✴️Everything Changed At 21 (Luke Bryan fic)

I See Only You

Readers I just realized something when I went back and read the chapters. So Chloe's not dating Luke's manager 🙄 I meant to put she's with his friend Carter 🤦‍♀️ Sorry my bad

1 week later
The trip home from Nashville was awkward for me. Chloe and I spent most of the time with Tate and Bo. Because I can't bare being around Luke. Chloe's tried convincing me to hear him out but everytime I think about it the image of him and Caroline kissing comes back to remind me. Climbing out of the bunk on the tour bus I sighed walking around because I couldn't sleep. Pulling opened the door I plopped down on the couch watching the landscape pass outside the window at 1 in the morning. Foosteps came around causing me to lift my head expecting Luke but it's actually my best friend. Chloe gently closed the door coming to sit across from me on the long couch. "You really should hear him out Y/n."

She tried seeing me roll my eyes with a scoff. "There's nothing I need to hear from him, Chlo. I saw and heard what I needed to. He wants to get back together with his ex wife. Fine go right ahead. Once we're back in Indiana I'll never have to see him again." She opened her mouth to rebuttal but I raised my brows at her with a glare where she changed the subject to herself instead of my ruined relationship with a country music star.

"Well I might be taking a trip a few days later when we get home...with Carter. He finally asked me to be his girlfriend." She held back her smile until I fling my arms around her in an exciting hug. She wrapped her arms around me smiling too. Through all the craziness with Luke somehow she manages to fall in love with his friend while on tour. Even if I was furious with my boyfriend you could say, that didn't mean I couldn't be overjoyed for my best friend. For the remainder of the time until we got tired we just talked about her and Carter which I was perfectly fine with at the moment. The next time I wake up we're outside my house and Chloe was in the driveway talking with her boyfriend. Grabbing my bags from the bus I heard someone stop on the stairs when I set my bags down on the driveway. Rising to my feet I paused seeing Luke leaning in the doorway a weak smile on his face. Walking up to him it takes everything in me not to run to his arms and kiss him. To follow him wherever his music career would take him and his two little boys. "Thank you for letting us come along...it was fun." Sticking my hand out I waved bye before he waved bye to.

I've been asleep for most of the day since all that traveling took a lot out of me for a few weeks. Rubbing my eyes I was expecting some missed calls or texts from Luke where he would be begging me to forgive him but there's nothing. Laying in the bed I started scrolling through pictures from the tour. The first one that came up was me and Chloe squealing on the bus. Then it was me with Bo and Tate playing a game. Chloe jumped in a few of those pictures too. There's even some of her and Carter on here when her phone died so she used mine. Yet those aren't the ones that made me start crying, it's the ones of Luke and I. There's the picture from my 21st birthday, some pictures of us singing on stage. I covered my hand with my mouth finding the picture of our first kiss. I had changed my lockscreen picture to me and Chloe since the old one just was too emotional. Thinking of Chloe her picture popped up where she's calling me but it's not a video chat which was strange for her. "Y/n, I have awesome news. Carter has an extra ticket to a concert tonight so I thought you'd want to come."

"Oh I don't know Chloe...I'm not really in the mood.. " I trailed off really just wanting to lay in the bed and not think about Luke.

"Come on girl please...for me. I promise you'll have fun." Running a hand down my face I want to say no but I knew she was serious when she would beg me to do something with her.

"Fine I'll go. Can you guys pick me up." She immediately replied yes hanging up the phone. Pulling on some jean shorts and a flannel shirt I grabbed my boots from the front door. The drive was silent where Chloe tugged me inside a completely dark area since it was almost midnight. She pushed me into a seat sitting directly in the middle of the pit before a spotlight came on and we saw Carter holding a microphone in his hands. "Carter what are you guys up to?"

I questioned trying to get up but Chloe holds my shoulders down so I couldn't. "Chloe and I can see you two are miserable without each other. So hear my man out because it's not what you think..." He holds the microphone for a second before the spotlight changes onto Luke sitting on a barstool.

He has a guitar in his hands with his eyes locked onto mine. He started playing the cords singing a song I didn't know so it must have been a new one. "Roll in the bar, me and my crew. Their little plan to get me over you. They're hookin' me up, yeah. Buyin' me drinks with a thousand girls. There's just one thing. I can't go anywhere, I can't do anything. No, I can't close my eyes without you in my dreams. You won't leave me alone, even though I know you're gone. I look around for someone new, but I see you. Jumpin' up there with the band. Takin' me by the hand. Hey boy, come dance with me.
Stuck like a melody in my head in the bed of my truck. By the light of the midnight moon. Baby, I see you.." He got to his feet handing Carter his guitar so he climbed down from the stage. Chloe stepped away from me as I avoided his gaze until he dropped down on his knees taking my hands in his. "Y/n, I know what you saw but just hear me out. Caroline kissed me that's what happened. Carter and Chloe can even see it happen on the security cameras that night. She grabbed my shirt when I was signing someone's hat. But I never kissed her back I swear...I never cheated on you baby and I never will..." He paused letting tears fall and I realize I was too when I sniffed right when he blurted out. "I love you, Y/n L/n."

Flinging myself into his arms he fell backwards onto the floor crashing my lips onto his deeply. He wrapped his arms around my waist kissing me back until I broke it finally saying something to him. "I love you too, Lukey Bryan...you're the first guy I've ever said that to before. So I love you too." Chloe and Carter both grinned throwing their fists in victory up into the air.
