Amnesia // Luke Hemmings

Chapter 22

*Luke's P.O.V.*

I wake up like every other day, tired as fuck. I start to get ready for school- wait, I don't need to go to school again. I let out a little chuckle, school was such a drag. I'm better off doing it solo, better than being with loads of people I could care less about. Wait, oh my god. I forgot, fuck. What Michael said, how am I supposed to tell Katrina? This relationship has barely started and now it's fucked. I'm praying she doesn't take it badly, but I need to tell her. I'm not going to wait last minute and rip her heart to shreds, I doubt she cares that much about me, but I just don't want to upset her. She's my world, my sunshine. She makes me happy, but in a week, we'll be torn apart.

Oh god, I don't know how I'm going to be able to this. I'm so nervous. I'm praying to every god in every religion this doesn't turn out badly. I pull out my phone, type in my pass code, and send her a quick text for her to come to my house. I hope she's not thinking that I'm going to break up with her or that I'm going to just leave her and hook up with groupies, because I would never ever do that to her.

She arrives sooner than I expected, and I'm nervous as hell as I turn the knob to let her into my house. "Hey." she kisses me on my cheek. I'm feeling guiltier by the minute. How will I be able to get through the days without seeing her beautiful face every day? This is going to be a living hell without her. I lead her up to my room, I'm not ready at all.

"Did you need to talk to me about something?" She asked worriedly.

"Actually, yes I do." I shrug, pulling my lips in and biting them.

Her eyes fill with worried and a bit of sadness, if only I knew what she was thinking.

"What is it?" She struggles to say, I notice she's a little shaky.

"I'm- I have to- I- I can't. I don't know how to tell you this." I choke on my words.

"Don't tell me you're about to say what I think you are about to say." She gulps.

"What do you think I'm going to say?" I grab her hands, and hold them in mine. She has such small hands conpared to mine, it's really cute.

"You're going to break up with me aren't you?" She struggles to say without breaking into tears and sobbing.

"Dear god no. I would have to be an idiot to break up with you. God. I may be a bit dumb, but I'm not stupid. I would never ever break up with you."

"Oh, thank goodness." She lets out a sigh of relief.

"But, there is something I have to tell you."

"Go on."

"I'm dropping out of school."

"Wait, what?" She says, even more worried than the thought of me breaking up with her.

"My band is getting to popular to continue attending public school."

"That's great!" She claps her hands, "I'm so happy and proud you guys are getting to recognition you guys deserve."

"That's not all." I look down.

"What else is there to add?" She smiles. Wow, this is going to be hard.

"Louis Tomlinson from One Direction saw our cover on YouTube."

"Oh my god! That's so awesome!" She leans over and hugs me, then gives me a kiss on the lips, "So, so, so, proud of guys." she says between kisses.

I pull away, "He also invited us to be the opening act for them on the Take Me Home Tour. We have to leave for London in a week." I blurt out.

Her smile drops, but returns moments later. "Don't hate me please." I close my eyes, not wanting to see her facial expressions.

"Hate you? How could I hate you for living your dream?" She replies calmly.

"So, you're not angry or anything?" I'm surprised by the way she's handling this. Most girls would have freaked out and would have broken up with me, but good thing Katrina's not like most girls.

"Of course not!" She smiles, the smile doesn't look to genuine. I think she's forcing it, but I'd rather not ask more about it. "The most I can do is be the supportive girlfriend."

"Oh my god," I embrace her into a hug "You're the bestest ever."

"Bestest isn't a word silly." She giggles as she pokes my cheek.

"In my vocabulary, it is." I smile at her, how could a guy like me, get a girl as wonderful as her? She's the best, nobody could ever top her.

"How did I get so blessed to have an amazing girlfriend? You're the bestest girlfriend ever!"

"And you're the bestest boyfriend ever!" She smiles. That's when it hit me. I'm in love with this girl. I love her, I love Katrina.

"I love you." I blurt out.

"What?"

"I love you." I repeat myself, saying each word slower.

"Are you sure? How could you love... well me?" She bites her lip. If only she could read my thoughts, well fuck, I'm going to share my thoughts right now.

"How could I not? You're the bestest girlfriend ever. You're supporting me, even though I'm leaving to a whole another continent! For fucks sake, I love you. You're probably thinking 'Oh god, this idiot doesn't even know what love is, he's such an idiot' well fuck, I love you. I can't hide my feelings for you, I love you. If I were to tell anyone else this, they'd laugh at me. They'd laugh at me and they'd shake their head. They'd say I'm too young to know what love is. You know what I would say? Fuck you. People assume you have to be a certain age to say you love someone, but that's complete bullshit because I love you. I fucking love you Katrina McVey. I love you so, so, so much. One day, your name's not going to be Katrina McVey, it's going to be Katrina Hemmings. The day I marry you will be the best day of my life. I'm trying my bet to express my feelings, but you probably don't even care. I'm only sixteen but I love you so much. I'm going to tour the world, but I'm not doing alone, you're going to be by my side. We will do everything together, once I get it all straightened out, I promise. It might take a while, but I promise you we will. I love you so much, I'm will to do whatever you want. You're my always and forever. I love you so much, I loved you for the past year. Truth be told, I never stopped loving you, even when you didn't know who I was. You're the bestest." I confess all my feelings, no point in hiding them.

I lift my head to see Katrina in tears as she climbs over to hug me. As we hug, she whispers in my ear,

"I love you too."
