Luke
"Lucas! Where have you been? You missed the fireworks display!" Calum said as soon as he saw me walking back our table.
"I went to the garden and I saw the fireworks display. It's better to watch it in the garden." I told him with a smirk.
"And you didn't invited us? Selfish!" Michael rolled his eyes and I flashed him an evil grin.
"Oh, you idiot!" Ashton said and swatted my shoulder.
"Anyway," I started and cleared my throat. "Any plans tomorrow?" I asked.
"Haven't planned anything yet, why?" Michael said and took a large bite from the pizza he was holding.
"Great, I could go to Alyssa's tomorrow." I said. My words made Calum raise his brow and Ashton looked at me in confusion.
"You? Going to Alyssa's? Tomorrow? Oh what a surprise!" Ash exclaimed.
I chuckled. "What's wrong? Can't I go to my girlfriend's house tomorrow?"
"It's just," Calum said, struggling for words. "Strange."
"Oh," I said in a low tone.
I wouldn't blame Calum for saying that though. It's strange, it really is. What happened between Danielle and I while I'm having a relationship with Alyssa is really questionable and now I'm telling them that I'm going to visit Alyssa tomorrow. Telling them that Alyssa is my girlfriend and like I have loved her like I did to Danielle.
But it's the right thing to do though. Danielle is now part of my past but she will always be a part of me and hopefully, she will still be part of my future.

"Luke," a familiar voice called me. I didn't turned around to see who it was but instead I kept on walking and this time faster.
"Luke," she repeated but I still didn't turned. I'm afraid to see her again. I'm afraid that for sure, she would leave me again.
"Luke, wait!" She shouted and I stopped on my tracks. "Let me tell you something, please." She said in a low tone, barely audible.
I faced her and I was welcomed by her ocean blue eyes. Her blonde hair perfectly tied in a ponytail. She's perfect as she always was.
"Luke," she took a step forward.
"Danielle," I whispered.
"I've missed you." Her eyes suddenly shredded tears.
"I do too."
"I just came around to see you, Luke. To see how you've been. And look at you now," she pointed at me. "You've grown. You've changed." She said and wiped the tears on her cheek.
"You've changed, too." I showed her a sad smile.
Silence filled the air and I examined my feet on the ground. I should move and hug her tight and kiss her right now but I couldn't move.
"I love you," she said, breaking the silence.
"I love you, too." I replied but as I look up, she was already gone.

My eyes snapped open, beads of sweat forming on my forehead.
Danielle. I dreamed about her. I dreamed about her coming back. And I dreamed about her leaving.
What does that dream say? What does it mean? Does it mean that she would come back and leave me again?
It's impossible for her to come back, though. They've already settled down in the Philippines and she doesn't want to talk to anyone of us right now.
