She's Kinda Hot tho

Chapter 32:How To Make Her Confess

LUKE'S POV:

"For fuck's sake, Eve. Please." I begged into the phone.

"Luke stop asking." She groaned. I heard the shower turn on and glanced up at the door making sure Sheila wasn't coming out. I don't quite know how I'd explain to her that i was talking to her supposedly dead mum.

When the coast was clear, I replied, "Eve. Please. We're holed up in a hotel... just come here. She needs you."

"She's got all she needs and he's right there with her. Luke please just don't get me involved, people will seriously get hurt." She breathed into the phone, clearly irritated.

"She already is hurt." I growled and hung up irritably. I tossed my phone and laid down with a heavy sigh. What are we going to do?

The sheets smelled like her. My clothes smelled like her. I smelled like her. I couldn't be any happier...

"Luke!" Sheila called sweetly. "Do you want to come shower with me?" She asked.

Mmm tempting... "I showered before you woke up." I told her, picking up my phone again and trying to think of a plan. Has mum tried looking for me yet? Is Gus hurting her..?

My stomach twisted. I'd been abandoning my mum this whole time in exchange for a girl...

Sheila came out with a white towel wrapped around her about ten minutes later and started drying herself right in front of me, clearly trying to arouse me.

It would've worked, trust me it definitely would've worked, if my brain wasn't swamped with such heavy thoughts about mum and Gus. And this whole damn situation we were in.

"What's wrong?" She sighed, slipping on jeans and a t-shirt and laying next to me, her head on my shoulder. I rested my chin on her head and sighed.

"I can't just leave my mum with Gus." I whispered. "It isn't right."

Sheila sat upright, a look of horror on her face. "My dad isn't a monster Luke." She gaped.

"Sheila... he's hurt you." I replied, shocked.

"He did what he had too." She sneered, voice low. I just rolled my eyes and shook my head.

"Unbelievable." I muttered.

"You know what's unbelievable?" She stood up and shouted. I'd never seen her this angry before...

"Enlighten me." I quirked, voice dripping with sarcasm.

"The fact that you would manipulate me into having sex with you! You knew that I was sad and bent up about everything so you just knew how to play your cards, Luke!" She screamed, eyes and face red. Woah what...

"Furthermore i'm only 17, i could get you in so much trouble. You broke the law Luke! More than once! You could be charged with kidnapping you know that right?"

I didn't recognize her with that expression on her face. That look of disgust and craziness.

"Sheila please stop. Where is this coming from?" My voice was soft and fragile, reflecting how sensitive I was on the inside. I hated feeling this weak and exposed. This is what happens when you fall in love... your guard slips...

"It's coming from here!" She pointed to her head. "And here..." Sheila then pointed to her heart. Tears were rushing down her cheeks more furiously than ever.

"Sheila please..." I felt a tear slide down my cheek. "What can I do to make it better?" I asked. "I'll do anything!"

A dead look spread across her face. "Go back in time Luke. Take me back to when my mum was alive. Take me back to before i met you."

Ow... oww.. so many daggers. What is this feeling of sorrow? She doesn't mean it... Sheila no... My head was swarming with confusion and sadness, i felt a pressure in my head that could end in tears. I was at a loss for words. So that's why when she turned to leave I murmured; "Your mum's alive, Sheila."
