chapter 4
"Luke, hurry" Charlotte said when she stood under the running water.
"Babe, I'm trying my best, but I have to get the smoke out of my mouth first." Luke said slightly frustrated, with his toothbrush in his mouth.
Charlotte was still crying, it seemed like there was no end for her tears, they kept rolling down her cheeks. She had trouble standing on her own feet and leaned against the wall, she was shaking so bad.
After three more minutes waiting, Luke was finally done brushing his teeth. He saw the pile of Charlotte's clothes next to the shower, so he dropped his clothes close to the door. There was no way the smoke would get in her clothes if his clothes lay there.
As soon as he stepped in the shower Charlotte wrapped her arms around Luke's torso. There weren't many words to say, so they just stood there for a while; Luke trying to calm Charlotte down and Charlotte trying to relax in his embrace.
"Can you do something for me?" Charlotte asked after a while.
"Anything for my princess," Luke mumbled in her hair. He knew what question was coming, he knew what she was gonna ask and he would do it for her.
"Can you stop smoking for maybe a day, till tomorrow night. I promise you, tomorrow night you can smoke as much as you want. But now I really want to spend some time with you. I need you Luke, more than ever. Can you please do that for me?" While she was saying this her grip on his torso got tighter. She was scared to ask this question, she knew how important smoking was for Luke. But she meant what she said; she really needed him now.
Luke knew he would miss at least 5 cigarettes now, but he also knew what he had to do for his girlfriend. "Of course, baby. What do you wanna do when we get out the shower?"
"I just want to be with you, I don't care what we're gonna do then. We could watch a movie, or just lay in bed, or when can go to the park or .."
She got interrupted by Luke's lips pressing to hers. A smile formed on her lips as Luke said "I get it, we can do anything you want."
