ashton:

luke:

ashton:

luke:

ashton:

what.

ash didn't get a response after that, but luke was at his door ten minutes later. they rarely texted for very long, for it usually just ended with one of them going to see the other, like now.

the two wasted no time in moving to ashton's bed, cuddling up together on the mattress.

"you're really pretty," ashton commented, admiring his boyfriend. the whole sturcture of his face was just so unique, and ashton wanted to look at it forever. the blue that his eyes were seemed to be like an amazing flower - one that you put in dyed water to make it a bright color, yet his eyes were better than that - something that you couldn't imagine unless seeing in person.

his hair seemed to always be in a perfect shape, acting as if gravity didn't exist. and the color was another thing like his eyes, where it was indescribable in the best kind of way.

his lips were a different shades of pink depending on the time. in the afternoons they seemed to be the most bright red, for luke would be biting them all day. in the mornings they were a light pink, like a pretty bow. ashton's favorite shade, though, was near the end of the day, when they would occasionally have a nice make out session. his lips would get a dark crimson red, and the swollen look made him satisfied, knowing he caused such a thing

there were so many other things about luke as well, and the feelings that he gave ashton were indescribable.

so, after a while of just lying together, luke made a bold move that made ashton's heart race. he was straddling the older lad, watching as he slid up to rest his back slightly against the headboard. both of the boys were breathing quite heavily from the simple task of being so close, though neither could hear over the sound of their own hearts in their ears.

luke's hands shakily moved along the sides of ashton's body to his gace slowly, keeping eye contact the whole time. the blonde was wearing a few simple never-take-it-off bracelets, the extra string hanging down off his wrists. their foreheads touched, eyes shutting at a leisurely pace.

the situation was quite calm, with their breaths fanning over each others softly.

luke felt like he had taken a cruise that was ashton, though he fell overboard at one point. and, sure, he got lost in the sea that was ash's heart, though the struggle to stay awake and alive was worth it. he knew he was there, in that heart, in that ocean, and he was so happy. because even though he was so cold, it provided such a warmth that it made up for everything. all the sorrow and sadness in his life was gone. though, after a while, luke found himself drowning deeper and deeper into ashton's heart. going down, down, down into the sea.

he began struggling for air, wondering if there was a way out. yet still, somehow, he was content with the situation. because next thing he knew, he was in the hospital known as ashton's brain. and at some point, luke lost a part of himself in ashton's heart which was the sea. so not only was he in his heart forever, but also in his mind. and ash was his life support. because in ashton's brain, luke was the only patient in that hospital. so, luke was his top priority. he filled every nook and cranny of ashton's mind, and the blonde knew that.

he had first hand experience, for it was the exact same for him.

luke's eyes opened, watching ashton's calm face. he pulled back the slightest bit, tilting the older boy's head up slightly, to get another perfect angle. he sketched the image into his mind, making sure it was stored in a special folder.

"may my love for you burn a hole through my heart," luke whispered, only to have ashton whisper his own quote back.

"our hearts beat so loud that the neighbors think we're fucking, while really i'm just trying to find the nerve to touch your face."

and when luke took out his phone, playing the softest playlist he had, the blonde moved off of his boyfriend, then next to him on the bed. "do you want to go on the roof?" ashton asked in a whisper, watching luke nod softly.

ashton's roof was flat, making for the perfect platform. luke slid his phone in his pocket, the music still playing as ashton picked up a blanket. they were soon climbing up from ashton's window to the roof, both helping each other, making sure they didn't fall.

and when they finally got up there, luke was the first to lay down. ashton was soon after, spreading the blanket over both of their bodies. they weren't too close together. in fact, they were both on their backs, simply next to each other, looking up at the stars.

a smile spread on luke's face as a specific song started playing, singing quietly along with the lyrics "look at the stars," he strted, glancing over to ashton, he was staring up at the night sky. "look how they shine for you,"

and with that, ashton closed his eyes. he wanted to make sure that this memory was saved and lived, and taking a small break from simply looking was a good way to do that.

instead, he was just there. just alive with luke.

and they didn't speak, because they didn't need words.

not one, not three, not a thousand.

all they needed was each other.

and as cheesy as it sounded, it was true.

luke needed to know that he was in ashton's heart.

and ashton needed to know he was in luke's mind.

both of which were actually true.

so they were alive.

because there's a difference between living and being alive.

to live is to be on the earth, simply just there, with small purposes.

to be alive was to matter more than anyone else to someone. to be their true love.

luke found that in ashton.

and ashton found that in luke.

so together, they were alive.
