Beside You | A Luke Hemmings Fanfic

Nothing!

*Ashton's p.o.v*

I walked home, still thinking over mine and Luke's conversation. I wasn't going to lie, I was kinda regretting saying the things I said; I mean, it was true that I wanted one of my best friends and twin sister to be happy, but I didn't want them going out. I won't tell Luke that though, not only does it look hypocritical, I didn't want to be the one to stand in the way of their happiness. I would have to keep this to myself and if Luke wanted me to help him ask out Alyssa like I offered, then so be it. I would just have to suck it up and deal with it.

I arrived back at home and walked in the front door.

"Hey," I said, walking in the front room

"Hey," Alyssa replied. "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, it's fine," I said, and sat down next to Mike and Cal

"Hey, guys," I grinned

"We need to talk, Ash," Michael said, seriously

"What's up?" I asked, confused because Michael was never serious.

"Listen, we've got something to tell you, but I don't think that you're going to like it," Calum took over

"Yeah, it's about L-" Michael began

"About Luke and how he likes Alyssa and how Alyssa likes Luke back?" I interrupted

"How did you know about Luke?" Calum asked

"And how do you know that Alyssa likes Luke back?" Michael chipped in

"Okay, so I know that Alyssa likes Luke because I heard her talking to Phoebe about it this morning in the kitchen. I know that Luke likes Alyssa too because that's what we were just talking about!" I explained

"Are you okay with this?" Calum asked

"Yeah, sure," I replied, swallowing my earlier feelings. "I even offered to help Luke ask out Alyssa because if she's like me, then sh-"

"She would want a big gesture," Michael finished, grinning at me

"Exactly!" I laughed

"Text him and tell him that we'll help too!" Calum said excitedly.

"Will do," I replied, pulling my phone out to reveal that I already had a text. I opened it up and saw it was from Zoe.

I sent the text and then started a new text to Luke.

Hey, you alright now? I told Cal and Mike our conversation and they say they want to help if you want. Oh, and Zoe's getting home in a couple of days so you wanna come over and we can all hang out? Talk to ya in a bit x

Luke replied almost straight away.

Hey, yeah, I'm okay, thanks. It would be great to have all of your help, but PLEASE don't tell Alyssa - I want it to be a complete surprise. Text me the details for when Zoe comes over x

Don't worry, I won't tell Alyssa and I'll get Mike not to tell Phoebe because the two of them have gotten pretty close. Will text you when I know x
