Chapter 6

Luke's POV
-----------------------------
I was so nervous when Dani told me that we were going to the hospital, I mean they wouldn't call you out of school for nothing serious. We were at a red light and I look over at her, damn she is so frickin beautiful, and funny, and sweet. God, I know I'm falling for her, but this hard? I know most people don't believe in love so soon, but once you've met this girl it's hard not to. We are pull up to the hospital and walk inside.
"Name" the lady behind the counter says when we approach her.
"Daniel Evans,"
"Oh, you're here for your parents sweetie?" Dani just nods. " Room 262 floor 2" the lady says with sadness in her voice, Dani doesn't notice but I sure do. I wonder what's so bad, what happened?
"Hey are you ok Luke you look a little out of it?" She says and I take her hand reassuringly.
"I'm fine, I just don't know what could be so urgent about your parents." I say shrugging.
"I hope they died," she says and rubs the brand new cigar burn from this morning, I hate her God damn dad.
"Well we're about to find out" I say and give her hand a squeeze she looks at me and smiles. We walk into the room and there are three doctors and Dani's parents are on two different beds, and they h-have r-red bands on. Shit! They're dead. Her parents are dead, we're will she live, how will she cope with this? She's to young for messed up shit like this. She hasn't seen it yet. Oh no.
"What, what are you looking at? What's wrong?" She asks. I was about to tell her but the doctor turns around at the sound of her voice.
"Miss Daniel?" He asks. He's tall and skinny.
"Yep, that's me." She says while nodding, "oh and this is my best friend Luke"
"Ma'am we have some very, very bad news, your parents died in a very bad car accident." He says while giving her a picture of her parents now messed up car.(in the picture at the top)
"Oh my god!" She cries, literally cries. She is balling and I'm holding her on the ground because she threw herself on me. I'm just rubbing her back crying with her,not as hard of course but just a little. I'm just whispering in her ear only so she can hear it " babe this is what we wanted, it's gonna be fine, please don't cry." And in return she whispers to me
"These are tears of joy." And that makes us both start giggling. The doctors left a few minutes ago.
" Dani, where are you gonna live? Your not 18 and you don't have a job or a car or anything?" She looks at me. We are still hugging in the ground. She is about to say something but the doctor walks in. We both get up.
"So do you have a living situation figured out yet?" He asks Dani. I pipe in and say,
"Yes sir, she is coming to live with me. I'm 18 and my apartment is paid off." I look down at her and she is looking strait at me and nodding her head.
"Yes sir I'll be living with Luke." She says and he nods and writes it down.
" The funeral, when will it be taking place?" He asks
"Sunday," she says an he writes that down as well. Is she really coming to live with me? I'm so excited, and I'm gonna ask her out on a real date once we get situated. Let's face it it's about time, right? We are in the car on the way to her house when she says to me,
"Luke, I'm so happy, there gone , it's almost the end of high school, which means no bullying, and I'm living with my best friend." She smiles at me.
"Dan I'm so happy your living with me now, let's go get your shit." I say while smiling at my girl. My girl. I like the way that sounds. She laughs and we walk in the house. We are up in her room and you can't even see her walls from so many band posters. Her closet is filled with clothes and I have to admit she has really good taste and style, man I love her.
She takes out five suite cases and fills one with posters,two with clothes, one with shoes, and the last with makeup and toiletries. She gives me three and she takes two. We are about to walk down the stairs when the doorbell rings. She walks down and I tell her I'm going to the bathroom. I come out the bathroom and go down stairs to see Michael kissing Dani, she's pressed against the wall, hands pushing his chest, eyes wide.
"Michael what the hell are you doing here man?" I ask trying to play it cool, even though I'm dying inside, even though she wasn't kissing back it still hurts to see it. He pulls away and looks at me with wide eyes.
"Oh hey Luke, what are you doing here?" He asks and I come closer and bring Dani next to me.
"Dani's parents passed away in a car accident today and she's not a legal adult yet and doesn't have a job so she is moving in with me because we are besties and my apartment is paid off." I say and sling my arm around her shoulder.
"Dani I'm so sorry about your parents and I was just here to give you this," he says and hands her a folded piece of paper. We watch him leave and when he does she turns to me and says,
"Luke I didn't kiss him back, I tried to push him away and I hated his lips on mine."
I look at her perfection even when she has cigar burns on her arms and bruises on her cheeks she is perfect.
"Good. Maybe you'll like my lips on yours." I say and smash my lips on hers, while putting my arms on her waist, she puts her arms on my neck and kisses back. We pull away panting and I ask,
"Did you like that?" Damn she's a good kisser.
"Tremendously" she says with a smile
