Mixed Up ~ lukloe

Chapter Six

Luka woke up to the smell of chocolate. He followed it to the kitchen, but was stopped.

"L-luka! You're awake!" the nervous blonde stammered.

"Yeah, I just got up,"

"Oh," she said, "Could you go wait outside, maybe shower?"

"Are you saying I smell?"

She blushed, "No,"

He stretched his arm over his head, "Well, I'm going now,"

"Bye!" she said quickly, closing the door. After he finished bathing, Luka dressed in a light blue t-shirt and a pair of black jeans. He knocked softly on the kitchen door, "Can I come in?"

"Wait one second," she said.

He took out his phone and leaned against the wall. He unlocked it and was shocked to see over 1 thousand TikTok notifications. The only reason Luka had downloaded the app had been to promote Kitty Section. Now that he wasn't in it anymore, he'd changed the account to a more personal one. He posted snippets of songs he'd been working on and videos of him and his friends.

He had a couple hundred followers, and he didn't take it seriously. But today the number had risen to 11.2k. He saw that his most recent video had over 50 thousand likes and even more comments. Hardly any of the comments were about the video.

The top one was

'OMG, @chloebourgeois is crazy for not liking you,' it had over 2 thousand likes.

He kept scrolling.

'If @chloebourgeois doesn't want him, I'll take him!'

He tapped on Chloe's profile. Her most recent post was her with a picture of Luka drawing devil horns on his head, while complaining about how unlucky she was.

Most of the comments were tagging him and dragging Chloe. Her second most recent post was her and some guy. She was kissing him on the cheek and they were laughing. She'd captioned it just a normal day in my life lol.

He scrolled down and saw more videos of them. Them at a fancy restaurant, them at the beach, them dancing. Suddenly he felt sick to his stomach.

"Luka I'm ready— oh," she grabbed his phone. He stared at her icily.

"It's not like that, I swear!" she said nervously.

Luka felt his face heating up as she spoke, "Then what is it like? You tell me you love me then talk sh!t about me behind your back, what am I to you?"

"Luka, let me explain," she started.

"Chloe, do you not realize you're hurting me? I like you, I really do. It's just difficult," his voice quavered.

"Luka, that guy and I, we aren't together, we never were,"

"Then why were you kissing him? Your eyes were closed! You were smiling! Tell me the truth,"

Chloe sighed, "It wasn't a real relationship, after you ruined my reputation, I needed a comeback,"

"So you're saying it's my fault?" he demanded, "Don't twist this around!"

"I didn't say it was your fault! But you had something to do with it! Maybe if you never ruined my life this wouldn't have happened!"

"I didn't ruin your stupid life!" he argued, "If anything I increased your popularity,"

"Shut up Luka," she said.

"No, I'm not going to shut up Chloe, I have the right to be upset. You're just upset because I found your stupid account and those videos!"

"Shut up Luka! You don't know anything!"

Luka turned around, stomped out of the house and slammed the door.

Choe collapsed on the floor and deleted the videos of her and Felix one by one. She was about to delete the video of Luka when she saw all the attention it was getting.

Luka was on a really long walk. It's been a couple hours since he'd left.

He must be really mad at me. Chloe thought, But I guess I deserve it.

After a few more hours she began to worry. Luka was never out this long, but then again he was never out. Still, she had a feeling something was off.

She called Marinette, after typing a long paragraph about why she was calling someone.

Marinette answered instantly, her cheerful face filling the screen.

"Marinette, I need your help,"

"Why? What happened? I was about to come over anyway,"

"Luka left," she said her eyes filling with tears as she remembered him leaving.

Marinette's mouth formed a perfect 'o'. "We're all here, we were going to surprise you. Come outside,"

Chloe walked outside and gasped when she saw Marinette's huge minivan.

"Adrien, move," she said teasingly.

"Why is Adrien here?" she asked, memories of her childhood flooding her mind.

Adrien sat in the driver's seat. As soon as he started driving, Chloe turned around to face Marinette.

"Where are we going?"

"It's 9pm, Luka would've come home by now," Marinette explained, "After...after some stuff happened, he never stayed out late, except for that-"

"Except for what?" she demanded, "Finish that thought!"

Marinette shook her head, "Luka should be the one to tell you,"

"We need to find him," Alya said.

"Yeah," Nino agreed, "Besides, it can't be that big of a secret— ow! Alya!"

"You guys are missing the point, Luka could have gotten kidnapped, he could be getting—"

A tear rolled down Chloe's face.

Adrien bit his lip, "I'm sorry Chlo, that was harsh, but—"

"No, you're right Adrien," she mumbled, "Keep driving,"

No one spoke after that. They were all thinking about what he'd said. Could Luka really be in danger.

Adrien pulled up to a gas station and was about to open the door when Chloe grabbed his arm.

"Adrien," she hissed, "There's a creepy van over there!"
