Emma's P.O.V~
I walk up to Luke while Blaine and Lizzy are talking. Luke has been in the corner for awhile so i thought i would keep him company "Hey" I say sitting in the bar stool next to him and he just looks at the room and takes a sip of his beer before saying hi back very short with no look my way "How are you doing?Sorry if you feel a little lonely or anything" I say going to grab his hand but he pulls back "You okay?"
"Yeah i'm fine" He says turning to set his bottle on the counter and i go to kiss his cheek but he avoids it "Luke, seriously what's up?" I ask looking at him intently and he avoids my direct gaze "Hey" I say softly like i'm speaking to a small child and lightly put my finger under his chin to direct him to face me and he resists "Emma I-" He starts looking down at his hands that are in his lap "You know what, it's cool, yeah, i'm just gonna go, i'll be,....around" I say getting up hastily and he doesn't even say anything, doesn't try to apologize he just groans, like what the hell did i do to him? As i walk across the room Lizzy catches up with me "Hey" She says taking a drag from her cigarette "Hey" I say back not looking at her "What was up with him?" She asks as we near a table and i sit, she sits across from me "I don't know he was being weird"
"You know he likes you?" She asks taking one last drag of her cigarette before throwing it on the ground and stomping on it lightly "Yeah, i know"
"But he didn't seem so pleased" she says this with a giggle and i laugh a little too "Yeah i don't know, he's being weird, he's never really acted like this"
"How has he acted?"
"Well we've gotten in fights and all that jazz but he's just different tonight" I shrug as i finish my sentence "How did you guys meet anyway?" She says leaning in on her elbows "Well i went to the grocery store and he kind of kidnapped me, foray if you will and i guess things just kick started from there"
"He kidnapped you?" she says this with a look of surprise and i just nod and let a small laugh
"I won't lie he's quite cute" She says looking over my shoulder at him "So you like your kidnapper, wow some Stockholm syndrome going on over here"
"Well i guess, it was only recently, he has been quite selfish and mean at times but, hey what are you going to do about it? I never knew he liked me because he can hide stuff well let me tell you that. It was only last week i found out when i was barely conscious and he kissed me, on my bloody sheets and all, but i guess love has no limits" She laughs at this, it's nice to know she finds it amusing "Did you tell him anything?" I ask looking at her breaking the silence "What no?"
"You had to have told him something about me, he wasn't trying to avoid me before i saw you guys talking, what did you say?" I ask and she looks surprised like how dare i ever ask her this "Well nothing you wouldn't tell him. For all i know you could have already told him. Emma i didn't say anything bad, okay? It's fine he doesn't see you differently because a girl he just met said so, even if i did" She says reaching across the table and touching my hand but i quickly react and get up "I'm going outside" I say heading towards the door "Need a smoke?" She says standing up ever and i stand up "Here throw them" And i hold out my hands as she does, but she walks towards me straight after "No, alone, please" I say and she stops and nods like she's saying 'yo man i respect that' and she goes to sit down "Emma, you don't smoke" Luke says getting up "Well, it's a good a time as any" I say before heading outside. Alone.
