Chapter 11

3 weeks ago, Luke told me about the fine specimen named Michael Clifford. You know, the bad person who basically broke his heart? Well he came into the store a few more times and just kept flirting but it was really starting not get to me and I don't know whether I was finding it attractive or annoying. I needed to confront him because I needed to know the truth from his side also. God I hope I don't freak out or anything. After all, Luke is my greatest friend.

Work was such a big burden at the minute as I have a lot on my plate. Sydney was so close as I only needed to earn another £3000 before I could commit to my travels and go move to Sydney. But now new things are holding me back. Things like Luke, Ava & Calum. I also didn't want to leave my sister Lola because we had become so close lately and I could tell her anything. But I'm still not as happy as I want to be and I need to get out of here. It's not as if I'm leaving them for good right?

I had a late shift at Joe's today and I seriously couldn't be bothered. But today was the day I confronted Michael and sorted out this mess.

Luke was standing at the counter, his head in his hands and his eyes closed. The familiar bell rang above my head as I walked into the shop. Luke's eyes fluttered open for me to see heavy, red eyes and the bright shade of blue which they normally are, was a dark, cloudy blue. What is up with him?

"Hey" he said, his voice thick with sleep. "Are your okay Luke? You seem tired." "I'm fine Lila, I just feel shitty lately. You don't need to worry though, I'm just fed up of this life I'm living now. It's shit." He let out a weak smile before embracing me. "Well do you want to do something later? You know.. Go watch a movie or something. I really have nothing to do." I asked.
"Sure, what time to you leave this dump." "6:30pm, I'm on late shift."
"Is 7:30 okay?"
"Sure" I smiled before going to my locker and preparing myself for a long day.

It was the same story every Wednesday. Luke left at 5:30pm and at exactly 6:00pm Michael Clifford came strolling in.
He came to the counter with food this time and not condoms. Surprised.

"Hey Lila" he dragged out in a flirtatious manner.
"Hello Michael." I said bitterly, remembering his past events with Luke ex-girlfriend.
"Woah, sorry." He snickered rolling his lush eyes.
"£3.45 please." I demanded holding out my hand.
"Here." He said as he was about to walk out the door.
"Wait Michael, do you need a ride home? I need to ask you something."
"Sure, are you gonna tell me you fancy me or something Lila? Because I already know that." He smirked, leaning over the counter. His face inches from mine.
The strong scent of his manly cologne filled my lungs as I looked into his dark eyes. I let out a awkward cough as he said "I can tell how I make you feel." Inching closer to me. His breath was hot on my face, I just wanted to grab him, and kiss him.
"Michael I need to run this shop. Stop." I said pushing him backwards. I really wanted him, but I knew I had to stay away for Luke as this dick in front of me broke his heart.
"I'll be outside." He smirked as I watched him walk out to the parking bay and leaned against my car.
