Luke Patterson's Lover // Julie and The Phantoms

Bobby Please!

Luke and I have been dating on the down low for 5 months now. I've never been so happy. I also have never seen him smile so much.

I'm also officially the Sunset Curve dancer. It's so fun because I've been making coreo for Now or Never. It's hard because I don't dance to this fast kind of music, but I'm making it work.

After every practice Luke and I sneak to our cafe. We sit at our spot and the waitress takes our order.

Laura - I can't believe we've been doing this for 5 months...

Luke - I know. It's working so well. I think we are happier together.

Laura - Definitely... I just think we should tell Bobby. I feel guilty for keeping this from him...

Luke - I don't think so. He will kill me if we tell him.

Laura - Then let me slowly talk to him and see what he will do.

Luke - Ok... I trust you. But I don't want him to be the reason you have to leave.

Laura - I won't leave the band ever. And if he isn't going to be happy for his sister then I'll hate him forever and he hates when I don't talk to him, well ignore him, so if he doesn't want that he better be happy for us.

Luke - Your a mind fuck I swear.

Laura - I know...

Luke - I love you

Laura - I love you too

We cuddle in our booth and our drinks arrive.

Luke - I don't ever want this to end

Laura - Me too

As we said that Alex, Reggie and Bobby walk in... Shit.

Bobby - LAURA?

Laura - Hi Bro...

Bobby - What are you doing with Luke?

Luke - Dude you need to chill, let's all go outside so we don't make a scene.

Laura - Agree.

Bobby punches Luke in the face. Reggie and Alex pull him back. I run to Luke

Laura - BABE!

Luke - I'm ok, just a blood nose.

Laura - Bobby. You. Me. Walk. Now...

I walk with Bobby. Alex and Reggie help Luke to the garage.

Laura - Did you have to punch Luke in the face like that?!

Bobby - Look. I just saw what I saw. Which was my best friend with my sister in a flirtatious way. I had to do something.

Laura - That doesn't give you the right to punch him.

Bobby - So... What were you doing there with Luke?

Laura - Before I explain please be open minded and be happy for me.

Bobby - We'll see.

Laura - You see. I've always liked Luke and you know that. Ever since you introduced me to the band. He told me he felt the same way about 5 months ago, which led us to date and have been for the past 5 months... But as you can see it has improved my depression.

Bobby pauses in silence. Then hugs me.

Laura - Say something Bobby.

Bobby - If he makes you happy then... I can't be the one who makes your depression worse... Does Luke know about... You know...

Laura - No and he never will.

Bobby - You shouldn't keep secrets from your boyfriend.

Laura - I'll tell him, just not right away.

Bobby - If you don't tell him. I will.

I roll my eyes and walk to the garage.

Luke tells me he had a falling out with his mother and doesn't want to go back so he is staying in our garage.
