{Luke's POV}
"Luke?" I heard Leah call as the door closed. I opened my eyes and sat up.
"mhhhmm?" I said sitting up yawning.
"I was gone for like 5 minutes and you fall asleep?" She said placing her hands on her hips.
"mmmmmmhhhmmmm... I'm tired" I groaned. Laying back on the couch and flipping over. I closed my eyes once again. I felt Leah sit on my lower back/butt. She pushed up my shirt and started rubbing my back, just slightly gently dragging her nails, but not so it hurt.
"I'm tired too," she said as she continued to scratch my back. I loved little moments like this, I kinda laughed a little. "What?" She asked slightly raising her voice.
"You're Leah, you're always tired." I smirked, I heard her huff and I knew she had rolled her eyes at me.
"Then cuddle me to sleep." She said as she stopped scratching my back.
"NOooooooooo I want you to keep scratching my back!!" I whined, she just got up and walked away. I groaned and got up, following her into the kitchen, I wrapped my arms around her waist kissing her cheek as she tried to put away groceries.
"Luuuukkkkeee. Staaapppp. You breadstick! I need to put these away," She whined. I ignored her complaints and just kept kissing her. Making her giggle.
"Please come nap with meeeeeeeeeee" I begged she finally gave in and we went and fell asleep in her bed cuddled close together.
~Flashback Starts~
I heard a soft knock on my bed room door. I sighed, I already told mum I was doing maths homework. I set down my pencil, shaking my head I slowly walked towards my door. I opened it, surprised when I didn't see my mom standing in font on me, it was Y/N.
"Y/N? What the hell are you doing here? Never mind, get in here." I said pulling her into my room, once she stepped into the light I saw her nose was bleeding and tears were streaming down her face like rain drops on a car window. "Sit on my bed, let me get a few things" I explained as she walked towards my bed, I went and grabbed some toilet paper. "What happened this time?" I asked sitting next to her on the bed.
"S...s...she t...t...tried t...t...to h...h...hurt B...B...Brooke. S...s..s..she's d..d...d...drunk." Y/N stuttered as if she had millions of words in her head of what happened, but couldn't get a single one out. She was shaking as if it was ice cold out. She gripped the sleeves of her sweater.
"Where's Jake?" I asked placing a hand on her back. I hated their mum with all of my heart, she was abusive and was always blaming her drinking on her kids. Y/N just shrugged staring blankly at the ground. "Brooke?" I asked, Brooke was only 6 and honestly I deeply feared what she would grow up to be, she would have to watch her 2 older sibling grow up like this, but by the time came for her, she would be all alone in that hell hole.
"Jake took her, he couldn't get me out though. She was throwing bottles." Y/N said, looking up at the wall. "The only reason I got out was because she realized they were gone, so I ran like hell for the door, and didn't know where to go, so I came here." She said quietly. I nodded.
"This is the safe place. Remember? This is where your mum can't come." I said rubbing her back she nodded, I doubt she will be able to sleep tonight. We spent a few moment in silence. "Let's get you to bed." I said standing up, she slipped under the covers, I walked around and slipped in on the other side. This was kinda normal for us, we had been doing this for what? 10 years?
~Flashback Over~
"Luke. Luke. Luke wake up!" I heard, as someone was shaking my arm. I slowly opened my eyes. "Luke what's wrong?" Leah asked, her eyes looking deep into mine, as she lay in bed next to me. I felt dried tears on my face.
"what?" I mumbled opening my eyes.
"You were crying in your sleep. What's wrong?" She asked once again.
"Oh. Uh. I think I was dreaming about Y/N?" I shrugged pulling her closer to me.
"You miss her, don't you?" Leah asked, but she more as stated it.
"It... no...she..." I croaked out, but then just gave up and nodded. Leah wrapped her arms around me.
"She's happy now. This just wasn't the life for her. Please Luke, I may have never met her, but I know she would hate to see you living like this." She whispered softly, I felt the pain radiating from my heart like steam from a coffee cup. It felt as though someone was squeezing my heart, the pain just flowed through my blood stream.
{Ashton's POV}
"Okay. I will be there soon. Yep, leaving now. I love you too, Jess. Alright see you soon" I said hanging up my phone. I got in the car and turn the key in the ignition.
