You were there - a Luke Brooks/Janoskians fanfiction

Chapter 4

I and Maria watch while Luke, Jai, Beau, James and skip are doing the rainbow milk challenge. it was so funny, Luke only threw up a few times, unlike Beau, i dont think he stopped... roughly an hour goes by and the last drinker finishes his just of milk, they wipe mouths and we start to walk home. a few minuets later i get a call... its my mum... why would she be calling me? she should be at work... i answer.

"Hello? Mia? is that you?"

"Yeah mum, its me..."

"Its your father sweetie..." she starts crying "hes.... hes..." i can tell what she's going to say... "Gone..." i drop my phone on the floor and stop walking. Luke notices. my eyes quickly flood with tears and everyone turns to look at me. i cant... i cant do it... i cant put up with the 'oh im so sorry' bullshit... i just cant. Not again. I run all the way back to my house which is about a mile away from where we were.

i get home and cry my eyes out for hours, i didn't think i was ever going to stop.

i hear a knock at the door a little while later. i open it, my eyes are bloodshot. its Luke, he has my phone in his hand. he hands it to me "Thanks..." i mutter, staring at the floor

"I dont know what's happened, but you wanna talk about it? im here if you need me, anytime...even at like 4am and i'll probably look like a zombie, but i'll still be here" a tear runs down my face, i nod, he wipes the tear away, i walk back to my sofa, leaving the door open so Luke has to come in, he comes over to the sofa and raps me up into my blanket, he cuddles me as i cry.

"So are you going to tell me what happened? it helps getting it off your chest" he said coming out of the cuddle.

"My dad got diagnosed with cancer back when i was 11, hes been in and out of hospital since then... but lately he gotten worse...we knew that he didn't have long to live... but then my mum got her big promotion in work... and we moved here...and i met you...and things got happy again....but dad was going down hill pretty fast...we knew there wasn't long left... but i didn't know how bad loosing my dad would feel...even when he wasn't there, he was still in my life... he died today... and it feels like a part of me died with him..." i say as the tears pour out of my eyes...

"Im here" he says embracing me into a huge hug... its not long before we're both drifting in and out of sleep...but i kept thinking about jade...Jade had gone to her friends for the night, she didnt know that dad had died... i didnt want to upset her...

4 hours later-11pm

-Lukes p.o.v-

Mum will kill me for being out this late... but i dont care, Mia needs me... i pull out my phone and tell jai to tell mum not to worry, im staying over a friends house... id have to face the music in the morning, but i couldnt leave Mia like this... she stirred in her sleep... i pick her up and take her to her room, i pulled off her jeans that she had quickly thrown on before we left to record the new video and put a pair of trackies on her, i took off her jacket and left her in her vest, i pick her up again and put her in bed, i take my jacket off and lie down on the floor, i throw a blanket over me and fall asleep...

i woke up at 8am to an empty house... Mia was still fast asleep... i decide to make breakfast... what does Mia like...? bacon? eggs? cerial? hmm.... i walk into the kitchen and take out all of the above..

after 2 hours of cooking Mia walks downstairs to see the mountains of food i have made...

"Wow..." she mumbles

"Yeah..." i laugh, she smiles... its nice to see her beautiful smile... i hope she's okay...

"thank you...for everything...you mean... so... so much to me..." she says giving me a huge hug, i kiss her cheek
