2.5 "Just For This One Night"

Thursday, November 13, 2014 - night

Luke's POV

"Luke! Luke! Can you slow down?!" Ashton chases me after I walked out of the place. I stop and turn around to face him.

"Didn't you say you were going to wait in there for Hailey?" 

"Luke, what just happened in there?" he asked ignoring my question.

"Nothing" I shrugged but before I can turn around to walk away he grabs my arm and forcefully pulls me back.

"Luke fucking Hemmings. You just made Hailey cry and that is not 'nothing'. Now tell me now before I do something that I'll regret" Ashton said angrily.

I've never seen Ashton so mad before. I always knew he gets really defensive over his close friends but I never saw it until tonight.

"We just decided to take a break for tonight" I try to say with no emotions. 

"We decided? Are you sure it wasn't just you because Hailey is crying her eyes out there right now and you still want to go to after semi? Are you stupid?" 

"You don't understand" 

"Then help me understand or I swear to fucking god Luke"

"YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ASHTON" I was screaming now. "DO YOU NOT THINK I'M HURTING TOO? I HAVE FEELINGS TOO. How the fuck do you think I feel seeing MY girlfriend hanging out with her friend more than she does with me. Or how about how she's always happier with him than with me. I notice those things Ashton. The only reason I suggested that we take a break is because I want her to realize her true feelings. If it's either to me or Calum, I just want her to know. I didn't want to do this. I love her so much, and I even told her that tonight Ashton. I told her tonight. You know it took her 3 seconds to reply back and when she said it, it didn't even sound like she fully meant it. I shook it off because I just thought she was shocked but it isn't really 'cause of that, is it?" By the time I was done blurting all of my feelings inside, I was close to tears but I just couldn't cry.

"Luke.." Ashton begins. 

"I need some time to think about it too. Just for this one night" I sigh and hail for a taxi. "So are you coming or not?"

He looks at me then at the venue behind him. He thinks for a second then said 

"yeah, let's go" 

Ashton's POV

The only reason I even agreed to going to After Semi with Luke was just so I can watch him the entire night and make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. I know he said he's on a break right now but if he hooked up with someone else that still counts as cheating. I think? I mean Ross kissed another girl when he and Rachel were on a break but Ross said it wasn't cheating while Rachel said it was...Relationships are so confusing, this is why I'm single. Well that and because I don't know if that one girl I really want to be with wants to make anything official or not and it's really killing me. Luke was trying to chug down all of the drinks we brought tonight so I gave him a limit of only the bottle of vodka. When I saw that he was finished with it by the time we arrived at the venue, I knew he was already gone for the night. That entire bottle was supposed to be for all four of us to share and the fact that he drank all of it, was definitely not a good sign. I was slightly hoping the alcohol would've kicked in earlier than usual so the security would stop him before he was able to go inside but it looks liked they couldn't care less. They honestly have ONE job. 

"Luke, don't go in without me yet. Just stay here while I put our jackets way for coat check ok?!" I tell him.

He nods his head and leans against a wall. With that, I push my way to the front of the line as much as I can. I try glancing back at Luke whenever I can but when I got near the counter I lost sight of him. After I was done with coat check I go back to the place I left Luke. Except now, he was no where to be seen. I go inside and I was immediately taken back by the flashing lights. I didn't drink at all tonight but the lights sure made me feel like I did. I walked around the entire place searching for Luke but I wasn't able to find a tall blonde boy anywhere. 

After 15 minutes of walking around, I needed some rest. I sat down on one of the couches that didn't have people hooking up on it. I scan the dance floor just one more time before I officially give up. Oh, there's Adrianna. She's so hot, but my girl's better. But I mean I wouldn't mind hooking up with Adrianna tonight even though a million guys probably already did. I mean she isn't the biggest 'Virgin Mary' of the school. Wow, right on time another guy just walked up behind her. Wow, and she started grinding on him. Big shock. Wait a minute.

Oh I'm going to kill him. 

I get up from where I was sitting and walk over to them as fast as I could. "Excuse us" I say to Adrianna and pull Luke away from her.

"Are you stupid? What are you doing?" I scream.

"Calm down. Fuck Ashton. You're ruining all the fun" he groans.

"What are you doing? Do you not remember that you have a girlfriend?"

"We're on a break remember?"

"That doesn't mean you can just cheat on her!" 

"How is dancing cheating? I just want to have some fun, that doesn't mean I'm just going to go hook up with someone"

He does have a point. He was just dancing with another girl. Maybe I was just being protective over Hailey. She's my best friend, how can I not be.

"Fine but Luke Hemmings I swear to fucking go-"

"yea yea I know 'you'll kill me'" he rolls his eyes and walks back to Adrianna. They immediately go back to what they were doing before and I walk back to the couch. I keep my eye on them for a minute before I get bored and go on my phone. I must've been on my phone for too long because when I look back at them, they were gone.

Fuck.
