He Noticed Me (A Lashton Fanfiction)

Chapter 3

OK i am back from my summer holiday so here's Chapter 3. Enjoy :D

After Ashton had his little meeting with a strange, quiet, blonde, boy named Luke, he walked home with that boy on his mind. Thinking about the way he found Luke, on the ground, groaning in pain while clutching his stomach, with his eyes screwed shut. Ashton felt sorry for the boy. He wondered who did that to Luke. Even thought Ashton didn't know who he was, until that afternoon, he still cared. That is the kind of person Ashton is, always trying to help people and look out for them.

What a day, he thought as he walked up the steps to his house.

The boy heard thumping footsteps, fast walking loudly to the door. It was an older than usual house and it shook when somebody somebody walked stompily in it, which was always considering he had two loud younger siblings who were always running around the house. The wooden door swung open just as Ashton was about to open it himself. 

A familiar face appeared, that wore a worried expression on it. "Where have you been", Ashtons mother said, voice slightly raised.

"So sorry mum i can explain".

"You better, hurry up and get inside, you know you're supposed to come home from school before 3:30, it's now 4", She said in a obvious, matter of fact tone. 

 "I would've thought the school would have rang", Ashton said frowning, as he walked into the house, passing his mother and practically falling onto the couch.

"Rang for what!", His mum replied also frowning along with Ashton.

"Well I should probably tell you".

"Shut up Ashton and tell me what on earth you're talking abo- ohhh you met a GIRL", The boy's mum said rolling her eyes impatiently, then clasped her hands together, bringing them to her mouth in excitement.

"Mum no, I didn't meet a girl, I went to go to music for the last period and i was slightly late", Ashton paused, taking a breath and seeing the facial expression on his mother's face, which was an unsurprised one. Ashton carried on with his story, ignoring the facial expression she was giving Ashton, "There was a note on the door, saying to go to another class, which happened to be all the way down the other end of the school. I went there and was locked. So I went to the office to see where I was supposed to go, which was my normal class in the first place. So I walked all the way back there again and the teacher yelled at me", Ashton said the last sentence in a whiney voice and his mum rolled her eyes at him once again. Ashton glared at her and said, "Anyway I was a half an hour late, and yeahh, I kinda got an after school detention. Ashton finished and rubbed the back of his neck then looked at his mother.

"You idiot, you should have looked into the classroom first".

Ashton hmphed at his mothers mean-ness and walked stompily up stairs to his room.

Ms. Irwin let out a small laugh at her sons reaction and continued to make Spaghetti Bolognese for their dinner. 

Ashton slammed his bedroom door slightly louder than he expected, he winced at the loud noise he made, then moodily jumped onto his bed. He turned on his phone and looked at the screen. Ashton paused for a bit and noticed, listening, that the house was abnormally quiet beside the loud noises he had made just before. 

He shouted, "MUM WHERE IS LAUREN AND HARRY", his two younger siblings. Harry was 9 and had blonder hair than his big brother. Lauren was 11 and had darker hair than both Ashton and harry.

"WHAT', his mum replied.

Ashton repeated his question, shouting slightly louder so his mother could hear as didn't want to repeat himself again.
