Lukes pov
We are on our way home, and im so freaking nervous. I haven't talked to Emma in almost 2 months, and she has depression all because of me. When Calum told me, I just sat in my room and cried. Now the jet is landing and my legs are shaking. "Dude, relax," Michael says, putting his hand on my shoulder. I bite my lip. "Michael, I haven't seen her, or talked to her for almost 2 months!" I bury my head in my hands and he sighs. "Luke, we are visiting her. one of us is going to be staying with her, and that's probably gonna be Calum. just don't think about it. And don't mention anything about her depression, I mean it," I nod, and before I know it, the planes landed. "Welcome to Australia!" The lady smiles widely at me and i nod and mumble, "Thanks."

We pull up to Emma's house and i bite my nails. "Luke. Act normal," Calum says, getting out of the car. Ashton and Michael already got out so I follow them to Emma's front door. We knock three times and the door creaks open. When she comes into view, I gasp quietly. She's super pale, and thin as a twig. a baggy sweatshirt hangs off her body, with some black leggings to go with. She runs her hands threw her hair and wraps her arms around Calum first. "I missed you so much," She mumbles, letting go and moving to Ashton. "Hey, I think I called everyday, right?" She smiles lightly and pulls him into a hug. She goes on to Michael and he engulfs her in an embrace. "Holy shiz, Emma, I didn't know I missed you this much," they hug a little more and we're all silent. "Hey Luke," she surprises me by wrapping her tiny frame around mine, and sighing into my chest. I don't hesitate to wrap my arms around her. "Im so sorry, Emma," she just nods and sniffs. She looks up at me and laughs. "We're a mess," I laugh lightly and nod, "Indeed we are," she tells the boys to go inside and i raise my eyebrow. "Luke. Why-" I cut her off. "Emma, im gonna be completely honest, okay?" She nods so I continue. "Okay so basically, I planned breaking up with you before cheating on you, because I knew you would wanna go home after tour, and i didn't know if I wanted something less serious. I wanted to lose all feelings for you, so I thought if I cheated, maybe I would feel sparks for someone else. let me tell you, they never came. The only thing I felt was guilt. I texted the boys right away so they could keep you away from figuring out. I thought we were good, until you found out. I know I should've told you, but I couldn't do it. I know we can't get back together right now, but I'm always here, okay? Forever," I stick my pinky out and she smiles and wraps her pinky around mine. "Forever." We walk inside, and the boys pay no attention to us, so we walk upstairs. We slowly step into her old room, and I look around. On one wall, it's painted black, and covered in albums. In front of the wall sits her bed. I smile as I see the phone cases her dad got her for her birthday. She blows out air and I look at her. She's crying. I pull her into a hug and she starts to sob in my chest. I rub her back, close the door, and sit her on the bed. "Shhh, Emma what's the matter?" She points a shaky finger at a picture. The picture is of Emma, her family, my family, and me, on the beach for the fourth of July. It's a small frame, so I pick it up and bring it back to her. "Remember on this day,  we went on that teacup ride, and you started crying cause the guy next to us sat on your finger?" I whisper, pulling her closer to me. She nods and hiccups. "Luke..." she looks at me and I shift so we're facing each other. "Yes?" I put the frame on her bed stand and she hiccups again. "Can you... kiss me?" I look at her and raise my eyebrows. "What?" She closes her eyes. "I said, can you-" I cut her off by putting my hand on the back of her head and pressing my lips to hers. She puts her hands on my neck and I shiver from the cold. After a minute, we pull away and she breathes out. "Thank you, I'm sorry, I just-" I put my finger to her lips. "Emma, you don't know how long I wanted to do that," she blushes and looks down. "I want you to know, I never felt any sparks with that girl. At all. I promise," she nods, looks down, and mumbles something. "What?" I lift her chin up with my hand and she sits up. "Who was it, Luke?" I look down and when I look back up, she's staring at me with tears drenching her hoodie. "Jessica.." she screws her eyes shut. "But, Jessica's brunette..." I nod. "She died it, and got all this surgery," I cringe and Emma sighs. "Emma please give me another chance," she looks at me and sucks her lips. "Fine," she stretches her arms out. "Emma, please I'm so sorry you don't under- wait did you just say fine?!" I jump up and engulf her in a hug, making her giggle. "Yes, now get off me," I yell a 'Woo!' And jump up and down, making the boys run upstairs. "What is going on up here?!" Ashton yells, followed by all of them crashing into her room. I intertwine our fingers and smile. "Your favorite couple is on the go!" The all cheer and attack us into a group hug. "Guy's you're... squishing.. me.." We all laugh and let go, making Emma sigh loudly. "Phew, you guys were killing me!" "Can we go get taco bell?"

Ik they get back together really easily, but remember they were broken up for like 2 months and I run out of ideas when they're broken up lol. But I think this book will have 60-100 chapters?? If anyone wanna hmu with ending ideas go ahead. Also idk about sequels bc that's kinda a lot of work tbh. Totally not proofread:/ but it's still 1096 words!!<3
