"maybe you'll be the one to save me."

I heard a loud banging on my door startling me.

"What." I groaned.

"Get up I'm taking you out, remember?" He spoke in a dull sarcastic tone.

"Ok just let me get ready." I sighed rolling out of bed.

"I'll be in my room." He said before leaving.

I quickly got dressed and unplugged my phone from the charger in the wall. On the way to Luke's room I almost fell. The music was blasting in his room making my knocking hard to be herd. So without approval I opened his door to him in just his boxers.

"Oh my god sorry!" I without even thinking covered my eyes.

"I really don't mind you looking." Luke chuckled.

He patted his bed signaling me to sit. I tried my best not to let my eyes trail over his body. I watched his back muscles flex as he tugged on a random band t-shirt from his drawer slipping on a pair of might I add ridiculously super right skinny jeans.

"How did you not even have trouble putting those jeans on?"

"Why wouldn't I?" He asked giving me a look laughing a bit making his dimple show. I felt my self mentally freak out.

"I don't know those jeans are just really skinny." I shrugged getting up.

"Speaking of jeans,those make your ass look great." He eyes them walking closer giving my butt a slap.

"Luke." I said in a warning tone.

"Fine, fine lets go." He grumbled.

Luke grabbed his keys slamming the house door shut. As soon as we got in the car Luke blasted the radio filling the speakers up with green day. The wether in Australia is amazing. I found myself staring out the car window looking around the area thrilled by everything. Luke suddenly lowered the volume of his music as we approached a red light.

"Where do you wanna go?" Luke asked.

"I don't care anywhere you recommend I guess."

We pulled up to a...park? Out of all places to go he choose a park. Don't get me wrong that cool but not what I was expecting.

"A park?" I asked.

"It's so much more than a park, Arabella." Luke climbed out of the car.

"Luke I really don't want to play on a play ground." I whined.

He just continued walking so I just followed him. Behind the park was a wood like looking area. It was actually a really beautiful sight. Luke continued to walk down the path of tress and grass. In the distance I noticed a what looked like a pond and there was a meadow surrounding it, beautiful flowers scattered everywhere.

"Wow." Was all I could say.

"This is where I go sometimes so I can just chill out and take a break." Luke mumbled looking around. I just nodded taking in the sight.

"When was the last time you came here?" I asked.

"I'd say four days ago." He thought.

Luke's phone went off interrupting the wonderful silence of nature.

"Hello?.... Calum, wait what? Are you eating? I can't understand you." Luke spoke aggravated.

"Ok see you later, bye." He hung up.

"We're going over calum's house."

"Hey you always get the door when someone comes over." Someone called out, maybe ashton I think?

"Yeah because this my house." Ok that was Calum. There was a loud thud noise against the door.

"Hey guys I'm gonna order pizza." That was definitely Michael.

Me and luke had been waiting outside calum's house for like 10 minutes because Calum and Ashton are arguing about who's gonna open the door. Finally a very disheveled looking Ashton answered the door with Calum on the floor beside him.

"Hey guys." Ashton giggled.

Luke just walked in mumbling "sup" I just smiled shyly. I walked in the house entering the messy living room with empty soda cans and gaming remote controls everywhere.

"The pizza should be here in like fifteen minutes, oh hey Ara." I noticed Michael caught on to my nickname.

"Hey." I shyly greeted him waving awkwardly.

"Ugh game of thrones episode last night was insane. The most epic cliff hanger ever now I have to wait next fucking week." Michael groaned.

"That shows weird all I ever see when I watch it is sex but in the 1700's." Calum laughed.

"Calum, that show is based more in the 1500's." Ashton rolled his eyes.

"Yeah whatever all I'm saying is that show is basically porn." Calum joked.

"And you're complaining?" I asked.

"Yeah man like seriously it's not like you don't watch porn." Michael snickered.

"I've caught Calum watching porn at least 20 times." Luke spoke up.

There was a knock on the door.

"Pizza!" Michael yelled.

He sprinted to the door quickly paying the pizza man and rushing back over to the kitchen.

"Everyone dig in."
