YOU KNOW WHAT FUCK IT I'M JUST GOING TO POST THIS CHAPTER AND THE EPILOGUE IS NEXT

_____________

Three weeks had gone faster and soon christmas vacation came. Michael and Calum were going home for the holidays while the other two were staying in school. Their families were going on vacation but they didn't mind staying, at least they got to be with each other.

On those three weeks they became really close. Luke managed to sneak out of the common room in the middle of the night just to see Ashton working in the library. He would keep him company and even finish some homework (thank Merlin he finished all of his christmas homework). They walked with their friends to the entrance of the castle and then walked away since they couldn't go further.

"So, are you planning on going to the Hogsmeade trip this vacation? I heard they were giving out free butterbeer only for students at the cafés." Luke said.

Ashton shrugged and sighed "I don't know, I might go. Are you going?"

"I will if you are."

The two stood in the Viaduct without speaking, just staring at anywhere but each other. It was almost dinner time, which meant they would have dinner together on the christmas sweaters their mothers bought for them. It was weird but they wanted to do it.

"So, I'll see you in a bit?" Luke said and Ashton nodded.

Ashton kissed Luke's cheek and walked inside and up the stairs to the Ravenclaw common room. Luke did the opposite and headed to the Dungeons where the Slytherin common room was. Both picked their sweaters and cringed at how christmas themed they were but wore them. Luke was the first to get to the entrance of the dining room and waited for Ashton.

When he saw the boy smiling to an Hufflepuff and walking down the stairs he almost screamed. He looked so beautiful with his blue snow-flaked theme sweater and messy hair, along with the black glasses that made him look amazing. Ashton patted the Hufflepuff's back and walked to Luke, smiling at him. He's tired of how things have to be right now.

"Let's go eat?"

"Yeah uh-the elves didn't finish yet and probably won't for another hour." Luke said, lying. The elves were always on time "They're running short in the kitchen, lots of them took vacation time."

Ashton giggled "I know you're lying, the elves are never late. Is there something worrying you?"

"I-I just-Can we stop being friends?"

Ashton frowned, his heart falling "W-What? Did I do something wrong?"

Luke shook his head and grabbed Ashton's hands, holding them "You did nothing wrong, you are just perfect. I'm just tired of being friends I wanna be- I wanna be more. Much more."

Ashton kissed his cheek and whispered that he understood.

"I want to be much more too."

"So, will you be my boyfriend?" Luke said, making Ashton giggle and nod his head.

They hugged for a bit in the almost empty all, the people who passed only noticed them being closed and giggleg at something the other said. Luke's hands stayed on Ashton's hips while Ashton's hands were on Luke's shoulders. They were close, their chests almost touching.

A sound was head and they looked up, seeing a mistletoe forming. They looked at the Slytherins and Gryffindors laughing but it was okay because they were Luke's friends.

"Ha ha, very funny guys."

"It's the tradition, Luke!"

Luke smirked and grabbed Ashton's chin, turning his head and kissing him. Luke's friends started cheering when Ashton grabbed the back of Luke's neck and depeened the kiss, tongue being involved. If the blonde hadn't stopped his boyfriend then they would have gone in a full make-out session.

"And I thought you would be shy." Luke said, laughing. Ashton just smiled and pecked his lips multiple times, smiling too.

"Being shy is for the weak, I'm a strong independent Ravenclaw."

"Sure you are."
