Chapter 3

What the hell did I just get my self into. Today Luke and I head to Mt. Appledale. But what the hell Andy... you skipped school for a normal boy who is heartbroken. As we driving his eyes get more serious when he looks at the magazines. Pictures of Luke Hemmings goes from perfect couple to romantic with new girl. I noticed a picture it was when we were talking in the coffee shop, of course someone saw us. Luke finally looks away from the magazines and looks up at me. "Sorry." "Luke it's fine-" "No it isn't she has ruined it, my reputation, and maybe even my friendship with you!" I've now realized that I don't know who Luke's girlfriend is because he just suspects me to know. "Well I guess you don't like saying her name." "You notice haha. I'm so sorry to take you out of school for this I feel horrible." "It's fine anyway you need a tour of the town. Look at that we're here."

Aleisha McDonald, that was her name. The whole town knew her name, the romance that lasted for years. Luke and Alicia the romance that blasted and then ended. No one knows how it ended it was just over.

We get out of the car, the winds pulling us back in. As I look down from the mountain I could see the waves hitting the shore line. I sit down enjoying the view, as Luke joins me I get a text.

Text Message: Fab AF Whore

Bitch get your ass to school right now there calling home and your parents are freaking! Why didn't you tell me you were ditching I would have joined!

I turn off my phone and ignore my bitch. Kameela is the bitch, shes one of my closest friends and pretty much the biggest idiot I know.

Luke face looks up at me from his phone. As I look down I see he's deleting the old pictures of him and Aleisha.

"Oh I'm sorry I shouldn't be doing this right now.It's just I'm trying to get rid of all the memories."

"No it's fine I totally understand this has happened me with my ex-boyfriend except I wasn't really famous and all."

We sat and just looked out over the sky, the world changing every second, minute, hour, and we were quiet and just sat.

My phone starts buzzing wildly as I go to check it I check what time it is, it's 1:20 and we have been out here since 8 just sitting. I look at my phone and I see I have a text, I look over at Luke as he is looking down at his phone in shock.

Text Message: Fab AF Whore

OMFG you know I'm not Chloe but a black van came into town today.... I'll tell you the rest if you come to my house! Bye!

Luke gets up in a hurry, "Look Andy I've had amazing time today but I really have to go..."

"Ya me too, can you take me to my friend Kameela's though?"

"Yes, of course lets move."

In the car Luke was glued to his phone I've never seen him like this. He wouldn't look up, I felt invisible like I didn't exist. I just got out of the car when Paul stopped the car. "Thank you Paul."

I looked to Luke seeing if he was going to say anything. He wasn't, I slammed the door and Luke looks up like that was the most unexpected thing in the whole world.

I walk up to Kameela's front door and as if shes expecting me, she opens the door and pulls me inside.

"Oh my damn girl are you ok?"

"No I'm not I just want Michael inside of me! No stop Kameela that's inapropriate."

"Well I guess I should be leaving now..."

"No STOP I didn't tell you the news!"

"Kameela what the hell is it?"

"The boys, there here."

"Who??"

"My loves."

"You mean Nate?"

"NO! FUCK YOU! It's Calum, Ashton, Michael there in town."

"That's why Luke left so suddenly from the hill, it makes sense now."

"You skipped school with Luke, but when I ask you, you won't the hell Andy you piss me off!"

"What do you want to meet magical Michael?"

"Umm who doesn't want to meet hair dying, magical Michael! Like who are you?"

Luke POV

I head to the hotel I'd been staying at, to find the guys. I head up to my hotel room to see room service at our door with a whole buffet table going through the living room.

"What the hell is going on here?"

"We thought we'd have a little party for our long legged giraffe over here."

I look in to see Michael and Calum with there air horns and sombreros probably pissing off the people on the floor.

"Mate your home!"

"Welcome to casa da sause aye!"

"Why the hell are you guys here you never told me."

"Well we thought maybe that you'd need a little support after you know, what happened with Aleisha we thought you needed some love."

"Thanks guys but I was hanging out with a mate today."

"Was it a girl?"

"Yes, but she probably hates me now cause I was texting you guys and I didn't say goodbye."

"Asshole move right there."

"Yea, she slammed the door in my face."

"Have a beer, cool the pain, from being rejected twice in one day."

"Michael what the hell! He's hurting."

"I'm helping the pain."

"No your really not."

"Luke how's life been here in Appledale? Wait also why do you even stay here it's such a small town."

"Well its grown on to me, the people, the area, the shops. Everything is chill, its a break from the super star world you know like back in Australia."

"I get you Luke you want to live a normal teenage life, take adventures, have fun. Maybe even a girl who isn't as self obsessed as the last one was."

"Aleisha wasn't self obsesse-"

"Umm what did she care about fame, and fortune and what did you get? Both those things, I'm sorry but she was using you too make herself famous. Look now she is because of this huge break up scandal."

"Mate what even happened?"

"She cheated on me, so I left L.A. I came here the first place that came up on the map. Then the picture happened and-"

"What picture are you talking about?"

"Well I met Andy that night and-"

"Mate who is this Andy?"

"Can you guys stop interrupting? Andy is my friend and I met her the night I left L.A. as I said, and she didn't freak out that I was Luke Hemmings. I was just another customer, but I guess someone spotted me and took a picture of us sitting together which started the roomer that I was now cheating on Aleisha."

"Let me guess! Let me guess! Now she thought you were cheating on her? Am I right? If so I'm a badass psychic."

"Well your right so yesterday she called me and started freaking out. I told her were just friends and that she knows what the paparazzi does to people. Of course she trusts herself more than me, so she didn't believe me and broke my heart. I don't know what the fame has done to her but its not the girl I used to know."

I look out he window imaging the city lights of L.A with screaming fans outside, smiling, but that's not what I see I look out and I see peace. The quiet night I haven't had for a while and I just watch and enjoy it.
