Ashton: 10:58AM
Hey, are you busy?

Luke: 10:58AM
Nah, just learning about
the joys of mathematics.
Why? What's up?

Ashton: 10:59AM
nothing, just wanted
someone to talk to.

Luke: 10:59AM
I'm here. Talk away.

Ashton: 11:00AM
well, more like, i wanted
someone to talk to me. i just
got done with another
treatment and i feel sick and
wanted to interact with someone
besides my dad and my doctor.

Ashton: 11:01AM
yeah, that totally doesn't make
me sound like a complete
loser.

Luke: 11:02AM
You're not a loser. I mean,
besides my friend, Calum,
you're literally the only person
dumb enough to keep talking
to me. How'd your treatment
go?

Ashton: 11:02AM
same as usual. nothing has
changed since last time, which
i guess is a good thing... idk why
i was hopeful for something
else though. i had been feeling
better, but now i feel like
complete shit.

Luke: 11:03AM
What're your plans for today?

Ashton: 11:04AM
idk probably just nap and watch
tv. don't think i can handle much
today anyway. i almost passed
out in the elevator at the hospital
and basically i'm not allowed
to do anything today.

Luke: 11:04AM
Oh shit. Are you alright?

Ashton: 11:05AM
yeah, yeah, i'm perfectly
alright, i just forgot how badly
the side effects of chemo
effected me. honestly, i
just wanted to curl up and
die out of embarrassment.

Luke: 11:05AM
I'm glad you're okay though.
Be really careful.

Luke: 11:06AM
P.S. What's
your favorite movie?

Ashton: 11:06AM
promise you won't laugh
first.

Luke: 11:06AM
Ashton, ever since I saw Lilo &
Stitch, when I was, like, 8 it
has been my favorite movie.
Therefore, I have no right to
laugh at your choice because
it can't be any worse than mine.

Ashton: 11:07AM
wanna bet?? my fave movie
is dirty dancing.

Luke: 11:09AM
Okay, good choice. Now,
what's your address and would
you mind a visitor?

Ashton: 11:10AM
wait... what?

Luke: 11:10AM
That's not weird is it? I
was just trying to brighten
your day a bit because I
know that you probably
get lonely having to do this
by yourself (aside from your
pops but). So, I thought I might
come and visit. I'll even
pick up some cookies on
the way.

Ashton: 11:11AM
that... would be really great
actually. i'm not supposed to
have sweets because it might
make me sick, but you can get
whatever you want ☺️

Luke: 11:12AM
What can you have? Send me
a list of things you like and
I'll choose something to surprise
you with then!

Ashton: 11:12AM
okie. thanks, luke. like, really,
thank you.
