Holding On (Janoskian Fanfiction)

Chapter Fourty

Elodie's P.O.V

Today Luke and I were going to decorate the babies room. I wanted the forest look, so Luke suggested that we painted it ourselves and he was an A* student at art, so he would draw the animals.

I got changed into some shorts and top and pulled on my Toms. I remember when Beau told me I looked sexy in this outfit. I had to stop thinking about him, he broke my heart. I looked down at my finger and there the ring shone. Even though we were over, I kept the ring on because deep down I still love him.

I ran downstairs and as I passed Ariana's room I saw her getting ready. "Seeing Jai today?" I asked and she nodded.

"Do I look okay?" she asked, spinning around so I could see her outfit.

"Cute!" I complimented and she hugged me. "Have fun!" I called, then ran to the car where Luke was waiting. I hopped into my car and we went to the local home décor shop.

I chose out a cream and Luke got all the colours he would need. I also chose some extra features to put on the walls, like a height measuring stick and some paintings. I paid for it and we picked up some Maccas on the way home.

When we got back to mine, Ariana was gone, so we got the brushes out and started painting. Firstly we did the cream, which went quickly and smoothly. Then I opened the green can and it splattered my face as soon as I opened it. "Ew!" I cried and Luke laughed. I scowled evilly, "revenge."

He stopped smiling and backed away from me. I dipped my brush in the paint and flicked it at Luke. It splatted onto his clothes and hair. "Oh no you did not! In the hair?!" he screeched and I hid the paint behind me.

"Pregnant woman here! No hurting!" I shouted and he laughed.

"That's not fair!" he whined and I giggled. I handed him a roller, brush and tray of paint and he started on the left side of the wall, while I took the right. We gradually made our way towards the middle and when I was in reaching distance, Luke painted a moustache on my face.

"Prank War has just been started Luke Brooks!" I exclaimed and we death stared each other. Then we finished the painting and I left Luke to carry on putting the animals and trees on.

I walked downstairs and looked around for my Doctor Martins. "Luke?" I called.

"Yeah?"

"Have you seen my Doc Martins? Did you bring them from the old house?" I asked and he stood at the top of the stairs.

"Oh no, I saw a pair in your old kitchen, but I thought they could've been Beau's. Sorry babes!" he called and I nodded.

"It's fine, I'm gonna go get them. I still have my keys, so I'll run in, get them and run out again!" I smiled and he chuckled and agreed.

I sat outside the house in my car. Should I do this?

I needed to talk to him, but what if I fell for him again and gave him another chance? I sighed and got out of  the car. Maybe he wasn't even in and I don't need to worry.

I put the key in the familiar lock and entered silently. I tip toed to the kitchen and saw the black shoes shine in the morning light. I bent down to pick them up behind the isle, when heavy footsteps walked into the kitchen. Oh God.

He still hadn't seen me because I was behind the island. I slowly stood up and thankfully he had his back to me and he was making a coffee. I silently walked to the exit, but my foot stood on the creaky floor board that had always annoyed me.

I dropped my head and I heard him whisper my name. "Elodie?" He sounded depressed, but sexy with his morning voice, even though it was 2:30.

"What?!" I snapped, facing him.
