I woke up the next morning with Luke still wrapped around me. I smiled and kissed his cheek before trying to get up without waking him. No such luck.

"Ughhh," Luke groaned. "What are you doing babe?"

"Your morning voice sounds sexy," I said. Luke smiled while rubbing his eyes.

"Does it really now?" Luke smirked. I pushed his arm. He almost fell off the bed. I caught him and helped him back on. "Oh you're going to pay for that," Luke said smiling. Then he started tickling me like crazy. I laughed until my ribs hurt. Then I pulled his hands away.

"I'm really tired," I said, burying my head in his chest.

"Well you are the one that woke both of us up," Luke said wrapping his arms around you.

"Because I can't sleep."

"That makes no sense."

"Yes it does. I'm tired but there are so many things going through my head right now that I just can't sleep."

"Well just relax, babe. Everything's gonna be alright. I promise."

"I hope you're right."

Luke soon fell back asleep. I decided to do the same.

When I woke up again, Luke was gone. I assumed he went down for breakfast. I got up and made my way downstairs. I bumped into Strike as I walked out the door.

"Morning Sara," he sleepily said.

"Morning Strike," I replied.

"I think the are all getting breakfast downstairs," he said, already walking down.

"Okay."

I followed him down the stairs and to the kitchen. Sure enough, everyone else was there. I walked over to sit next to Luke.

"Did you all get a good nights sleep?" Luke's mom asked.

"I guess so," Calum answered.

"Why's that?"

"Ashton kept making noises in his sleep."

"I did not!"

"Did too!"

"Not!"

"Too!"

"Not!"

"Too!"

"Stop! You're giving me a headache," Jesy said. We all laughed.

"How about you girls? Did you sleep well?"

"I slept fine," Jesy answered.

"Sara?"

"Fine."

She turned to look at me. She stared at the side of my face for a long time with a concerned look on her face. "What happened to you last night?" She finally asked.

"Her mom smacked her across the face," Luke answered for me.

"Why did she do that?"

"Because Sara refused to go back home with her."

Luke's mom came over and hugged me tight. "You are welcome to stay here as long as you would like," she said. "Why did your mom want you to go home with her?"

"It's a long story," I said. Then I told her everything.

"Luke isn't a bad kid. I mean yea he does some stupid things here and there, but still," she said.

"That's exactly what I was trying to say to my parents. They just wouldn't listen. And it's not like I'm changing. I'm still the same person I was before I started dating Luke," I replied.

"Only now you are a little more daring to do things," Jesy said, smiling at me and raising her eyebrows.

"Shush it," I said, laughing.

"So how are you going to get your stuff?" Ashton asked.

"I hadn't thought about that," I said, rubbing my eyes with the palms of my hands.

"We can sneak in through your bedroom window," Jesy suggested.

"What if we get caught?"

"Lets just try it and see."

"Okay."
