forgiven. *

》Lauren《

Walking into the school building while Luke had his arm around my shoulder and mine around his torso while everyone - and i mean everyone - was staring at us with literally wide eyes was one of the most nervous and exciting moments of my school life. Nervous because a lot were staring and actually giving me some dirty looks or death glares without even trying to hide it but exciting because at the same a few others were giving me smiles and a Brad actually gave me thumbs up from where he was standing against his lockers with his phone in his hand which caused me to roll my eyes playfully while smiling at him.
It's not that Luke and i were dating but at least we were getting there - i hope.
I spent this last week at the hospital mostly but at the school of course as well. At school to take my notes and try to understand as much as i could just like anyone else and then to go to Ashton and take Luke's notes so he can catch up later.
My thoughts were interrupted as soon as i heard a familiar squeal that only belong to my sweet little muffin-

"Hello, Camila." Luke spoke, smiling down at her and i swear i could see her neck veins popping out a little and her face turning red as she tried to hold in another squeal.

"Hi." She giggled, grinning and i couldn't help but grin while watching her.

"Well, i'll leave you two alone now and go catch up with the guys." Luke said before pecking my forehead which made my cheeks heat up - especilly since a few were still staring.

Watching Luke walk away, i was smiling until Camila jumped in front of me, her eyes wide in happiness and excitement. "You have got a lot to tell me, Jauregui!" Oh boy.

"What's up, man." Michael said while hand shake-hugging me. I nodded, my bottom lip's cut still actually hurting.

"Dude, this sucks." Calum shook his head and pretended to shiver while looking closely at the not so healing yet purple bruise under my eye.

"I know, i know. Where's Ashton, though?" I furrowed my eyebrows slightly. Ashton was never absent.

"Somewhere with that new girl who just moved in." Calum said and i nodded my head slowly, chuckling softly. New girls, just his type.

Glancing around, i noticed Lauren and Camila were still standing where i left them near their lockers. Watching the way Lauren's lips moved while she was speaking and the way the sides pulled up in a smile - even from distant - was enough to make me smile. She was beautiful. Flawless. Intoxicating.

"Fucking hell, Lucas." i haven't realized i was still looking until instead of the beautiful girl i'm in love with was standing my best friend, Ashton.

Jumping back slightly from the sudden figure change, i let out a sigh. "What the fuck?"

Ashton turned around to glance at Lauren who was now grabbing her books from her locker before he turned back to look at me, a grin making it way to his face. "You both are so fucking whipped, i swear."

Even though, i would have normally rolled my eyes at him or made some comeback, i couldn't help the small smile that made it way to my own face as i stayed silent.

》Lauren《

After spending literally half of our History class trying to get Camila to understand that Luke and i are not dating, she almost got it until i was stupid enough to tell her about the whole drunken i love you text which caused Camila's eyes to go wide before she literally screamed and got the both of us kicked out of the class.

So now i was scrolling through my phone while waiting for Camila to come back with our food since it was her turn today. While opening my texting app, i saw the name Lucas which caused a small grin to make it way to my face.

Clicking on it, my smile dropped a little since the last texts we had were the one i sent after hearing the news on the radio. However, that smile made it way to my face once again as i start reading our old conversations again.

-''you know my break up treat ;)''

''is this your way of asking me out through texting, hemmings? how classy''

''is this your way of saying yes, jauregui? how cute ;)''

-''she may or may not have called you something and i may or may not defended you and called her something so she may or may not did bring the past to when i was you know a nerd when we were fourteen''

''you know luke, i may or may not be thankful to actually have you back in my life''

-''and why did brad have a black eye as well?''

''i have no idea''

''i can imagine the grin on your face right now''

''oh please i'm a complete angel''

''whatever, oh and luke?''

''yeah?''

''thank you''

Hearing the chair beside me being pulled, i locked my phone quickly before turning my head and smiled when i saw Luke sitting down.

''What were you doing?'' He grinned, mentioning to my phone.

I shrugged, grinning softly as i unlocked it once again and passed it towards Luke. Watching as he took it and his eyes scanned over our texts, i saw a small smile making it way to his lips as he shook his head, chuckling softly.

''You were so mean.'' He spoke and playfully pouted.

''Yeah that's because you weren't forgiven back then.'' I spoke, crossing my arms over my chest.

I watched as a small smirk made it way to his face as he slowly leaned closer, causing my eyes to widen slightly and my breath to hitch. Stay cool, Lauren. Stay cool. i chanted in my head.

''Is this your way of saying that i am forgiven now, Jauregui? how cute.'' He grinned and i couldn't help but let out a soft giggle while grinning even wider.

''Yes, yes it is my way of saying you're forgiven, Hemmings.'' I said, biting my lip once i noticed his eyes dropping down to glance at them. Fluttering my eyes closed once i felt his nose brushing against mine before his soft lips pressed against mine slowly.

Titling my head to the side slowly to follow his actions, our lips started moving against each other softly while his arm wrapped around my waist, causing my chair to move closer to his. Wrapping my arm around his neck, i felt my heart flutter once he tugged on my bottom lip gently. Feeling as if a jolt of electricity just ran over my spine and body.

Before i could part my lips, a palm was over my forehead, pulling me away from Luke's soft lips which caused me to literally whine at the loss of contact. Opening my eyes, my cheeks heat up bright red once i saw Camila and Ashton both standing above us with a smirk over their faces.

''Well, well, well.'' Ashton begun, wrapping his arm around Camila's shoulder the smirk still not leaving his nor Camila's face as she crossed her arms over her chest.

''I'm forgiven.'' Luke blurted out suddenly, grinning widely which caused me to shake my head fondly while looking down. God, I'm in love with a dork.
