Reasons [Lashton]

Chapter 4{**}

Ashton's (POV)
I was surprised Luke had tried to talk to me. I stayed silent and stared at him with a blank expression. You see it is hard for me to talk because I stutter a lot and I would just make myself look stupid. He sat next to me and didn't even ask me and he didn't leave as well. I'm currently in my last class of the day. Luke kept trying to talk to me. I looked at him and when he would finish speaking I would look back down. Wearing my long black sweater that I wear to to cover my cuts was making me sweaty and comfortable but I couldn't do anything. The bell rang and I made my way out before Derek and his jerk of friends could beat me up.  He had only pushed me around today but not hit me. He also called me a few names. I stopped at the bus stop. A few minutes later Luke was their too. I got in and sat in my usual seat and Luke sat next to me. I felt bad for not talking to him. I like him a lot but I cant form words and if I do I'm scared to say the wrong thing. He smiled at me but hell I couldn't even smile. He had a small frown on his face and I felt guilty.

Luke's (POV)
I wonder why Ashton doesn't talk. He didn't even smile back at me which hurt me a little. The bus came to a stop and he had to get off. I smirked at him and told him he had to say excuse me if he wanted to pass by. He looked terrified and had tears brimming on the edge of his eyes. I gasped and quickly moved not realizing I had scared him. He walked by fast and got off. Leaving me sad and guilty. Great he probably hates me now. I got home and my mom was already home. She was cooking I greeted her and walked to my bedroom. I stared blankly at the ceiling with Ashton on my mind and how I basically made him cry today. I just hope tomorrow I have a better shot and I'm wishing he isn't scared of me or hates me.
