Friends|| l.h.

Chapter 4

It's been 2 weeks. 2 full weeks and I still haven't talked to Luke. I never realized how hard this would be, I pictured me and Luke to be friends forever. I never pictured us to stop talking because we may have gotten feelings for each other.

It may sound dramatic, but not having him around is a very empty feeling. I just feel like I lost my other half and am having a hard time trying to fill that void because I don't want to make him even more mad by forcing him into talking to me. That's the last thing I want to do. All I want is him to be here to hold me and tell me that were okay and he would never want to stop being friends with me.

During these past 2 weeks, I've had a lot of problems with Ryan and was constantly crying or screaming. He would call or text me telling me how sorry he was and how he wanted to get back together but then when I would say no, he would call me a lonely whore and tell me that I couldn't give him want he wanted and that's why he cheated. Each new message from him killed me a little more inside. Times like this are when I really needed Luke.

I have been following my normal routine of going to school, work, then home. I have noticed that in the past 2 weeks I haven't seen Luke during our math class. I figured he was maybe visiting home or leaving early since it is our last class of the day and he takes two math courses.

I came home from school today and walked past Luke apartment. I could hear maybe the TV or music on. I tried so hard to not let the curiosity get the best of me. I knocked on the door and heard some rustling. A ruffled up Luke answered the door. His hair was a mess and he was in a pair of baggy sweatpants and a white t-shirt. He wasnt looking at me when he answered the door. He was just staring at the ground. But I could see that his eyes were red and puffy.

"Luke?" I spoke up

His head shot up realizing that it was me.

"Kassidy, what are you doing here? I mean I'm glad your here I just didn't know or think you would come over here" his eyes were glassy and puffy

"I heard the tv on and realized you were home. I came to check on you and make sure you weren't sick or anything. You've missed school for the past 2 weeks. That's not like you"

"Kassidy I'm so sorry. I didn't mean what I said. I just got angry and upset because honestly, I've liked you for like 3 years now. I just didn't have the courage to say it. And when I found out that you might like me too, I was so happy. Then when we kissed I immediately thought that were gonna start up something. I completely forgot that you just broke up with someone and I just started rushing into things. The one thing that I was worried about was you not liking me back and that my feelings for you would make our friendship awkward. I just fucked it up by getting mad and my own jealousy."

He was crying now. All I could do was wrap my arm around his waist. He loosely hugged me, but I didn't want that. I squeezed him tighter and he realized what I was doing. He hugged me tighter. I began crying myself. Out of happiness for having him back or of the thought of I'm the reason why he was upset was the reason why.

"I do like you Luke. I always have" I said sobbing into his shirt

We stood there in the doorway of his apartment in our tight embrace. We finally pulled away and he just looked at me and smiled one of the biggest smiles I've ever seen on him.

" I'm glad to have you back" he said

We stared into each other's eyes. I felt the feeling come over me that I felt two weeks ago. I wanted to kiss Luke again. This time more than anything I guess he had the same idea because he spoke up right after

"Kassidy, can I kiss you?" He was biting on his lip ring. It was honestly incredibly hot

"Not out here." I said and with that he lead me inside.

We walked into the door way and he shut the door. I started towards the living room and sat on the couch. Luke came over and sat with me. I made the first move. I fisted his shirt and pulled him down to me. At first the kiss was slow and passionate, but then got more heated. Luke slid his tounge across my bottom lip and I allowed him entrance. His tongue explored my mouth then eventually ours battled for dominance. Luke pulled me onto his lap so that way I could startle him. We made out for about 10 minutes until we were completely out of breath. I rested my hands and head on his chest. He stroked my hair while I laid there. I could've stayed like this forever. It was that feeling that nothing could ever hurt me. Ryan never gave me that feeling.

"Kass, can I ask you something?" He said still stroking my hair

"Of course"

"I wanted to do this later but I figured that this would be a good time."

I pushed up on his chest so that way I could look at him. There were so many butterflies

"Would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" He asked cheesily. Luke is always such a cheesy person

"Of course"

I kissed him and laid my head down on his chest again.

Who knew that my best friend of 11 years would end up being my boyfriend?

The rest of out night consisted of watching tv, kissing, and my trying to catch Luke up in what he missed in math. It wasn't that hard because Luke was somewhat of a genius.

We were in the middle of a tv show when I got a phone call. It was Ryan

"Hello?" I said hesitantly.

Luke looked at me and gave me a questioning look. I mouthed "Ryan" and his expression dropped.

"Hey baby" he said slurring. Ryan wasn't the type to always drink, but when he did he got drunk

"Don't call me that. You know that were over"

I pushed myself up of the couch and paced around the room

"Aww come on. You know I love you. So what are you doin right now beautiful"

The sound of him talking to me like this disgusted me and just pissed me off. I could also see that Luke was getting more pissed off everytime he could tell that he was talking to me in a bad way

"Don't talk to me that. You know that were over. Plus I have some one else"

"You what?! How the hell have you got someone else. You stupid whore, hopping around from guy to guy. Why don't I come over there and I can show you what a real man is like" he was getting angrier during his sentence

"No. You're drunk. You can't drive"

"I have a ride. I'll be there in 20" and with that he hung up.

Ryan isn't a small guy. He's pretty built and Luke isn't small either. But with Ryan being drunk and angry it worried me.

"What's the matter?" Luke asked getting off the couch and coming over to me, putting a hand on my shoulder

"Ryan's coming, and he's pissed......"
