17 and Lost {Luke Hemmings}

Chapter 13

Tori’s P.O.V

We had been in Australia for nearly 2 weeks now and my relationship with Luke has never been better. We got past the whole Ainsley thing and were just enjoying each other. I had been talking to the girl from the meet and greet, Miranda, a lot these past two weeks and we decided to meet up today, with the rest of the boys and Mel. She had her 16th birthday about a week ago, where I found out her soft spot for Mikey. It was my mission to set them up. With Luke’s help of course.

‘Tori come on we want to go out.’ Luke whined dragging me out of the bed. ‘But the bed has just accepted me as one of their own. If I leave now, they might not trust me again.’ I murmured. ‘All right we’ll just have to do it the hard way.’ Luke smirked. He lifted me off the bed and flung me over his shoulder, like I was a pillow, and ran into the bathroom. ‘Luke you wouldn’t dare.’ I said, glaring at his back. I could hear him chuckle as he turned on the shower and flung me in. The freezing water soaked through my pajamas, leaving me freezing cold.

I walked out of the bathroom about an hour later wearing a maroon Ramones top tucked into a pair of lace white shorts and a white pair of caged platform sandals. My hair was done in a long fishtail braid and I had on natural make-up. I grabbed my pair of John Lennon styled sunglasses and my phone before walking into the lounge area. ‘How long does it take you to get ready.’ Michael groaned from the couch. ‘Oi blame Luke. He’s the one that threw me in the freezing shower.’ I pouted. Everyone started laughing and high-fiving Luke, leaving me pouting. ‘It’s alright babe.’ Luke smiled, wrapping his arms around me.

‘Miranda!’ I squealed running over to the brunette girl. I wrapped her into a huge hug, nearly squeezing the life out of her. She looked gorgeous as always, her long brunette hair it soft curls falling down her back. She was wearing a simple pair of skinny jeans and a loose crop top that showed a little bit of her belly. Sometimes I wonder why those girls were saying all that stuff about her at the meet and greet, but I don’t know if she minds anymore.

We had been walking around Sydney for nearly 2 hours and Michael and Miranda were hitting it off. I could see some sparks flying. Who’s the best match maker ever! ‘It sucks that I won’t be able to see you for a while. We’re going back to England in 2 weeks.’ Michael frowned, looking at the ground. I couldn’t help but smirk at him. I’ve never seen him with a crush and I have to say it was adorable. ‘Oh yeah about that. I’m moving to London with my family. My dad got a job over there.’ Miranda smiled at him. I saw a huge smile come across Mikey’s face as he wrapped her in a huge hug.

‘So do you think that those two will get together?’ I asked Luke. He looked over at Miranda and Michael who were sitting in a booth together, laughing about something. We had split up into couples, except Ashton, and were sitting in booths in a milkbar. Ashton said something about going shopping. He really does miss Jess. ‘Yes he’s smitten already and he’s known her for 3 hours.’ Luke smirked, taking a sip of his cookies and cream milkshake.

Jess’ P.O.V

I was walking around the mall, Fletcher sitting in the stroller, trying to find some new clothes for him. I walked in front of a babies batman shirt and all I could think about was Ashton. It was practically a mini version of his top. I grabbed Fletch’s size and added it to the pile of clothes, sitting on the trolley.

With out looking where I was going, I walked forward only to run into someone. All the things knocked off the side of the pram and Fletch started to cry. ‘Shh baby. Mummy’s here.’ I cooed holding him close to me.

‘Jess?’

I looked up to find the same curly haired blonde boy that I had left a year ago.

‘Ash.’

I didn’t know what to say to him, but the same feelings flooded back. A mixture of happiness and love and hurt flooded through his eyes. ‘I missed you.’ He weakly smiled, showing off his dimples. ‘I missed you too.’ I said, putting Fletcher back down in his pram. ‘Can I hold him?’ Ashton gulped, motioning to the pram. I smiled and picked up my baby, carefully handing him to Ashton. The look on his face the second he saw him was amazing. I couldn’t help but smile at the way the two of the acted around each other.

‘Do you want to get a bite to eat?’ I asked Ashton, hoping that he would say yes. ‘sure. I am a bit hungry.’ He smiled, putting Fletcher back down in the pram. ‘Here let me push him.’ He said grabbing the handles. I smiled walking a long next to him. We walked through the mall until we found McDonalds. We quickly ordered and found a table to sit at.

‘Why did you leave?’ He asked, looking into his eyes. ‘Because I was scared. I was scared that you would leave me when you found out.’ I whispered, playing with my food. ‘Jess.’ He weakly said, grabbing my hands. I looked up into his eyes, trying not to break. ‘I love you Jess. I wouldn’t have left you.’ He smiled, softly kissing my hand. Wait did he just say he loved me? After everything I put him through?

‘So will you come visit tomorrow?’ Ashton asked. ‘Of course. I miss everyone a lot.’ I smiled, giving Ashton a hug. Fire cracked through my veins as I did this and I tried to ignore it as best as I could. ‘Bye buddy. Daddy will see you tomorrow.’ He smiled into the pram, rubbing Fletcher’s stomach. I heard a small giggle coming from the pram and I couldn’t help but smile. ‘I’ll see you tomorrow.’ Ash smiled pulling me into a tight hug. I felt myself nod against his shoulder before he pulled away. There was a smile on his face, that I hadn’t seen in a year. Yes I watched his interviews.

‘Bye Ashton.’

‘Bye Jessica.’

Tori’s P.O.V

I looked over to Michael and Miranda snuggled into each other. ‘Luke look at them.’ I whispered, pointing in their direction. ‘He’s whipped.’ He chuckled, pulling me closer to him. I embraced in his warmth knowing that it might not last long. ‘Tori have you talked to Simon about the anti-bullying campaign you want to start?’ Mel asked catching everyone’s attention. ‘No but I am talking to him tomorrow. We’re having a video meeting.’ I smiled at everyone.

The door slammed shut and a giddy looking Ashton skipped through the house. ‘Woah what’s got you so happy mate?’ Calum laughed looking up at Ashton. ‘I have just had the best day in all of best days.’ He cheered wrapping each of us in huge hugs. I haven’t seen him this happy in a long time. ‘You sound like you did the last time you talked to Jess.’ Michael said, his attention still on Miranda. I looked up to see Ashton’s face, streaked with red. ‘You met up with her!’ I squealed jumping off the couch. Red flooded his face again as he turned his attention to the floor, a huge grin painted across his face. ‘Did you meet Fletcher?’ I asked. He simply nodded his head as he moved his gaze off the floor.

‘I have to admit. He is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.’
