Luke's pov

To say I was nervous would be an understatement. Marc will butcher me for sure. I put my fear aside for a while and got ready for my classes, I freshen up and changed and texted my girl a good morning. I really don't wanna go downstairs at all. As much as I am scared of Marc, I am unsure of Nick's take on this and definitely don't wanna meet my parents. I leave at 7:40 and it's still 7:15, I can pass the maximum time here and then leave at the exact timing!

That will be great, the upcoming two hours will be sorted.

" Luca!" Dest barged in

" Oh hey Desty, good morning."

" Good morning. This is a Kit-Kat for you." She gave it to me and smiled

" Thanks sissy." I smiled at her as I slid the Kit-Kat in my bag. I will celebrate my escape with it!

" Have a good day." She smiled and went out

" Thanks." I needed it I guessed or maybe she guessed too

I checked the time ugh just 15 more minutes! then I am safe to go. Suddenly, the door busted open

" Lucas, good morning."

I was startled and looked up from the phone

" Good morning, Nick."

" What are you doing? I see you are ready." He closed the door and sat next to me

" I am passing my time so I can run away from Marc."

" Oh! My baby." He kissed my forehead and pulled me to his chest

I hugged him resting my head on his chest

" I am shitlessly scared right now." I mumbled

" Shh, don't worry babe it will pass." He rubbed my back up and down

" Hmm I hope so." I said and kept being glued to him

" It will be fine. He won't be that hard on you."

" I guess, check the time please."

" 7:35, let's have breakfast?"

" Uh no, I have just five minutes to leave so I will have something later in the cafeteria."

" There is no way in hell going without breakfast, you want to make him angrier?"

" No." I shook my head

" Let's go then." He patted my back to stand up

I held his hand and got up, taking my bag with me. We went downstairs and every one except the youngest two were there. I wished a sheepish morning, not even looking at Marc's way or nor anyone in this case and sat down for breakfast

Nick sat next to me and held my hand, squeezing it a bit. Thank God he is not mad at me and can actually lighten up the situation a bit for me

" Babe, here's your breakfast, this is the juice, omelet and toast." Mom put my breakfast in front of me and kissed my forehead

" Thanks mumma." I looked at her with a smile and started digging onto my breakfast

Dad and Marc aren't saying anything yet and it's making me get more nervous

" Babe, How was your outing with your friends?" Dad asked

Finally! He talked!

" It was fun!"

" Can Daddy know how it was fun?"

I giggled lightly and told him about what we did last night

" Oh cool!" Dad smiled proudly
