First Love [Luke Hemmings]

Chp 17

"1...2..3..."

Michael starts playing his guitar in a low rhythm &then Calum starts with a low base.

I take a look around the auditorium to see the faces of the whole class as they react to the song I was going to sing.

I look at Anne &i see her face... speechless.

"What would I do without your smart mouth?..."

I hope she knows that I love her.

I hope she knows that she means everything to me.

I hope she knows that I'll be here for her even if she is a grenade.

I hope she knows that she looks beautiful when she doesn't wear makeup.

I hope she knows that she is the cutest when she scrunches her nose when she see's other girls looking at me.

...Yeah I notice.

"Cause all of me, loves all of you. Love your curves &all your edges, all your perfect imperfections...

I love the way her hair smells. A scent of lavender.

I love the way she snorts when I tickle her on her ticklish spot.

I love the way she reads her books, the way she study's.

I love how she fidgets every time I hold her hand or she feels my skin against hers.

"You're my downfall, you're my muse"

She brings me hope.

She gives me strength.

She gives me excitement.

She gives me faith.

She keeps me sane.

"I give you all of me & you give me all of you"

I stare at her the whole time I was singing. I don't care if everyone knows that it was for her because honestly everyone should know that it's for her.

"Good Job Luke!" I hear Mr. making me loose my focus on Anne.

"Thanks Mr." I smile at him

"Okay everyone that's it!" He clapped his hands as I walked back stage with the boys "that was the last act &also the last day of class! have a great summer everyone" everyone cheered & made there way towards the exit. except me &the boys, we had to clean up.

"Hey Luke!" I heard Luis

"Hey"i smiled at him as he came in for a high five

"That was great Luke, I'm glad you did it yourself" he smiled at me

"Thanks bro" I smiled at him "&Anne?" I asked looking for her.

"She will be waiting for you outside okay" he smiled at me "I have to go, have a good summer Luke"

"You too Luis" I waved at him.

It will be great summer.

"Okay guys let's hurry this up!" I screamed to the boys as we started to pick up our instruments "don't want to keep Anne waiting" I whispered to myself.

Anne's POV

"Anne" I hear my name as I'm waiting for Luke outside the auditorium.

"Oh Hey Luis" I smiled at him "is Luke still inside?"

"Yeah he is but I told him that you will wait for him outside" he smiled at me "how are you doing?"

"I'm doing good" I smiled at him again "thank you for not singing with him Luke"

"It would of been awkward cause I don't love you like that anymore" he says as he pinches my nose "&besides that was a very corny song" he laughed

"Oh stop that" I laughed as I pulled his hand away from my nose "that actually hurts"

"How are you doing?" he asked me again

"I'm fine Luis" I looked at him confused as I massaged my nose with my palm "am I bleeding?" I raise my nose to his level

"No you aren't Anne" he laughed as he pinched my nose again "&& I mean how are "you" doing"

I looked into his soft brown eyes &realized why he is asking.

"It's been a good week Luis. I don't have many headaches, I don't get sick because the pain isn't that bad. it's a good week Luis" I smiled at him "I haven't had a good week since the longest"

"Are you going to tell Luke Anne?"

"Luis please.."

"Anne you can't just not tell him what's wrong with you. He cares for you so much that you won't tell him? what would you do if he found out?"

"Luis he won't find out..."

"How do you know?!"

This was the first time Luis ever raised his voice to me. "What's going on Luis?" I gave him a suspicious look "do you know something I don't??" Luis started to look away &starts to completely ignore me.

"I have to go" he says as he starts walking away "have a good fucking summer Anne"

"Luis look at me!" I ran after him &grabbed his arm to make him face me "you don't mean that do you?"

"I don't Anne" he looked at me &put his hands on my face "tell Luke Anne. You have too" he gave me a little peck on my forehead &then let me go. "I'll visit you I promise"

"Bye Luis" I told him as he left. I have to tell Luke, but how will he react? that's what I'm scarred of.
