Remember

[31]

The next morning at school for Brooklyn was okay.

She got to school, where Marcus greeted her at her locker. She had easy classes throughout the morning. She ate lunch in the library as she worked on her homework, to get it out of the way, and the rest of the day went by easily.

She was studying at Luke's house tonight, which made her feel surprisingly giddy.

Marcus dropped her off, kissing her long and slow after making sure that Luke was watching from his place on the front porch, causing Luke to send an angry glare that Brooklyn could feel from where she was in the car. After she broke away and got out, Marcus drove off, leaving the two of them, and Brooklyn followed Luke inside.

"Are you alright?" Brooklyn wasn't an idiot. She could obviously tell that by the angry muttering, the slamming of his front door, and by the way she could so easily read his emotions through his eyes, she could tell that he was pissed off.

But she just didn't know what to do, how to approach him.

Until some sort of wierd instinct kicked in after he pushed a vase off a side table and to the ground, where it shattered immediatly.

Brooklyn jumped slightly, startled, but went over to Luke.

"Hey, Luke" she called his name, trying to get his attention, but he pushed the side table over, where it clattered to the ground.

"Hey. Luke. Listen to me." Brooklyn stood infront of the fuming blonde, grabbing his face in her hands and forcing him to focus solely on her and nothing else.

"Calm. Down. What's the problem?" she spoke softly yet firmly, and her touch on Luke sent an unknown shock throughout her. Luke seemed to have felt it too, because his eyes changed color, from almost black, to a light shade of blue.

He blinked acouple of times, staring straight into the depth of Brooyklyn's blue/green eyes.

"Nothing" he grumbled, slightly more calm now, but he shoved her hands off his face, turning his back to her and stalking off towards his kitchen.

Brooklyn followed after him, her eyebrows furrowed as she rubbed her hands together, trying to get that strange feeling to leave her.

"Luke, tell me what's wrong. I know you're pissed off at me, but why?" she pestered him, leaning against the counter as she watched him run his hand through his hair multiple times, a tactic that he did when he was either nervous or frustrated.

"Leave it alone. It doesn't concern you" his tone was hard, cold, uninviting. All things that Luke usually never was.

Brooklyn rounded the island counter, placing a hand on Luke's shoulder and turning him around to face her.

"Tell me what happened between you and Marcus?" she asked instead of what he thought she would. She knew deep down that his anger had something to do with Marcus, and she wanted to know what had caused their rivalry in the forst place.

"It was a long time ago, I'm over it" he told her, looking anywhere but at her.

"No. You're obviously not over it and I want you to tell me what it is right now" she crossed her arms over her chest, authority clear in her tone.

"I don't have to tell you anything" he fixed his narrowed eyes on her, his fists clenching at the thought of what had happened in the past.

"Yes you do"

"Why should I tell you anything?" he asked her, running his hand through his hair acouple more times.

She let out a defeated sigh, "Because I want to know what kind of person Marcus is," she shrugged her shoulders, "He's my boyfriend, and I'm curious"

Luke looked at her for a long time, trying to ignore the pain in his heart when she called Marcus her boyfriend.

"Fine. I'll tell you" he sighed in defeat, grabbing Brooklyn's hand and dragging her upstairs and to his bedroom.

"You should probably sit down for this story" he told her and he led her over to his bed. Brooklyn sat down and watched as Luke started to pace alittle bit before sitting down beside her.

He took a deep sigh, "Ok, so here's what happened"
