Luke's name appeared on my screen a few minutes after my breakdown.
"Hello?" I tried to hide the fact that I'd been hysterically crying only moments before.
"Are you okay lia?"
"Yeah"
"Okay"
"How was the show?"
"It was awesome la has great energy I loved it. Nothing can describe the way performing makes you feel"
"I know" I admired the way his heart was all into it. He lit up when he talked about performing. I smiled at the thought of how he looked right now.
"You know?"
"Yeah I used to preform. I wasn't like good or anything but I really loved it"
"I didn't know that"
"There's a lot you don't know about me Luke." I sighed heavily.
"I'd really like to though." My stomach fluttered.
"Maybe, I'll think about it" I joked. His intoxicating laugh sounded through the speaker.
"Lia?" He was more serious now.
"Yeah?"
"I'm on the road, im traveling the world with my amazing band of my best friends. I'm living my dream." He paused. "Why am I not happy"
"Luke.." It killed me to think of him like that. The realization that Luke probably wasn't laughing and giggly, pushing Michael off him while he was talking to me. He was alone. He was just like me. And I would've done anything in that moment to be with him. And try desperately to make him okay. I would've done what I needed him to do for me when I distanced myself like that.
"Yeah?"
"You will be happy."
"I hope so" he sighed. "I have to go. Goodnight Lia. I miss you"
"I miss you too Luke. Goodnight"
**********************************************
I woke up with a text from Luke.
Luke: sorry for being so needy last night.
Me: Lucas hemmings. You never need to apologize for having a heart. ;)
Luke: I suppose. :) have a good day beautiful!

I was finally getting to know him. Not just knowing him. I was finally learning his late night, after show thoughts. And that meant more to me than anyone will ever know.
