Chapter Three

***Blue's POV***

It was my third day staying with them. I still never told them about my past. They never asked. It's better that way. I don't want them to pity me.

I didn't want to sit around and do nothing so I decided to go on a walk. Luke just happened to want to come along. I didn't mind. He was quiet also and that was what I liked about him.

We were already three blocks away. "Ouch." I said under my breath. "What?" Luke asked. "I think I have something in my eye." I told him. "Here," Luke says,"let me see." We stop walking and he looked at my eye. "I don't see anything." He said. "Oh, ok." I shrugged.

Before I know it, Luke leans in and kisses me. I pull away and punch him. "What do you think your doing? You have a girlfriend." I exclaimed. "I'm sorry." He mumbles. "Well, sorry doesn't cut it." I reply before turning around and running away from Luke. I ran in the direction of there flat but I didn't want to go there.

Where else could I go? Nowhere.

I heard Luke running behind me calling my name but I didn't stop.

When I got to the flat I didn't see Luke anywhere. He must of gave up and walked the rest of the way. I walked inside and stared at the floor as I walked straight to the bathroom. The other boys were in the kitchen and living room. I made sure they wouldn't see or hear me come in. I locked the door to the bathroom and tried to think of what just happened. What will his girlfriend think? Will she be mad at me and not want to be my friend? Will she be mad at Luke and break up with him?

He kissed me. I didn't kiss him. But I did punch him. It is most likely that we won't ever be friends again.

I didn't realize it until I looked in the mirror that I was crying. I quickly wiped my tears. my knuckles hurt from punching him. I took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom. I don't see any of the boys in the kitchen or living room. "Michael? Ashton? Calum?" I wish I knew where they were.

I walked into the living room again and sat down on the couch. Then I heard the boys walking downstairs. Right at that time Luke walked in. He had a bruise on his left cheek. The boys ran up to him and asked what had happened. I tried not to make a sound and ran upstairs. I opened one of the doors and walked into a room I wasn't familiar with. It was one of the boys bedrooms. It was a mess. I sat on the floor and pulled my knees up to my chest and put my head down. I cried. I felt terrible.

***Ashton Irwin's POV***

"Luke what happened to your face?" I asked surprised. He had a bruise on his left cheek.

"I- Is Blue here?" He asked. "Haven't seen her." Calum answered. "What happened, mate?"

"She punched me." He told us.

"Why on earth would she do that?" Michael asks.

"I may have kissed her." Luke stared at the ground.

"You idiot, you have a girlfriend. You deserved it!" I exclaimed.

After that I ran upstairs. I was mad. I opened my door to my room and heard somebody crying. I looked around. That's when I saw Blue crying.

"Blue, I'm not mad at you." I told her. She looked up at me. "He deserved it."

"If he deserved it then why do I feel so bad about it?" She asked.

Honestly, I didn't know the answer to that question. She wiped her eyes and stood up. "I think I need to talk to him." Blue said walking downstairs.

***Blue's POV***

"I think we need to talk." I say to Luke. He is holding an icepack against his bruised face.

"Really? Because I don't." He remarks walking out of the kitchen.

"Since when did you become so rude?" I asked.

"Since when did you go around slapping people?" He replies.

"The second you started kissing people when you have a girlfriend."

"I already apologized, okay?" He says leaning against the wall.

"What are you going to say to Aby, eh?" I asked.

"I'm not going to tell her." He mutters.

"How mature of you, Luke." I say. "But why did you kiss me in the first place?"

"Maybe I like you too, alright. I just had to kiss you at least once. And now I know you don't feel the same so I might as well leave you alone." He replies.

I stood there surprised. I didn't say anything.

"But you know what? It is fine because somebody else likes you. Maybe they'll have a better chance than I did." He says before walking away.

Who does he mean by 'It is fine because somebody else likes you'?

Suddenly, it is clear.

He means Michael.

Michael likes me.

****

Later that night, I lie awake in bed unable to sleep. It is 12:07. I have too many things on my mind.

Luke likes me. He kissed me. I punched him. His cheek is bruised. What will the fans think about that? What will Aby think about that? He admitted that Michael likes me. Do I like Michael back? I haven't talked to him since a little before the walk. What does he think about all of this? What does all of the boys think about this? Do I still want to be friends with Luke? Do I like Luke?

All of these questions have been left unanswered. When will they be answered?

I heard somebody walking out of there room. I guess I am not the only one still awake. Maybe they can't sleep either from all of the thoughts in there head.

Whoever it is opens my door slowly and whispers my name. I can't tell who it is. It is too dark. So I whisper back, "What?".

"I can't sleep." They say back.

"Either can I. If you want, you can stay in here and we can just talk until we both fall asleep?" I ask.

"Sure." He walks over and lays down beside me.

We ask each other dumb little questions until we fall asleep.

"What's your favorite color?" He'd ask.

"Blue." I'd answer.

And then after every question and answer we'd lay there and stare out the window at the stars. They were beautiful.

"What are you so afraid of?" He asked.

"Never being good enough." I answered closing my eyes.

The boy didn't ask why. He didn't say anything after that and I was thankful for that.

The boy was Luke.
