drunk texting ; luke hemmings

02

i grabbed my jacket - that i had taken off earlier - and put it back on along with grabbing my drink to come with me. i decided to leave right after carrie did because i wouldn't have had anyone else to talk to. i pushed opened the heavy door and tried to get to my apartment as quick as possible before the sidewalks got busy. i dodged as many bodies as i could until rock hard body hit mine causing my drink to bust and spill all over my jacket. it seeped through it and reached my warm skin - that was no longer warm thanks to the boy who had run into me.

"oh shit! oh no i'm so sorry!" he held his hands by the wet spot on my jacket as if he could make it magically disappear. i took a chance to look at the boy's face but i had to look up a little more to even find it because he was so strangely tall. he had blonde hair and blue eyes with a lip piercing attached to his lip. a bit too edgy for me, i don't know.

"no, it's fine i was on my way to my apartment anyways." the thing is it wasn't fine. i don't mean it in a harsh way I just mean it as in its not really fine that you bumped into me causing me to spill my drink that i hoped to enjoy when i got home. but, it's whatever.

"can i at least by you another drink? i feel bad. at least let me help you with the um.. uh," he kept his hands at a distance in front of the spot on my jacket, "situation on your jacket."

"honestly, it's fine. i'm good don't worry-" he cut me off as he took off his black jacket and handing it to me.

"take this please. i'm going to feel bad forever if you don't." under his black jacket was a nirvana tee and i smiled at the fact that there was a possibility of him listening to them. i finally gave in and just took his jacket, putting it around my body as i held my jacket in my hands.

"how am i gonna return this to you?" i had to look down eventually because my neck began aching for looking up too long at the boy.

"uh, keep it i guess?" he shrugged his broad shoulders and looked past behind me to stare at busy people wandering all over the place.

"are you sure? i mean i don't wanna just take it from you?" i tugged his jacket up my shoulder. it kept slipping off of me because it was so big on a little body like mine.

"well, i mean i guess i would need it back sometime?"

"just walk with me to my place? once i change into fresh clothes i can give it back to you and you can be on your way." my lips creeper into a cheeky smile as i decided to look back up at him.

"oh, alright i guess that could work." i almost grabbed his hand without thinking but then i realized i didn't know this guy so i just gently pulled his upper arm, letting him know to follow me.

i finally reached my apartment with the strange boy and fiddle with the keys on our way to my door.

"i never caught your name?" the boy suddenly spoke after a long quiet walk.

"huh?" i heard what he said i just was shocked when he spoke and that's all i could emit out of my mouth.

"your name?" he repeated. i finally got to the door of my apartment. i was a bit embarrassed about the chipped ugly paint of the door but hopefully he didn't notice.

"it's katie." i looked back at him, opening the door and hanging my keys on the nail sticking out of the wall after we both walked in.

"katie," he repeated to himself, "i'm luke." he awkwardly stood by the doorway, cupping his hands together in front of him.

luke

i watched her carefully as i broke a little silence with a cough emitted from my throat.

"could you uh- like turn around so i can change? my whole apartment is one room so.." i nodded and turned around to look out of the window, feeling an extreme discomfort come over me. i saw her reflection in the window and i tried looking away, really. but, as soon as her top came off i saw her exposed flesh and i couldn't look away. her body looked so perfect i began thinking thoughts i shouldn't have. i shook my head loosely as i screwed my eyes shut when she finally got dressed.

"okay, you can turn now." she told me. i was nervous as hell to turn around because there was something going on in my pants that i needed to hide, but couldnt. before i turned around i quickly stuck my hand down my pants to fix my situation.

"here's your jacket." i dazed at her for a moment and then came back to reality. i grabbed my jacket that she had gripped in her hands.

"thank you, katie." i smiled like a fool when i said her name. she seemed to notice and smiled back. "can we exchange numbers? i'd like to get in touch with you again."

"i don't think that's a great idea, lucas. can i call you lucas?" my lips turned into a frown as i heard her.

"how will i be able to talk to you again? and yes you can." i wanted to be able to talk to katie again. she was so pretty and i just wanted to stare at her for the rest of my life. and i'll have you know, she is the only person i let call me lucas.

"why do you feel the need to be in touch with me again? i am not that special, really." she slowly began walking towards me (with out knowing probably) and stopped as soon as she was arms length away from me.

"i don't know. you seem pretty special to me." wow, luke you fucking idiot. 'you seem pretty special to me'. i thought to myself. i am so done with myself. might as well just jump off the railing of this building that's right outside the door behind me. i noticed katie blushing, though. i decided that jumping off of this building wasn't a good idea because i just made this beautiful piece of art, standing in front of me, laugh.

"well, thank you for that. but, since you made me happy i will tell you where to meet me tomorrow," my smile widened and she continued, "i work at a children's library that is straight across from the coffee shop." i made sure i got every detail of what she said and how she said.

"okay, i will see you tomorrow then?" i began opening the door and sticking half of my body out of the door while the other half was waiting for her to answer back to me.

"yes. i will see you tomorrow lucas." the way that she said my name made my stomach whirl uncontrollably. i headed out of the building and went back to doing my business.
