Right after that day things between Luke and I seemed to go downhill. He seemed distant and was always avoiding me, whenever I tried to talk to him he would make up some lame excuse to get away from me and he never answered my texts or calls.
His appearance also seemed to be going down, his hair was now disheveled, there were bags under his eyes making it seem like he hadn't slept in days, and he often came to school looking like he was recovering from a bad hangover.
There were rumors going around that he was hooking up with this girl from the cheer squad, quite honestly, she was what you'd call a slut, but I tried not to listen to those rumours, thinking it couldn't be true. That was until one day I saw them having a full on makeout session in the hallways of the school, no one else seemed to care exept me.
It hurt. It hurt bad. I ran as fast as I could to the restroom trying to hold back the tears, after quite a few deep breaths and a pep talk to myself I was able to pull myself together again. It was that day that I decided I was fed up with his attitude.
That afternoon I went to that park I knew he always hung out in when he was trying to get away from his house. I wasn't surprised to find him there, pacing back and forth around the far corner of the park while talking on the phone. I stood behind him, willing to wait for him to finish his call, but I definitely wasn't expecting to hear what I heard.
"Yeah man she's great"
"No Michael, I do not like her"
"Yes I'm sure"
"Dammit get it through your head Michael! Nothing will ever happen between Hailey and I, I don't like her that way"
Ouch.
"Well that's nice to know" I said, my voice cracking as tears threatened to spill from my eyes.
He turned around, almost looking scared for a second before his emotionless mask returned to his face.
"What are you doing here"
"Really Luke? You've been avoiding me for weeks and you're acting like such an asshole right now, what is wrong with you?"
"Nothing's wrong, I just didn't feel like talking to you"
"You don't mean that"
"Well it's the truth"
"You know what? Fuck you Luke, you're an asshole. I hate you!"
His emotionless facade fell instantly, his face filling up with sadness.
"What?"
"I fucking hate you"
"Why?" He whispered
"Because...because you made me fall in love with you when clearly you don't feel the same way. I'm completely head over heels for you you asshole! But I guess it doesn't matter since you really don't seem to care"
"Not feel the same way? Hailey I am so in love with you, I love you so much that it fucking hurts! This, all of this was just a desperate attempt to forget about you and move on, because it's impossible for us to be together"
"And why is that?"
"Because I don't want to hurt you" he said in a fragile voice, his eyes welling up with tears as well "I am a fuck up, Hailey, even my parents hate me, I'm such a fuck up I always ruin everything and I know that if I date you I'll find a way to ruin that and you'll end up hurt and I can't let that happen, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I hurt you"
"Luke" I said getting closer to him and grabbing his tear stained face in my hands "you are not a fuck up, you are an amazing human being and anyone would be lucky to have you in their lives, I love you, and i am willing to get hurt if it means that I can be with you" he looked into my eyes with such a vulnerable look to them, he looked broken, beaten up by all of the events that had gone down in his life, and i was willing to do anything I could to fix him.
I slowly leaned in, closing my eyes and feeling his breath hitch as my lips came in contact with his.
My lips moved against his trying to transmit every ounce of love and passion I had through them. He kissed back with just as much passion, his hands moving to my waist and pulling me closer against him. We pulled away still keeping our faces close to each other.
"I love you, Luke Hemmings"
"And I love you, Hailey Jackson"
