Courtney's POV

So Luke and I decided to take Ana for a walk. We got her ready and started walking. She stopped a few times but then kept walking. She tried to chase after a squirrel but failed.

I laugh and Luke puts his arm around my waist.

"I'm glad we're together. Ana's like our child." He says.

What. That just made me start to think. Does he want an actual child? Or is Ana what he wants. I got confused.

"Y-yeah." I say.

"What's wrong?" Luke asks.

"A C-child?" I ask.

"Yeah. Why?" He asks.

"I-I'm not ready for a child." I say and Luke chuckles.

"That's why I got Ana. I know that you want to wait to have a child and when you're ready we can. For now we have Ana to look after. Let's just be prepared when she's a teenager." He says making me laugh.

"She's gonna be a handful then." I say.

"When you're ready." He smiles.

I thank him and we finish our walk. I let Ana off her leash when we get to my house.

I go see where Ana ran off to and she's laying on the couch.

I then feel my phone ring and I'm getting a call. I answer it.

"Hello?" I ask.

"Hey Courtney, I was wondering if you wanted to come over because we haven't talked for awhile." I hear Calum say.

"Yeah sure sounds like fun." I say.

"Okay see you then." He says hanging up.

"Luke I'm going out to see Calum." I say.

"Okay." He replies.

Luke's POV

"Okay." I say.

"I love you." She smiles kissing me.

"I love you too." I chuckle.

She leaves going to Calum's. I hate when she leaves. I want her to stay by my side forever.

"Hi Luke." I hear Lexi say.

"Hey Lexi." Luke smiles.

"Why do you seem kind of upset?" She asks.

"Eh I'm not but Courtney just left." I tell her.

"Ohh well one of my other friends came over and I have to leave for a bit. Can you just talk with her and like give her some company?" Lexi asks.

"Yeah sure." I smile.

Lexi leaves and her friend comes downstairs. I see her and I face her are eyes connecting.

She was beautiful.

She has grey hair that was dyed. Her eyes are blue and her smile is amazing.

"Hey." She says smiling.

"H-hi." I say back.

She looks at me obviously knowing what I was thinking.

She comes closer.

"Like what ya see?" She asks.

"Uh.." I don't know what to say.

"I know you do." She whispers in my ear.

I stay quiet.

"Aww cat got ya tongue." She says laughing.

Her lips come close to mine and I try to back away but she just follows.

She then connects her lips but mine kissing me. I push her away.

"Stop!" I yell. "I'm engaged with Courtney."

"Who say I can't be on the side. Like the side chick." She says.

"No! My heart belongs to one and only one." I tell her.

She groans in disappointment but I don't care.

"Let's just see." She says taking my wrist and slapping herself in the face with my hand really hard.

After awhile it starts to leave a red Hand mark.

"That's not my hand size." She says. "And there's only one other person here." She laughs.

"You're insane." I say.

All she does is life and comes closer to me.

"I know." She says whispering into my ear.

"Why don't you go to an Insane asylum?" I ask.

"I was." She laughs. "I escaped though."

"This is just weird. Why do you act like this?" I ask.

"You idiot. You think I choose to. I can control myself around Lexi and Courtney, but with you." She pauses. "You're like a spell that makes me go insane."

"Because you are insane." I say.

"Aww why are you being so nasty." She says.

Soon later Lexi comes home.

The door opens and I look over seeing Lexi walk in. The girl starts pretending to cry and holding where the hand mark is.

"Bella what's wrong?" Lexi asks.

"H-he hit me and told me to shut up when I was trying to talk to him." She says.

Lexi looks at me anger in her eyes.

"Why would you do that?" She asks.

"I-I didn't." I say.

"Yes you did." Bella says.

"You can't prove anything because I didn't hit her." I say.

"Okay fine give me your hand." She says.

I give her my hand and it lines up with the hit mark on her face.

"YOU DID." Lexi yells.

"No see I can explai-" I get cut off.

"If you treat Courtney like this I will destroy you. If you ever hit her I will kill you." She says.

"I'm going to warn Courtney and tell her you hit Bella." She says.

"But I didn't." I say.

"It really hurt." Bella says.

Lexi groans looking at me.

She looks back at Bella hugging her.

Bella looks at me smirking and winking at me. I look at her with an angry face.

I hope Courtney will let me explain.
