“Your inferiority complex is infuriating.” Asch said, staring menacingly at Luke. “I don’t know how those friends of yours can even stand you!”
“Asch, I--”
“Shut up! I’m ashamed of being the original for dreck like you. I’m telling you now, replica. Figure out what it is that you want in this life, and get it because it’s not going to just fall out of the sky.” He glared at his clone.
“It’s just that… What I really want is…” Luke paused. “I can’t tell you.”
“Whatever.” Asch turned on his heel and started to walk away, but he heard Luke whisper something just barely audible.
“I … I want you to like me.”
He looked back at Luke and almost smirked. “What was that?”
“N-nothing.”
“I heard something… about you just want…” he turned and walked back towards Luke, getting closer to him than they had been. “…Me to… what was that last bit?”
“Like… me.” Luke said with a gulp.
“Are you retarded? You stole my life… my family…” Asch said acidly. “How could I ever…”
“I know, I know… and it’s not like I asked to be born, is it?” Luke tried in earnest to defend himself. “Asch… I’m sorry my existence has cost you so much… but…”
Asch placed a finger over Luke’s lips. “If you’d shut up for a damn second, you could hear people talk.” he scolded. Luke nodded, silently. “What I was saying was, how could I ever admit that I liked you?”
“You mean--”
“You may be a moron, and a pansy. But you’re still a part of me. You’re another me. And there’s something about that that I can’t deny. If I had been raised in your circumstances, I’d probably be as frustrating as you.”
“Hey!”
“It’s the damn truth and you know it. We’re the way we are because of the shit that’s happened to us, right?”
“I guess so.” Luke looked at the ground. He gasped softly when he felt Asch’s finger crook under his chin and raise his head up to look him in the eyes.
“It’s weird. I…” he trailed off, “I always wondered what it would be like to kiss myself.”
Luke’s face broke out into a fierce blush. “Asch…!” he yelped, “You teasing son of a--”
Asch cut him off with a deep kiss, pressing him into the wall as he forced his tongue into his mouth. He tasted Luke, and nibbled on him. It was odd and exhilarating all at once. Luke was melted into a writhing mass of moans, losing all rational thought and just moving with the emotions and testosterone. When Asch pulled back, he made a small sound of annoyance. Asch grinned.
“Now that… was interesting. You got a lot to learn about kissing, replica.”
Luke’s face turned red, but for an entirely different reason.
