Lukes POV:

My eyes flickered open as the sun shone through the window, I was staying at my mums place so I was in my old room. Grace was sleeping next to me. Every bit of her remember need me of Emilee. But I broke up with her. Anger boils through my veins but I keep it contained. I looked around my old room, band posters were everywhere my old guitar, picks all across the floor. However I still felt alone. I thought I had made the right decision...I Thought wrong.

I slept in yesterday's clothes, so I stepped in the shower, I tried to wash away my emotions and wants, but I just couldn't they just remained. And it hurt. I washed my body and hair and stepped out, I got changed into black skinny jeans a white t shirt and my all black converse. I styled my hair like usual and then just sat there. Grace was still asleep. I stroked her soft hair gently trying not to wake her. I was just about to head out the door when suddenly something. Caught my eye.

I headed over towards the window sill, There was a white Polaroid camera, it was mine my old one. Also there was an envelope there, it was sealed shut and had an "L" with a kiss on the front. I didn't want to open it, not just yet. I grabbed a black backpack and put the Polaroid camera and the envelope In it. I then slung over ,y shoulder and went downstairs.

"I'm going out" I said as I walked into the kitchen and grabbed an apple.

"Luke?" she asks as I begin walking to the door.

"Uh huh" I ask.

"Don't worry " she replied, I stood there for a bit and then shrugged my shoulders and began quietly walking out so Grace couldn't hear me. But then just as I was stepping outside my mum mumbled something under her breath, but I don't think she wanted me to hear but I did, loud and clear.

"You need her"

Then I was gone. I took out mums car, she wouldn't mind, she likes to walk. So I took the opportunity to take it. I decided to go to a place only I knew about, it was a place for me to be alone. I hadn't been there in years, it was weird. I drove through the back roots I usually cycled and then I parked the car. I got up and scrambled up the hill. It was quite early in the morning so it was a bit cold, once I got up I sat down, it was just as I remember.

I looked down on the sea, as it hit the cliff face. Birds circled above me. I just sat there, thinking about the past, the future, and the present, all making me feel terribly broken inside. I pulled my bag round. Off my back and sat it between my legs, I opened it and took out the envelope. A part of me wanted to open it and apart of me didn't want to open it. I put it back in the bag and sat the bag behind me, I got out my phone and played one of my favourite songs by fall out boy.

The lyrics of "alone together" rolled out my speakers. This was one of our songs, we would always listen to it. I got my bag again and took out the envelope. I just stared at it. I traced my finger over the "L" again and again. Then I decided to open it.

I ripped off the top of the envelope.I looked inside, there was a Polaroid picture. I turned it over. And my eyes met with that familiar face. It was a picture of me and Emilee kissing, (picture on first page even though Emilee has blonde hair lol) I traced my fingers over her paper face. Then I saw writing under the picture.

"Don't be sad" He said to her.
"I'm trying not to be" she replied.

I gasped a little, what have I done? To her. To myself. To grace. To us...I couldn't imagine Emilee being so upset. She was always so happy and bubbly. What have I done? I've broken her, hurt her, torn her apart. I'm not meant to do that...im meant to be there for her. She's probably crying right now.
