Unpredictable

Chapter 3- So I'm Not a Freak.

Luke's P.O.V

I really wanted to talk to Vanessa but she walked out of class and walked home before I could say anything. So, I walked home slowly thinking about what I could do.

I can't even call her, cause I don't have her number. Wait a minute. She is friends with Tarra right? Maybe she has it. I'll text her.

Tarra's P.O.V

I was just slowly walking home when my phone buzzed... It was from Luke.

Luke: "Hey Tarra. Would you happen to heave Nessa's number?" :)

I smiled to myself, this could be the start of something special. I think they would be great together. I grabbed the piece of paper with vanessa's number on it and typed it in my phone to send to Luke.

Me: "Yep, It's 555-1010" :D

Luke: "Cool, thank you so much Tarra. See you tomorrow. x" :D

Me: "No problem, yep bye." xD

I hope they end up together, they could double-date with Michael and I. That would be so much fun. I walked the rest of the way home smiling while listening to some One Direction.

I could tell by the conversations Vanessa and I have had that she's more into punk-rock banks than boy bands, so her and the boy's will get along amazingly. I'm so glad I finally made a friend and Vanessa is amazing.

I made it home after a twenty minute walk. I walked into the kitchen to find a note.

"Hey Tarra, your father and I have just gone to visit a friend. We will be back home before dinner. Bee good. Love you! xxxx." I grabbed it, crumbled it up, and chucked it into the trash.

"Stupid step-mum." I mumbled to myself.

I went upstairs into my room and put my Iphone on the dock and played more music while scrolling through Tumblr.

Vanessa's P.O.V

I woke up to my phone going crazy on my bed-side table. I grabbed it and looked at the caller ID. It was an Unknown Caller. Must be Tarra, I thought.

"Hello" I said sleepily into the phone.

"Hey, it's Luke. Sorry did I wake you, I'm so sorry." I was surprised to hear Luke's voice. I don't remember giving him my number.

"Oh, hey. No it's okay" I say, I was worried about what he was going to say next.

"Uh, Tarra gave me your number if you were wondering." He said kind of laughing. Oh, so I haven't got memory loss.

"Okay, cool! What's up?" I ask.

"I just wanted to say sorry for, you know, what happened today." He said sadly. I could just imagine his perfect smile fading away.

"What happened today?" I asked playing dumb hoping her actually didn't see my scars and it was all in my stupid imagination.

"Vanessa, I saw your scars... (He went silent for a minute, then continued) ..I'm sorry I grabbed your arm. I'm sorry I stared at you. I was just shocked and didn't know what to do, that's all." He said sweetly into the phone.

"Ohh, right! Uh, it's okay. I probably should have said something instead of running away like I did." I say. My thinking is never really logical.

"It's not your fault. It's mine. I would have don't the same thing. I should have said something." His tone was dropping and he sounded sad.

"It really isn't your fault Lukey, don't sweat it." I cringed at how horrible that sounded.

"How recent are they?" He asked, his question took me off guard. I don't want to tell him yet. I don't know if I can fully trust him.

"Uh, Luke. I will tell you when I'm ready. I only just met you and I don't know how trustworthy you are. I mean i trust you and all but... sorry." I felt bad turning him down like that, but I have horrible trust issues.

"Oh, that's okay, I understand! I'm here for you if you ever need to talk." I couldn't help but smile at his cuteness.

"Thank you Luke, that means a lot! Hey, can what happened just stay between us? I ask, I don't need another whole school against me.

"I wont tell a soul! Well I've gotta go help mum with dinner. See you tomorrow beautiful." I got instant butterflies when he called me beautiful.

"Bye Luke. Thank you again!" I say calmly, despite the insane zoo running around in my stomach at the moment.

I could hear his mom come into the room and say 'Say goodbye Luke."

"Goodbye Luke" he said with a giggle followed by the Dial tone.

I was happy with the phone call, so maybe he didn't think I was a freak. I've really got to think more positive. I quickly saved Luke as a contact in my phone and then headed downstairs.

I walked into the kitchen to find my mum making lasagna, my favourite.

"Hey Vanessa, how was your first day?" mum asked awkwardly.

"Ugh, great." I answered smiling.

"Make some friends?" She asked sounding concerned for once.

"Yep. They are amazing!" I say, trying not to sound too over-excited.

"That's great love, will I get to meet them soon?" She asked. What is this, Twenty Questions?

"Uh, I don't know. I guess so." I answered.

"Okay." She said, like I mentioned before, we're a little weird at the moment.

"Hey mum, can I go to a concert on Saturday with my new friend Tarra?" I asked hoping she would say yes.

"Of course, who's the band?" Yay! I can go.

"Uh, they're called 5 Seconds of Summer. They're some students at school. They're actually really nice guys." I said with a huge smile on my face.

"Oh, lovely! Where is it?" She asked, again with all the questions..

"I have no idea, I will ask Tarra later and get back to you." She just nodded and went back to cooking.

I left the room and went into the living area to find my 15 year-old brother, Jake, sitting there watching T.V. My brother and I are usually really close, we have the odd fights once and a while, but other than that we are as close as a brother and sister can be.

I went and sat beside him and asked him about his day. He said he made heaps of new friends. Mum thought it would be a brilliant idea to send us to separate school, we were both upset by that. But I'm sure we'll survive.

After watching I.V with Jake, we had tea and then I hit the shower and hopped into bed. I was hoping that Tarra would call so I could tell her about the concert, but she never did so I decided to have an early night. It was about 9:00 when i went to bed
