Over the next few days, I would wake up to good morning messages from Luke. It was easy for him to do so seeing as I lived in England and the time difference between us. All it had taken was for me to pluck up the courage to talk to him, and here we were.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm blaring in my ear. It was hard to open my eyes so I just moved my hand around the bed hoping to find my phone. I hit snooze and rolled over. I didn't want to get out of bed just yet, it was too warm and cosy. I could already see the rain outside and it made me feel miserable. My alarm went off again and I sighed loudly, turning it off and sitting up in bed. I rubbed my eyes and stayed like that for a moment longer before my phone vibrated. Ugh, what now?

"Good morning gorgeous, how did you sleep?" That immediately put me in a good mood, I didn't think he was serious when he said he would do it every morning, but he hasn't missed a day since. I picked up my phone with the biggest smile on my face and started to type.

"Hey you, I slept great thanks, I could have done with some lukey snuggles though..." I pressed send before I even realised what I had put. "Lukey snuggles"? He must think I'm 5 years old.

"I'll be round in say, 10 minutes?" I could almost feel the warmth in my cheeks from blushing.

"You better hurry!" The funny thing is, when I heard a knock at the door, I actually thought it was him. I jumped up and raced to the door, I opened it with a grin.

"Luke!" I laughed happily, before I realised who it was.

"Afraid not sweetie, I just need you to sign for this letter." It was the fricking postman. And I was still in my onesie. I could feel his eyes on me as I signed for whatever it was I had to sign for and handed it back to him. He smirked and winked at me.

"Nice pyjamas." He turned to leave and I could almost taste the vomit in my mouth. I wish Luke was here. I shut the door behind me and slowly made my way back upstairs, grunting and sighing each step I made. It was sad that I was even crushing over Luke so much, and wanting him to be here. We weren't exactly together, and I doubt we ever would be. He was probably saying the same thing to hundreds of girls, but I still felt special and got those butterflies every time he messaged me first. When I got back to my room, I kicked the door shut with my foot and flopped onto the bed. My phone vibrated and I picked it up.

"@luke_brooks: One day I'll meet this girl...@baileybrooksX" attached to it, Luke had made an edit of us together. I had to admit it was the cutest thing anyone had ever done to me. I held my phone close to my chest and couldn't help but smile. Nothing could ruin this mood, not even the hate that I was getting from this tweet. My phone buzzed again.

"@JaiBrooks1: Why didn't my twin tell me he had a girlfriend? @luke_brooks and @baileybrooksX you have some explaining to do!"

I was shocked for two reasons. One, another janoskian had noticed me. And Two, everyone was going to think I was Luke's girlfriend. Surely that was a good thing, right? I scrolled along my timeline to find horrible things being said about me, but the majority of people were tweeting Luke and I saying "#Lailey". I had to admit, it did have quite a ring to it. And I was actually being shipped with Luke! I noticed that the rest of the boys were joining in on it too.

"@BrooksBeau: hey everyone, @luke_brooks has a new girlfriend!"

"@James_Yammouni: @BrooksBeau @luke_brooks dude she's british!"

"@danielsahyounie: @BrooksBeau @JaiBrooks1 @luke_brooks @James_Yammouni wait, who's this chick? @baileybrooksX" I laughed harder than I should have. Oh skip.

I watched as their replies came through, laughing as Beau started to fangirl over what my accent might sound like. Luke started to get protective over me and for a split second, I thought he might like me. But the boys were just messing about, and Luke would probably never like me after all the drama they had caused in the fandom. Goodbye, morning messages. Goodbye, future. Just when I thought all hope was lost, Luke DM'd me and I could smile again.

"Ok, so Beau wants to hear your voice, and I have been dying to ask you for days. Do you wanna Skype?"

I don't think I could have screamed any louder than I did in that moment. I searched my room frantically, looking for my laptop. I quickly replied using my phone.

"I thought you'd never ask."
