*Luke's POV*

I dont know how im going to tell Amanda that i have to leave next week. September 28th if you wanna get technical. I rolled over and looked at her clock. 12:38. She should be getting home soon. Being that it is a Saturday, her and her brother decided to go grocery shopping since niether of them were busy with work or school. They left around 10 so they should be back in a little bit. Just then, i heard a couple of car doors slam and the front door of the house open. "Luke? Im home!" She yelled. I heard her run up the steps and watched as her smile widen once she locked eyes with me. She walked to me and gave me hug and kissed me on the cheek. "Hi cutie." She smiled and went over and sat down at her computer desk. "Baby i need to talk to you." I said and she swiftly turned her chair around. "Whats up?" She asked and i let out a loud breath. "I-" "Luke i know about the tour in Aus." She interupted and my eyes widened. "You do?" I asked and she nodded. "Well yeah. I do have your twitter notifications on. Along with the other boys and the band account. You know that you idiot." She laughed and i slapped my hand onto my forehead. "I am so stupid." I groaned. "Only a little bit." She giggled and turned herself back around, facing her laptop again. "Hey! That wasnt very nice." I whined and got up and walked over to her. I bent down and wrapped my arms around her and rested my head on top of hers. "So you're not mad?" I asked and she shook her head. "Of course im not Lewi. I mean, yeah im sad, but i know you wont be gone long. You'll be back on tour for 5 days and then you'll go see you family for a couple days. I can handle another week without you." She said and i spun her around to face me. "But i hate leaving you here alone Amanda." I mumbled. "Luke im not alone. I have Nick here, you know that. And Emily is right down the street. Im sure she'll want to hang out after you and Calum leave. I will be okay. I promise." She said and reached out her pinky. I saw the gesture and latched mine onto hers. "And if you're not you'll call me right away right? I dont care what time, whether it be 3 in the morning or 9 at night, call me. I will always be there for you." I explained and she nodded. I got down to my knees and pressed my lips to hers. We pulled away gently and she rested her head on my chest. "How did i get so lucky?" She mumbled. "I wonder the same thing baby."

*Amanda's POV*

Ive been sitting at my laptop for the past half hour trying to figure out what to write for my english assignment. We have to write up a resume and put on there the things we've accomplished in high school. I guess i shouldnt have wasted the first 3 years of it huh? I exhaled loudly and put my head in my hands. I felt a pair of hands gently grasp my shoulders. "Anything i can help you with?" Luke asked pulling over my vanity stool and sitting down next to me. "Not unless you can take me back in time so i cant stop myself from fucking up 3/4's of my high school career." I snapped. Luke stayed silent. "Im sorry.." I mumbled. "Its okay baby. I get it. You're stressed. Its your last year of high school and its stressful. I understand." He smiled. "Luke thats not just the reason why im stressed. Im stressed because i was an idiot and wasted the first 3 years of high school. Sophomore year i didnt do shit in school. I was too depressed and unmotivated. I didnt get involved or join any clubs like my other friends. My transcript looks awful. I have a 1.98 GPA Luke. No college wants someone with that low of a GPA!" I sobbed and Luke came over and hugged me. "You're not an idiot Amanda. Dont you ever say that. And hey, you're getting involved now right?" He asked and i nodded. "Well then thats all that matters. The fact that you're trying to better yourself is good. Great even. I understand Sophomore and Junior year was a hard time for you. I know that. But this is your chance to right your wrongs. And i know you can do it. I believe in you." He finished and i hugged him tighter. "Thanks Luke. You're the best." I smiled and wiped the tears off of my cheeks. "Anytime sweetie. Now whats this homework you're doing?" He asked and i showed him the assignment. "So you put down that you wanted to be an Art Teacher right?" He questioned and i nodded. "So you need to put down some of your accomplishments in that subject?" "Yeah. But i didnt accomplish anything. I never won any awards on my art projects." I stated and Luke shook his head. "I think you're forgetting about Muke over there." He laughed and pointed at my penguin sculpture that sat on the shelf above my closet. "Oh my god i completely forgot that i got 1st place on that!" I yelled and quickly typed it onto my resume. "And you also have had a B+ average throughout every art class. Isnt that an accomplishment?" He asked and i nodded typing that down as well. I quickly perfected the last bit of my resume then printed it out. "Thank you so much Lewi. I cant believe i forgot about Muke! He was the only project that i made that won an award. Im just thankful that Mr. Vitale thought it was 1st place worthy." I laughed and Luke smiled, kissing my cheek. "No problem cutie. Thats what im here for."
