Come Find Me || Luke Hemmings

Chapter 6: Hesitation

*LUKE'S POV*

Another week passed and we're in the half of our trip to LA. Well, it's not actually a trip. We're working on our next album. And it seems my only inspiration is she. I can't get her out of my head and I keep imagining how it would be if we would be together. I really want to be with her and I really like her, but she seems to be like weather. Unpredictable and ever changing. She's changing her mind like all the time. One day she says she would be with me, then it's like she wanna be just friends and then she tells me it's gonna be better if we won't be in touch. That she doesn't want to talk with me like never again. It's too complicated. Yes, of course I'm fighting for her, but I'm starting to be tired and sick of this. Maybe if we could meet face to face and talk it would be better. This texting is just not enough. Two more weeks. I have two more weeks to persuade her to meet me once when I get back.

*MADISON'S POV*

Dammit. I really don't know what to do. Sophia is fighting with me over the fact that I met her favourite member of her favourite band few weeks ago in a stupid night club and I didn't take him to her although I know that she's crazy in love with him. And I'm sick of trying to explaining to her that I was totally annoyed that night and I wasn't even thinking about who he really is. Then she always pull out that article someone wrote. It's like never-ending story. This is what I was always afraid of. Some boy standing between me and my friend. I never wanted to fight with her over some boy. Some boy doesn't worth for fighting with my best friend who is like a sister to me. But that's what I was thinking before. He's so nice to me and it seems like he's doing everything what he can to stay in touch with me even when I'm rude and annoying and I always change my mind about things. I'm actually really surprised he's so patient with me. Honestly if I were him, I would give up as soon as I could. But he didn't. He keeps fighting for me even when I tell him that I don't wanna talk to him anymore.

From Luke: Hi Maddie. I was thinking, that we could finally arrange our meeting, so we can meet when I finally get back home.

I sigh. Here we go again. I know that when he will get beck it's gonna be more than one month since we know each other, but I'm still not sure about if I really wanna meet him. Maybe I'm too scared to be with him alone. He said he wants it to be just the two of us, but I don't feel like to be somewhere just with him. I know that if we would be out around other people, there are gonna be just more rumors, but I just don't know. I wish I could have someone else to talk about it with. Yeah, I talked about it with Nathan, but I wish I could have someone else's opinion as well.

To Luke: I don't know. I'm sorry, it's just all too complicated. I'm still not sure about this. And please, stop calling me Maddie, I hate it. Stick to the Madison or other option, which is Mads. Thanks.

*LUKE'S POV*

I run my hand through my hair. This is what I'm talking about. I know this is all about her friend. She tries to back out from this just because of her. I don't like this blonde screaming person already. She's making everything complicated for us.

To Madison: OK, I won't call you this then. Let me just tell you that I know you're avoiding to meet me just because of your friend. I mean, when she really is your best friend she will be fine about it. I'm not saying that she won't be mad at first, because she probably will, but she should understand that we have a thing for each other. And if she won't get over it, she probably isn't your best friend for real.

I don't really care about her friend. I want her. I'll do everything to get her.

From Madison: You know, my brother said the same thing. You're probably right. Like both of you. She's my best friend, like my sister and she should understand that. But I think I'm just too scared of losing her. Maybe I won't, but there's still a chance I will.

I sigh. Who's not reading the texts now? I smile for myself. "What are you smiling at?" my friend Michael just walks in. "Nothing" I say and shake my head. "Hey man, I'm serious. Since we're here you keep holding your phone in your hand" he says and I shrug. "So what?" I ask him acting like nothing's going on. Then he comes to me and start to fight with me over my phone. I don't want to let my phone out of my hand. "Give it to me Lucas" he strains through his teeth. "No" I half shout at him. "What are you doing?" we're interrupted by girl's voice. We both look to the direction where it came from and see Michael's girlfriend Eleanor standing there. I stop paying attention and Michael use this moment to take my phone from my hand and he runs away with it and lock himself in the bathroom. "Thanks" I mutter to the purple haired girl. "What was that about?" she asks confusedly. "Nothing. It's just, thanks to you he will go through my personal stuff I don't want him to know about" I shrug. "I'm sorry" she says and put that innocent look on her face. "Don't worry about that. Your boyfriend is an asshole anyway" I say and laugh. She looks at me and laugh as well.

AN: Will Madison finally agree to meet Luke when he will get back from LA?
