He's my best mate, I want it to be more then that.

Luke's past has been a tragic blur, and despite an army of social workers who say everyone deserves a chance, Luke isn't sure he ever deserved one. And maybe he says Ashton's annoying, but then again, maybe Ashton treats him a little more human than he expected.

Luke has been in love with Ashton Irwin ever since he first laid eyes on him the day he joined the band. But to Ashton, Luke is his band member and best friend, nothing more. Nobody knows that Luke is gay, not even Calum or Michael, and he plans on keeping it that way.

"Can I try something?" Luke asked before pushing a curl behind my ear. He looked at me shyly before pressing his bottom lip to my top lip. I sat there on our shared bed frozen, unaware of the surroundings. It felt like fireworks, yet it wasn't even a proper kiss. He looked at me for approval and I beamed at him. "Can I try something?" I said softly. He nodded eagerly as I leaned into him as kissed him gently. Both of us laying back onto our shared bed thinking of what had occurred in the past minutes. Amazed on what had happened but yet sadden. This would never be a real relationship. I am merely an experiment to Luke. Although he is to I... we have tried these things over the past few weeks. My feelings are starting to tug and pull wanting to come free in my mind. This isn't good what I put myself through but I'll do it. Bringing my hand on top of his, I think of the possibilities for the future. Luke interlocks our hands and kisses me on the cheek. Why isn't this real? "Ashton..." "Yes Luke?" I say looking into those memorizing eyes. "How long are we going to do this?" He says taking his hand away from mine. As he begins to sit up he rubs his eyes and sighs. "We don't have too." I say a little hurt. Am I not a good experiment? "I don't know. It was just a question." He replies getting up from the bed, signaling that we are leaving the experiment headspace and entering the real world. The one where we can't be together. Why did I ever agree to this? When will it ever end?

Luke hasn’t been up to anything lately. He eats very rarely and he doesn’t get much sleep. Ashton notices his boyfriend and decides to check on him.

Ashton was the tumblr boy with flower crowns, a Polaroid and pastel jumpers. Luke was the boy with piercings, tattoos and a pair of black skinny jeans with a fancy camera. Their paths cross when Michael's exhibit comes to NYC . Suggestive scenes.

Ashton lost his vision and hearing. The only thing that makes him smile is touching Luke.

Ashton is a 17 year old suffering from major depression and self harms. He finds himself on the end of a bridge when he meets Luke Hemmings, and his life might change forever, for the better or for the worse.
