Two Of A Kind

Chapter 5

"Kiara!" Caitlin yelled. I shot up and looked around. I was in Caitlin's room. Oh yeah, the sleep over. I ran my fingers through my hair. It must have been a dream. It was all a dream.

"Kiara, come on we have to get ready." Tess said.
"For what?" I asked confused.
"Your date, you shitsicle." Maykenzey said. It wasn't a dream... It was real. It Was Real! I Really Did Meet Luke Hemmings! I Did!
"Now just wear something pretty, but casual." Caitlin said. I nodded. Caitlin opened her closet and chose a couple outfits for me to wear. Tess stood there silently looking at the three black outfits in front of me and her.
"She's going on a date. Not to a funeral." Tess said.
"Well, my style is all about death so that's all I have." Caitlin said. I laughed and started brushing my bed head.
"Why don't we just pick something out on the way." Maykenzey said.
"But I don't have any money." I said.
"Then I will buy it for you." She said.
"No, no, no you don't have to do that." I said.
"Shut the fuck up. Your going on a date with Luke Hemmings and I am going to buy you your outfit so you look like a sexy beast, you understand?" She said. I giggled and nodded.
"Good, now I'm starving." She said. Caitlin nodded and we all followed her out of the kitchen.

We walked into Tilly's and immediately, we all split up and looked around the store. I found some brown boots that were knee high. They were combat boots. I liked them. Now all I had to do was find an outfit. I walked past the fitting rooms and was attacked by my three idiotic friends.
"Look what we found!" Tess shrieked. She held out a jean jacket. Caitlin wrapped a brown belt around my shoulders. And Maykenzey put a white puffy skirt on my head. I couldn't see anything but the white, layered netting material that covered my eyes.
"Well, I like the skirt." I said giggling. Tess pulled the skirt off my head and held out her jean jacket.
"Try it on." She said. I nodded and took the pieces of clothing and tried them on.

I walked out of the stall with the boots, skirt, belt, and jean jacket on. Tess awed and Maykenzey squealed.
"The belt is what made it awesome, my ideas are the best." Caitlin said.
"No, it was the skirt. It's the best part of her outfit." Maykenzey argued.
"Fuck you guys, it was the jean jacket." Tess said. They started arguing playfully.
"Guys, guys." I said, they all looked at me and stopped arguing, "It was the boots. My idea." I gestured to the boots. We all giggled and then we bought the outfit.

Tess insisted that we curled my hair so we drove to a near by hair salon, where her aunt worked. Her aunt did it for free and we thanked her and left.

Caitlin, Tess, and Maykenzey dropped me off at the boys hotel. We all walked inside so they could say hello. We knocked on the door and Luke answered it. He was wearing a red flannel and black skinny jeans. He was wearing black vans.
"Hello." He said his accent thick. God I can't get over that accent.
"Hi." I simply said.
"Do you want to come in?" He asked. I nodded and walked inside. My friends followed behind me and saw the rest of the boys laying on the beds watching a movie on Netflix.
"Hi!" Michael yelled with a mouthful of popcorn. I giggled and waved. Ashton smiled widely.
"Hi guys. Want to come watch a movie with us?" He asked. He was obviously talking to the other girls.

They nodded and sat on one of the beds. Caitlin did not hesitate to sit right next to Michael. Maykenzey sat a couple inches away from Ashton but he scooted closer to her. Calum pulled Trina toward him and she giggled and smiled at him.

Luke cleared his throat.
"Um, you look very beautiful tonight." He said. I smiled at him and blushed.
"Thank you." I said, "And you look very handsome." He smiled at me.
"Thank you." He said.

Then it was silent. Everyone watches to movie playing on the screen. The guns went off and we watched people fall to the ground. One man was shot in the eye and I cringed. Not the movie for me.
"Uh, we're gonna go now." Luke said, obviously sensing my disgust toward the movie. Everyone muttered a 'bye'. They were all too intrigued in the movie in front of them.

Luke and I walked down the long halls silently. We got in the elevator and our hands reached out to push the button for the first floor. Our hands touched for a split second before I pulled away. He smiled at me and pushed the button. The doors closed and we started moving downwards. Luke grabbed my hand and I blushed. I felt his warm smile towards me. The doors opened and we walked out of the elevator.

We walked through the large room. The colorful fountain was make the faint sounds of water trickling. A few people took pictures of us and I looked at Luke for a sign of emotion, but saw none. He pushed through the double doors and we saw a few girls walk towards him with cameras. I was kind of scared what they were going to do. He smiled at me and looked forward again.
"Luke, can we take a picture."
"Well, I'm kind of on a date right now but if it's okay with her-" He was saying.
"Yeah. I'll take it." I said. I looked at him and he smiled. The girl thanked me and handed me her phone I took a few pictures and handed it back.
"Can I take a picture with you?" She asked. I was shocked by her request. I nodded and we took a selfie together. She thanked me and waved us good bye. I smiled at Luke and he smiled at me.

We walked down the street till we saw the van near by. He opened the door for me and I smiled and got inside. He got in the drivers seat and put the key in the ignition. The van started and we pulled out of the parking lot and started down the road.
"So, I want to get to know you better." Luke said.
"Okay. How about we play Twenty Questions." I said. He nodded.
"I'll start. What was the best day of your life?" He asked.
"Yesterday. Defiantly yesterday. I went to one of your concerts. Then met the band and went and got pizza. My favorite band too." I said. He smiled.
"Well, I'm glad that we're your favorite." He said. I smiled and nodded.
"This questions has been haunting me for years. What did you think of Ashton's ex girlfriend Bryanna Holly?" I asked.
"Oh god, she was a bitch." He said. I bursted out into laughter.
"I know I'm supposed to be nice to my best friend's girlfriend and I was. The nicest I could be, but he was always with her and she hated the fans. And just-ugh. I can't even talk about her." He said. I giggled.
"Did you like Bryanna Holly?" He asked. I laughed.
"Fuck no. She was an ugly ass bitch with a perverted mind, a terrible personality, and the worse attitude ever. I mean, she fat shamed those poor girls. I felt so bad she didn't need to be a bitch about it." I said.
"True." He said.
"What's it like at home, like with your brothers and parents?" I asked.
"Well, my moms controlling, too controlling. My dad is awesome. I love my dad. And my brothers and just these grown men that visit me once in a while." He said. I laughed.
"That's life I guess." I said.
"What's it like with your family?" He asked.
"Well, my mom left me when I was three. My dad has been taking care of me, my older brother, my younger brother, and my sister. Then my dad started dating and his girlfriend lives I with us. And she brought her two daughters and her son. They're all younger than me, though. But life's hard, I mean I have a lot of chores annoying children that never leave me alone. I'm so happy I got my own room it's my only safe haven." I said.
"Wow, so your like the mom of the family?" He asked. I nodded.
"Sort of, but not a very good one. They all hate me." I said. He giggled.
"I bet they don't hate you." He said. I nodded.
"I mean I don't know. They act like they do." I said, "Anyways, what's your best trait."
"Sexiness." He said and I giggled, "No, probably kindness. I try to be nice to everyone and it usually works out." I nodded.
"What's your best trait?" He asked.
"Caring. I just care and it helps wether it's a scraped knee or a broken heart I care." I said. He smiled and nodded at me.

We pulled up to the park outside and I saw children playing in the basketball court while some ran around on the playground. I was snapped out of my daze, when Luke opened the passenger door.
"My lady." He said trying to pull off and English accent. I giggled.
"Thank you kind sir." I said in an English accent. We both giggled and he grabbed my hand and intertwined our fingers. I smiled and we stepped onto the cement trail.

I've walked this trail plenty of times before. With my family, friends, the dog, my past boyfriends, and by myself, but now I was walking with Luke Hemmings. Screw all the memories that I had walking down this trail. I was walking with Luke Hemmings. And that's all that matters.
