Come Find Me || Luke Hemmings

Chapter 20: Clubbing

*MADISON'S POV*

I'm making my way through the crowded club to the table, where probably everyone else already is. I finally spot familiar figure with blonde long hair. I go a little bit faster and when I'm here I hug the person from behind around her shoulders. "Happy birthday" I say loud enough, so she can hear me over the loud music in the club. "Thanks" she turns to me and smile. "But you're late" she frowns her eyebrows. "I know, I'm sorry. My dad was just making sure I'll be fine" I say and she nods to let me know that she understands. "Let's go dance" she suddenly stands up from the chair, grab my hand and drags me to the dancefloor. Fortunately, I was able to let my clutch on the table. Or maybe I just throw it there and someone just caught it. Well, I hope that this person is supposed to be here with us. We're jumping into the rhythm of the song on the dancefloor, at least that's what we're thinking. My best friend Sophia is celebrating tonight her 18th birthday. Suddenly I feel someone's hands on my hips. I move my head a little to find out who it is, and when I see the strange guy, I immediately try to push his hands away from me, but he always put them back. I turn around to face him, ready to yell at him, but when I turn around, he probably thinks I'm interested into him. He wraps his arm around my waist, pulls me closer to him and his other hand makes its way all over my body. I put my hands on his chest and tries to push him away from me. Suddenly someone else's hands are around us, pushing the guy away. "Fuck off man, she's off the market" the familiar voice says. I'm still in shock, but the guy lifting his hands up in defending gesture and leaving. "Are you okay?" the voice asks. Then I realize he's talking to me. I slightly nod. "Let's go" the voice says again and I feel the strong arm wrapping around my shoulders and leading me somewhere.

*LUKE'S POV*

I push her down to sit on the couch in the club. We rented a VIP saloon for Sophia's birthday. When I saw him touching her, I wanted to beat the shit out of him. I had to calm myself down before I went there. Sophia ran to me and told me to do something, like I wasn't able to see what's going on. I don't actually get it why she cares so much if we are or we're not together. I got it, they're best friends, but our relationship is none of her business. Yeah, maybe the fact that she closed us in one room helped, but why does this matter to her that much? I admit that I thought what Molly told me was true, although she just saw something and just made her own explanation of what she saw. Anyway, I don't blame Madison for being mad at me, because, let's be honest, I deserved it. I still do. I didn't listen to her when she wanted to explain it. I screwed it up, I know. And now, I have to beg and work for another chance. I realized that I made a mistake. I didn't trust her. I should know she wouldn't do that to me. I was stupid. But it's too late to regret my mistakes. I have to show her that she can trust me. I have to earn her trust again. "Here" I hold her the glass of water and somehow I manage to sit between her and Dylan on the couch.

*MADISON'S POV*

"Luke" I whine while pulling his hand, trying to pull him up from the couch. "Come dance with me" I whine again and he just shakes his head. "Why do you have to be so mean?" I cry out and pout when I sit on the couch next to him. "I'm not mean, I just don't dance" he says with lips next to my ear, so I can hear him over the loud music in the club while he slids his arm around my shoulders. "Why not?" I ask. "Because I don't" he answers. I pout again. "At least you could do this just once, because this is my favourite song" I jump up from the couch when my lips spread into the huge smile, trying to pull him up from the couch again. "No" he says. "Fine, if you don't want to, I'm sure someone else will" I say with a smile on my face and turn around to find my victim. The second when I want to go to that guy, Sophia takes my hand and pulls me to the dancefloor. We're jumping and throwing our arms around us, trying to look as much sexy as we can. When I spot a small group of pretty hot guys and make few steps towards them, I'm stopped by someone's arm around my waist. "Fine, I'll dance with you" I hear words in my ear. "But I don't wanna dance with you anymore" I smile at the blue eyed boy and check on the group of guys with the corner of my eye and bite on my bottom lip. "Okay, let's go. You're drunk" he says and tries to pull me away. "What? Who are you to telling me what to do? Stop acting like my damn father and let me live my life" I yell at him.

*LUKE'S POV*

"Any problem here, beautiful?" some idiot from that group of guys, whose she was checking at comes to us. "No, we're cool. Thanks" I mutter. "Actually, we're not. He's bothering me" she says and I gasp for air. "Well mate, I'm sorry. I have to ask you to leave that lady alone" he winks at her. "You leave her alone. I'm her boyfriend" I mutter the lie out of me and he lifts his hands in defending gesture. "What? No you're not. If you forgot, let me remind you, that you dumped for the most stupid fucking reason" she shouts at me. The boy scans me from my head to my toes. "Well, if that's so, fuck off man" he says and cross his arms on his chest. I look at her with a little hope in me. I hope that she might say this was all just a joke or something. But she's just standing there, doing nothing. She probably doesn't even realize that, but what she said actually did hurt me.

*MADISON'S POV*

Even through my blurry vision I can see that look on his face. I shouldn't say that. He's trying his best to get me back and I just push him away in the first opportunity. Don't get me wrong, I like him, I really like him, but, it's just. Sometime he's acting that way like he's just the only one who is best for me. I know he doesn't mean it in a bad way, but it's just so annoying and I just can't stand this. "Come and join us beautiful" the unknown guy tells me and I feel he grabs my wrist in his hand. "Not thanks" I snap at him and try to pull out my hand from the grip. "Let me go" I say impatiently. "Not so fast baby. We're gonna have some fun first" he says and laughs with his whole group of friends. Thank God for the heels. I turn my back to him and kick my foot to the back, hitting his crotch. "Fuck, you little slut. You're gonna regret this" he strain through his teeth in pain. I pull out my hand from his grip as fast as I can and go quickly to the direction where I saw Luke heading. I finally get into the VIP saloon, but he's not there anymore. "Where's Luke?" I ask Dylan. "He left just a while ago" he answers my question and turn his attention back to the birthday girl. Damn. I grab my clutch and unsteadily walk towards the exit, hoping those guys already found another victim. When I finally get out of the club, I look around. He's sitting on the street curb. I continue walking to him unsteadily. "I'm sorry" I mumble and he looks up at me and shrugs. "Don't. I mean it. I shouldn't say that" I try to apologize to him. When he moves a little to the side, I take this sign as sitting down next to him. When I sit down, I put my shoes off and rest my head on his shoulder. "I'm really sorry" I say again. "Okay, fine. I get it. You're sorry. I forgive you" he says and wraps his arm around my waist to support my body weight from not falling back to the ground. "Really?" I ask and he nods. Then the taxi arrives and he stands up, helping me stand up too. "If you wanna go home, I can take you. I mean, I can share a taxi with you" he says and smiles. "No, I can't go home like this. My dad would kill me" I say and look around, ready to sit down back on the street curb. "Fine, you can stay at mine" he says and hold his hand to me, expecting me to go with him. And I do, because I don't have a place to go anyway. I can't go home, because my dad would kill me or at least I would be grounded or something. Sophia is still in the club and I don't have any other friend who I could go to.

AN: Here's the new part. I'm sorry I wasn't able to post it on Friday.
