chapter six:

michael got burnt today and im so sad that i decided to update. okay sorry if this is shit but i needed to do something to get my mind off of my worries :-)

LUKE'S POV

I woke up feeling a bit less shittier than i did when i fainted. i didn't open my eyes but i had a pat around and realized that i had my arms wrapped around someone soft. i tighten my arms around it and it let out a sigh of content maybe?

i let my eyes open and i saw angel fast asleep next to me.

wait, what the fuck?

i tried my best to detach myself from her but not wake her up. she looked a bit terrible, with bones still sticking out and bags under her eyes, and ever so slightly, i would hear her sniffle.

oh god is this what me being far from her caused?

even though i was mad at angel for sleeping with harry i still cared for her, and i still loved her.

i wrap my arms around her again and nuzzle my head on her neck. i watch as the bones that were once sticking out now coming back to normal, i look at her face and saw the bags under her eyes start to disappear.

we needed each other.

i hugged her and sighed, letting myself go and holding her in my arms like i have been craving to do for the past three days.

the first two days of me at calum and lian's was mostly just me locked in my room and thinking what the hell i did wrong. what made her want to sleep with harry? was i not good enough for her?

and on the third day i decided to go out, and calum and i had a kick around and i ended up fainting.

i hug her close to me and sigh, letting my worries go even for just a few minutes knowing that when angel woke up, we might end up in an argument.

yeah, maybe she'll tell you that she doesn't love you anymore and maybe even break up with you?

the menacing tone in my head was back and i try to ignore it, taking deep breaths and holding angel close to me as if she was my lifeline.

she is your lifeline, and you can't ignore me forever. what if angel decided that she doesn't wanna be with you anymore? what if she decided that harry was better? what then?

"Shut up." i said and ball my hands, tightening my hold.

oh, but you see luke, i am you. you can't get rid of me so easily, i'm in your head. i'm your demons luke.

"shut up!" i scream and let my hands cover my ears. completely unaware of the fact that i had woken angel up and she was looking worriedly at me.
