Anything Can Happen (5SOS)

Chapter 23

:) Sophie's POV :)

"You have got to be kidding me. I am not wearing that Michael!" I glared at Michael who was throwing clothes out of my closet looking for the 'perfect outfit.' 

"Why not! You'll look hot!" He winked as he threw a mini skirt in my direction. 

"I own one mini skirt and you just had to find it. I've never even worn it!" I stomped my foot like a three year old. 

"Aww, aren't you cute when you are mad." He walked over to me and ruffled my hair. 

"Shut up." I swatted his hand away and grabbed the tank-top, under shirt, and accessories off my bed. 

"I am not wearing the mini skirt. Skinny jeans are just fine." I looked at Michael and grinned.

"Fine but wear these," he threw a pair of pants in my face, "your ass looks delicious in those."

"Gee, thanks Michael. Nice to know my ass looks like a divine pastry." I took the pants and walked out of the room.

"You have no idea!" Michael yelled down the hallway. 

I came out of the bathroom in a pair of skin tight black skinny jeans with rips at the knees, a grey designed muscle tank-top with a gold and black under shirt, black combat boots, and a gold necklace with bracelets and earrings. Overall, I looked like I was going to a rock concert.

"Damn. Am I good? Or am I good?" Michael grinned as he saw me in the outfit.

"You're ok." I smirked and he mocked a broken heart.

"Alright sweet cheeks, we better get going." Michael stood up and grabbed the car keys. He ushered me out the door and into the car. The drive was spent with the windows down and us singing at the top of our lungs.

When we reached the arena, it was already crowded so he brought me around back. He gave me a V.I.P. pass and sent me off to the front of the stage before any of the other boys could see me.

The opening band was fun and got the crowd pumped for 5SOS. Now I was standing up front waiting for the boys to come out.

"You must be Sophie." A woman walked up next to me and gave me a warm smile.

"Yes. I don't mean to sound rude, but who are you?" She chuckled and her smile broadened.

She stuck her hand out and I shook it. "I'm Liz. Liz Hemmings."

She gave a hardy laugh as my face probably held a humorous shocked expression.

"Oh my God. Hi. It's lovely to meet you." I finally snapped out of it and smiled at her.

"Hello darling. I've heard a lot about you. I have to say, the situation you are in now with my son is quite interesting."

"Your son sure does know how to flip my world upside down." I smiled sadly at her.

"You should give yourself more credit. His world has become dull without you."

I went to speak, but she put up her hand and smiled at me.

"I can see you love him, and take my word for it, he loves you with everything he has. Don't give up on him. He may not be the smartest man at times, but his intentions are in the right place. Just give him another chance to show you." She began to walk away but I caught her elbow.

"I don't need to give him a second chance. He has my heart. He's had for a very long time and every moment he has it, I will be forever his no matter how many stupid decisions he makes."

"He was smart about you. It was nice meeting you Sophie. I hope to see you around." She smiled.

"Like wise Liz." She walked through the crowd and out of my sight. Then the crowd erupted into screams as the boys came out on stage.

"Hello Los Angeles! Are you ready to party!" Ashton yelled. I laughed at his enthusiasm.

The boys started the first song and I could only look at Luke. He looked tired, worn out. He didn't have as much energy on stage as he normally does. The sparkle in his eyes wasn't as bright. My heart constricted as he looked so pained.

A few songs had passed and the boys were now joking on stage. Luke went and sat down and chugged a water bottle. Sweat was dripping down his face and he looked mighty sexy. He looked down at the front row and I could see his eyes coming closer to where I stood. When his eyes finally met mine we both froze. Neither of us moved until Michael slapped Luke on the back and he broke the eye contact.

The boys went through the rest of their songs and Luke would glance back down to me every few seconds. Finally, the beginning chords of Amnesia began to play and everyone screamed. Luke looked down at me and began singing. He never looked away from me.

I could feel a few trader tears slip down my cheeks when the ending lyrics were sung. I looked Luke straight in the eye and mouthed, 'I Love You,' to him. He gave me a small smile back and I could see his lips move, 'I Love You Too,' he mouthed back. I smiled as big as my cheeks would let me and a few tears fell down my face.

I looked down and wiped my tears away. I saw the V.I.P. pass dangling around my neck. I grabbed it and ran to the doors. When I looked up I saw the security guard.

"Danny?" I arched my eyebrow and smiled at him.

"Long time no see. I see you actually have a pass this time." He winked at me and chuckled.

"Can I go in? I really need to see Luke." I was bouncing on the tips of my toes.

"Yeah, go on ahead. It was nice to see you again Sophie."

"You too!" I yelled back as I ran down the hallway. I took the stairs two at a time trying to reach Luke faster. I was rounding the corner when I ran into a hard object. It wasn't just any hard object. It was my hard object. I looked up and Luke looked scared, nervous, and relieved all at once.

"I thought you ran. I thought you left. I thought I was going to lose you." He heavily breathed out every word. His hands came up and cupped my cheek and the back of my neck. "I am so sorry Sophie. I am so stupid. I don't know how I thought that I could live with out you. That either of us would be better off apart from each other. I never want to let you go. I love you. God damn it I love you!" He searched my eyes and looked even more worried when the tears dropped. He wiped his thumb across my cheek. I couldn't take it any more. I crashed my lips to his. 

The kiss was rough and passionate. I wrapped my hands around his neck and pulled him closer. He locked his hands behind my back and lifted me up. He spun us around in a circle while he kissed me. I pulled back and giggled as he continued to spin me. He set me down on my feet and looked at me. The smile and small glint in his eyes was mesmerizing. His whole face lit up with one emotion. Love. I intertwined my hands with his and pulled him so our chest were up against each other. I brought his hand up and rested it above my heart. 

"I love you Luke Hemmings." His smile widened as he kissed me lightly. He whispered against my lips, "I love you with all of my heart Sophie."

"Thank God you guys are back together! We couldn't handle both of you guys being so sad all the fucking time!" Michael whined as he and the boys stood behind us. 

"Fuck off Mikey." Luke chuckled and flipped him off. He turned back to me and crashed his lips to mine. I smiled against his lips and pushed myself impossibly closer to him. 

We broke apart and he walked me back to the tour bus, hand-in-hand. We climbed into his bunk and I snuggled into his chest. I drew patterns over his heart and his breath hitched when I kissed the spot over his heart. He grabbed my waist and pulled me on top of him. I looked down at him and smiled. He wrapped his arms around my back. I traced his jawline, his nose, and his lips. 

"You are beautiful," he whispered, "and you are all mine. I love you." He leaned up and kissed me.

"My heart is forever yours." I kissed him back.

We kissed for a while until we snuggled together and fell into a peaceful silence. My eyes were closing into darkness when I hear Luke whisper, "I will never leave you again. That is a promise I will do whatever it takes to keep. I love you." And then I slipped into the darkness with the man I love next to me.
