Yours Truly, Luke x

Chapter 8

- Eve's P.O.V -

As I awake in Luke's arms, which were wrapped tightly around me, last nights events replay in my mind. The horrific events that took place. How did Luke grab my dad's wrist so fast? Im glad he did though. I look up at him, peacefully sleeping. Or at least I thought he was, as a smile snuck across his lips.

'I know I'm hot, but there's no need to stare Eve, really?' He grinned. How did he know?

'Sorry Luke' We both giggled.

I remember last night, how I came down to get a drink, but the glass smashed.

'I'm sorry about last night.. waking you up, then crying' Guilt crept over me.

'It's fine, really. I know we only met yesterday, but I'm going to protect you now, I promise. You ever need me, even just for a chat, I'm a call away' His embraced me in his arms, rubbing my back in a comforting circular motion.

'Thank you Luke, it really means a lot. I never thought I'd ever meet you, let alone you make a promise such as this' Which is the truth, I thought he'd only see me as a fan, that I'd never meet him, he'd never know of my existence. Let alone for this to happen. Not thinking that I'd fall for him even more than I already had.

'How about I take you out again on Wednesday? I have to get back to the lads in an hour or so, to start writing songs, but I'll call you later and we can organise something? That is, if you want to. I really enjoyed your company yesterday, and I would quite like to know more about you' He enjoys my company?

'Yeah sure, that'd be great. Maybe get to know more about you as well! I enjoyed last night too, most fun I have had in a while, thank you' Not that I don't already know a lot about Luke anyway.

Luke asks where the bathroom is, so he can get ready before he heads back to the band house that was about a 15 minute walk away. My mum was up a little while before Luke went, he thanked her for letting him stay, to which she said it was her pleasure after what he did last night, basically throwing my dad out and all, and with that Luke Hemmings left my house.

- Luke's P.O.V -

Waking up to Eve in my arms.. it felt normal, like it's meant to happen. Her innocent laugh when she apologised for looking at me, when she thought I was asleep, was the most adorable thing I'd heard in ages. I remember her Dad going to hit her last night, and how fast I'd caught his wrist. I'd done that before. I have a story, a past. That I am not willing to share yet. Mental scars that will stay with me forever.

Deep in thought, I hadn't realised I'd arrived at the house. I fish around in my pocket for the key, finally finding it. I step inside to find Michael, Calum and Ashton all standing ready for me.

'And where have you been young man?' Ashton teases

'You dirty stop out' Calum chuckles.

'WHAT THE FUCK MAAANN WHERE HAVE YOU BEEEEN YOU MISSED OUR POKEMON GAME THAT WE SCHEDULED' A clearly, disappointed Michael, states.

'Sorry guys, I took Eve home and her dad was there, and things kicked off. He nearly hit her, and he was absolutely pissed. Worse than Michael on his 18th, I promise we can reschedule our Pokémon, anytime you want Mikey' I explain quickly.

'He nearly did what?!' both Ashton and Calum gasped, I was as horrified as them.

'Wednesday. We can reschedule to Wednesday' Obviously Pokémon is the most important thing to Michael.

'Sorry Mate, I can't do Wednesday, I'm taking Eve out again' And here comes the teasing.

'Ohhhhh so are we gonna meet this Eve then? Are you falling for her Lucas?'  says Ashton.

'Maybe I'll bring her back on Wednesday after for you to meet her. Yeah I am falling for her a little'

A chorus of 'AWWWWW' spills from Ash and Mikey, while Calum looks at me, nodding as if to say 'We'll talk later' even though I already know what he wants to say.
