That Boy Next Door [l.r.h.] *UNDER MAJOR EDITING*

|chapter 28|

"Whats a girl like you standing here alone?" A husky, irritating voice said into my ear.

I turned around and found the voice to be coming from a tall, buff looking guy about maybe, 25..? His hair was dark brown and gelled in all different places, cold, dark brown eyes narrowed down at me, and a weird smirk plastered on his face.

"Get away." I huffed.

"And why would I do that?" He hissed. This guy, is getting on my nerves.

"I have a boyfriend." I spat. I was about to turn around and walk away, until his hand grabbed my wrist and turned me around.

"And I have a history test tomorrow." He stated.

What. The. Heck.........

"What the fuck?" I raised my eyebrows.

"I thought we were naming things we could cheat on." Another gross smirk made its way on his face. Ugh.

"Seriously? That is a horrid pickup line." I hissed through my gritted teeth.

I jolted away from his grip on my hand and walked away. I swiveled through all the drunken, sweaty bodies, to find Luke sitting on a couch with a blonde practically shoving her boobs in his face.

I started to walk towards him, until the thing I never, ever would want to happen, happened.

Their lips connected and moved in sync. Luke kissed her. She kissed him. They kissed. Luke cheated on me. Luke.

I felt tears dwelling in my eyes, about to fall. Nope, I'm not going to cry. Luke clearly isn't worth it. He doesn't care about me. Why should I care about him?

I wanted to run away,but I couldn't. I felt as if my feet were plastered to the ground. I can't run away. Why? I don't know.

I felt pure hatrid towards Luke. Hate is all I can feel. Well, hate is a strong word. I dislike Luke with a passion. There we go. Yes, I dislike like a lot. I can never hate someone because hate is a very harsh word that I prefer to not use, but a strong disliking is acceptable and a perfect term for my position as of this moment.

I gathered all I could and ran away. Where to? Who knows. I ran our the door but only to fall back because of a strong figure walking inside the house.

My hazel eyes met the too-farmiliar hazel ones. Ashton.

"I'm so sorry Lila! Are you okay?" Ashton helped me up.

Apparently, tears have been streaming down my face but I didn't notice it. Ashton wiped the tears off my cheeks.

"Whats wrong?" Ashton asked, his voice full of sorrow.

"L-Luke." I choked out, my voice cracking.

"Lets leave."

"Do you want to tell me what he did, now?" Ashton asked me.

Ashton drove us to Nando's so that we could talk.

"I saw Luke kissing another girl. I don't care if he is drunk or not. Well, he couldn't be drunk because he literally just walked away from me like 1 minuet before I saw him kissing that girl. He was more than likely to know what he was doing." I rambled with my forehead in my hands, "what did I do wrong?" I finished with a soft cry.

"You did nothing. Luke is just stupid." Ashton comforted.

"Thanks, Ash." I lifted my head.

"Of course." He smiled.

Luke's P.O.V.

(Still at the party)

I walked away from Lila for one second, but only to be pulled to a couch by the one and only, Jamie. Jamie is your average school slut. She disgusts me.

She sat down on the couch and made me sit next to her.

"Hi Lukey." She grossly cooed.

"What do you want, Jamie?" I spat.

"You." She giggled. I could smell the alcohol on her breath. Ew.

"You're disgusting." I hissed.

"Just shut up and kiss me, Luke."
Before I knew it, her gross, red, caked lips were planted on mine. Quickly, I pushed her away.

I swear, I saw a glimpse of a crying Lila, running away. Its a terrible sight, too. I hate seeing her cry.

"Whats wrong?" Jamie giggled.

"You're disgusting. And I have someone I love more than anything." I jumped off the couch and ran out the front door.

I could hear Jamie yell something along the lines of, "you'll regret this." Or something like that.

I ran to my car and drove home, wiping hand-sanitizer on my lips and rubbing them with a Cleanex.

Lila's P.O.V.

After eating at Nando's and talking to Ashton, he drove me home. Tonight has been a long, tiring night. All I wanna do now is sleep.

I fell asleep to the thought of Luke.

How could he do that?
