Ch. 6 Woof

*LUKE'S POV*

Nicole scoffed as I brought her into my house.

"You've got to be kidding. You live here?" She asked.

"Yeah, why?" I asked, before pushing her up the stairs, desperate for them NOT to see her. "Go, go. Let's go."

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Got to go upstairs. Got to go." I told her.

"Stop pulling me!" She ordered. Yah no.

"I'm sorry. I just..."

"Where are we going? Luke!" She complained.

"I'm sorry. I just don't know..."

"Don't know where to hide me?" She finished.

"No, I'm not hiding you. It's just that I don't want these particular people to see you right now." I said getting to e top of the stairs and looking down.

"And because I'm not a movie star." She said.

"No! Okay, because I don't want anyone asking questions and neither do you. Who is she? Where did you meet her? Are you two dating?" I said acting like an interviewer or a pap.

"Dating?" She said bewildered.

"Yeah, they make stuff up. Come on." I said pulling her into a room. "The guestroom. Be my guest." I said.

"Do I have a choice?" She sassed.

"Not really. I'll be right back. Just... stay." I said walking out.

"Woof." I heard her say. I walked down the stairs and outside to where my parents are.

"Good to see you. I'm glad you came. Thanks for coming. Hey! Hey, how are you? So nice to see you. Looking good, buddy." I said as I passed people. I don't know who most of them are but might as well be nice.

"Hey. It's about time." My mom said as I walked up to them.

"Hey, Mom." I said.

"How you doing, bud?" My dad said.

"Good to see you." I said to Mr. Matthews.

"Luke, my daughters." He said lightly pushing the two girls towards me.

"Oh, yeah. What's up?" I said to them, smiling. I love my fans.

"Oh, I think they wanted to ask you something." Matthews said.

"Yeah. What is it?" I asked the girls.

"Can you sing us a song?" They asked shyly.

"Of course, absolutely. I've got something new I'm working on." I told them. "Can you grab me a stool?" I asked my dad.

"Sure, Luke." He said going to get one.

"You know where your guitar is?" Mom asked.

"Yeah. Of course." I said going to get it.

"You're gonna love this." I heard her say as I sat on the stool my dad got me.

"Hey, everybody. This is a little something I'm working on for my next album. I hope you like it." I said and started playing my guitar.

" I'm no superman
I can't take your hand
And fly you anywhere
you wanna go, yeah
I can't read your mind
Like a billboard sign
And tell you everything
you want to hear
But I'll be your hero
'Cause I, I can be everything you need
If you're the one for me
Like gravity, I'll be unstoppable
I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy
with heart and soul
But if you're the one for me
Then I'll be your hero
Oh, I'll be your hero, yeah
I'll be your hero" I sang. I looked up and saw Nicole out on the balcony watching so I shot her a smile.

"So incredible
Some kind of miracle
That when it's meant to be
I'll become a hero, oh
So I'll wait, wait, wait, wait for you
Yeah, I'll be a hero, yeah
'Cause I, I can be everything you need
If you're the one for me
Like gravity, I'll be unstoppable
I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy
with heart and soul
But if you're the one for me
I'll be your hero
Yeah, yeah, I'll be your hero
Yeah, I'll be your hero
Hero" I finished and everyone applauded.

"Great. Great.So, girls, am I the greatest Dad in the world or what?" Matthews said and I looked up to the balcony to see Nicole not there. My eyes widened and I pushed through everyone to get in the house.

"Hey! Where you going?" I said as I found her in my garage.

"Anywhere but here." She said.

"What did I do now?" I commented.

"You said you'd take me home. When?" She said.

"Just pick a car. I'll take you home." I told her.

"No!" She said. Okay then....

"Fine, we'll walk. Where does Grandma live again?" I asked.

"Hollywood." She stated.

"Oh, that's great. We'll get there... on Tuesday." I said and she sighed.

"Okay." She said and I smiled.

"Okay?" I said. (DON'T YOU DARE)

"But here are the rules.You drive me straight there, drop me off, and then you come back to your fabulous life." She said. I walked to one of my cars and opened the door for her, but she got in a completely different one!

"What's the purpose of that? I don't get it. Why does she do this?" I wondered to myself.

*NICOLE'S POV*

Luke pulled out onto the street and turned the radio on. His song was playing. of course!

"There's something about
the sunshine, baby
I'm seeing you in a whole new light" he sang.

"Really?" I said and he lowered the volume.

"What? I thought you'd like it." he said simply

"Let me guess. You thought I'd be dying to ride in a car with Luke Hemmings as he sings to one of his big hits. A fan's dream come true!" I said. "There's just one problem." I said.

"Which is?" He asked.

"I'm not your fan." I told him.

"You don't..." He said clearing his throat."You don't like my music?" He asked.

"No, I like your music. I'm just not crazy about... you." I said.

"But you don't even know me." He said.

"Precisely." I stated.

"You know, I think if you... I think if you did know me, you'd really like me." He told me.

"Oh, turn here." I said completely ignoring his comment.

"Thanks for the ride." I said as he pulled in the driveway to my grandma's house.

"Hey, look, Nicole. Look, I just wanna say I'm sorry." He said as I got out.

"Noted. Are we done now?" I said. I just want him to leave!

"Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I guess we're done." He said.

"Good." I said walking away from the car and into the house.

"Okay, bye." I heard him say. FINALLY!
