| Youngblood (noun) | A person who lives freely with constant adrenaline pumping through their veins to disguise the pain hiding behind their eyes -- Anastasia Hemmings has always lived in the shadows, covering her pain in fake smiles, false confidence, and drowning her sorrows in alcohol. Ashton Irwin lived in the limelight, masking his misery in hat tricks, shit-eating grins, and partying til he can't see straight. A girl who doesn't believe in love because everyone who has ever loved her hurts her, and a boy afraid to love because all he does is hurt the ones he loves- a recipe for disaster; a twisted fairytale he orchestrated. -- In which they shift from "I'm going to make your life a living hell if you stay on this team." "You've been doing that since the day I met you." to "I hate how much I love you." "The whole world could be collapsing around me and I'd only care that you're okay." ---- "I had someone tell me once that living like a youngblood hurts too, and I didn't believe them until you broke me." -- 06/02/21- #3 in #5secondsofsummer 10/25/21- #1 in #ashtonirwin 12/23/21- #1 in #irwin

Aubrey Wilson has the heart of an angel. As the type of person to always trust in others, she's admirable to peers. A total darling, but with a sadness that encases her heart. Anyone could shrink down in fright at the receiving end of Luke Taylor's infamous glare. Tall, muscular, dark-haired, and handsome, he's no stranger on or off the field. Not a kind stranger either. A total brooding asshole, but with a sadness that encases his heart. --- "You didn't have to hit him or anything," I lie my head on his broad, strong shoulder. "He shouldn't have touched you like that," he tucks a curl behind my ear. ~Strong Language~ ~Mild Violence~
