Caught between Lovers

Chapter 7

-Louis's POV

Luke wasn't lying when he said that this tree was in a secret part of the park, I've lived in Doncaster my whole life and I've never known that this area of the park existed. The tree in question was covering a lush meadow of wild flowers, I laid down in them and Luke sat by my side against the tree. It felt perfect and I never wanted this moment to end. I almost feel asleep in the flowers when,

GGGRRRUUUMMMBBBLLLEEE!!!!

The sound of my stomach grumbling snapped me awake. In that moment I realized that I had nothing to eat for lunch. I was going to get lunch from the cafeteria but since I decided to go to the park with Luke that was no longer an option. I had totally forgotten that Luke was with me until I heard his stomach give out a similar growl.

"I guess we should've brought some food." I said looking up at Luke.

"No need, I got this." He said getting up.

As I watched him strand up I wondered what he was up to, he grabbed a branch and stared climbing up the tree. I watched as he easily climbed the tall tree, it probably was because of his big muscle that climbing the tree was easy for him. Soon he was out of sight and I wondered how far up the tree he had gone. The next thing I see is two large apples falling out of the tree.

"Here you go." Luke said floating down from the tree.

I looked cautiously at him, unsure if I should trust him and eat this wild apple.

"Don't worry it's safe to eat, I've tested them." He said taking a bite of the red fruit,

I trusted him and bit into mine. It was amazing. The apple was sweeter and juicer than any apple I've eaten before. I enjoyed every single bite of the red fruit. By the time I was finished, my stomach was full and I wanted to take a nice, long nap in Luke's arms. Speaking of which I turned around to see Luke fiddling with some wildflowers and some string.

"What are you doing?" I asked as I laid down.

"You'll see, I've seen Harry and Marcel do this a million times, I'm just not as good as them." He said pulling the flowers together.

"Give me a moment." He said as he made the last stretch.

Then he held out his hands and reveled a shoddy made flower crown. I didn't care that it looked like crap, I still loved it.

"Do you mind?" He asked holding out the crown.

 "Not at all." I said holding out my head.

Luke gently put the crown on my head and pulled out his phone to take a picture of it. Once he got it he showed me.

"Oh my god, I look so good." I said trying not to sound self-absorbed.

"You look adorable babe." Luke informed me.

Wait... did he just call me babe? It hit me then that Luke had something for me too. I felt good enough having Harry's affection but Luke now too. Hopefully Marcel isn't feeling the same way. I couldn't handle dealing with all 3 of them liking me.

"When did the pet names start?" I asked intriguingly.

"Well I just thought that well I..." He said almost starting to stutter like Harry.

"It's ok, I think your cute when you stutter." I told him adjusting my crown.

"I wasn't stuttering, I don't stutter, I just occasionally take brakes in my sentences." He said giving me a dark look.

"Whatever Mr. tough guy." I said lying back down in the flowers.

"Really, you want to play the name calling game?" He said grabbing my arms and rolling on top of me.

I didn't know what to say, I was caught off guard when Luke rolled onto me. We spent a few minutes looking in each others eyes. His emerald eyes looking deep inside me. I could tell that our lips were getting closer and closer to each other we were about to kiss when,

BBBEEEEEEPPP!!!

I heard my watch go off, signaling the end of lunch and the end of my time with Luke,

:Oh, we should probably get back to school." I informed him.

Looking upset he replied with a simple "Yeah" and lead me back to his bike and we headed back to the school.
