Disconnected (Luke Hemmings Fanfiction)

Chapter 4

A/N sorry I haven't updated in ages, but I've had a lot of stuff to do/deal with. But hopefully now I will be back on track!! Also sorry if this chapter doesn't really connect that well with the others, it's been a long time since I've written those so it's kinda hard to connect, anyway, hope you all enjoy!! And as always, feedback and suggestions are always great.

Aah fresh start, where do I begin?? Well, firstly, I'm in desperate need of new clothes like, really desperate. I spent all my time walking around in Luke's shirts which, don't get me wrong, it's great! But I just need some stuff of my own. So I texted my bff Abi asking if she wanted to go out, while I got ready. I put on a flowery skater skirt with a white crop top and some black Chelsea boots, basically the only decent things I had.

I checked my phone to see a message from Abi "yes!! As always!! Pick you up in 20?" I chuckled to myself, Abi was always up for a good shopping trip, always.

While waiting for her i put everything I needed into my bag (black Ted Baker, basically my baby) and just sat on Twitter. I looked at all the tweets sent to Luke, and just all the support all of the boys were getting, it was amazing. I love reading all of the fans tweets and comments because I'm exactly the same as them, I just want the boys to be happy, and I'm so so proud of them.

Before I knew it I heard a knock at the door, it was Abi!
She is literally the most gorgeous girl ever, and I'm not just saying that because she's my best friend, honestly, she's stunning. She has long wavy ombré hair, gorgeous brown eyes and a figure to die for. Honestly, she's my goals, no doubt about it.

We set off to all of our favourite shops and did some major shopping, i spent ALOT of money, but I guess I deserved it, I mean I did earn it all myself and I hadn't spent any money on myself in I don't even know how long. The shop I spent most in was Mac, my holy grail. Everything in there was screaming my name so I decided to treat myself.... a lot.

Next we went to lunch while me and Abi caught up on everything we'd missed, and as always, she asked about me and Luke.
"So,how's it going? Has he asked you out yet? Has he told you he loves you? What is going on with that boy!?"

"What? No, we're just friends" I try not to smile, it fails. "Honestly, nothing's going on between us, as much as I'd like it to I really don't think he sees me in that way, which sucks but I'm just happy I get to be his best friend. I'm extremely lucky."
Abi rolls her eyes dramatically, and I know what's coming.
"Honestly, I have no idea what his problem is. Why doesn't he just ask you out? He is SO obviously into you he might as well drool every time he's around you, trust me he likes you. A lot. He just doesn't know how to tell you yet"
Me and Abi have had this conversation many many times, but every time she says it nothing changes, I feel like we're going round in circles, me and Luke, one minute I'll actually start to feel as if he loves me and then the next I'll feel like a piece of dirt on his shoe. But that's Luke for you. You just never know what you're going to get.

After lunch I decided to leave Abi and go home. Not because I didn't want to spend time with her, but just because I wanted some alone time for a bit.

As soon as I got in, I put my keys onto the half broken key rack and ran straight upstairs with all my bags. I spent about an hour trying on all of my new outfits, and deciding on which ones to keep and which ones to return. I loved most of them but there were a few that I wasn't sure on. So I thought I'd be a bit sneaky. The first one I was debating to take back was a lace black crop top, the reason I wasn't sure was because it revealed quite a lot of cleavage, but if I'm honest I did think it looked good, just a bit revealing. So I took a selfie in it and decided to send it to Luke and ask his opinion, sneaky I know but I thought I'd give it a go, see what he says, what's the worst that could happen? So I sent him a text.

"Hey!! Sorry to interrupt you on your travels 😉 but I bought this top today and I'm not sure about it, and I thought since you know me better than everyone else, you could give an opinion on whether it looks good or not 😘 love ya always xxxx"

You know when you send a risky text and you sorta get butterflies in your stomach? Well that was me. I was so nervous about what he was going to say, what if he thought it was inappropriate? Oh god, what did I do?

Almost instantly after I'd sent it I'd got a reply, several, in fact...
"Holy Shit"
"Babe"
"😍"
"Oh my god yes yes yes"
"Damn"
"Fuck I'm jealous of anyone who gets to see you in that, they're lucky shits"
I chuckled to myself, but also I was so relieved, he actually liked it?? Guess I know what I'm wearing when he comes home now.
Obviously, I had to reply.
"Haha, thank you babe, I know I can always count on you.😉😘 don't be jealous okay, I'll save it especially for you 😂👅"

Were me and Luke, flirting?? Really? Was this really happening? Wow. I hit the send button and to be honest I felt adrenaline rushing through my body.
About 20 seconds later I got a reply.
"Please do 😍 I don't want anyone else to see it, they don't deserve it."

"What and you do?"

"No, but I'm greedy baby, you should know that already, I want you all to myself 😉"

Okay what the hell is going on? This has gone past the point of flirting, did he really call me baby? Freaking out. A lot.

I replied with a subtle
"Oh shush you, I'm not THAT easy to get around 😉"

I had no idea what was going on, did he mean those things? Or was he just kidding? I'm not sure. But if I'm honest I'm hoping he wasn't joking...

I needed to take my mind off of it so I didn't overthink things, so I decided to take a long warm bath. Baths are my favourite things, they're just so relaxing and calming. It didn't work on taking my mind off of Luke though, he was all I could think about, as always. That boy. He's just so.... I don't know, but what I do know is that i love him... A lot, and I just wish I could tell him how much.
