I type in my twitter password and scroll through my feed, quickly finding Luke's name and clicking on it.

'I am so stupid why' was his latest tweet. And before that?

'I don't want to do it without her. I can't.'

'Trying to fall out of love is impossible. Shut up Romeo, you know nothing. Heartbreak sucks, man.' I smile at this one. Still sassy. Forever sassy.

'Why do bad things happen to good people, my head hurts'

And the fans,

'Is Luke in love? WITH WHO!!??'

'Apparently not anymore'

'who did this to you baby :'( '

'Imma have to cut a bitch'

'wtf who is this about'

'Awww Luke honey it's okay we'll get through this together! Stay strong babe! Xxx'

'I love you boy'

aw janoskianators :')

And then I see one reply that I peer at.

'Jessamyn.' that's all it says. I go to click on the name when Cece storms in.

"Jess, what the fuck are you doing?"

"Um, not stalking my ex-boyfriend." I mumble guiltily, shutting my laptop and putting it to the side. She gives me a pointed glare. I groan. "Cece, oh my god. I miss him so much." I moan. "My heart hurts."

"Oh, give it up. You know what that boy has been doing for the past 3 days? Nothing. Anytime anyone tries to have a conversation with him, he ends up babbling about you and he doesn't do anything but sleep, yet he can't even do that properly! Rumour has it, he is moaning your name every. Single. Night. And nobody can do anything about it. Seriously, what the hell were you thinking? What are you supposed to do now, huh? Get a new boyfriend? Replace LUKE BROOKS? Jesus Christ, Jess, I'm surprised I'm not yelling to an empty room yet, seriously get your butt over there and get him back before somebody else does, or worse before he dies of an overdose of moping. He's probably committed already, and you can take that either way, committed to a girl or committed suicide, or even committed to Jesus, to be honest, I don't care, as long as you get over there in time to stop him. Pick it up girlfriend. Oh wait that's right you aren't a girlfriend because you are nobody's girlfriend because you stupidly broke up with your lovely and perfectly fine boyfriend."

My eyes widen as I stare at her. "Oh," I breathe. She nods at me, her eyes reading, 'no shit'. I jump up and let out a shriek.

"What have I done? Oh my god, oh god, no. Cece, I can't do anything now, he's probably already got another girlfriend, oh my god." I pace back and forth before slumping onto my window seat and putting my head in my hands. "No. Luke, no." I whisper, before jumping up. "I have to go find him," I'm muttering whilst running around my room collecting my phone and shoes, slipping my converse on without doing up the laces and sliding out the window. "Oh, Cece?" I say, stopping on a branch of the mango tree. "Mm hmm?" She says, chin in hand as she lays on her stomach on my bed, clicking the mouse on my laptop. "Where would he be?"

"Home, dickhead. Brooks' Residence!" she sings the last bit.

"Okay, cool. And thank you. You're a good friend... Sometimes." I laugh, joking with her. "Oh and lock up, will you?" I say as I slide down the trunk, hitting the ground and running. I hear her laugh and go faster. The light is dying down and the sky is a wonderful shade of pink but I have time for only one thing: fixing my mistake.

I race through the deserted street and finally get to the Brooks' Residence! I fly through the door into the cosy little house and I am immediately greeted by shouts of wonderment and yay by his brothers. But I want to see him and him only. Regardless, I walk into Beau's arms and let him wiggle me around. "Yay, you're back. I knew you guys wouldn't stay broken up for long. James owes me $10." I slap his arm. "You bet on our relationship!?" I step away. He shrugs. "Only a few times." I look at him. "You disgust me." I joke. "Aw, thanks, love." He winks. Suddenly I get scooped up in a hug from behind. "My turn!" Jai sings gleefully. "Ugh, finally. I haven't been able to sleep because all he's been doing these past nights is dreaming about you." He says. I cock my head and look at him, a confused look on my face. He gives me a pointed look. "He is moaning your name every. single. night. I cant sleep." he lays it down for me. I suddenly gasp in realisation. I flick my eyes from side to side and lean in so he can hear me whisper, "like... Dirty?" I ask in wonder, quietly. "Uh huh." He laughs and pats my head. I blush and cover my face. "Oh, my god." I smile, embarrassed. "Well, go on." He pushes me gently in the back. "I want my sleep back." I throw him a dirty look over my shoulder and proceed through the Brooks' Residence! towards his room. I let out a deep sigh when I push open the door slightly and see him, curled up in his bed, asleep, the blankets tangled around him. I feel a sudden rush of feelings. I just, love him so much. Why did I ever, ever, even think about being without him? Because I can't. I know it sounds stupid but I don't think I can possibly live without him in my life. I sneak into the room and shut the door behind me, going to stand at his bed and watch him murmur in his sleep. I affectionately stroke back hair from his sweaty forehead and lean down, going to plant a kiss on his cheek but I am instead interrupted by arms encircling me and hands cupping my butt and pulling me closer to his drowsy but undeniably open and awake eyes. He smirks. "I knew you'd come back to me," He murmurs in a sleepy husky sex voice. I let out a sigh/moan/chuckle. "Luke.." I say, about to apologise for all the things I have done. "Sh.." He murmurs, pulling me into his arms and deep into his bed, entangling his sheets and body with mine.

I am woken by a sudden jolt. I open my heavy eyelids to see that the room has darkened considerably due to dying light and the dim image of Luke scampering backwards, pulling the covers with him. he is staring at me. "Lu-Luke?" I say, rubbing my eyes tiredly. "JESS?" He questions, wide eyed. "I thought I was dreaming. I could've sworn to God that was a dream." He whispers. I go to comfort him but he moves away. "N-no. That was a dream." He says. "Luke, it wasn't. I'm here now." I say reassuringly. "I'm here." I whisper, reaching out a hand to touch his face. He grabs it before I can and pulls my body towards his, looking into my eyes intently. "Do you forgive me?" He questions, eyes searching my face. "Yes," I say, confidently with no hesitation. There is a pause. I look down at my lap. "Do.. Do you forgive me?" I ask tentatively, my eyes still trained on my fidgeting hands. "Yes. No. I don't know." He says, rubbing his forehead. "What's there to forgive? Can't we just forget it?" He says, his eyes wide. I sit there, gazing at him for a while. "Luke," I sigh. "Do you still love me?"

"Yes. I will never stop."

"I love you too, Luke. I love you so, so much. And that's all that matters, right?"

"Right."

"I'm so lucky to have you."

"Me too. Dammit, Jess, you're making me soft." He frowns. I giggle and crawl into his arms. "Never." I whisper.
