Anna and her mum had sat and talked for ages and Anna had still to say to her mum about her idea. She didn't have any friends here anyway, so she wouldn't feel upset at leaving.

"Mum, this has been playing on my mind. Can I ask you a question?" Her mum nodded, but with hesitation.

"Okay well, since you told me about Aunt Karen, I've been thinking that maybe it would be best for us to get a fresh start. So how about instead of going to Sydney for a few weeks, we... Move there? It'll be nice to get our heads cleared from Dad and stuff, you know?" She looked at her in thought as Anna was hoping she'd say yes.

"That's not a bad idea you know. I might consider it. I'll get back to you." She genuinely looked like she was going to think about it and that was the good thing. Aside from seeing her aunt, she was going to see Luke.

"Well, I'm going to bed. Love you." She reached over and gave her mum a kiss and made her way to her room. She'd left her phone on her bed and there were a few texts from Mirte and Luke mostly asking her if she was okay.

Needless to say, none of them got much sleep. Luke was feeling bad because he caught the wrong end of the stick and offended Anna, however he was slightly annoyed that Anna was rude. Anna was annoyed for over-reacting in the heat of the moment and not talking to Luke about her worries, so she did the only thing she thought to do. She called him on FaceTime.

This was the first time they'd ever spoken on FaceTime and although they'd fallen out earlier, Anna wanted to apologise.

It rang twice before it connected. Luke had his bed side light turned on and was sitting shirtless with the blanket up around him. His fair was flat and he didn't have in his lip ring. Anna looked at him and felt tears brimming in her eyes.

"Are you okay?" His voice was hoarse and deep, making Anna confused as to whether she'd woken him up or he was crying.

She'd practiced what she was going to say and once she'd seen him, she burst into tears.

"I'm sorry, Luke. I didn't mean to upset you but I've just been stressed and stuff and I really am sorry." She was wiping away her tears when she looked to see Luke crying.

"Oh my God are you okay?" Luke nodded, but didn't say anything.

"Why are you crying?" she heard him sniff on the other end of the line.

"I just feel really awful! I'm tired too but I feel really bad for saying what I did!" He was whisper-shouting which made it even more sad.

"Luke, please don't cry. I was just being moody and I didn't mean to take it out on you, I'm honestly so sorry." Luke had stopped crying and he nodded.

"Its okay, I get that you're obviously going to be moody but I just feel so bad, I'm such an awful friend."

Anna's heart fluttered at him calling her a friend. She wished he was calling her 'baby', but we'll not get into that.

"Its okay, Luke. I'm sorry as well."

Luke nodded and yawned. "Its like 3am so I'm gonna go to sleep, okay?" Anna nodded back at him before giving a slight wave and mumbling a 'bye'.

15 minutes later she found herself sleeping and dreaming of the boy with the lip ring that found her on twitter.
