I wake up from the feeling of Luke stroking his hand up and down on my back. I press my face deeper into his neck, not wanting to move from being so cozy and comfortable. He pulls a blanket up over us.
"What time is it?" I ask still buried under the blanket and with my face in his neck feeling tired as hell.
"It's only about 2am," he says starting to stroke my back again.
"I need to change, these jeans are so uncomfortable but I don't want to move" I say wrapping one of my arms around him. He sits up bringing me along since I'm wrapped up with him.
"Will you sleep with me?" He asks with a slight blush and I look at him like he has gone mad. He laughs still blushing "No, not like that. I mean will you sleep in my bed with me" he clarifies so I sigh and snatch the blanket to keep me warm as he stands up and carries me bridal style up to Tait's room so I could change. He walks out of the room while I change and then when I'm done I walk out side and he has his back to me so I jump up on his back and he grabs ahold of my thighs to keep me from falling off his back he also grabs my stuff and walks to his room. He sets my stuff by the door and closes it he them drops face forward in his bed with me still on his back. We stay like that for a while and then I climb off and into his bed lying under the sheets. He joins me a while later after changing himself into some pajamas, which just consisted of a pair of boxers while I was in a pair of gym shorts and a few sizes to big t-shirt.
"Yesterday or whatever. What did you say before I answered my phone?" He asks while getting into the bed and wrapping his arms around me.
"Nothing really" I say and start blushing so I bury my face in his neck again and when I feel my face calming down I look up at him again. I give him a peck on the lips and then say
"Just uhm that was some first kiss" I said hesitantly the last part quietly and could feel my face heating up again so I hid it from him in his chest.
"Really?" He questions trying to get me to look at him. I give in and look at him he just stares me right in the eyes.
"You must be joking" He says not believing that he was my first kiss.
"I'm not and I don't really want to talk about it. Let's just go to sleep I'm tired" I say and turn around so we are spooning. Me being the little spoon. He tightens his arms around me and snuggles his face in my hair.
After a few minutes I hear his breath slowing and I know he is asleep. I just can't get myself to sleep. I try to move so I can go outside to get some fresh air but he has such a strong grip around me so he wont let me move. I lay there staring into the dark, waiting to finally get tired enough to fall asleep.
After an infinity I finally feel my eyes drooping and I start to fall asleep. Before I know it I'm in a deep sleep.
When I wake it is so bright I get blinded but when my vision gets adjusted I at first don't recognize where I'm at, then I remember that I'm in Luke's room that is before I can feel his arms still is around me. I can hear on his breath that he's still asleep so I try to turn around to face him, I succeed. I put both of my hands on his chest and trace different shapes and figures and write out different words. Not long after he wakes up but doesn't open his eyes. He hums and pulls me closer to him if it even is possible and presses a kiss on top of my head.
"Still don't want to talk about what you told me yesterday?" He asks me in my hair making it sound mumbled. I shake my head.
"Don't think I ever want to, I just don't feel like it is an important thing to talk about" I say groaning. He strokes me on my back and looks over at the clock he has on the wall.
"Probably about time to get up. The other ones will be home soon".
"Can you get my bag I don't feel like being cold just yet. I also need to shower" I say pouting at him.
"Alright" He says and stands up I quickly pull the duvet closer to my body so I won't get cold from him leaving the bed. He quickly comes back and sets my bag on the bed and then walks over to his dresser to put some clothes on.
"Do you mind if I use your shower?" I ask as I sit up and try to keep the duvet from falling off me.
"Sure, I'll be downstairs. You want anything special for breakfast?"
"Depends, Are you cooking or do you mean like cereal?" I ask while rifling through my bag to find my underwear and something I can wear.
"Well I can attempt to cook but we all know that I really can't. I think we should have some pancake mix ready downstairs but you would probably have to make them or else we will be having burnt pancakes for breakfast" He says pulling on a t-shirt. I shrug as I find my green day t-shirt and decide that will have to do so I pull out the first pair of bottoms in the bag that I can find which turned out to be a pair of yoga pants, I don't do yoga of any sports really I just wear them when I don't feel like wearing jeans. I then pull out my regular black underwear. That will have to do I think and get up from the bed. As I'm in the doorway I remember that I forgot socks but then again I don't want them to get wet so I will just get them after.
I take a quick shower but since I don't have any shampoo, conditioner or body wash I have to use Luke's since I'm is in his shower. I could've showered in Tait's bathroom and I could've used her shampoo and stuff but I didn't feel like it. I step out of the shower and wrap my hair into a turban with the towel and then try my body off with another one then put my clothes on. I towel dry my hair and then I braid my hair as well as I can.
When I walk into the kitchen I can see Luke stirring the Pancake mix together in a bowl, I also see that he had taken out the frying pan and made it ready on the stove.
"Just in time," He smiles.
"You are okay with making them right? I can try to help the best I can but I can't promise they will be any good if I'm by the stove" He continues looking uncertain.
"I don't mind really, to be honest I love to cook when I get the chance to" I say smiling at him. He smiles at me and sets the bowl with pancake mix by the stove and bring me one of those soup scooper thing to use to transfer the pancake mix from the bowl to the frying pan.
After half an hour and many attempts and very few burnt pancakes later we are finished.
"I did tell you that I wasn't good at cooking, and now you know that I'm not lying" Luke said pointing at the burnt pancakes.
"At least you tried. Maybe another time I can teach you how to properly cook" I say disposing the burnt pancakes in the trashcan.
"How about next weekend. The family will be away then too"
"If you don't mind me asking but why don't you go along with them?"
"I'm kind of banned from grannies house because I once brought a friend along and he thought that I would be funny to play a prank n the middle of the night. The other ones didn't think it was that funny. So since I helped him granny banned both me and all of my friends from her house," He says chuckling slightly.
"But why don't you hang out with your friends when you're at home?"
"Well right now I'm with you. But then most of my friends are out partying all weekend and I don't really feel like having a hangover when we get back to school on Monday. Then again parties isn't really my scene," He says taking out two plates from the cabinet and set them on the kitchen island.
"Then what have you been doing during this week long break then?" I ask taking out some sugar and strawberry jam and a spoon.
"To be honest not very much, I went playing soccer with Calum once and then I've pretty much only been inside my room doing pretty much nothing maybe playing the X-Box once in a while" He says taking out two pairs of knifes and forks and sets them by the plates.
"Since when do you play soccer" I ask teasingly and bring the plate with pancakes over to the island.
"Excuse me, I've actually played since freshman year. I haven't been as dedicated as Calum has been but I've still played. But then again we all know Calum's dream is to become a professional soccer player" He says sounding hurt in the beginning but then letting it go.
"But I've been at your house almost everyday since we were kids. How could I not have known?" I ask sitting down on a barstool by the kitchen island. He shrugs and places a pancake on his plate.
"So you've been playing for the past three years?" I ask and put a pancake on my own plate and then put some strawberry jam on and then sugar over that.
"Pretty much, but then when you've been here you've been locked away in Tait's room all the time or if I've not been home I'm not sure you've asked why" He answers and repeat the same process on his pancake as I did with mine.
We both eat quickly while bickering over what to do after we have finished eating. We finally agree on just watching the TV. We use teamwork to clean the dishes we used after we were done with that we went into their living room and sat down on the couch. Luke instructed to lay my head in his lap, so I obey him and lay down on the sofa with my head in his lap as he is flicking trough the different channels. After he settles on a channel he puts the TV controller down and starts to play with my hair. I turn on my side so I face the television and just as I'm about to do so I feel Luke's hand on my cheek so I look up at him and see that his attention is on me.
"You don't care what we are watching do you?" I ask chuckling and he starts to blush.
"Sorry" He said and removed his hand to playing with my hair so I turned fully to my side. He continued to play with my hair and I started to fall asleep but since I didn't want to sleep since it would fuck up my sleeping schedule I sat up and gave him an apologizing smile.
"Sorry, I just didn't want to fall asleep. How about we put on a movie and not a documentary," I say chuckling standing and walking over to their movie stand.
"Do you want to watch on of these or on pay-per-view?" I ask pointing from their DVD stand to the TV.
"I'm sure there only is children movies in there so we will go with pay-per-view, also they have a better selection of movies on there. You choose one and I'll go get popcorn. Butter flavor with salt right?" He asks and stands up. I nod and reach for the TV controller as he walk out to the kitchen.
After looking through many good movies I decide on Teenage mutant ninja turtles which also is my current obsession along with Harry Potter but I thought the both of us would enjoy this one more. Just as I click the movie I see Luke coming with a bowl of popcorn so he sits down on the couch and asks "What movie are we watching? Not some sappy romance I hope. You are better than that". As soon as he sits on the couch I take a handful of popcorn and shove it into my mouth and he looks at me shocked I just shrug and give him an innocent look. When I have finished swallowing I answer him with a smile "Nope, we are watching Teenage mutant ninja turtles. I was going to choose a Harry Potter movie but I know you aren't that keen on Harry Potter so I felt nice and chose a movie we both would enjoy". He just smiled and gestured for me to come closer so I reached for a blanket and moved closer, he wrapped his arm around me and pressed play. Even though it wasn't the most romantic movie I guess he just found a way in everything to cuddle. I looked over to the clock and see it's only around 2.
"What time do they usually get back?" I ask taking another handful of popcorn but not shoving the whole thing in my mouth this time.
"Around five, or that is when they leave there but it depends if they are in a hurry it will take half an hour which I don't think so it will probably take an hour if I know my family right" He says with a shrug and pops a few popcorn in his mouth.
We finish the movie almost two hours later and the bowl of popcorn only have the corns that weren't popped left in the bottom.
"I forgot I was meant to ask you earlier but is there a specific reason why you asked to stay here?" I shifted where I sat and answered truly.
"Well I guess you heard that I had to be home for dinner because my parents wanted to speak to me?" I start looking at him to make sure he is with me so he nods at me answering my thoughts.
"So mom got me to get dad and stuff and so dad was acting all strange about me telling mom something he easily could've told her himself, and then in the middle of dinner they announce that they are getting a divorce because they were having some trouble in their relationship and didn't want to end on bad terms" I finish my voice cracking in the end as my voice drips with sarcasm as I fiddle with my fingers. Luke takes my fiddling hands in one of his to stop them from fiddling. When I finally stops he hugs me to his chest as I cry. I don't cry for long and I'm not full on weeping because what can I really do, it's their decision I will just have to live with it. I take a deep breath and peel myself out of Luke's arms.
"I'll be right back, just need to use the bathroom" I say pointing to the one down the hall, he nods and let me go.
When I get to the bathroom the first thing I do is lock the door, I then walk over to the mirror to see myself with blood shot eyes.
"This is why I hate crying so much" I whisper to myself in the mirror trying not to sound like a crazy person. I wipe at my eyes trying to get the redness and the puffiness away. I don't succeed. I take the hair tie I have around my wrist at all times and throw my hair into a bun to keep it out of my face as I turn on the faucet and splash some water in my face, good thing I wasn't wearing any makeup today or that would've been bad. I reach for a towel and dry my face. I look in the mirror again and see that my eyes are not red anymore and the puffiness has gone down a little bit. I unlock the door and step out to be greeted by Luke.
"You sure you're okay" He looks at me sympathetically and I don't like it.
"Not right now but I know I will be, and please don't look at me like that" I say looking at him with annoyance filling my voice in the end. He shakes his head and smiles.
"You're so stubborn you know that?"
"Probably because I don't like people sympathizing me" I snap and roll my eyes.
"Let's just watch another movie" He says and walks back into the living room. I follow and sit at the other end of the couch that he is not really feeling for a cuddle right now. He puts at me but I don't give in. He searches for the Harry Potter movies, probably to cheer me up.
"Which one?" He asks and points the TV controller to the TV.
"Half Blood Prince" I mutter reaching for the blanket and draping it over me. He obeys and selects my favorite movie out of all the Harry Potter movies. The movie starts and he leaves for what I think is making more popcorn.
He returns after 5minutes with not only one but two bowls of popcorn, probably from my pissy mood he decided to leave it alone. He sets a bowl of popcorn on the table in front of me and takes one with min at the other end of the couch focusing on the movie. I reach for the bowl and set it on my lap. I can feel his eyes on me but I keep my eyes on the TV. After awhile I still feel his eyes on me so I look at him and raise an eyebrow and say "What?" trying not to snap at him again. He glances away and says a quiet sorry, I start to feel bad for taking out my anger on him when it isn't even his fault, he was only trying to be nice and comfort me. I set my bowl with popcorn on the table and turn to him.
"You're not the one that should be sorry, I should. I didn't mean to snap at you I just don't like people sympathizing me"
"I didn't mean to, it just kind of is a normalway people react when you tell people bad news about your life or something" Heanswers and looks over at me. I nod and say "Sorry again". He reaches over thecouch and hugs me and I hug him back as a last apology.
