This chapter is mostly about how London is going to recover from the incident with Luke.
Sorry I haven't updated... I've been really busy.
Anyways... Enjoy!

I walk through the school doors, terrified to see Luke.

Wow. Never in a million years would I ever even think about saying that about my best friend.

I scurry to my locker, hanging my head down, looking at the ground.

Until I run into someone. I get thrown to the dirty floor.

"Wtf bro?!" I say, getting really angry.

"London. I've been meaning to talk to you. It's really important." I hear a deep voice say. From his voice, I can tell who it is.

Luke Fields.

Here we go...

I let out an angry and impatient sigh.

"What do you want, Luke?"

"London. I'm so sorry. I don't know what got into me. I-"

He got cut off by someone. I slowly look around to find who, and who do I see?

None other than Adrien Clavis himself.

Oh great.

"What are you doing talking to my girlfriend?!" Adrien yells from across the hall in an angry voice.

Luke looks so scared I could've sworn he peed.

"Excuse me??" Luke says in a very small voice, his tone sounding like a 5 year old talking to a creepy old guy in a dark alley.

"Why are you talking to my girlfriend?? Especially after what you said at Homecoming." Adrien yells, almost running toward me out of rage.

"Adrien, he was just trying to apolog-" I say, trying to calm Adrien down, but got cut off by Luke.

"Adrien, I didn't know you and Lond were dati-"

"JUST SHUT UP LUKE." Adrien screamed, so loud it almost deafened me.

"I-I'm s-so s-sorry Lond." Luke said, tears filling his eyes.

I reached my hand up to his shoulder. Or so he thought, as the minute bell rang.

Great. Now I'm gonna be late.

Luke was sporting a smile. His smile was so gorgeous...

Snap out of it London.

I slapped him as hard as I could. And man, did it feel good.

I glanced at Adrien, just to see his expression.

I had to bite back a smile, because when I glanced at Adrien, he looked surprised, happy, proud, and above all, entertained.

I looked back at Luke, and my smile I was sporting, went away faster than it came.

Luke had tears filling his eyes. His beautiful brown eyes. Filled with tears. Because of me.

I suddenly felt guilt overcome my body. I backed up against the lockers and started crying. I don't know why... But the guilt was so overwhelming.

Adrien rushed to my side as the late bell rang.

Awesome. Great. Fantastic.

"Lond! Are you okay? What happened?" Adrien said, his voice sounding as if he had sympathy for me. Why would he feel sympathy?

"I-I'm fine. Really. I just need to go home." I said, now almost sobbing.

"I'll take you." Adrien said as he rubbed my back, which made me feel, surprisingly, a lot better.

"Okay." I said, my voice breaking.
