Why Me?

Chapter 12

Luke left at 2 this morning. I decided to try and get some extra sleep. I ended up falling asleep around 5.

-

I woke up and looked at the clock. It was only 8. I sighed and looked at my phone.

Luke: Good morning beautiful <3

I smiled at my phone.

Me: Morning loser <3 :*

Luke: So we have band practice today. U coming? I think Jesy is so she can bring u.

Me: I'd love to come. Just need to come up with an excuse to leave the house.

Luke: Okay :D. See you l8r!

I started a conversation with Jesy.

Me: u going to the boys band practice?

Jesy: Yea. Want me to pick u up?

Me: yes please!

Jesy: okay! be over in a few!

I walked down to the kitchen where my parents were already up and making breakfast.

"Mom, Dad, Jesy's coming to pick me up soon and we're going to go to the store," I said starting to eat.

"Okay sweetie," Mom said at the stove. Dad just sat in his chair reading the newspaper. I finished eating right before the doorbell rang.

"Bye!" I yelled as I walked out the door.

"They already started rehearsing,"Jesy told me as I got in the car.

"Step on it, then!" I said jokingly. We both laughed.

-

"Hey we're taking on the world. I'll take you where you wanna go. Pick you up when you fall to pieces. Let me be the one to save you. Break the plans we had before. Let's be unpredictable. Pick you up if you fall to pieces. Let me be the one to save you. So let's go! Till we've lost control. And we'll stumble through it all. Let's do something new and unpredictable!"

We walked in just as they were finishing their song. We clapped loudly. They all turned to look at us.

"Did you like it?" Luke asked, out of breath.

"Like it? I loved it!" I replied.

"Awesome," Calum said.

"What song should we do next, guys?" Ashton asked.

"Let's let the girls choose," Michael said. Jesy and I walked over to their list of songs and chose one for them to sing.

"I kinda want them to do this one," Jesy whispered to me, pointing to Beside You.

"What about this one?" I asked, pointing to Try Hard.

"Oh you know which one would be good?"

"Which?"

"Wherever You Are."

"Yea, let's have them do that one."

"Did you guys choose yet?" Luke asked walking over to us.

"Yes," I replied. "We want you guys to do Wherever You Are."

"Okay," he said. "You guys can sit right their and we will sing it for you." He smiled his amazing smile at me.

"Okay," I said smiling back.

They started the music.

"For a while we pretended that we'd never have to end it but we knew we'd have to say goodbye."

Luke looked right at me while he sang and played the guitar. Man he looked sexy.

"You were crying at the airport when they finally closed the plane doors. I could barely hold it all inside. Torn in two. And I know I shouldn't tell you but I just can't stop thinking of youuuuuuuuuuuuuu wherever you are."

He looked so cute while he was playing guitar and singing. I couldn't help but smile the whole time.

-

Once band practice was over, I walked over to Luke who met me with a big hug.

"Did you like it?" he asked me.

"You guys are great!" I answered. "Especially you." I added, poking his stomach. He laughed a little.

"I'm not that good," he replied.

"Are you kidding?! You, sir, are amazing with a capital A." I started laughing.

"I can't believe you don't like your laugh," Luke said, putting his guitar in the case.

"I just don't okay," I said, putting my arms around him. "Do you think you could teach me how to play guitar sometime?"

"Of course!"

"Guys, I have to go," Ashton said from the door. "My mom is pissed that I came."

"Bye Ashton!" I said waving.

"Bye!"

"I'm gonna go too," Calum said.

"See ya later," Luke told him.

"See ya."

I looked around to see where Jesy was. She grabbed Michael's hand and pulled him into the closet. I heard the lock click. Nothing 'good' can come from this.

"Why don't you start to teach me how to play now?" I said to Luke.

"You saw them go into the closet, right?" he asked. I giggled my response. He smiled and pulled his guitar back out of the case. "Lets go up to Michael's bedroom since he's not using it." Luke grabbed my hand and lead me upstairs to the bedroom. I sat down on the bed and Luke handed me the guitar. Then he sat down next to me. "So you place your fingers here and strum these strings to get chord d." He said this as he guided my fingers to their right positions. His fingers felt soft on mine. I strummed the chord a couple times and a good sound came out.

He taught me a few more chords. My phone buzzing is what stopped us.

Mom: When are you coming home?

Me: Soon, I think.

Mom: Okay. Just remember to be home by 8

I looked over at the clock. it was already 6 p.m. We had been here almost the whole day.

"Curfew again?" Luke asked, looking over my shoulder at the text message.

"Yea, I guess so."

"Well we've got about two hours so let's make the best of it."

He took the guitar from my hands and put it on the ground. Then he took my face in his hands and brushed his soft lips on mine. I gently grabbed his bottom lips with my teeth and he moaned. I let his tongue enter my mouth. His hands had since moved from my head and were now pulling me onto his lap. They slowly creeped up my shirt while my hands slowly creeped up his. We stopped before we got any farther.

"Your parents would probably hate me more than they do now if I made you loose your virginity," Luke said. I rested my head on his forehead.

"It would be totally worth it," I said going in for another kiss.

I wish I could stay in his arms forever.
