Ruby's POV

"I'll see you later!" I called to Danni as I exited the house and headed towards the car, I needed to get some answers from the boys.

After a couple of minutes I was at the apartment and I jumped out, quickly locking it before walking up the pathway and through the front door.

"I'm back." I called, waiting for the response of anyone.

Beau's head popped around the corner, plastered with concern as he saw me. He didn't say anything, he just looked at me - I could tell he wanted me to tell him everything that Danni had said.

"Is Luke in?" I asked bluntly.

"He's in his room," He replied quietly, almost seeming scared to ask me anything about what happened last night.

I nodded and ran upstairs, trying to plan what to say as I headed towards the bedroom door. I pushed open the door to see him styling his hair in mirror, at least he was presentable.

His eyes flicked towards me through the reflection in the mirror and his face dropped slightly. "Is Danni okay?" He asked as he turned around.

"She's coping." I replied, walking a bit further into the room. "She told me everything, about LA that is."

He looked down in guilt as he took a deep breath in. "I didn't know how to tell you, I was scared you'd hate me for leaving." He said with meaning.

"Why are you even going?" I asked, avoiding his comment.

"We have to film the movie, I'm not going out of choice." He said, making the scenario more clear. "Plus we only found out Sunday."

I nodded, trying to take it all in myself now that I knew the whole story.

His eyes suddenly widened as he looked at me with a smile. "You should come!" He grinned. "You'll love it!"

"That would be amazing Luke but I can't." I smiled sadly.

"Why not though? You won't need a job, you can FaceTime your family and friends. It won't be forever anyway!" He continued to smile.

"I guess so... It's just Danni. I wouldn't want to leave her. After all, we started this adventure together, I can't carry on without her." I said.

"What about me? She can visit can't she? I bet she wouldn't want to be the one to hold you back either." He stated.

I shrugged my shoulders, the invitation was so sudden. "Well, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity." I smiled.

"That's the spirit!" He grinned as he grabbed hold of my waist. "We can go and tell the others if you want?"

"Sure." I smiled as he pulled me up from the bed and led me downstairs into he living room where the others were apart from Jai.

"Guess who's coming to LA with us.." Luke said as we entered the room.

"Who?" Daniel asked.

Luke looked at me as he chuckled, directing his head at me. "Take a guess you dickhead." He laughed.

"Ruby?!" He asked, looking overly surprised which made us all laugh as I nodded with a grin. "Yay!!!" He screamed as he took me into a huge hug, the others joining in in no time, almost suffocating me.

"Shall I invite Danni?!" Beau asked excitedly, making me mentally facepalm. He didn't realise it wasn't that simple with girls.

"You could try but she isn't there to come whenever you suit it." I said stubbornly, not meaning to come across in a harsh way but he did deserve it.

"Ugh, I be fucked everything up haven't I?" He sighed, knowing how wrong he was to break up with her.

I nodded along with James as we both knew he had made the wrong decision.

"Anyway, I'll have to persuade my parents next so don't get your hopes up. And tell Danni." I sighed. "I'll go back to my apartment later to see her."

Now I just had to count down the days until we were finally going to LA.
