When they walked into Luke's house, Ashton didn't even bothered asking or talking to Luke befor he walked to the couch and laid on it. He was sleeping again and he couldn't control it, the pills were still in his system.
Luke didn't prosted or said anything, he prefered ignoring his present even though it wasn't impossible because Ashton's scent filled the house.
Ashton coughed in his sleep and shifted again.
"I hate living here. I hate this house." Ashton sighed again.
"I know. But that's what we have."
"I want to live with my parents."
"Ashton stop it already. I wanted to stay with my parents as well." Liam lied.
Ashton walked away from him and got into their small bedroom. He crawled on his bed and pulled the thin blanket over his head. He didn't care he was a grown boy and had to be brave, at that moment he just cried. He was only fifteen and its been three days since they seperated parents and kids. He barely knew Liam as well because even though he saw him quite a lot befor the seperation, he never bothered talking to him or finding friends in general. He was always scared something like this will happen and deep down inside of him, he knew it will happen eventually, so he always clunged to his parents, fearimg to lose them. In a world where people lose their love ones on a daily basic, Ashton couldn't help but to live in a constant fear.
He stopped crying when he heard Liam walking into the room and moments later he felt Liam sitting on the edge of his bed. Ashton shoke the blanket from his head when he felt like he needed air and just closed his eyes.
"It'll be okay. Tomorrow is your first day of work and you have to behave, okay Ashton?"
"You have to promise me Ashton," Liam repeated when Ashton didn't reply. Ashton didn't know what to expect but he knew it'll be hard and not because of the physical work, because of the anger and sandness that went crazy inside him.
"I promise." Ashton whispered when Liam keot pressuring on him to promise. They were in this together now, have to take care of their own food and other living. Liam was the older one but that doesn't mean it was easier on him despite the fact he was prepared and knew it was about to happen.
Ashton was going to make it hard on him and he knew it.
Ashton didn't kept his promise and in the day after, he came back after Liam from work beaten up and looking like a mess. He resisted the entire day and he didn't care getting beaten by the guards of the so called 'government'. He was mad at the them for seperating him from his parents.
"Dammit Ashton," Liam muttered once Ashton walked into their small apartment and he saw how bad his face looked like.
"Its why I asked you to promise."
He opened his eyes slowly and it took him a few moments to go back to reality as he stared at the white ceiling.
He pulled himself to sit just as Luke walked into the living room.
"You slept four hours."
"You keep count?"
"I am if it consider I can't use my own danm couch."
"How much more days?" Ashton asked, reffering to the days he will have to spend here.
"About three, but the fun barely started," Luke walked closer and Ashton felt his heart quicken.
Ashton stood up in an attempt to be able to resist but it only made it easier on Luke to push him against a wall and towered above him. Ashton was scared, he never felt this scared his entire life and when he felt Luke leaning down to his neck, he started resisting and pushing around, not caring if it will get him worse. Ashton was always stubborn and always resisted, no matter how many times he will exprience the outcome of his actions. Just like he fought the guards everyday for six monthes.
Luke pinned him harder and grasped his forearms befor sinking his teeth in Ashton's neck and making him freeze.
Ashton's eyes rolled up and his body became numb. It was painful and he never thought a vampire's bite would feel that way.
Luke sucked harder and he could feel his own blood mixing with Ashton's blood as he tasted it. By the time he pulled away Ashton was just staring at space like a zombie.
"Don't be such a drama, it wasn't that bad." Luke rolled his eyes.
"You can go back to sleep now." Luke whiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
Ashton started coughing and then he collepesed on the ground completely.
He felt like he couldn't move a muscler and the bite still ached on his neck, burning even more when the fresh air made contect with the open two little holes. It wasn't long befor he lost concious again and sanked deeper into a dreamless sleep.
