Sorry I've been late updating !
------------------------------------
After school Luke and Taylor went searching for Noah, as they do almost everyday .
"Why won't he come home!" Taylor yelled as her eyes filled with tears.
"Hey, hey. Look at me." Luke lifted her chin so she would look at him.
"He will come home once he's cooled off."
Taylor couldn't help but let the tears spill out. Warm tears streamed down we face. Luke picked her up bridal-style and she cried into his chest.
"I'm taking you home. " he said.
Taylor just kept crying, but nodded her head so he would know that she heard him.
~
Luke put Taylor down once they reached her front patio. Only Luke's care remained in the driveway, as Taylor's parents were either working, or out looking for Noah.
Taylor grabbed her keys out of her bag and unlocked the front door, then she began to slowly climb the stairs
to her room.
"Uhhh ..." Taylor groaned as she flopped face first onto her bed.
Luke sat down next to her and generally rubbed her back and neck.
"Don't worry. He's , as of today, 17. He can take care of himself."
She sat but still laying in her stomach using her elbows to hold her up.
"The thing is, it's been two-and-a-half weeks and he's not back. He ran away once when we were little , I cried and cried because I thought he wasn't going to come back . When he did he promised her would never leave me again, but now he's gone ."
"I'm sorry Tay. I truly am."
"I know you are." Taylor cracked a small grin. "I'm taking a nap."
"Ok. Well I better get going th-"
"No. Stay here, please. I don't wanna be alone anymore."
Luke stared at her blankly before nodding his head and climbing on the bed next Taylor.
"It's s-s-so cold." she shivered.
It was December 12th in Colorado and it was only 10 degrees outside. Snow plastered the driveways, sidewalks and roads in many cities.
Luke scooted closer to her and wrapped his arms around her
~ 4:30 pm ~
Taylor and Luke both woke up to the sound their phones beeping with text messages from the weather channel app they have.
•Weather Alert•
Blizzard warning until 4:30 pm December 13th.
"Uhhhg. Really?" Luke complained
Standing up, Taylor walked to her closet and pulled out a bundle of blankets. "Let's go to the basement. It's surprisingly warmer down there."
Luke and Taylor walked downstairs. Taylor kicked the blankets down the basement stairs, like went to the kitchen to get drinks and snacks.
"I'm going to get our phones and
my laptop!"
"OK!"
~
The two sat downstairs and talked, enjoying eachothers presence.
"I wonder if Noah misses me..."
"Of course he does! Who wouldn't miss you." Luke pinched her cheek.
She just smiled at him and swatted his hand away.
"What's that on your shirt Tay?" he pointed at a blue fuzz
"That's just fUU-"
Luke began to tickle Taylor's stomach.
"S-st-stop. PlEEEase."
"NEVER!"
"Omg LUKE."
"Ok, ok! I'm done" he put his hands up I'm serenader.
"THANK YOU!"
"Alright let's go back up stairs."
Luke stretched out his hand for Taylor.
"I don't wanna get up."
Luke sighed and picked her up.
"I love youuuu Lukieee."
"I love you too Tay."
~
" ' When your ready come and get it, na na na na, na na na na, na na na -' " (Taylor's phone)
"Hello."
"Hi sweetie! Its mom an dad-"
"Step, dad." Taylor interrupted
"Oh, uh. Sorry. But all the roads are closed and we are stuck at the mall." 'Melissa' said frantically
"Well I guess not. At least you aren't alone."
"Yea. I didn't want to be alone."
"Ok, well we will be home as soon as
possible!"
"Alright love you bye."
