Crash || Luke Hemmings

2. never okay

*Luna's POV*

Luke Hemmings.

All of these memories flashed right before my eyes and suddenly I was feeling very nostalgic.

I hadn't seen him in two years which was weird considering we had spent almost every moment from age thirteen to eighteen together. We had gone to the same high school, right here in Los Angeles. He was born in Australia, which is why he had such a weird accent and moved here when he was thirteen with his mother and his three best friends. I remember meeting him for the first time in the hallway after he dropped all of his books and when he said thanks with his strong Australian accent, I immediately busted out in laughter. I'm surprised he even wanted to be my friend after I made fun of him, but he did.

I hung out with his three other friends as well, but Luke and I had a bond that I didn't have with the rest of the guys and I'm not quite sure why. Maybe it was because I met him first, or maybe it was his sarcastic, refreshing yet kind personality, or maybe it was his bright blue eyes that I felt could read my mind.

We were best friends. It was like we were made to be best friends and even if we didn't want to be, we always would be. Until we both ruined it all.

Even though Savanna had been my best friend since kindergarten, she still knew that Luke and I had a different kind of bond. She didn't mind either, she was one of the most popular girls in my high school and captain of the cheerleading squad. She had plenty of friends whereas I had a lot of friends but people weren't constantly surrounding me to hang out. She didn't seem to mind when Luke and I went on our little adventures. She knew how we were. Everyone did.

"Do you like them, honey?" I was snapped out of my thoughts just as I always was anymore and I looked over at Stephen for the first time since they began playing. I smiled at him brightly once again knowing how much work he put into this. I didn't want to dissapoint him and tell him that I couldn't have this band playing at my wedding. Plus, they actually sounded really good. It looks like they've improved since those senior year practices in my basement.

"Yeah, they sound great! I can't believe you found them on Youtube!" I gave him a side hug and watched as the boys finished playing their song.

"We're going to take a short break and then we'll come back up and play another song!" Luke shouted into the microphone and they all began putting their instruments down. As I saw all of their bright smiles and faces, I began to miss them all so much but I knew things weren't the same. They all walked off the stage and began making their way over towards Stephen.

"Hey man! How'd you like it? Did we sound alright?" I heard Ashton's cheerful and sweet voice shout from a distance away. I began smiling just at the thought of his optimistic personality and how much I missed his contagious laugh.

"Alright? You guys sounded great! Don't sell yourself short!" Stephen told them and patted Ashton on the back as he reached us both. I saw Luke trailing in the back and I watched him as he made his way towards us. Ashton, Calum, and Michael's mouths were all open wide as they saw me and as Luke looked up from the ground, we made eye contact. I don't think he realized it was me at first but suddenly he stopped moving, his eyes got slighly bigger, and his hands began to fidget, something he always did when he was nervous.

"Moona? Is that you?" I smiled to myself as I heard his deep voice call me my old nickname. He thought he was so clever for calling me that since Luna was another word for the moon.

"You guys know each other?" Stephen asked curiously, probably wondering why I didn't tell him earlier that I knew the band. I'm not quite sure why I didn't tell him either, it's not like I had anything to hide.

"No, not really." Luke remarked in a harsh tone and my stomach sank by his words.

"Yes, we do. We just haven't seen Lune in a couple years." Michael answered sweetly, trying to cover up for Luke's rude remark.

"Yeah, we haven't seen Luna in two years. It was all kind of sudden." Luke answered stressing when he said Luna because in high school I hated being called Luna. I always thought the name was kind of nerdy.

"Yeah, I miss you all." The quiet voice that spoke up was mine. I didn't say it to anyone in particular as I stared at the ground. When I looked up, I saw Luke's face turn into a scowl and he was about to open his mouth when Calum interrupted him.

"Yeah, maybe we could all catch up sometime soon." I nodded slowly and gave him a thankful look. Stephen looked pretty confused as he grabbed my hand and squeezed it.

"So, what do you think Luna? Want these guys to play at our wedding? I was thinking they should play at the rehearsal dinner too but it's up to you sweetheart." He smiled down at me, and I looked around at the boys who used to be my best friends. They all looked really happy except for Luke who looked almost disgusted.

"Yes, I would love to have them play! They sound great, I can't believe this is the same band that played covers in my basement." They all chuckled and nodded their heads, laughing except for Luke again. I can't believe I agreed so quickly, I should have taken some time to think about it. Do I really want my high school best friends to sing at my wedding? Actually, the real question is do they even want to sing at my wedding?

"Well, there you have it! Keep August twenty ninth and thirtith open on your calendars. We'll be in contact with you soon but right now you have a show to play and we have a late dinner reservation to attend! Thank you!" Stephen grabbed my hand and we walked out of the bar hand in hand. He whistled over a taxi cab and opened the door, allowing me to get in first. He shut the door behind me and quickly walked over the other side of the cab and climbed in. He smiled at me and I tried my hardest to give a convincing smile back to him. I turned to look out the window and stared at the bar until we drove away.

*Luke's POV*

"No, I'm not doing it." I stated strongly as we gathered all of our instruments from the car and into the apartment. We had just finished playing our set; it was almost ten o'clock and I couldn't wait to go to bed. It hadn't been a long day, just a long night.

"Yes, Luke, you have to." Michael stated as we walked into our apartment and they all sat down on the couches while I remained standing.

"No, I don't have to do anything. And I sure as hell am not playing music at Luna Webbs' wedding okay!" I shouted and moved my hands drastically as I spoke. I rubbed one of my hands on the back of my neck and then began to klench my fists.

"Why not Luke?" Ashton questioned, sighing loudly afterwards. I swear I saw him roll his eyes and I rolled my eyes as well.

"You know exactly why I can't play at Luna's wedding. You all do!" I stated in a quieter voice, calm but my tone sounded as though I had given up. Which I had.

"That was two years ago, bro." I laughed because they said it as if I didn't know. Trust me, I knew how many years ago it was. I would always know.

"It doesn't matter how long ago it was." I stated before walking out of the living room, into my room and slamming the door. I heard them whispering to each other about how it would be okay and how I would get on board and play the wedding. They were partially right. I would most likely agree to play the wedding, but it would never be okay.
