Possessed Thoughts - Luke and Jai Brooks Fanfiction.

Chapter 9

I was abruptly woken up after being asleep on the sofa for a while, by the door being closed and footsteps coming closer, except they totally missed the living room and carried on walking.

"Hi Ashley." I could hear his voice, he sounded upset.

"Hey babe, are you okay? Have you been crying?" I could hear her reply before standing up and carefully walking and standing in the kitchen doorway.

"Not really no." He said, his back turned to me. Mum had seen me but played it off - she was literally the best.

"What's up? Sit down, do you want a drink?" She asked opening the fridge and grabbing two cans of beer, I chuckled quietly shaking my head.

He opened the can before explaining what had happened beforehand and began crying again slightly.

"I was really starting to like her." He finished, breaking my heart.

And then I realised, Jai was the one for me. Not Luke. It was just lust between us in the kiss, I didn't feel butterflies or anything. Not like with Jai.

"And she really likes you too, heck I haven't seen her like this since Ryan - her ex from ages back - you light up her day, she's different. You changed her. For the good." She looked up at me and I could tell what she was about to do. I nodded signalling for her to say it and walked away.

I couldn't bring myself to listen.

"Has she told you about what happened before we came here?" Was all I heard before walking up the stairs and plugging in my earphones.

(A/N this next bit could be quite triggering so just go easy).

I was interrupted from my babes 1D and jamming out to No Control when Jai walked into the room and I paused my phone.

"Show me your arms." He demanded, I couldn't read his face and how he was feeling.

I shook my head an looked away, causing him to sit down next to me and place his hand on my leg.

"Please baby." He said softly.

I slowly rolled up my sleeves, to see the marks that had previously been made by me.

I saw a tear drop from Jai's eye, before he picked up my arms and softly kissed every little mark.

"You've changed me for the better, I promise I didn't mean to hurt you. He kissed me and I was just in shock and stuff. It was weird." I shook my head.

"I realised earlier that it didn't mean anything to me. You do. You give me butterflies." I smiled shyly before looking down at my lap to see my arms again, I rolled my sleeves down again and looked up at his face.

"Will you be my girlfriend Bea?" He smiled, the grin on my face grew bigger as I began to nod.

He leaned in for a kiss and that was when I knew. Luke wasn't the one.

The kiss was interrupted with my phone buzzing again-

'So this is how it's going to work huh? I'm your bit on the side? Great lie by the way. Really got you some brownie points didn't it;)'

I mentally groaned before looking back up at the dark brown eyes, they weren't chocolatey like Lukes, the were a harsher brown, a represent for hurt almost.

That was my fault.

"Baby." I whispered, shaking Jai slightly. I went down and kissed his shoulder as he was facing the opposite way to me.
