Escape (UNDERGOING EDITING)

Cracked

I brushed my right eye with mascara finishing off my routine. I didn't have to choose what I needed to wear today though because I had set out the dress I was to wear last night. I stepped into the silky material but I had trouble zipping the back. I sighed and stalked out of my room in search of someone to zip up my dress.

I held it up by the front and walked out of my bedroom. I hadn't put my shoes on yet so this definitely made searching easier. I walked towards the room Caitlyn and Ashton were currently staying in but I heard crying as I raised my hand to the knob.

Pregnancy hormones are great. We got Ashton and Caitlyn's house completely ready yesterday afternoon. They were set to move in. Now, was just the wait.
Not wanting to interrupt, I backed away slowly, and made my way back up the hall towards Calum's room. I went for the knob once again but before my hand could reach it, the door was swung open.

My eyes widened at the sudden movement as I met the person's eyes. Blue. "Geez Luke. You scared the shit out of me."I said. He smiled weakly and shrugged. "Sorry. I was actually just coming to get you."He said. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion as he came out into the hallway and shut the door behind him.

"For what?"I asked adjusting my hands so my dress wouldn't fall. "Calum. He wont come out of his closet."He said making me sigh. "Okay well I'll see if I can get him out. But first can you do me a favor?"I asked. He raised his eyebrows at me suggestively and I rolled my eyes. "This is not the time. Just need you to zip my dress up."I said as he chuckled.

"Right, sorry. Turn."He ordered. I did as I was told and pulled my loosely curled hair aside with one hand using the other to hold up the dress. I felt his cold hands on the lower part of my back where the zipped began. His fingers ran over the exposed skin lightly while my breathing picked up. He sighed and did the job after receiving no further reaction from me.

"Thanks."I said letting my hair go. I turned around to face him but found him much closer than where I left him. "You look beautiful. As always."He said pulling me closer to him. I swallowed hard and nodded trying to hide the blush that was crawling up my cheeks. "Thank you. Caitlyn gave it to me for my birthday a while back."I said shrugging trying to stay casual.

I remembered briefly celebrating the day of my birth. At the time, I was still in my funk, and thinking I could get over Luke. My friends and family tried very hard to make that day special for me but they all knew that the only thing I wanted was something I didn't need at the time. More so who I thought, I didn't need.

"Oh."He said lowering his head. I frowned and took his face in mine. "Hey. I'm the one that told you to stay away. You're here now when I really need you most. That's what matters."I said. He nodded slightly causing me to sigh. I stood on my tippy toes and kissed his plump lips. Instantly he kissed me back strongly making me smile.

I pulled away and his eyes were shut. "Now, I'm gonna go take care of Calum. Can you grab my heels for me in my room that I have by my bed please? Then make sure everyone is ready to leave within the next twenty minutes. We have to be there an hour early they said. Okay?"I asked. Luke smiled slightly and kissed me quickly. "Okay."He said smirking.

I rolled my eyes and pushed him out the door playfully. I inhaled and exhaled deeply preparing myself for Calum's worst. I opened the door and walked into his boisterous bedroom filled with band posters, game counsels, rotting food, and guitars.

I knocked on the door to the automatic doorway to his closet before it slid open on its own. "Calum, where are you?"I said into the spacious room. I walked around the divider that separated his shirts and pants. But he was no where to be found. I huffed and walked out of the room getting slightly frustrated because we were running out.
