How It Ends {l.h}

Chapter 21

Luke's POV

"Lauren, I'm sorry but I'm not going to keep on doing this. Neither will Bailee. We both like each other as a friend but we can't do anything like a fake date. I had a girlfriend and Bailee had close friends with her. I love my girlfriend and I've already had too many bumps with her. I'm sorry but I will not continue this stunt. Also you cannot get rid of me from the band because I, first of all, made the band and is the the lead singer. My band will protest, so will my fans and most of all I will." I say, calmly as possible into the phone.

I was, at the moment, on the phone with my publicity and the managements with Bailee. We both decided that this whole fake relationship will be discontinued.

Lauren, my publicity, sighs loudly from the other end of the phone.

"I'll check with the management, but you know what you're doing isn't going to make anyone happy right?" She glumly says.

"Yes I do." I reply quickly.

"And also, it does make me, Luke, his friends and family and my friends and family happy. Actually the only one not happy is you and the management." Bailee adds.

I give her a silent high five and we smirk at each other.

Laure, again I might add sighs loudly again.

"Okay yes. I'll call you back later." She says, obviously getting tired of us.

"Okay bye." We both chirp and end the call.

"That felt good." I state.

"Yeah."

"Now, I'll show you all my friends."

I took Bailee's phone and practically ran to the lounge, us being in kitchen, where everyone was doing their own things.

"Hey!" Grace says as soon as she noticed both of us.

The others had noticed put appearance and had their heads towards us.

"Okay guys, let me introduce you, Bailee." I announce and point to her.

And I point each one of my friends, along with their names.

"And that Grace, is my girlfriend." I say proudly.

"Hey guys." Bailee waves.

Everyone waves back and welcomes Bailee.

"Bailee, do you know any hot girl who's single and willing to date someone?" Ashton asks straight away.

"ASH!" All the girls except for Bailee scolds.

"Sorry." He says along with his giggle.

"Yeah I actually do. Her name's Brooke, she's blonde and she's actually just like you."

"Oh." Ashton says, monotone, not expected.

"You probably need to come to LA first though." Bailee explains.

"How many days until the LA show?" Calum asks no one in particular.

"Approximately 28 days." I replies, being the 'math genius' I am. Or just a nerd.

"Changing topic, because I do care about hot people but not into Ashton's love life, umm when are you guys leaving?" Michael asks the three Australian girls.

"In 2 days." Grace sighs.

There, my jaw is hanging open. I knew they would only be staying for a week or so. But of all the dramas here and there it felt like only 5 hours since I've met them.
