Leanne

Todays the day. I am going to see Luke again. Since the day he called me last month we barely spoke. We texted to confirm the travel details.

I am on a semester break from school so I came to England. I will spend a week here being a tourist.

Luke and the boys have been writing and recording, here in London, for the past couple months. Their dream is finally coming true.

I don't know how I should feel about this. Breaking up with Luke was the hardest thing I have ever done. I didn't want him to feel traped while he was away. I didn't want us to go on with a long distance relationship then getting more heart broken then I was 3 months ago.

When he called me I couldn't contain my shock.  I thought he would've moved on by now. London is full of all these beautiful girls with adorable accents. I could never compare to that.

Anyone with a right mind would deny Lukes offer. Why would you make a deal with your ex to see him once a month?  We are supposed to be moving on.

I've tried but I can't.

Luke sent me the address of where they are staying at. I had to check to make sure it was right as I stood in front of a large door. This is embarrassing enough, I would rather it not be the wrong house.

After I knocked on the door I heard a voice that sounded like Michaels scream that someone's at the door.

My nerves were at their highest. What if this is all a mistake?  Of course I miss him. We dated for a really long time and we were close friends before that.  We can't just disappear from each others lives. But our feelings can easily get stuck in the way.

"Leanne!" Calum yelled and pulled me into a hug.

"Hey Calum! How are you?" I pulled away from my childhood friend.

"I'm great.  Oh, Luke is upstairs with Ellis. I'll get him."

Ellis. Crap. He has a girlfriend.  I knew it!  This was a mistake.  I'm gonna make a fool of myself.

How is Luke gonna introduce me to her? " Ellis this is my ex girlfriend. We were very close and serious so we decided to see each other even after we broke up. I hope you don't mind."

This can't happen.

I look up as I hear feet coming down the stairs.

Luke smiles as we make eye contact. How I've missed that smile. It still makes my stomach do flops.

I look past him and see a person with medium length dark hair covering their face as they look down scratch their leg. They look up and I see their face.

Ellis. Ellis is wearing a bright pink shirt with a random saying on it. Ellis is wearing the tightest jeans I have ever seen anyone wear.

Ellis has facial hair surrounding his jaw and mouth making him look his age.

"Leanne!  You came!" Luke says as he ran to me. He wraps his broad arms around me in a hug. My senses are on overload. I haven't felt his body against mine in over 3 months. I've missed this. I've missed him.

He pulls me tighter and I bury my head in the crook of his neck. It feels like before. Before we had to let eachother go and I was actually happy.

We slowly let eachother go and step away.
