Ch.41 (Pt.2)

Sunday Night

I'm really starting to worry. Two reasons.

1) I have to sneak out and I never done that before.

2) Luke seemed serious about what needs to be discussed that has to happen tonight.

After dinner and goodnights I ran upstairs to start my plan. First things first, be the first one to finish dinner. Check. Change into some black leggings, black long sleeved shirt, black shoes, and my black beanie. Check. Take a selfie. Check. Stuff pillows under my covers to seem like there's a body. Check. Climb out the window and actually sneak out. Not checked.

I control my breathing and swing my legs over the edge of my window. I grab the now useful vine and climb out, holding on for dear life.

When I finally reach the ground, I kiss it.

'Thank you.' I mouth to the sky

I start my journey off to the park where Luke and I plan to meet up at.

I can't believe I'm doing this. By this I mean sneaking out. I feel like a bad girl, what a rush. I reach the park under five minutes and instantly spot Luke.

"Hey Luke." I greet him with a smile

"Hey." He mumbles back in a not-so-cheerful way

He's really worrying me. Sending my unease, he tries to lighten up the mood.

"What's with the outfit?" I look down at my all black attire and then look to his sandals, blue shorts, and a white t-shirt

"I had to dress for the part." I say casually

"I'm gonna miss that sense of humor." He says quietly to himself

Miss? I decide to ignore what he said because maybe I hear him wrong. I hope.

"So, um, what did you want to talk about?" I ask after a moment of silence

I don't like this.

He takes my hand and guides us over to the swings. He sits down on one and I copy.

"You know what I'm just going to say it." Luke sighs

"Say what?" I ask nervously

"I'm moving back to Australia." He replies sadly

He's what?

"I don't think I heard you right, can you repeat please?" Please tell my he didn't say moving as in leaving

"I'm moving to Australia." He repeats for me

My heart just stopped beating. I only feel sadness and anger right now but I don't know which will surface first.

"I hate you." Anger it is

Luke stops swinging and stays completely still.

"Know you don't."

I know I don't I'm just ticked off that he's moving.

"Why are you leaving me here?" I frown

"It's not my decision. My mum wants me to grow up where I was born and made memories. If I could l would stay here, with you." He trails off

"Are you just leaving?" I purse my lips

"No the boys are coming. They're like apart of the family, we do things together." He states

"Oh, so you're all leaving me then." A tear rolls down my cheek

"Don't put it like that. Just say it's a vacation." He turns to me
