A/N: Shout out to   Be_youXx   bc she was my first comment ever on this story like yaaaaas.

(Skylar’s POV)

I felt the gust of wind from the door swinging closed leaving me in Luke’s room alone. I quickly snapped out of my mini freak out deciding to change out of my now sticky shirt. I pulled on Luke’s plain black shirt making sure to close his door on the way out. I made my way down the stairs of this big ass house. The others were probably wondering where I’m at, I’ve been gone for at least 10 minutes. I arrived back to the kitchen quickly finding my new group of friends.

“What took you so long?” Kaytee left her boyfriend’s embrace to come stand next to me.

“Oh, uhh I had an erm...accident?” How the fuck was I supposed to explain this?

“What happened?” Elena was now over gossiping with us now. I picked up the hand that was holding my beer soaked t-shirt. They both gave me a puzzled look.

“I got her soaking wet.” A deep voice rang out over the loud music. I felt a presence standing behind me and my eyes widened slightly. I looked up to the two girls standing in front of me to see both of them erupting in fits of giggles watching both of us back and forth. I turned around to meet once again those beautiful fucking blue eyes. He looked at me for a second until he diverted his attention to Calum and Ashton who joined it the chorus of laughter.

“So I see you two have already met?” Calum asked. Luke looked my way once more shooting me a smile.

“Guess you could say that.” he shrugged.

“Luuuuuke!!” A high pitched yell came from across the kitchen. I heard the girls scoff while rolling their eyes turning their attention to a short bleach blonde girl wearing a skirt that shows her ass cheeks off perfectly. Luke turned his attention to the girl breaking our eye contact. When she came close enough to our group she scanned her eyes over each one of us. Both Kaytee and Elena shooting her daggers. It was honestly kind of amusing to see these girls who wouldn’t harm a fly try to come off as tough and intimidating. When her eyes saw how close Luke and I were to each other she sent me a wicked smile earning an eye roll from me. She reached up behind Luke’s neck bringing his ear to her mouth whispering god knows what to him. He smiled nodding his head once before clearing his throat.

“Uhh, that’s my queue. I’ll see you around guys. Nice um…meeting you Skylar.” I waved goodbye and like that he vanished into the sea of people. I frowned thinking about what that girl whispered to him. What did she want? Why do I even care? I should be fucking pissed at him for ruining my favorite Nirvana shirt. God dammit.

“Hey Skylar” Kaytee said trying to get my attention. “Want to come shopping with Lenni and I at Cunningham mall tomorrow?” Thank god she saved me from drowning in my own curiosity. 

“Um, sure?” I agreed sounding more as a question.

“Yay!” Kaytee exclaimed. Kaytee and Elena went into deep conversation about some project in school. I searched for Luke, but he was nowhere to be found. I felt my phone vibrate from my back pocket as I whipped it out quickly scanning over the new text message from Bryanna.  “Let's go. Meet you outside.” I sighed putting my phone back in its place.
