Those Three Words - (Beau Brooks / Luke Brooks Fanfiction)

Chapter Thirty Seven - Holy Fuck Nuts

"Where the fuck are you going?" His voice was slightly intimidating, and if he really 'loved' me he shouldn't be trying to make me feel intimidated.

"Like I said, I'm going home Beau. I really don't want to be around you when you're all aggressive and angry." I answered honestly, apart from the 'home' part.

"Aggressive and angry? How am- Wait how are you getting home?"

"I'm with Luke, he offered me a lift." He was already onto me, so why lie about being with Luke?

"Come back." He demanded with a rude tone.

"Why would I come back? I don't like being demanded and I definitely don't like being shouted at." Beau obnoxiously sighed down the speaker.

"Listen Isabella, I'm so sorry for getting angry earlier but I honestly hated seeing you with Luke, it broke my heart in two. I can tell you hated seeing me with Allysa today because as soon as our eyes met, your whole body tensed. I think it would just be easier to make up and try and work things out." I felt sorry for him in a way, when I first confessed about kissing Luke he cried so much and now I can't imagine how he feels seeing us kiss.

"You're right."

"I'm right? What do you mean I'm right?" He sounded as if he had hope.

"It would be easier. But it isn't what I want, at least not now. I'm sorry Beau." I just shot his hope to hell.

"Isabella, you need to just hear me out. I honestly believe we could work and be back to normal in no time, I just need you to believe in us. Please meet me tomorrow for dinner, give me a chance?" He seemed so desperate, but I didn't care about that because he didn't care, he just wanted me back.

"What time and where?" I didn't feel like I would regret the decision to go along with his plans, but it just felt quite unusual.

"Bella Sera, 7:30pm. Thank you so much." Even though I couldn't see him, I could pretty much hear the relief in his voice, so I knew he was smiling.

"Actually, I'll text you tomorrow when to pick me up, Bella Sera sounds good." He most likely forgot I didn't have a car, I really needed one. It was the worst thing having to rely on other people for a ride everywhere.

"See you at 7:30, beautiful." Holy fuck nuts. Why did a simple compliment like 'beautiful' make me feel on top of the world.

As I hung up, I turned to Luke and he didn't look too impressed.

"What was all that about?" He didn't look me in the eyes, his concentration was on the traffic ahead.

"I've decided to meet with Beau tomorrow, I think it's important to try and sort things out with him." I scrolled through my Instagram feed.

"You're taking him back?" He sounded quite annoyed by my decision even though he didn't know jack shit.

"Did I say that? No I didn't. I'm going to try and sort things out with him so that I'm not an emotional wreck every time I see him. I'm going to try and sort things out with him so that I don't feel obtained to ignore him whenever I see him. I'm going to try and sort things out with him Luke, not have sex with him." It felt good standing my ground, it shut Luke up anyway.

"I'm sorry, I just don't think it's a good idea to be going back to him Bels."

"Luke, I'm not going back to him. But if I'm going to be coming round to yours and if I'm still going to be seeing the boys all the time, I don't want an awkward tension to be there between me and Beau."

"But once you're there in a room with him, and it's just the two of you, what do you think is going to happen?"

"I.. Well.. Maybe we-"
