Falling apart (Luke Hemmings/Ashton Irwin)

09

"Happy Birthday!" I yell, running into Lukes room and diving on his bed "You're nineteen!"

"And you're annoying" Luke chuckles, hugging me. I laugh and hand him his present.

It's been two weeks since I last saw ash and that was the night we 'did it'. I still can't get over it, whenever I think about it I smile.

"What are you thinking about?" Luke asks "You're grinning like a Cheshire cat"

"Oh nothing" I say. Mum walks in holding breakfast and I try to take some bacon but mum slaps my hand away. I give Luke the puppy dog eyes when mum leaves and he passes me a pancake and some bacon. I giggle and take them "Best big brother"

"Best little sister"

-

"-Happy birthday too you!" Everyone sings as mum places the cake down. Luke takes my hand and looks at me.

"How we used to do it?" He asks. I giggle and nod and we both lean over and blow the candles out together. Everyone cheers and when mums cutting up the cake I walk over to Lauren and hand her a gift bag.

"Give it to ash please, and tell him I'm sorry I couldn't see him on his birthday but I'll see him soon, and please don't tell your mum" I beg.

"It's alright Li, I've got this one covered for you, Mum's taking Harry to Melbourne for two weeks, I'm apparently staying at home but I'm secretly going to my friends house, you are sleeping around my house having a sleepover with me and Ashton is staying at Michaels. It's all worked out, you and Ashton will have the house to yourself for two weeks" She explains. I hug her and she laughs.

"You are literally the best" I say "Thank you"

"No problem" She smiles.

-

"Alright mom, I'll see you soon" I say, hugging her and dragging my suitcase out to my car.

"Say Hi to Lauren for me, and if you see Anne tel her I said hi" Mum says. I nod and jump into my car, driving down the street towards Ashtons house.

Once I get there I get out and grab my case. I knock on the door and Lauren answers, pulling me inside before looking around outside and shutting the door. She hugs me then motions downstairs.

"He's been in the basement all morning" Lauren sighs "I'll see you soon, have fun, but not to much" I laugh and shut the door before hearing the drums start. I creep down stairs and sit on the last step watching Ashton drum to a familiar song, it's American idiot.

The way his muscles flex when he huts the drum, and he hits it with such aggressiveness.

"Hey" I say, once he's stopped. He jumps slightly then looks over at me. I stand up and walk behind him, noticing he's shirtless. I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss his shoulders "I missed you"

"I got your present" He says "Thanks for the new drumsticks, new T-shirts with no holes and a hot topic voucher"

"It's fine" I laugh "I'm glad you're like my brother or I'd have no idea what to get you"

"What'd you get Luke?" He asks.

"Me and Mum got him a new guitar and then I got him T-shirts and hot topic voucher" I laugh "So the same"

"I really have missed you" he says. I rub my face against his toned back and kiss his shoulder blade "I love you?"

"Make love to me?"

"Gladly baby"
