Jealous. L.H

chapter 26

"Cmon, Emma, you have to leave sometime," Ashton rubs my back and i shake my head. "Not till Like wakes up," I grip Lukes cold hand and sniffle. "Emma... we're sad too, but this isn't healthy," Calum says. Calum woke up 3 days ago, but Luke is still unconscious. "It's wasn't even him driving! He was in the back seat!" I cry, not even caring if they're listening. "You can't sit here all day everyday without eating, or drinking, or doing anything!" Michael yells, throwing his hands up. "Im sorry, okay? What if Bryanna was in the hospital, Ash? Or what if Taylor was in the hospital, Michael? What if Chrissy was in the hospital, Calum? Huh? What would you do then? Would you leave them here in a coma? No," Calum and Chrissy weren't dating, but they both 'loved' eachother apparently. They become silent and I nod. "Excatly, now please leave," they nod back and walk out of the room. I sigh and face Luke. "Please.. wake up."

Im about to fall asleep, when Luke starts coughing. I click the nurse button and squeeze his hand. "Cmon, Luke, im right here," My eyes are blurred by tears, and a Nurse walks in. Luke sits up and looks at me, and then the nurse. "Had a nice rest, Mr. Hemmings?" She laughs lightly and I glare at her. How is she joking at a time like this. "Y-Yeah, sure, I guess.. what happened?" I widen my eyes. Did he lose his memory? No. "Well, you, Calum Hood, Ashton Irwin, and Michael Clifford were all in a car crash. Do those names ring a bell?" Luke smirks, "Well, there's no bell to be rung, but yeah, they're my best friends. We are in a band and we just finished tour," the nurse points at me,  "Who is this young lady, then?" Luke smiles at me, but frowns. "This is my girlfriend, Emma Jane Carter. She's on tour with us, and we are actually in a fight right now..." the nurse nods. "Well, she never left your side this whole time," Luke widens his eyes. "Seriously Emma? How did you eat?" I shrugged. "I didnt," he shakes his head. "You're eating so much when we get home. I smile, "good. I'm starving."

The boys were beyond relieved to see Luke. Calum even started crying. I smile and Ashton calls me over to the kitchen. "Hey... are you guys good now?" I frown. "I don't know, Ash. I wanna be, but I'm leaving tomorrow!" His eyes widen. "What?! Why?!" I explain to him and he nods. "Well, I'm gonna miss you bunches," he kisses my forehead and I decide to tell the other boys about me leaving. They hug me, and we all settle down to watch Netflix.

I wake up on the couch, next to the boys, who are up and playing video games. "What are you guys doing up?" I sit up and brush my fingers through my hair. "We are taking you to the airport, silly!" Ashton yells, making me laugh. Luke stays quiet, while the other boys make small talk. "Well I've packed already, so let's go!"

When we get there, everyone gets quiet. I go in a row to say my goodbyes to the boys. First is Michael. "Im gonna miss my crazy haired dude," I sniffle and laugh. He ruffles my hair, "I'll miss you a littleee bit, kiddo," I hug him one more time and move to Calum. "I'll miss you most, mall boy," We are both crying so I squeeze him in a hug. "Omg I'm gonna miss you so much," he smiles and I go to Ashton. I go into his arms and hug him. "You're my literal brother, ugh I'm gonna miss you," he wipes under his eyes. "Emma, I will hunt you down if you don't call everyday!" He giggles and pulls me in for another hug. Now, Luke. When I walk over to him, he doesn't smile, or say anything. All he says is, "W-We are breaking up," he rubs his arm. "What?! Why? Was it me?" I instantly regret everything and he sighs. "Emma, I don't..." he starts but stops and rubs his eyes. "You don't what, Luke?" I lift my bag up and he looks at me. "I don't want you to contact me anymore," I bite my lip and nod. "Thank you Luke, for everything," but when I look up, he's already gone.

I'm getting off the plane, and im constantly wondering. Was it me? But all of my thoughts are pushed aside when I see my suitcase rolling around the baggage claim. I sigh and go outside, dragging my suitcase behind me. I decide to get an Uber so I don't have to walk. When I see my house, I gasp, considering I haven't seen it in so long. I'm about to run inside and surprise my parents when I remember. I don't have parents anymore. They're gone. I roll my suitcase inside and set it down. I go to my room and sit on the bed, thinking.

I decide to go on a walk, after showering and cleaning up. I'm walking around and i see her. "Lia?" She looks at me and smiles. "Emma! Hey!" She runs towards me and hugs me. "How are you?" She asks me, and slings her purse around her arm. "Been better.." she frowns. She's probably thinking I'm sad about her sister, Angie. Wow, it's been 4 years.

*flashback*
It was the last day of 8th grade, and i just got in a huge fight with my best friend, Angie. We fought over some stupid guy, and she said she hated me. This happens a lot, so I knew we would be best friends again before next week. I go downstairs and see my mom telling Lia, Angie's older sister, goodbye, and closing our front door. "What did Lia want?" I say, sitting down at the chair. My mom looks at me and a few tears roll down her cheeks. "Angie drowned on Monday, sweetheart," she grabs my hand and i freeze. "You're joking," I laugh nervously and slap her hand playfully. "No honey, thats why Lia just came here. I'm so sorry," I screech the chair back. "No! She's not dead!" Here I was, alive, breathing, and Angies somewhere, dead, no pulse. It was four whole days that I thought you hated me, and you were just ignoring me. But you were dead, alone, afraid. "She was on the swim team! The best one!" I sob, backing to my wall. "Honey...swimmers can drown. Some unexpected storm appeared. Apparently she was getting drunk with illegal alcohol and she was with these boys," I scream in frustration. "Mom! She hated me! She died hating me!" I put my head in my hands. "Emma.. please," I shake my head. "Im going to the Hemmings," I run out the door and run a few blocks, to Lukes house. He opens the door in his PJS. "Emma? Did you hear about Angie?" He was crying too. I hug him, and Liz walks towards us. "Honey, shhh, it'll be alright," she pulls us into a group hug and we just sit there, in the rain, crying. Maybe this was how it was supposed to be.
*end of flashback*

"What do you mean?" Lia says, referring to my response. "Well Luke and I broke up, I have nobody to go to, it kinda sucks," I shrug and she gasps, "You dated Luke? Like Luke Hemmings? Just go home to your parents! They don't work that much do they?" I frown, "Lia... My mom died in a car crash, and my dad died from cancer. Did you not know?" Lia gasps. "Omg fml girl, are you serious? I'm so sorry!" Lia had a problem of being insensitive at times, but i still think of her as a big sister. "Well you can stay with my boyfriends friend, kian!" I raise my eyebrow at her. "Would that be alright? I've already texted him and gave him your number so you're all good to go!" She smiles at me and i groan. Good thing I didn't unpack. I thank her and head home. My phone dings and it's an unknown number, that I change to 'Kian' right away.
Kian: hey! Sorry if this is weird but I'm outside your house to take you to my place, and we can have a proper introduction:). I text an okay back and walk outside. He's leaning against his car and he waves at me. "Hey! I'm Kian Lawley, nice to meet you!" I shake his hand. "Emma Carter," His eyes widen. "Dude, no way! Your music is sickkk!" He opens the passenger door and i get in. "Well Lia told me your story. Sorry to hear," he turns onto a road with huge houses. "Im a YouTuber, and i live with a group a guys. We call ourselves o2l. It's pretty cool, actually," he smiles at me and i smile back. This might be kinda fun.
