’s waist while using his other hand to draw patterns on his back. Luke visibly relaxes and his breathing goes back to normal, but they then move forward again and finds themselves trapped between an extremely overweight man in his fifties and a group of foreign tourists. Ashton feel Luke tense up again and gets on his tippy toes, pressing a soft kiss to Luke’s neck. This surprises Luke and he turns around, somehow managing to trade places with Ashton. The older finds this even better, since he now can stand with his back to the tourists and can stay closer to Luke, trusting that the taller boy will make sure they move forward. He wraps his hands around Luke’s waist again before going back to softly kissing the pale skin above his t-shirt.

“You know Luke, I really really like you.” he whispers, barely audible over the noise from the rest of the people waiting for their turn to go on the ride. Luke doesn’t answer, instead he turns Ashton’s face upwards, connecting their lips. He completely forgets about the tight space, about the slowly moving line of people and about his claustrophobia, and everything is just Ashton, Ashton, Ashton. It isn’t until they’re about to get on the ride he’s brought back to reality by Ashton squeezing his hand, looking at him with wide, scared eyes.

“it’ll be over in a minute.” Luke promises, pressing a quick kiss to Ashton’s forehead before grabbing his hand, knowing it’s his turn to make Ashton feel better now.
