Chapter 15

Luke 💕

"And I like you."

No.

"W...what?"

"I like you, Luke."

What the fuck was he going on about now? I wanted to punch him and kiss him at the same time. How was it possible for him? How was it physically possible? "You can't... you're dating my brother."

He paused, thinking whilst I took another drag. "That's something that can easily be ended... I just... don't you like me back?"

Now my thoughts had become a whirlwind and I had no idea what was happening. I was either in a very vivid dream, or Calum fucking Hood was actually confessing to me. "I can't like you back if you're dating my brother."

"Doesn't me dating your brother make you want me more?"

I stared into his eyes, those gorgeous dark circles laced with long lashes. Did I dare to tell him the truth? What would happen? What if he was just pretending right now, playing a prank? I had to stay calm and keep my cool. "I respect Jack."

"What about all those kisses? Did they mean nothing to you?"

"You seem to forget quite often the bad things you used to do to me. You think it's okay to tell me you like me, then torment me the next day. It's wrong to mess with people's feelings, Calum, and once you know that you'll see a completely different world in front of you. Besides, I'm not worth your time – you should stop thinking about me."

He took the cigarette out of my fingers and threw it into a bush, then grabbed my neck and forced his lips onto mine... wait what?!

"What-"

"Shut up, and let me kiss you."

He didn't show any signs of moving away so I stopped struggling and let myself indulge. I put my arms around his neck and our lips moved in sync, tongues clashing like swords between soldiers. He leant closer so our chests were touching, and I couldn't help but let out a small moan when his hand went up my shirt.

After a few minutes, he pulled away, leaving me to furrow my eyebrows in confusion. Why did he stop?

"Hey, you're not having an asthma attack this time," he chuckled as our eyes met. I shrugged.

"It's cause I'm not around loads of people. Everything's easier when I'm alone."

"Don't say that... everyone needs someone by their side. Say, can I be that person from now on?"

I fidgeted around for a few moments, not looking him in the eye. Thanks to me, the mood had been lost. I sighed, and turned with the intention to start walking home. "I can't let you. I'm sorry."

Before he could say another word, I disappeared down the pavement.

There was no way I'd be able to let him in so soon, especially after all those years of torment. He couldn't just have whatever he wanted, and I had to show him that or else I'd probably end up getting hurt again when he tossed me aside later on.

I couldn't bring myself to go home, not after the events of that evening – so I headed to the river that ran through the city and sat on a bridge, gazing down at the lights illuminating the water and the boats parked on the surface bobbing up and down with the waves. It was cold, and I wasn't wearing much, but sitting there gave me more comfort than any human could. Strange, huh?
