On the Road Again || Luke Hemmings

Part Thirty-Seven

"Happy birthday sweetie." Luke whispered in my ear and kissed my cheek. My eyes fluttered open and i rolled over to face him. "Thanks Lewi." I smiled tiredly and gently pulled myself out of Lukes grasp. I sat up and got out of bed. "Baaaabyyyy. Where are you going?" He whined and i giggled. "I have to get ready for school. Im getting my stuff so i can get in the shower." I stated and he groaned. "You're welcome to join me." I said and he sprang up. "Okay!" He cheered and ran into the bathroom.

"You guys are gross." Ashton mumbled into his pillow. "Love youuuuu." I drew out, laughing quietly. "Love you too, happy birthday." He said and looked up at me, smiling. "'Now go get ready for school."

"Got it." I nodded and walked towards the bathroom. "And use protection." He chuckled. I looked over and saw Luke peek his head out of the door. "Dont worry Ash, im one step ahead of you." He laughed and flashed the shiny metallic square at Ashton.

"Luke!" I yelled and he shrugged.

"See i told you, you guys are gross."

I walked into my 3rd period and sat down with my small group of friends. I smiled brightly at them and thanked them when they wished me a happy birthday.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see my friend Bobbie standing behind me with a bunch of balloons in his hands. "Happy birthday Amanda." He said and handed them to me. "Thanks Bolbi." I laughed and put the ballons down beside me.

"Did somebody say birthday?" Mrs. Beane-Fox, my choir teacher, beamed and Mandi nodded eagerly. "It's Amanda's birthday!" She announced, rather loud might i add. "Fuck." I groaned quietly, already feeling my cheeks heat up. "Well then, i think it's time to wish a very special young lady and very happy birthday." Mrs. Beane-Fox smiled and sat down at the piano. She began playing and the choir began singing and i couldnt help but have a big smile tug at my lips.

I walked out of the locker room and into the gym. I looked around and instantly locked eyes with Mike. "AMANDA!" He yelled and ran over to me. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" He shouted and i laughed. "Thanks Mik-fuck." I groaned as i was rudely interrupted by a body crashing into me. "What the hell Cody?" I grumbled, looking over at his stupid, giggly face. "Happy Birthday." He said and hugged me tighter. "Thanks, now will you let go of me?" I giggled and he released me from his embrace. "Thank you." I said, fixing my shirt.

"So what are you guys doing later?" I asked as the three of us went to sit down. "Uhhhh, we have a thing. Right Mike?" Cody asked and Mike nodded his head vigorously. "Yeah a thing." I furrowed my eyebrows at them and they just shrugged at me and sat down in their line. I shook my head and walked over to the side of the gym where my class was and plopped down with a huff.

"Weirdos."

I pulled into my driveway and put my car in park. I grabbed my balloons from the back seat and pulled them out of the car with me. I unlocked the front door and shoved it open. "Guys im home!" I shouted and made my way upstairs. I pushed my door open only to have tons of balloons fall on top of me. I yelped and saw Luke and Ashton laughing in the mess of ballons that cluttered my bedroom.

"Happy Birthday!" They both yelled. "You guys are insane," I laughed and kicked some balloons out of my way. "But thank you."

Luke smiled and walked over to me, pulling me in for a hug. He wrapped his arms tightly around my waist and lifted me off of the floor. I gapsed and locked eyes with him, our faces being only iches apart.
