It's been a week since the kiss with Luke. I've been avoiding him all week and haven't really spoken to him apart from the odd "hi" or "good morning". He hasn't particularly tried to talk to me either. He could tell that I was avoiding him, which I feel bad about, but at least it stops him from talking to me.
"Amy are you okay? You've seemed on edge all week." Jack asks.
"yeah, I'm fine I promise." I lied. What other choice did I have though? I couldn't exactly tell him the truth and say no not really I'm trying to avoid your brother because I kissed him.
I looked over Jack's shoulder to see Luke staring at me. But as soon as he saw that I noticed, he looked down at his feet.
Jack must have noticed me looking over his shoulder because he looked behind him to see what I was looking at. Of course he saw Luke and clenched his fist and snapped his head back round to facing me, making me jump.
"I swear to God if it's Luke who's messing with you." He said through clenched teeth.
"No no no! Relax it's nothing to do with Luke." I said quickly. I started to walk away but Jack grabbed my arm.
"Ouch! Get off me Jack what is wrong with you." I said sternly. He leaned in close to me and said
"Don't go near Luke. Okay?"
Jack was getting so protective over me it was starting to scare me and I had had enough. I pulled my arm out of his grip and saw I had red marks from where Jack had grabbed me, making me even more angry.
"No, not okay! I'll go near whoever I like. Stop being so protective over me, I hate it!" I practically shouted. I ran outside to the garden and sat on their bench. Tears were filling up in my eyes, threatening to spill.
I had my head in my hands when I heard someone come and sit next to me on the bench.
"Leave me alone Jack, I'm not in the mood for talking." I said trying to hold in my tears.
"Do you want Luke to leave you alone too?"
I smiled looking up to see Luke smiling at me.
"you're smiling at me, like a real smile." I chuckled. This is the first time that Luke has actually given me a truthful smile. He said it blankly but I still got a smile.
"Maybe that's because you finally told Jack how shit he's been treating you." Luke said as if I was stupid and the answer was obvious.
I rolled my eyes. "He doesn't treat me badly, he just gets a bit protective."
Luke looked down at my arm. "Then why do you have marks down your arm and tears in your eyes. He said as if I was an idiot again.
"Stop talking to me like I'm an idiot, Luke." I scolded him.
"Does it hurt, your arm?" He said looking at my eyes for a second then back down to my arm. Why can't he keep eye contact with me?
I looked down at my arm and pressed a finger on the red marks. It did hurt, a lot.
"Yes." I said, my voice cracking because of the tears.
"It's okay to cry you know?" He said quietly.
Then that was it, the tears came flowing down my cheeks. I felt like I'd been holding back my tears for every time Jack had hurt me for so long and now it was all coming out at once.
I rested my head on Luke's shoulder and he hesitated. "Sorry" I whispered lifting my head up.
"No it's fine, I liked it." he said. I smiled and put my head back on his shoulder.
"Sorry that I've been avoiding you all week. I just felt stupid and embarrassed since I, you know, kissed you."
"I liked that as well" He chuckled. "Please stop avoiding me so much. I know Jack doesn't like it when you talk to me but we can't just have private conversations like this every so often behind his back."
" I know, I'm sorry." I said, still resting my head on his shoulder.
"Stop saying sorry so much." He laughed.
This is the first conversation we have had where Luke has looked and sounded happy to talk to me. I think he's changing and becoming happier at last.
