The One To Save You || Luke Hemmings

Chapter 22:

Luke's P.O.V. -

I'm honestly so proud of Rosie. She's becoming a lot more confident in herself.

And about last night, I couldn't stop smiling.

I'm so happy we're at this point in our relationship.

I mean, I've loved Rose for a long time, but now she really feels the same way.

There's less than a week now until I leave for tour with the boys.

I feel like now that we've both said we love each other, we both have a lot more trust in each other for the next 8 months to come.

So anyway, its 10:05 and Rose just left. We made plans to go to the local park and just hang out and have fun and spend time together.

What to wear, what to wear. Oh wait, I know. The signature black skinny jeans and t-shirt! WHat a surprise! (Sarcasm btw)

"Luke! Come downstairs, please!" I heard mom scream from downstairs.

Ugghhh. I need to get ready. But making my mom upset is not the best thing to do..

"Okay, mum. I'll be down in a sec." I said as i threw on my shirt and headed down the stairs.

"Luke, how come you never told me and dad about Rose's parents?" Mum asked as I reached the kitchen where she was standing.

"I wanted her to tell you guys herself." I answered.

"Well, just tell her that she's got us here if she ever needs a bit of parent-advice. We're always here for her."

"Thanks, mum. I'll tell her. She likes you guys a lot."

"Well, we like here too, Lukey. I think she's a keeper. The way she looks at you is how I looked at your father when we were your age. And here we are, 3 kids later, still madly in love." Mum said, smiling.

"Okay mum. I'm only 16!" I laughed out awkwardly.

I'll tell you, my mom sometimes has this great advice, but then ruins it with something stupid or cheesy.

But I'm happy they like Rose. It makes this relationship just a whole lot better.

"Well, I gotta get going. Rosie's meeting me at the park at 11."

"Do you or her need a ride there?" She asked, showing her more motherly side.

"Nah, we're both skateboarding there. I'll be home around 5. We're spending time at the park and then going out to eat for a late lunch." I informed her. A mom's gotta know what a mom's gotta know.

"Alrighty. See ya later, baby." She said, kissing me on the forehead again.

At least Rosie's not watching this time.

And with that, I grabbed my dark blue skateboard and head out the door.

Rose's P.O.V. -

I'm so excited to spend the day with Luke. I can't believe they're all leaving me soon...

Anyway, I'm almost at the park, and I can see Luke sitting on a bench on his phone.

Might as well make this fun...

"GUESS WHO?!" I snuck behind him and covered his eyes with my hands. I said it in a voice he wouldn't recognize me with.

"Hey Ro." He guessed a bit quicker than I was hoping.

"Poooey." I said, letting go of his eyes and sitting next to him. "How'd you know it was me?"

"You smell really nice, and its always the same smell." He answered, redding a bit.
