Music Strings • Luka Couffaine

|Chapter 7|

"(Y/N) we were so worried about you!!"

A girl with ombre hair wrapped her arms tightly around the frazzled (Y/N). Luka watches from behind, a sigh of relief escapes his lips as he looks at his watch. They still have a few minutes left before the show starts.

"I'm fine Luciana. Really." (Y/N) reassured her friend. The clingy girls eyes were wide as saucers, her facial expression holding a concerned look. She gave (Y/N) and unamused look.

"Your face is tear streaked. What happened? Did he do something to you?" Luciana eyes Luka with a scary look that had Lukas legs almost jelly like from fear. He chuckles slightly and rubs the nape of his neck.

"N-no! Of course not! I just-" Luka tries to explain, but he was cut off by the ombre haired girl.

"You what? You toyed with her feelings? You cornered her and did icky things to her? Tell me!!" Luciana grumbles as she tightly hugs (Y/N)'s frail frame. Luka was bemused at her outburst.

"Luciana, enough. He helped me." (Y/N) scolded her friend. Luciana blinks profusely.

"He helped you?" She repeats.

"Yeah. He's the guy from yesterday. From Kitty Section right?" A deep voice chimed in. Luka peers to the voices direction and found a guy in a blue cap. His blue eyes, soft and gentle. He seems like the easygoing type of person. He extends his hand to Luka, with a small smile on his face. Luka takes his hand and they did a firm shake.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Luka." He says.

"I'm Bradley. You can call me Brad for short." The guy explains. Luka gives him a curt nod, then his gaze went back to Luciana. Who's eyes were almost menacing like as it darts towards Lukas direction.

"Luka there you are!!" They heard someone shout from afar. Luka peers to that direction to see his little sister Juleka, frazzled and out of breath probably from all the running she did.

"Oh hi, Jules." Luka waved. Juleka breathes heavily and our a hand on her brothers shoulder for support. A few seconds passed then suddenly all he members of Kitty Section were around Luka, their faces held worry and relief.

"Oh look it's those cool looking people from yesterday." Rose exclaimed. She gingerly waves at them with a wide smile on her face. (Y/N) unsurely waves back, and awkward smile plastered on her face.

"Where were you?" Ivan asked. (Y/N) fake coughed to grab all of their attention.

"W-we had a little situation. I'm sorry it's all my fault." (Y/N) apologizes.

"(Y/N) got herself stuck inside the locker room. So I asked the advisers if I could borrow the spare key ." Luka explains, giving his story a pinch of innocent lies. He didn't want to expose what happened. (Y/N) probably wouldn't want anyone knowing about the situation she got stuck in.

"Ooh well that's alright. It's fine. We're glad your okay (Y/N)." Juleka says. (Y/N) gives Kitty Section a small nod of gratitude.

"Thank you. I hope we all enjoy ourselves today. I look forward to a fair, friendly, and fun competition with you guys." (Y/N) said. Her hand extending out to Luka. A smile went up Lukas lips as he takes her hand and accepts the friendly handshake.

"Likewise, (Y/N). I look forward to seeing you guys play."

-

It's now time for the first round elimination. There are about 20 competitors competing in France today. 10 will go home and 10 will strive forward to the next competition.

All of the teams were both scared and nervous. Especially (Y/N) and her team. They watch as each band plays up front the stage. And after a few hours have passed, Kitty Section came up the stage.

(Y/N) watches in awe as she eyes Luka and Kitty Section play. But most of her attention was all on Luka. She was amazed at how good he was with the electric guitar, and how immaculate he looks in his outfit.

She felt something in the pit of her stomach when their eyes met, her (E/C) eyes and Lukas shining teal ones looking at each other from afar. Blush then soared her cheeks as she saw Luka do a small wink.

(Y/N) dares not to think to much of that wink. Maybe it wasn't intentional. Maybe that wink wasn't for her. Of course. There are alot of girls out there probably fangirling over Luka and his sweet guitar skills.

And she shouldn't be feeling things like this.

He's just a good friend.

She can't be crushing on him after two days of meeting.

Her small inner ramble was cut short when she heard the crowd go wild, they were all cheering for Kitty Section. Their song is a literal hit.

After their gig Luka immediately went down the stage to go to (Y/N). He jogged right up to her. His face a bit sweaty and frazzled after giving the crowd a show. (Y/N) didn't find that disturbing though. In fact, she was more enamoured by his frazzled look.

"So.." Luka started. (Y/N) eyes jolted upwards and met with Lukas teal ones. She lets out an unintentional squeak, kind of urging Luka to continue.

"How did we do?"

(Y/N) couldn't contain the smile on her face. She started jumping and squealing and fer aura was filled with absolute joy.

"You guys were AMAZING!" She cheers. She noticed that a tint of blush spread Lukas cheeks, he was flattered by her small compliment.

Luka rubs the nape of his neck and shyly looks away from the joyful beauty infront of him.

"Thank you."

"Up next is Monsters Due! Give them a round of applause!!"

(Y/N) whirled around as she hears Clara announce the next contestants. And around that time, the band started walking up the stage. Her eyes meeting with their band leaders who had a menacing gaze.

She audibly gulped as she sees her bully come up the stage.

If looks could kill (Y/N) would probably be dead by now.
