Luke

"Yo boys I caught a glimpse of the female lead on the way over and she looks so familiar!" Ashton's loud voice lit up the room when he walked in. "Like scary familiar! Something about that red hair man." I watched from the mirror as he flopped down on the couch.

The whole band was here today even though I was the only one shooting anything today. Today I had to act like I was in love with some girl to a song about the true dead love of my life. Of all of the songs the fans could have chosen for this it just had to be the hardest song for me. Truly I cherished this song but no one, aside from the boys, truly knows what this is about. We've spun some bullshit about it just being a bad breakup from our past; I've never been able to come out and say who it was really about though.

"Luke we need the shirt you chose for the girl!" One of the female costumers held out her hand, clearly out of breath. Since this shoot was something so special to me, I picked a shirt that was her favorite color. "Perfect thank you! We will need you out here real soon!"

With a sigh, I collapsed back into my chair, my eyes zeroing in on the photo tapped to the mirror. It was the same photo that I brought with me everywhere, the last photo I have with her alive. It still doesn't feel real that she's gone, that her smile would never grace this dark world again. "You know she would be so proud of where you are today," Cal stood behind me, his gaze focused on the photo. "She was always our biggest supporter and she still is, even if she isn't here anymore."

I tried hard to hold back the tears that were begging to break free. She wouldn't want to see you cry Luke. With one last look at the photo I made my way out to set. Part of me was tempted to look into the girl's room as we passed. Red hair Ashton said...she had redish hair too.

The sound of the director calling my name prevented me from stopping by the actress's room. "Okay Luke so we are going to start by shooting some of the scenes in the bed. We will go ahead and shoot some of the individuals while we wait for our leading lady to finish up. They were running a little behind but she will be here shortly."

I was ushered to relax on the bed, the soft music from the song carrying through the empty room as I sang along to the track. The fact that we were starting this whole video shoot with the domestic scenes made this so much harder. When I wrote this song, and helped with the music video, she was the only thing on my mind. From the moment I met her I knew that she was the only person for me and still to this day I know she's the only girl I will ever truly love. No woman could ever compare to her. "And cut! Great work Luke! She's on her way out so we will give you a break before continuing."

The boys came up to me, quieter than normal. It was a little unsettling. "You doing okay bud?" Ashton broke the awkward silence with a sincere grin. Even though I love all of these boys dearly, there was just something about Ashton that made me feel comfortable to spill everything too. With him it felt like he truly understood me and he always knew what to say. "Do you need to take a break? I know this is hard."

"No, I think I can do this. I'm doing this for-" The sound of something hitting the floor interrupted me. Everyone in the room zeroed in on where the sound came from. The color left my face the moment I saw her. No...this isn't real...this has to be some sick joke. How in the hell did they hire someone who looks exactly like her? Luke, she's dead...
