All of my 5sos work

Exposed

With a sigh of exhaustion I knocked on the door, shivering as I held all of my things close to my chest hoping for some warmth. The one time I decided to walk to Y/f/n's as the sun was out and it was forecast to be hot for the rest of the day it so happens to change whilst I'm out and turn into a thunder storm. Resulting in me who didn't pack anything warm to become drenched in the space of thirty minutes.

The door creaked open and I was greeted with a loud laugh. Looking up I saw her laughing in her warm clothing and walked on in embracing the warmth that flowed through me. "Let me guess, your parents at work?" All I did was nod as I tried to control my shivers and then Liz came out and noticed me, a smile turning into a look of shock.

"Y/n! Oh we need to get you into some warm dry clothes, here Y/f/n will get you something. I'll make you a hot drink, the usual?" Liz was like a second mum to me, always has been ever since I was young.

"Thanks Liz." I spoke up through chattering teeth as Y/f/n took my stuff and lugged it up the stairs as we went towards her room.

As we went up the stairs I couldn't help but look over at his door, one I always found myself knocking in the early hours of the morning, but not anymore. Tearing my eyes away I went into her room and waited for something that didn't cling to my flesh. She passed me my usual clothes whenever I stayed round and went to the bathroom to get changed, as I locked the door my heart beat intensified as I thought back to every time he would come out and wink to me as he stood in a towel around his hips.

Closing my eyes and taking a few deep breaths I shut all those times out of my mind, knowing he's thousands of miles away, he isn't here, not anymore. Walking back to Y/f/n's room seemed harder, as if my feet wouldn't work as if I were in some dream state in which running is an impossible task. As I went inside and closed the door the rain hitting her window was louder with the rumble of thunder in the distance. 

For a few hours we laughed about the usual things, looking at old photos or YouTube videos before settling down to watch a film. As always Y/f/n was asleep within the first hour of the film and by the time it had finished I picked up my phone to see it was 2am, letting out a sigh I stopped the film, turned her TV off before going to get a glass of water.

Silently I went downstairs, my stealthy ways being something he taught me as I would sneak into his room for so long whilst Y/f/n slept. Going into the dark kitchen I quietly grabbed a glass from the cabinet, passing by Luke waving as I got to the sink to pour myself some water. After leaving the tap for a minute I abruptly stopped, slowly turning around to see him just as dumbfounded as I was.

Moving in front of him I kept my distance, my mouth hanging open as he stood up. "I didn't know you'd be here." He stated, he sounded rough and his top was practically see through from the rain, outlining the body I missed. 

"I didn't even know you were in the country." I retorted, crossing my arms and trying to ignore him. The feeling of being used washed over me, I felt like the prized fool, thinking after all this time he would still want to be with me. 

Walking towards the sink I let the silence settle in as I looked at my appearance in the reflection of the glass, focusing on all the droplets of rain as opposed to my sad expression or Luke's head hanging low in the background. As I turned the tap back on my focus shifted and barely noticed a pair of arms wrap around my waist, the familiar smell of his cologne mixed with the fresh rain. I desperately wanted to lean back into him, embrace him after all this time a part, he was like a magnet, drawing me back into him. "No Luke." I stated removing myself from his arms and picking up my glass which he quickly removed and placed down, out of my reach with him blocking it. 

"Hear me out Y/n?" He pleaded and letting out a sigh, I nodded. We sat opposite each other on the table, keeping my distance but still being able to see his distinct features. He looks more mature, his hair is a bit longer, his lip ring is gone, he has stubble forming again but those eyes. His eyes never change especially with that look in them. "So, I was-"

"A rude inconsiderate douchebag who didn't think to tell his friend he was back in the country and at his house?" I suggested with little emotion in my tone, he let out a sigh as he ruffled his hair, causing a small sigh to escape me.

"I was going to say I was an idiot, but that works too." He explained and I nodded. "Did you say friend?" His tone adjusted as I fidgeted in my seat, concentrating on my nails that I had picked at beforehand, anything to avoid eye contact with him. 

"Yeah." I mumbled, still avoiding his gaze. His chair scraped across the floorboards as he came and knelt in front of me, placing his hand on my thigh. 

"I don't want us to ever be 'just friends' again, we've been there and it was hell for both of us." He explained and as his hand moved into mine I looked into his eyes, how full of love they were. "Y/n, I still love you and I was afraid you thought I did something whilst I was touring, I mean I haven't seen you in almost a year." I nodded in agreement. 

Various thoughts circled my mind whilst Luke was gone, I often thought about all the beautiful girls he would meet, about groupies or celebrities who adored him. All the while I was at home going to university, living a low key life trying not to get upset about my secret boyfriend who happened to be my best friends brother. "It's been so long Luke, I just assumed you met someone." At this point words struggled to form coherently, and it felt as if my throat was closing over. The look on his face seemed distraught, I wanted to say more but it felt out of place, wrong even to say anything else. 

"How could I find someone else when I know you're here." He spoke up, now standing in front of me, keeping a tight hold of my hand as I remained seated. "It's only ever been you Y/n, I love you." The words that tore me apart inside, I couldn't hold back any longer. 

My hand disconnected from his and I walked off, not being able to say anything. Just as I was about to grab my glass I felt a grip on my hand and spun into his chest, like we used to do on our own. We'd dance around the house for hours on end, laughing the day away. My lips were inches away from his, a sense of nostalgia surfacing between us, I didn't hesitate to embrace his sweet lips. 

The kiss was gentle, it was as if he didn't want to over do it, our first kiss in almost a year. But I yearned for more, wrapping my arms around his neck he placed his on my thighs, lifting me as my legs crossed his waist. Deepening the kiss everything else melted away, nothing but the two of us was important, or so I thought.

"What the actual fuck." Breaking my lips from Luke's and lowering myself Y/f/n stood wide eyed and mouth a gap I remained breathless, looking up to Luke for answers. 

"Hey sis," Luke spoke up scratching the back of his head. "didn't hear you come down." 

"Probably because you were making out with my best friend." She scoffed, Luke had his hand around my waist as I remained silent and ashamed. "How long has this been happening Y/n? Have you just been using me to get close to my brother?" Her tone became upset, less accusing. 

Shaking my head back and forth I looked between her and Luke. "It wasn't like that at all Y/f/n! You will always be my best friend but this wasn't planned or manipulated in that way. Me and Luke just happened a few years back and has sort of been a secret thing that has happened since. I didn't mean to fall for him but," Looking up to Luke I could see that glint in his eyes, the one I saw the first time I kissed him as we stood against his door as he wished me a goodnight. "I love him." I spoke up and saw a smile form on Luke's face. 

"And you?" She motioned to Luke who nodded, not being able to wipe the smile off of his face. 

"Yeah, I love her too." He laughed and we hesitantly looked over to Y/f/n, she seemed to be pondering the idea of us before smiling and walking towards the two of us. She let out a laugh and gave us both a hug, as she pulled away her expression changed and her eyes became wide again. 

"How are you going to tell mum?" My eyes widened as I looked to Luke, completely forgetting Liz. 

"I've known for years kids." Liz walked in wearing her dressing gown with a smirk on her face, my cheeks began to heat up as she laughed. "You think Luke on tour with girls fawning over him and he remained distant from them and the constant phone calls didn't give it away? Not to mention your midnight meet ups." I mentally face palmed reminiscing on Luke's first tour where we phoned each other as often as we could. "I'll admit you weren't so good at it then, but I'm happy for you both." She came over and gave us a kiss on the cheek before heading back to bed. 

"On that awkward note." Luke spoke up and I raised an eyebrow to him. "I bought doughnuts."
