The two us our lie there, our legs intertwined and my head on his chest, as our hearts beat fast and our legs shake. We are now wearing underwear and it is the middle of the night, although luckily in Sydney it isn’t very cold at night, just a warm breeze.
“Do you regret that?” Luke softly asks me, breaking the silence.
“No,” I simply answer.
“Good,” he replies, stroking my stomach lightly.
We lie in silence for another while, with no sounds but our breaths. Just as I feel sleep about to overcome me, Luke whispers into my ear,
“It’s a beautiful name you know,”
“What is?”
“Lillian.”
I fall asleep smiling.
I wake up to somebody playing with my hair. I open my eyes to see Luke a mere millimetres away from my face, staring at me and smiling. I laugh and roll over.
“Luke you have no idea how creepy that was,”
“I have only been awake for a few minutes!” He protests,
“Yeah sure,” I laugh.
He crawls over and lies on top of me.
“Luke!”
“You’re comfy!” He sheepishly giggles.
We play fight for a bit before checking the time. It is half six, and Luke has to meet the boys at 9.
“Come on,” I pull him up and the two of us climb down the ladder and back down the stage.
“Shit which door is it?”
“Ummm...” Luke wonders around and finally finds the right one. We find the exit eventually and soon find ourselves on the empty streets of Sydney. Hand in hand, we walk home, talking about the tour.
When we get to my house he stops and pulls me in for a hug.
“I won’t be able to say this later or it will seem weird, so look after yourself and I will miss you so much,” Luke mutters into my ear, his voice still a bit croaky.
“You too Hemmings,” I reply softly.
“Can I kiss you please?”
I respond by planting my lips on his and kissing him softly before pulling away and entering my house. I had told my mum that I was sleeping at a friend’s house after the concert, so she wasn’t worried.
I tiptoe in my room and put my phone on charge but then it hits me.
I have cheated. On my boyfriend. On Calum.
I sit in shock for a few minutes.
What was I thinking?!
Suddenly, I feel dirty so I take a quick shower, which relaxes me a bit. I then put some makeup on in an attempt to cover up all the hickeys and get changed.
I then take my IPod and earphones, go for a walk to clear my mind. On the way back I decide to go to Calum’s house and help him pack, just so I can see his face and forget about Luke.
He answers the doorbell after a few minutes, wearing nothing but his boxers, his hair in a big mess.
“Whoa Lily what are you doing up so early!”
“Calum it’s eight you need to go soon!”
“Shit!” He curses, turning around and sprinting up the stairs. I take this as an opportunity to admire his toned back muscles.
Laughing as I take my shoes off, I look up to see him jumping down the stairs.
“Sorry I forgot to say good morning princess,” He smiles, wrapping me in his bare arms and kissing my nose. I smile and hug him back, but the guilt I feel is somewhat overwhelming.
He takes my hand and we go to his room, where I sit on his small bed and discuss what he will need while he is packing.
“A toy frog? Horse mask? Seripusly Calum I don’t think-”
“They will come in use, I just know it!” He proudly grins as he shoves them in his bag. He then goes to his wardrobe and picks up a huge pile of clothes and just throws them in.
“No Calum you have to fold them! They will crease! I groan at him, and bend down beside his suitcase, individually folding each piece of clothing and storing them neatly into his bag.
“Thanks sweetie,” He kisses the top of my head and goes into his bathroom to pack some toiletries.
There is a knock at the door and a middle-aged woman comes in, holding a pile of jeans.
“Calum I think you will need thes- hello I am so sorry, you must be Lily! Calum has told me so much about you! I am Calum’s mum!”
Calum enters the room cringing.
“Mum!” He groans at her.
“It’s fine Calum, hello Mrs Hood!” I stand up and greet her.
“Please call me Joy!” She smiles and engulfs me in a hug.
She leaves the room and Calum starts to talk about his gaming record and I start to zone out. The family has sort of accepted me, but I slept with Luke. How do I live with myself?
Soon Ashton is here, and the two boys start to discuss the tour and where they are going, while I awkwardly sit on the bed. Michael comes in, followed by Luke, who is in a very good ,ood, almost bouncing off the walls.
All the boy’s families are downstairs so we all talk for a while before they all say goodbye. It is quite a heart-warming moment. An d then the taxi pulls up outside to take them to the airport, with me tagging along.
Michael and Ashton sit in the back of the car while I sit in-between Calum and Luke in the back. They wave bye to their families and before we know it, we are zooming down the motorway. Calum puts his arm round my neck and pulls my head onto his chest, while Luke awkwardly stares out of the window, playing with his fingers.
The car journey isn’t too long, most of it is spent by listening to Calum and Michael fight about the best song on the new All Time Low album. We arrive at the airport and we all climb out. I walk with them to the bag drop off, and once their bags have been taken in they need to go through security, which I can’t get through.
Ashton pulls me into a hug first, telling me to look after myself and to text him everyday, which I of course agree too. Michael then wraps me up, telling me pretty much the same as Ashton. I then walk to Luke, who is looking around like a lost puppy. We share a quick hug and he mutters something about texting him, when I move onto Calum.
He wraps his arms round my waist and picks me up, telling me how much he will miss me. He then puts me down and looks me straight in the eye.
“Lily I have something to tell you, don’t feel like you have to respond, in fact I will walk away after I say it,” He says very nervously.
“What is it Calum?” I ask, slightly worried.
“I love you Lily,”
I open my mouth in shock but before I have a chance to reply he has turned around and into security, where I quickly lose sight of the four Aussie boys.
He is the first boy who I am not related to that has ever said he loves me. If only he knew.
