Finally (A Luke Brooks Fanfiction)

Chapter 8

****Luke's POV****

It was a pretty quiet walk back to Courtneigh's house. It wasn't awkward, but it was quiet.

When we arrive in her house, we discovered no one was home. I took off my shoes and made myself comfy in the living room, playing with the Lego with Matthew. Courtneigh walked in and I gave her a strange look.

"What's that up your nose?" I quizzed.

  "A tampon.." She said looking away.

  "Why is there a tampon up your nose..?" I asked slowly.

 "My nose wouldn't stop bleeding" She blushed and instantly looked extremely embarrassed. Ha-ha.

 There was a long silence, well apart from the crunching of Matthew trying to connect Lego pieces.

 "Courtneigh about what happened Yesterday..." I started before she cut me off.

 "I know, it won't be happening again" she smiled, sadly?

 "Well to be honest I wouldn't mind!" I winked. Ooops. Instantly regretting that I face palmed. She laughed a little bit before sitting down. She breathed what I'm assuming was a sigh of relief.

"So what'd you want to do" I asked, turning to face her, she was laying on the sofa watching Matthew.

"Well I can't go out because of him, and even if I could, I have a tampon up my nose." I laughed, I can't believe we hadn't become friends sooner.

 "Someone might think I had a bit of confusion in the toilet, so I don't think leaving the house is a great idea..." I sighed.

"How about we play GTA, I have San Andréa's, Vice city, and Liberty City" She smiled. I nodded and she got up, dusted off her old PS2 and set it up.

So we'd been playing her PS2 for about an hour now. I hadn't had a text from Jai telling us where to meet them, not that we could meet them anyway; Courtneigh's mum hadn't text her a time she was going to be home for so it looked like it was just going to be me and Courtneigh for a while longer. Matthew had fallen asleep so I took him up to his room.

By the time I'd gotten back down stairs Courtneigh was packing the console away. She looked round at me and smiled. I smiled back at her and stood in the doorway. I wouldn't say I was checking her out... Okay I was totally checking her out. And yes. She had removed the tampon from her nose.

****Courtneigh's POV****

I could feel Luke staring. I'm not going to lie, but I felt a bit uncomfortable. Like, the boy I totally fancied was staring at me.

 "Um, Luke could you put the games back on the shelf please" I asked, trying not to sound bossy. No reply.

 "Luke?" I repeated, I turned my head to face him with a confused expression

 "Oh, Huh? What. Oh yeah, games" He stuttered. OH MY GOD, WAS HE CHECKING ME OUT. Loll, no shut up Courtneigh you're just friends. Wait, are we even friends?

 "Luke, I hope this doesn't sound weird. But are we friends?" I asked Yep, that sounded weird.

 "That did sound weird. Yep..." I mentally rolled my eyes. I was so damn stupid!

 "I hope so. I really like you" Luke smiled, placing the games on the shelf.

 "Aww! You really like me!" I cooed, acting flattered. Actually. No I was flattered.

 I sat on the sofa and patted the seat next to me for Luke to take. He smiled and sat down, I switched on the TV and before I knew it Luke was asleep and I was drifting off.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 I was suddenly awoken by violent knocking at my door, I shook Luke awake, he looked at me and groaned before rubbing his eyes.

"What" He groaned, ruffling his hands through his oh so gorgeous hair. So I'm guessing he's not a morning person.

 "Someone's at the door" I whispered, the knocking was getting harsher and harsher.

 "So open it" Luke mumbled stretching his arms behind his head.

 "Come with me?" - Luke sighed as I tugged his arm towards the front door.

Okay, It's an old habit. I can't open the door without someone there. I take stranger danger to a whole new level.

 As I opened the door, there stood a man, in I'd say his late 30's early 40's.

 "Yes?" I asked, Luke was stood behind me, so close I could feel his breath on my neck, in any other situation I'd feel awkward, but knowing he was that close made me feel safe.

 "Is Carol there?" The man asked in a husky English accent. It seemed quite familiar, but I still couldn't manage to put my finger on why.

 "Um, No she's out. I could take a message for you?" I mumbled shyly.

 "Just tell her Martin called." He replied bluntly before walking off.

 Martin? I recognise that name.

 I shut the door and sighed.

 I turned to face Luke who looked extremely confused. He looked super sleepy, bless him.

 "Why did you need me to come to the door with you" Luke grumbled leaning his head against the wall with his eyes closed.

 "Long story..." I simply stated.

 "Luke, You look tired. Go up stairs, you know where my room is. You can take a nap in there" I pushed him towards the stairs, he chuckled and nodded

 "Thanks" He mumbled as he trudged up the stairs.

A/N: Omg. That was shit, I know. Idek what I was thinking...

The next chapter is going to just kind of be a filler chapter. So yeah. But I think It'll be an important chapter otherwise what happens after might not makes sense. U feel me? Kind of like this one. Idk. Thanks for reading and Voting anyway, You're the greatest <3
