Leia's P.O.V
I wake up naked, no Luke next to me, I wonder where he went, and why wouldn't he wake me up and tell me where he was going.

I go to the closet and get one of Luke's old hoodies, put it on, I remember this one, It was from...

-------Flashback

I left my songbook at Luke's, not on purpose, and I know he's having friends over tonight so I need to go and get it.

The reason I left it there was because Luke and I were working on a duet for Mr T's party. He said he'd like the two of us to perform, so I just need to go and get the songbook.

~~~~~~~~~

I knock on his door and Theo answers it.

"Hey,, Leia, what's up?" Luke asks as Theo gestures for me to come inside as John and James just stared at me.

"I left something here," I say pointing to the book on the coffee table. He hands it to me and looks me up and down, I feel kind of uncomfortable.

"Leia. aren't you cold?" He asks

"Nah, I'm fine. See ya," I'm about to walk in the door when he says...

"Wait," I turn to see him take off his hoodie "Take it, and keep it." I nod, trying not to smile like an idiot.

--------------End of flashback

Today is quite a chilly day so I'm going to wear it to the studio. It's so amazing that one item can mean so much to someone.

I get in the shower but before I do I see a note on my makeup bag it says.

'Band duties, Wish I could be there with you. See you at the studio, Luke'

I smile at that note. I wish he was here too.

Luke's P.O.V

I arrive at the studio early because there were band rehearsals, I thought they were cancelled but turns out they weren't.

John and I are going to get some water.

"John, I need some advice."

"I'm all yours." He says gesturing me to sit next to him as he sits down too.

I accept.

"I'm having a really hard time getting over my mother's death."

Leia's P.O.V

I walk into the studio, I wore no makeup today, I didn't really feel like making an effort. I'm wearing Luke's hoodie, the one that means everything to me and leggings and my hair is in a high bun.

I'm walking and I hear Luke and someone else talking.

"I only try to act okay in front of Leia, Leia's not here yet."

What is he hiding? Is the pain eating me up inside? Did Luke really love runs through my brain? So, I run.

Luke's P.O.V

"So what's your advice John, I really need it."

"Don't lose Leia, Keep her close," John says

"I know."

"And I have a question for you Luke."

"What is it?" He says confused

"Why don't you want Leia to know how your feeling? she's your girlfriend after all." He says,

"The last thing I want her to think is that I'm weak."

Leia's P.O.V

The question keeps running through my mind over and over again...Does Luke really like me or did he ever? What is he hiding from me? After last night I thought he'd rely on me more but I guess it's caused him to turn away from me.

I start singing a song to get my mind off it. I sing you see through me. The lyrics suit how i feel so well.

A tear rolls down my cheek halfway through

Luke's P.O.V

John's convinced me, I should tell Leia how I really feel.

I walk in the rose room, to see her performing you see through me, She's wearing no makeup. She's so beautiful, like an angel to admire. She's wearing the hoodie that I gave her, I can't believe she still has it.

-----------Flashback

Leia just ran out of the house, I feel happy about what I just did, And for some reason, I feel all good inside, but I'll just ignore those feelings.

"Dude, why'd you do that?" James asks

"Do what?"

"Give Leia your favourite hoodie," John says to which I shrug.

"She looked cold to me," I say

"You like her," Says James

"Never," I say defensively

"Whatever the hoodie was getting old and I wanted to get rid of it,"

-------------Flashback over

Little did I know I did like her, I just ignored those feelings, and when I met Maggie I thought she was the one but she wasn't, I never knew I had feelings for Leia.

As Leia finishes her performance I walk up to the stage.

"That was amazing," I say

"Thanks," She says, not even giving me a smile

"What's wrong,"

"What are you hiding from me?"

"What do you mean?"

"Leia's not here yet, you were talking to John about me," I sigh, why does she always have to overreact

"Leia, I was telling John about how I'm not over my mother's death,"

"Ohh," She says

"Why do you always have to overreact,"

"Firstly I told you why last night and why do you always make me feel like where on rock bottom,"  She says

"Because you always make this relationship hard,  You have to be jealous of every girl I talk to, You know I used to be able to do a lot of things till you were my girlfriend, you're killing my spirit," She stands there as a tear falls out of her eye

"I gotta go," She says

"Where are you going to go?"

"I don't know," She says running out

"I win, you leave, Bye,"

She comes back

"Here's your hoodie you jerk," She says throwing it at me

"You'll be cold it's raining," I say but she's already gone, That was our first fight ever, what am I supposed to do now?
