Chapter Seventeen

Rose

I woke up feeling someone's arms wrapped around me, their snores filling my ears. I smiled, trying to wiggle out of Luke's grasp but all he did was tighten his grip.

I turned so I was facing him. His mouth was slightly open, a little bit of drool escaping as well. His once quiffed up hair fell onto his forehead.

"Lucas."

"Luke."

"Luke get your lazy ass up now!"

"Dammit Luke." A laugh escaped his lips and I gave a triumphant smile. He opened his eyes which trailed to my lips.

"Morning Rosie." Shit, his morning voice is sexy. I shook the thoughts out of my head and laid my head on Luke's chest. He responded by simply wrapping his arms around me tighter, if that's possible.

"As much as I want to keep laying here I'm hungry." He groaned then released me, following me into the kitchen afterwards. I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw my mum in the kitchen. She will kill me for having Luke stay the night, in my bed.

Before I could stop Luke he walked into the kitchen, plopping into one of the chairs at the table. I screamed at him mentally but he just smirked.

"Hey Luke." Mum smiled, putting a plate of pancakes in front of him.

"Rose, hurry up your breakfast will get cold." My jaw dropped and I shuffled into the room. I heard Luke laugh under his breath and I shoved his shoulder, taking a seat next to him.

"Why she being so... nice?" Luke whispered in my ear. I flickered my eyes towards mum who was smiling whilst flipping pancakes.

"I don't know."

"Hey, Rose. I'm going to have a friend over for dinner tonight, maybe Luke would want to go?" I rose my eyebrows then turned to Luke who had a mouth full of pancakes.

"That's why." Mum rose her eyebrows, waiting for my answer. I turned to Luke who was still devouring the pancakes.

"Sure, I bet he would love to, I know I would." I shoved my elbow into his side and he groaned, rubbing his side. Mum laughed at us then left the kitchen but not before winking at me.

I rolled my eyes, stabbing my fork into my pancakes. I felt Luke's arm snake around my waist and I smiled, leaning my head onto his shoulder.

"Do you want to go to the dinner thing tonight?" I asked, raising my head up and locking eyes with him. His eyes flickered to where my mum was before he smirked.

"Technically it's a date." He joked, kissing my forehead when he noticed the look I gave him.

I poked at the diamond earrings that were dangling off my ears. At first I didn't want to dress fancy but when I realized how special this was to my mum so I dressed fancy.

I looked at my reflection, spinning so that the white lace dress I was wearing flowed out slightly. Once again I slipped into my white all stars.

"My girlfriend looks good." Luke whispered into my ear, snaking his arms around my waist. I smiled at him when he rested his chin on top of my shoulder. He wore a tux and of course had his hair up in a quiff.

"So does my boyfriend." I locked him with a giggle at the end. As soon as that damn giggle left my mouth I covered my mouth with my hand. Luke laughed, poking my sides in the process.

"You giggled, Roselyn Faith giggled!" He teased, jabbing his finger into my sides repeatedly. I bit my lip so that I wouldn't laugh and wiggled out of his grasp, running out of my room and down the stairs where the smell of mum's homemade cooking invaded my nostrils.

I glanced around at the living room and kitchen, noticing how mum cleaned up so much. He must be someone important. Right as Luke made it downstairs the doorbell rang.

"Rose, sweetie, answer the door for me!" I heard her shout from inside the kitchen. Luke trailed beside me as I walked over to the door and pulled it open.

A gasp escaped my lips as my eyes met the pair of blue eyes I haven't seen since I was ten years old. Sadness, confusion, and anger bubbled through my body as I stared at him.

"Dad?"

Hey, sorry it's so short but on the other hand CLIFFHANGER! I've been waiting to do that for a while by the way.
