The Bullies and The Drummer(Lashton & Malum)

Chapter 6

*A.I P.O.V*

I woke up feeling warm and loved. I don't know why to be honest. I felt something hard under my head and moved a little and realized it was a person. I was starting to freak out until I remembered Luke laying with me last night. I opened my eyes and looked up at Luke I rubbed my eyes then looked at him again and smiled lightly laying back down on his chest. I felt him move from under my head an I could tell he was awake. I rubbed my eyes and acted like I just woke up.

"Morning" Luke said smiling down at me.

"Morning" I said quietly. My throat was still hurting from..the accident. I sat up and sighed.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

I shrugged as the nurse walked in and sat some pills and some water down on the table as she rolled it over to me.

"Um what's that?" Luke asked.

"There his anti-biotics and..another pill" She said looking at me disgusted.

I looked down at the pills and sighed.

"There anti-biotics and anti-depressants" I said taking the pills and water putting the pills in my mouth and swallowing them easily then takes a small drink of the water.

"W-what?" He said.

I shrunk down into the bed thinking he was gonna tell at me again. He looked scary when he yelled. it reminds me of every word he's ever called me. Disgusting. Useless. No good. Worthless. Faggot.

"P-please don't y-yell at me."I whispered.

His eyes went soft seeing the tears in mine. "No no ash I'm not gonna yell. I promise." he said pulling me into him. I laid on his chest and buried my face in his neck sniffling slightly as he rubbed my back.

"Shh ash it's okay" he said softy.

I sniffled and nodded staying on his chest. Then he started singing to me an u calmed down and listened to him as he sung.

When he finished the song I looked up at him.

"Thank you" I whispered.

He smiles and nodded."anytime ash"I laid m head back down on his chest and looked at the door as two people walked in. Calum and Michael.

"Hey" Calum said.

"Hi" Michael said looking down.

"Hey guys" Luke said.

I stayed silent honestly the more I talk the more my throat hurt. I also really didn't want to talk to them I didn't know if they still hated me or not.

"How are you doing Ashton?" Calum said lightly as he looked at me.

I looked up at him I could tell he saw the bruise around my neck. "Im fine" I said softly.

Finally Michael looked up I could tell he was holding back tears. I was up in the robe I was put in and stood up. Luke looked at me concerned at first afraid I'd fall but when I didn't he say back down. I walked up to Michael as Calum and Luke watched me. I looked Michael in the eyes. He was trying so hard to hide it so hard to not let the tears spill,but after I whispered one word he broke.

"Same?"I whispered.

The tears spilled from his eyes. As he nodded and whispered."s-same." I pulled him into me as he wrapped his arms around my waist and I wrapped mine around his neck. I let him cry into my shoulder as I rubbed his back.

"What?" Luke and Calum said at the same time.

I pulled away from Michael and liked him in the eyes and said.

"Look don't do anything stupid like me. Someone will find you and love you for you no matter what. For your dyed hair. To you quirky personality. To your "punk rock" look. They will love you. You just have to be strong enough to fight it. Not hide it. Never hide it. It nothing to be ashamed of. Your amazing the way you are. I can promise you that." I said in a stern voice not caring that my throat was hurting. He needed to know the truth and I have him the truth.

"T-thank you Ashton" he whispered.

"Anytime. Now got to the bathroom and clean up okay? You don't need to cry over this."

He nodded and walked away from me and into the bathroom. I turned around and say back down on the bed as Luke and Calum looked at me confused.

"What?" I said looking up at them.

"What just happened?" Calum said.

"Not my place to tell" I shrugged.

Soon Michael came out of the bathroom looking better then when he went in. He sat down on the chair on the other side on my bed and pulled his knee up to his chest.

I smiled slightly at him and he smiled back. I could already tell that things were looking up for me,and I can't wait to see what happens next.

AN/ poor Mikey:'( i feel bad for making him cry he punk rock. He's not suppose to cry. Haha Lashton fluff at the beginning. Who doesn't love it lol.
