                             Lukes Pov

It felt almost different being back in this little town, after touring the world for years with my best friends I decided for my own well being to come back here.

7:20 am

I groaned because all though i may be in a band, hell i dont think I could ever get used to waking up early.


I did what i did every morning when i lived here, toke a shower got ready and went to the diner for breakfast.



It didnt take to long to get there seeing how small this town really is, and i parked in the very front feeling lazy as it is. I took a seat at the front of the diner in a booth and awaited someone to come take my order.

I worked at the diner down the street and i loved it here, it's just a part time to help pay for my books and tuition. i was talking with june, an elderly woman who comes in every Tuesday for breakfast,"My daughters baby is due in 2 weeks, I'm so excited."


I heard the bell hanging over the door ring meaning someone arrived. I congratulated June on being a grandmother, and quickly ran behind the counter to grab my notepad.


I walked over to the booth, and from behind this man looked strangely familiar, but little did i know he was no stranger, but Luke.


It felt like his blue eyes were daggers in my skin as he eyed me, and the only thing I could feel were the tears pooling in my eyes."America, I-I-I am so sorry, I–""Fuck you," and with that I walked off.


I couldn't help but remember all the times we shared together here in this diner, all the lies he told. The tears I had welling up finally fell from my eyes down my face.


8:53 am

I clocked out. I couldn't take it anymore. I needed to be alone. Seeing him made me sick and sad at the same time, so as i drove home I couldn't help but replay the words he once told me over and over again,"I love you."

I could see the tears start to arise in America's eyes. I felt horrible that years ago my management made me leave her behind, I would've gladly taken her with me to see the world.


"Fuck you," and with that she walked off. I can't help but feel the temptation to hold her and tell her I love her, and that over the years I haven't loved anyone else but her.


I glance out the window of the diner and she her slam her car door shut and drive off. I sigh and whisper to myself,"What have you done Luke."
