"This wasn't part of the deal." I was awoken by whisper-shouting.

I sat up, stretching and moving my hand to my back that was in agonizing pain that I realized was from falling asleep on the very small, very uncomfortable couch.

"Good morning, sunshine." I heard Calum say.

"Morning, I yawned, not paying attention to anything and heading to my bathroom.

Once I finished washing my face, I went to brushing my teeth and while doing that all the memories from last night start flooding in and I suddenly remember Luke was here.

"Luke, I know your up." I said, walking into my room.

"You caught me." He chuckled slightly, sitting up.

This is what I hated most, the awkward tension that had formed, the pretending like nothing has happened, like we're normal best friends again. I despised it, I wanted to scream and fight and figure out what the fùck was going on.

"Please tell me I didn't do anything stupid last night." He groaned, leaning over so he was sitting on the edge of the bed with his feet dangling off.

"Did you suddenly forget I have known you for over half of my life? I have seen you drunk plenty of times, enough to know you always remember the previous nights events."

"I do, I just don't want things to be anymore awkward than they already are ba- Evie."

I sarcastically laughed at the use of my full name, something he rarely ever used, it was always just 'Eves' I guess we weren't on that level anymore, or maybe he was just being stubborn and again, pretending like our friendship never existed in the first place.

"You were with me when I went to sleep, why weren't you here when I woke up?" He sounded disappointed, something that angered me.

"I went out to talk to Calum and I guess I passed out from being so tired."

"You're getting enough sleep, right? I know that was always an issue, and-" he rambled on.

"Stop." I said bluntly.

"You don't get to care, Luke. You don't get to call me when you're fùcking drunk and interrupt my date, my night. Yes, I have a sleeping problem and yes, it went away because I always had you next to me, but now I don't so just stop, stop confusing me, stop with everything, I don't want you in my life anymore. Go get ready, as will I and once your family shít is over and tomorrow rolls around I want absolutely nothing to do with you." I screamed.

"Eves, please-"

"Just go, Luke. I'm too tired for this, I'll be ready soon." I sighed.

-

"How'd you even get here last night?" I asked once we were in my car, breaking the silence.

"That I actually don't remember." He laughed as quietly as possible.

"Eves, about what I said last night-"

"No need to bring it up, I know, you were drunk, you didn't mean it."

"But I did-"

"Luke, now isn't the time." He sighed out of defeat.

It was a quiet drive, Luke looked out the window most of the time except for the couple occasional times I caught him staring at me for whatever reason.

I hated being around Luke now, not only because things aren't how they use to be but they make me want to think about how any of this happened? One day, everything is okay, and the next we aren't even speaking to each other.

We had sèx for crying out loud, yet here we are, acting like enemies or complete strangers when we have more history with each other then most people do, and I don't know how to feel anymore, what to think, I just don't know.

"Isn't everyone going to be asking where you were last night?" I asked as we pulled into his driveway.

"Oh, yeah..."

I could tell he seemed lost, I was always the one to think ahead and I knew I would have to do it now as well, good to know Luke is still his typical self for the most part.

"We had a movie marathon, lost track of time, you just crashed at mine."

"You're always so good at coming up with stuff on the spot that isn't too overdone." That made us both laugh, but I quickly stopped.

Getting out of the car and heading to the door made me realize, my bítchy attitude towards him had to stop right now. I took a deep breath in and out, getting prepared for the rest of the day and night that is to come.

"Ready to be best friends again?" Luke asked but quickly shut his mouth when he realized exactly what he said.

He grabbed my hand, knowing no matter who it is that I get nervous when it comes to things like this. I had to keep telling myself I have met these people before, I'll be okay, after this is over I never have to deal with Luke again.

Never having to deal with Luke again, did that sound good or bad? I couldn't decide.
