Unexpected

10- james

Schools a bore. I've been revising for my exams for 2 weeks straight, I've been trying my hardest to focus on the work but my brain is always side tracked. My thoughts are all wrapped up, that kiss. That one kiss pushed me over the edge, it sent my kind crazy.
I pushed my text book aside and stretched out on my king size bed. My mind raced on about luke, does he actually like me? Or was it a impulse thing? I never thought I would be in this situation in my life, I used to get myself worked up if I saw a newspaper title saying ' boy band star, luke Hemmings saw with a celebrity. Are they dating?' Now I'm thinking if Luke Hemmings likes ME. I doubt he does, maybe I'm just his way of getting over Kate... As horrible as that sounds. Maybe I don't know.
It was only 7 o'clock and I felt extremely tired, I've not been sleeping recently. I get so tired during the day and then when it's finally time to go to sleep I automatically wake up! I just sit there and think. Thinking about my dad. Thinking about my problems and thinking about Luke. God thinking about Luke sends my brain to mush. I can't cope, but I can't tell him how I feel. I'll have to keep this to myself until it goes away... That's if it ever does.
I pulled on some sweatpants and my mayday parade hoodie, and decided to take a walk. I raced out the front door, dying for the feeling from the fresh breeze to hit my stressed body.
I love this time of night, it's cold but not too cold. Also no one is ever around.
I strolled down a couple of streets, it probably wasn't a good idea to walk down random streets in the dark because I can't quit make out where abouts I am. As I squinted my eyes, so they would focus, I could see a bunch of kids walking to me . As I got closer I started to panic. I recognised the gang of boy, well I used to spend all of my time with them before I realised I needed to change my life around. When I say I ' recognise them' I mean boys that's I've had intense make out sessions with in the past.
" Hey guys look who it is! " The main boy said, all of his idiot friends all went 'ooo' in unison.
I didn't even respond, I hate these boys with a passion. They bully everyone at school and somehow they get away with it.
" Oi don't ignore me" he grabbed my arm tightly. My heart started to race, but I wasn't going to show him i was scared.
" Get. Off. Me " i sounded as strong as I could but I don't think it worked. They all started to laugh. My anxiety kicked in like a bitch.
" Aw is The great Alex Thomas scared?" He smirked. " You're famous boyfriends not going to help you now, is he!" He yelled, he clenched his fists.
" Alex, I loved you and you left me! How could you! That one kiss meant more to me than anything!" He was getting super angry, did he really think that kiss meant something?
"God James get over it, that was a drunken kiss" I yelled back at him, I pushed my anxiety as side. I think anger took it's place, I don't know why I was so angry at him. Maybe it was all of the times he tried to hook up with me? Maybe it's the fact he fucked my life up.
" You... You WHAT! Don't bullshit me Alex! I've never forgotten the taste of your lips" I could feel his breathe on my skin, it was making me feel sick.
" You're deluded" I whispered in his ear. " You're a psychopath"
The last comment pushed him over the edge. He lifted his fist. It was coming at me at full impact. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain. Suddenly James fell to the floor, I slightly opened my eyes to see a dark figure on top of James and punching him many times in the face. As I opened my eyes fully I recognised the long skinny legs, and the perfect blonde hair. It was luke.
" IF YOU DARE TOUCH HER EVER AGAIN ILL KILL YOU!" He yelled whilst punching him again. I couldn't move, I don't know If I'm frozen because of James or seeing luke that angry. I had to snap out of it.
I ran over to luke and pulled his well built body off of a nearly unconscious James.
" Alex" he hugged me, tightly. It felt good to be in his arms.
" Thankyou Luke for helping me, but we need to go now!" I whispered.
He placed his finders under my chin and lifted it up and lightly pressed his lips go mine.
" anything for my princess. If that asshole touches you again I'm going to kill him" my stomach did flips.
He wrapped his arms around my shoulders and pulled me in to his chest, this is when all the tears came out.

Luke insisted on staying with me tonight, what I'm glad about. I hate being alone. What James did to me really shook me up, why is he such a asshole.At this moment in time I was sitting In my bed snuggled into Luke, I was also wearing lukes hoodie that had the sweet of luke smothered on it.
" Luke" I whispered, half asleep.
" Yes Alex" he looked me straight in the eye. His eyes remind me of the ocean; calm and easy to get lost in.
" Thankyou so much for being there today" He pulled me in to his chest again and played with my hair.
" No. Thankyou for being you" he whispered.

Luke POV

Alex. I can't stop thinking about her. I've never thought about someone so much, I think about her more than Kate. I love the way when's she's cold she snuggles in closer to me whilst she is asleep. I love the way she smiles randomly or laughs at things that isn't even funny. I love the way her tongue slightly slips out of the mouth when she's concentrating. I just love... Her?
No I possibly couldn't love Alex? What even is love? I definitely couldn't love someone if I didn't know what love was. But if love was getting butterflies every time you saw her flawless face. If love was your heart skipped a beat when she sang whilst dancing around her bedroom. If love was feeling like you've know her your whole like then I am deeply, utterly in love with Alex.
