An hour and a half later, we were still driving around. I swear we made it around all the sketchy back roads in this big town. And we have a ton. Luke told me everything that happened and explained why I couldn't remember a thing.

                  Last night

Luke finished his cigarette and stood up. He held his cold hand out towards me. I took it and slowly got up off the dirty ground. The alcohol was already getting to me I could tell.

We stood facing eachother, hand in hand. He was as tall as a giraffe though so I had to look up to see his face. He slowly looked around taking in our surroundings.

Luke's baby blue eyes quit wandering and found mine. One second our eyes are locked and the next his hands are in my hair and he is slowly leaning in. He hesitated just about an inch away from my lips. I quickly closed the gap kissing him roughly.

He sighed and pulled away. I rested my forehead on his, already out of breath. He sighed.

"We should probably get back before people notice we are missing."

I assume he could sense my disappointment. He pulled me close and whispered in my ear,
"Don't worry this isn't the end."

He gave me another quick kiss. I could feel the smirk on his lips. We went straight to the bar after walking in the dark room. Luke ordered two shots of something I have never heard of before. He handed one to me.

"To us. And, well, the band of course."

"To us" I mumbled while throwing my head back, letting the liquid slide down my throat. It burned like hell but I didn't care. We sat up at the bar for a while he ordered me drinks with names I couldn't even pronounce

I think it was our 3rd round of shots of something that tasted like cinnamon and burned like hell. After I quickly swallowed mine, I noticed Luke gazing at me. My cheeks turned pink.

"You are beautiful Amber. You know that right?"

Before I could even begin to answer, his soft lips found mine. It was a short but sweet kiss. Luke pulled back and called the short brunette bartender over. Before she could make it to us Ashton showed up.

"Well look who I found! Calum, Michael! Come here!" Ashton eyed me suspiciously .

As Michael and Calum walked to us, Calum laughed hysterically at something Michael said.

"I think its time to go back to our flat now, don't you think?" Mike and Calum nodded in agreement to Ashtons suggestion.

"Well me and Amber are gonna stay here. Right Amber?"

Ashton looked at me shocked. Either Luke gave up on his no drinking thing or he's already had too many. I shrugged my shoulders not knowing what to say.

"Right. Well I guess we will see you at the house then" Ashton, Calum and Michael both left the noisy bar.

"I need a drink. I'll be back."

"Wait Amber." Luke grabbed my hands and turned me around. He tried to look into my eyes but mine seemed to wonder everywhere but by him. His hands were soon in my hair. He slowly leaned in closing the already small gap between us.

"I told you that wasn't the end," he barely spoke onto my lips. And ever so gently he kissed my lips. Just enough to make me want more. He pulled back and smirked at me. I scooted closer to him and put hand on the back of his neck.

"Oh no no no. Go get your drink Amber we will continue I promise."

I have no clue what has happened to me. Luke and I are meant to be friends. Best friends. Someone I can tell everything too and trust. And now, it's gonna all be ruined. I need to go home.

I was completely off track and walked back to Luke. I even forgot my drink. My plan was to walk right up to him and tell him this is wrong and I need to go home. Instead, right when I walked up to the table he immediately kissed me. I lost my train of thought as soon as his soft lips found mine.

I pulled back gasping for air. He was doing the same with a satisfied look. I scooted even closer and sat on his lap. I started leaning again licking my bottom lip. We were almost an inch apart when he spoke.

"I think we should get out of here and go somewhere a little quieter?"

I eagerly nodded. So my plan didn't work whatever. Maybe we will both end up passed out.

I was soon being pulled out of the bar into the cold dark night. The stars and moon were nowhere in sight. It was almost scary in a way. We found his way to his car.

"I am not getting in a car with you driving Luke." I couldn't believe that he thinks he's gonna drive after how much he has drank.

"Oh don't worry babe. I'm perfectly fine to drive." He chuckled at himself almost as if it was his own private joke.

I didn't even know where we were going. We raced the streets almost as if we were being chased. We eventually pulled up to his flat. I looked at him with a confused look. He just smiled at me and motioned for me to follow him.

We stopped in front of the door. He began kissing me passionately. He lifted me up, my arms wrapped around him and arms clinging to his neck for dear life. He unlocked his door while still kissing me with no trouble at all.

He carried me through the dark to his room. I slowly moved down his jawline to his neck. He moaned in approval. Luke set me on his bed and took his dark blue button up shirt off and kicked his shoes off.

He slowly took my shimmering heels off and moved to my dress. He slowly unzipped the back of it and tossed somewhere. I was too mesmerized to notice where.

"You won't be needing that anymore."
Luke smirked his famous smirk and began hungrily kissing me.
