The Teenage Reality l.h

39. Meet and Greet

Luke POV

Today's the day, it's now or never. The band walked in to the meet greet room everyone was engaged in their own conversations.

I kept rubbing my sweaty palms on my skinny jeans, I was extremely nervous to see Skyla for the first time since we broke up. I mean, who wouldn't be nervous?

The backstage passes is limited to only 5 meet and greets. Skyla and Jaylen's session will be the last one. Two girls walked in the meet and greet room with their palms over their mouths, Ashton embraced them into a hug followed with the rest of the band.

I apologized to them for my sweaty palms, we got a photo with the girls and we spoke to them for a little bit as per usual.

"Hope you guys enjoy the show tonight" I gave them both a hug before waving goodbye at them. Just three more to go before I officially get to see Skyla.

The fourth group followed in with two girls smiling brightly at us, I retured the same smile and gave them a hug. We started off the conversation as usual, with the question "Will you be coming to the concert tonight?" The two girls nodded enthusiastically.

Michael was currently talking to one of the girls, Ashton and Calum was talking to the other girl.

I tried joining in their conversation but failing terribly as Michael kept pushing away.

"It's was cool meeting you guys" Ashton said giving a hug to both of the girls. "You too" One of the girls replied.

"Also Luke, goodluck on meeting Skyla after this" One of the girls gave me a smile, shit.

I'm meeting her after this, shit.

Michael gave me a pat on the shoulder when he realized my sense of nervousness. "Chill out mate" Michael whispered.

I bit my lip looking over to the door, it still hasn't opened. What if she decided that it's was a crazy idea to meet me in the first place and runs away? All the negative thoughts were piling in my mind like my laundry that I never clean.

The door finally opened and Jaylen walked in first giving me a smile before walking over to Ashton and gave him a hug with Skyla following close to her.

Shit, did something happened ever since we broke up? Is it just me or does Skyla look a lot hotter since the last time I saw her.

"Jaylen! Skyla!" Calum exclaimed giving both of them a hug at the same time. "Hi Cal" her soft soothing voice chuckled. It was my turn next, Jaylen gave me a hug and pat on the back, whispering "Don't be nervous" before letting go of me.

I was finally faced to faced to Skyla, she gave me a small smile before I pulled her in for a hug. The hug didn't last too long, but long enough for me to know what she smelt like, kiwi, watermelons, musk and pink cyclamen.

Don't ask how I knew exactly what she smelt like. I smelt her perfume when we were dating, no it's not weird.

She moved on to Michael giving him a hug and Michael greeting her with a small "hey". I didn't take my eyes off of her at all, I wanted to cherish this moment forever.

Her hair wasn't wavy like usual, it was curled beautifully and her hair wasn't the usual golden blonde hair anymore, instead it was a darker shade almost to brown. She still looked beautiful, possibly more.

Jaylen was having a conversation with Michael and Calum. Skyla however was talking to Ashton but it seemed like they were having a private conversation in the corner. Again, I didn't take my eyes off of her not even when she turned to look at me for about 2 seconds.

"Luke, go talk to her" Jaylen nudged when Ashton finished talking to her and nodding at me to talked to her. I took a deep breath and went to the corner to talk to Skyla who was on her phone. "Hi" I greeted her, she looked up at me and mumbled a sorry before locking her iPhone.

"Um hi" She said hastily. "How are you?" I asked her trying to keep up the conversation. "Um good, you?" She questioned back. "Better" I smiled.

"Good" She nodded. "I'm sorry for freaking you out on the phone the other day, I didn't mean to say that" I apologized, she just nodded shyly in response.

"You look beautiful" I complimented at her, of course she looked beautiful, I don't remember her looking otherwise before and I don't think I'll ever will.

Skyla looked around her as if she didn't believe that I said that she was beautiful. "Me?" She questioned. "Yeah" I nodded.

"Oh um thank you um" She thanked awkwardly and scratched the back of her neck awkwardly.

"I um, I think I should um go" She pointed towards Jaylen who was about to leave the room. "Yeah sure" I let her past as she left the room.

"Shit bro" Michael pushed ny shoulders back lightly. "I know" I groaned.

"Did something happened to her? 'Cause she looked fucking gorgeous" Michael swore earning a glare from Ashton and I.

"Don't swear you asshole" Ashton told him off ironically swearing as well. "I don't fucking care" Michael mocked.

"I'm nervous for tonight" I told the guys.

"Don't be Luke, we did enough practice so I'm sure your plan is going to go swell" Ashton grinned. "Swell? What the hell Ashton?" Michael laughed along with Calum and I.

"Fuck you guys I'm going to swell to the bathroom" Ashton gave us the finger before leaving to the restroom. "Bathroom?" Calum laughed. "Shut up assholes" Ashton said before slamming the door shut.

Ah, and people question if we're even a legit band well guess what? There's your answer.
