We Could Be Anything by @kittenclifford (E, 14k, muke)
It’s become a habit now, a routine, almost normal for Luke to find himself outside of his dorm room, on the wrong side of the door, in the middle of the night on a weeknight. It was the third time this week (and it was only Wednesday) that Luke had been sexiled from his own dorm room by his roommate Calum. But he had to admit, Luke didn't mind being exiled nearly as much as he let on, because it meant that he got to spend time on the floor above. With Michael.
Or: college AU where Luke's sexile from his dorm room leads him to Michael's room instead; from the floor to the bed, from friends to lovers
heart is gonna flatline || l.h. by @takemealivelh (M, 7k, luke x oc)
tour puts luke and lucy’s feelings to the test. addiction to sex, alcohol and weed for when things get hard. SMUT.
the cat's plan by @kaleidoscopeminds (T, 11k, cake)
Calum would like it to go on the record that Luke never wanted to keep the cat in the first place.
Luke would argue that’s not entirely true.
Not that it matters anyway, because when Calum shows up in their flat after work, hoodie soaked through, a pitiful mewing coming from his pocket and a beseeching look in his eyes, there was no way Luke would have had it in him to say no.
on purpose by @burstingsunrise (T, 20k, cake)
The desire to kiss Luke is overwhelming. Calum knows he looks ridiculous right now, but Luke’s right there, face inches away, smiling fondly at Calum’s stupid face caught between his careful palms. His eyes are different too. He’s not looking at Calum like he wants to fuck him. He’s looking at Calum like he wants to gently cradle Calum in his giant hands like a baby chick. Somehow, that’s even worse.
there's something that you should know by @cxmp-writes (T, 4k, malum)
Every summer, skater boys Calum and Michael travel to a sleepaway camp like no other — Camp Woodward — to hone their skills, meet new friends, and take their talents to the next level. But it's what they're not expecting that will change their lives forever.
Under the Moonlight by @ashtons-lemon-tree (T, 682, mashton)
Ashton reveals his feelings for Michael at a party celebrating their album release
the story needs some mending (and a better happy ending) by @clumsyclifford (T, 5k, mashton)
“‘Let's see a witch,’” Ashton says. “‘It’ll be fine, Ashton. What could go wrong?’”
“I didn't say witch, I said psychic! How was I meant to know she was both?”
“From the sign!” Ashton says, gesturing emphatically at an A-board whose advertised PSYCHIC/WITCH SERVICES couldn't be more clearly outlined.
Michael tries to grumble but only manages a rumbly croak. “Look, you're fine. I'm the one who’s a bloody frog.”
“Play stupid games, win stupid prizes,” Ashton sing-songs.
caught beneath the landslide by @starvinginbelair (E, 4k, lashton)
“You wanted to hear the playlist,” Ashton says, voice low and gravelly. He shoves the plastic CD case back onto the shelf, the one that once housed this damned CD that’s spinning music around them right now, that Luke should’ve never asked about in the first place. “This is the playlist.”
“I don’t want your number no,” the CD croons, clearly unaware of whatever the hell it is that’s going on right now. “I don’t wanna give you mine and nooooooooo.”
“I didn’t think you’d put No Scrubs on it,” Luke counters, sticking his thumb in his mouth to bite at the edges of his nails.
may the best man win by @lovesosweeet (T, 20k, calum x oc)
competing for the best toast at their best friends' wedding, calum and tanner go from being pretend rivals to... something like friends. maybe a little more? may the best man win.
the skies falling down (end of the world) by @sup3rbloom (T, 4k, lashton)
Luke is severely hurt, and Ashton is desperate to find something to heal his best friend. He's on the brink of giving up when he meets Michael and Calum, who happen to be from a community that has medical supplies.
Fell In Love With a Boy at the Rock Show by @bandtra5h (M, 4k, malum)
Michael came to Calum with a request, a huge best friend favor: “Calum I need you to drive me Vegas!”
Or
Michael impulsively buys tickets to an emo festival in Las Vegas to meet up with a girl he's been talking to on Discord, but has no idea how he's gonna get there. Luckily, Calum has a car...
running from something (running back to you) by @the-technorats (M, 23k, lashton)
Luke should have died a long time ago.
He’s had every chance to, and somehow he just keeps evading it. Being in the Hunger Games, though, seems like it should be the final nail in his excruciatingly, meticulously constructed coffin.
Or, the one where Luke is the District Four male tribute for the Hunger Games and he loses everything. Everything, that is, except for Ashton.
Always In Spring by @chamaleonsoul (M, 17k, cake)
Luke and Calum’s friendship has gone through many highs and lows, and it’s so full of parallels and full-circle moments that it’s almost like the universe is set to make sure they grow, love and stay together.
vampire?! (should have known it was strange you only come out at night) by @igarbagecannoteven (T, 2k, muke)
“What I’m trying to say is, it’s awesome that your family has this whole ‘goth mad scientist finally got paid for all the Frankensteins they’ve made’ type vibe going on, but if you plan on bringing someone home to meet the parents, you should give them a heads up. It was a little hard to appreciate the coolness when I was trying to figure out if I was going to end up as Cult Victim Number Two.”
“What made you decide that’s not going to happen?” Luke asked.
Michael thought about Calum’s texts and shrugged. “Honestly? Still not a hundred percent sure it’s not. But if you’re doing the sacrificing, I don’t know if I’d mind.”
Thank you to all of the participants!
