LUKES POV

FEBRUARY 15 (the next day he hit her) 12:24

I seen Kiara's camera sitting on one of the tables in the food court, I smiled, then picked it up,

I decided to watch some of the things me and her did, I turned the camera on a selected a video, 

It was me and Kiara singing her song, I laughed as Calum turned the camera to face him, he made these weird looking faces,

"lia, feels." Calum whispered into the camera, wiping an imaginary tear away on his face,

"What are you watching?" Michael came and sat next to me,

I smiled, "Kiara's videos." I say, Michael nudged my shoulder while smirking,

I see an unfamiliar video, so I click on it,

Ashton and Kiara are making a card castle,

'Don't you dare breathe' Ashton slurred, was Ashton runk?

'you,don't breathe.' Kiara said while putting on a card, slowly ,

 I seen Ashton's finger flick the card on the bottom,

All the cards came falling down, they scattered all over the table and floor,

"Ashton!" Kiara yelled, her bottom lip stuck out, she looked so cute.

"Oops." Ashton started giggling hysterically,

Kiara started to pick up the cards as did Ashton, they put the cards in a pile at the center of the table,

then the most unexpected thing happened,a thing I would never want to see,

Ashton crashed his lips onto Kiara's, Kiara attempts to pull away but Ashton brings her closer,

"What the...WHAT THE FUCK!" I see myself get into the camera view.

"Luke! Ashton was the on-" she get cut off by me.

"Save it you slut!" I charge at her and punch her in the face. My heart drops.

Calum comes running in punching me square in the jaw.

She's holding her face, she runs towards the camera and that's it.

It ends.

Michael gets up, his fists clenching, "You son of a bitch!" He attempts to jump on me, but I tackle him to the floor.

Ashton walks by and he looks in the door, he does a double take then immediately comes to stop us from beating the shit out of eachother,

'What's going on?" Ashton's voice rung in my ears, I give him a death glare, as with Michael,

"You." I point to Ashton, "You kissed Kiara!" I feel my jaw clench,

"When?" Ashton says, confusion was plastered on his face,

"Your the one that punched her in the face, so that sums it up, she's been avoiding us because of you." Michael spat, glaring at me,

"YOU WHAT?!" Ashton turned to me, Ashton runs up to me and punches me in the face,

Michael starts joining in, Calum walked into the security room with a bored expression on his face, until he seen us piled onto the floor,

His eyes widened at the sight of Ashton and Michael beating the shit out of me,

Calum ran to us and pulled off Ashton and Michael off of me, my nose was bloody, my torso and face throbbed, they kicked me multiple times in the torso and punched me a lot in the face,

"What the fuck is happening here?" Calum's voice filled with worry,

"Luke punched Kiara in the face, that's why she's been avoiding us." Michael wiped my blood on his shirt,

"I was there." Calum looked at me straight in the eyes,

"I punched Luke in the jaw for hitting Kiara,she has a black eye because of you." Calum pointed my way.

"I don't remember any of that." I sit down, and run my hands through my hair.

"No shit." Ashton spat, " You were fucking drunk,"

"You're a mean drunk Luke." Calum crossed his arm around his chest.

I feel tears brimming my eyes, I shake my head, "FUCK!" I yell, kicking the chair.

"DId she tell you yet?" Ashton spoke up.

"Tell me what?" I croaked.

"Wow, I'm surprised she hasn't told you." Ashton smirked, " She told us."

"TELL ME WHAT?!" I stood up.

"Ash, don't." Calum gave him a death glare.

"No, I think it's time he knew." Ashton put his lips in a tight line." Okay, Kiara has a bi-polar disorder." He breathed out.

No wonder why she's been moody lately, My heart shattered, Why did she tell them, but not me?

I stormed out of the room, I look up and see Kiara smoking a cigarette, I thought she stopped. Her gaze finally meets mine, and she immediatley butts out her cigarette and flicks it off the edge. She runs away, I quickly run up the escalators and catch up with her.

"KIARA!" I call out, she keeps running, I grab her hand and swing her around to face me.

My eyes widen at the sight of her face.

Her lip is busted, and her eye is black and purple, She tries to break out of my grip, but I squeeze harder, she winces with hurt in her eyes,

"Go away Luke." Kiara says while looking down, slightly covering her eye,

I shake my head, "no." I lift her chin up, she closes her eyes, like she's expecting me to hit her,

"Kiara, open your eyes." I said quietly, her bottom lip quivers,

She slowly opens her eyes, I look look into them and see hurt,

"I'm so sorry!" My voice cracks, I bring up my hand to caress her cheek, she flinches,

"I'm not gonna hurt you Kiara." I break down, sobbing.

She pulls me into a tight hug, She seems tense at first, but then she slowly relaxes.

"I don't even remember what happened, I blacked out and, and" I couldn't finish, "I'm am so sorry Kiara" I whisper into her ear. "I'm so fucking sorry."

My choked sobs were the only thing I heard, she rubbed my back, trying to comfort me, I couldn't get over what I'd done to Kiara,

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, Kiara." I keep repeating over and over,

"I don't think I can trust anyone right now." She whispers into my ear. I pull away, wiping my eyes.

"What do you mean?" I ask her. She looks down " I've stopped trusting people."

We stand there in silence for a couple seconds, "I'm really sorry." I pull her into another hug.

"I forgive you Luke." She whispers.

I hug her tighter.

"Luke" She breathes out, "I can't breathe" I let her out of my grip.

"Sorry." I bite my lip, "I promise not to hurt you again." I grab her hand and start kissing it.

"Promise?" She mumbles out.

"I promise."
