Never Ending Love (Lullie+1D) SLOW UPDATES UNTIL JANUARY

Ch 9

Ellie's POV

I wake up when I hear the alarm clock go off. "Babe?" I say. "Mmm, five more minutes mum," Luke groans. "Luke, tour," I say. I get off the bed and pull my clothes off the shelf to get dressed.  He gets up. "Damn," he says, "Almost forgot."  "Get up!" I exclaim. He gets up and I, already dressed, go downstairs to make breakfast.

He comes downstairs in a Nirvana shirt and ripped skinny jeans. I am in a purple tank and ripped shorts with lace over the holes. He leans over, turns me around, and kisses me on the lips.

"Mmm," I moan. We stop kissing. "What's for breakfast?" he asks. "Pancakes and sausage," I tell him. He smiles. "Yum, sounds great," he tells me. "Now remember," I tell him, digging around in the cabinet until I find the pill bottle, "Take these before every concert, we can't have you like you were last time."

He takes it and shoves it in one of his bags. "Of course Ellie," he says, "And we'll talk every morning and night, right?" I nod and smile. "Obviously," I tell him, "And if you ever want to talk or just need advice or anything, I'm a call, text, or facetime away."

He smiles and starts singing a one direction song.

"Shot me outta the sky," he sings, "You're my kryptonite."  He keeps singing and I smile. He smiles back. "You know the words," he says, and then he slaps his head, "Well duh. You're Niall Horan's daughter. I smile and we sing.

"Get out get out, get outta my head. And fall into my arms instead. I don't I don't don't know what it is, but you've got that one thing and I need that one thing."

"You're a lovely singer," he tells me as I set the food on the table. I smile. "As if you haven't told me a million times," I say, sitting down with some food also.

"That would be nice every night," he says, "Singing. Wouldn't it?"  I smile. "I could listen to you sing all day," I tell him. "Same to you," he says. "Whatever," I say. I glance at the clock. "Two hours." 

"Calm down Ellie," he says, "We'll get there in time, it's a private jet. If I'm a little late, they'll wait."  "True," I say, "I'm just a little nervous for you guys. Trust me, I can't wait for the concerts in Australia and England." 

"England?" he asks, "You'll be there?"  "Well duh," I say, smiling, "I'll be with Niall and the boys backstage."  He smiles. "Good, because the 02 Arena always makes me nervous."  "Me too," I admit, "I've been to all kinds of arenas, and that one always makes me nervous for the boys."

We eat and I make sure Luke has everything he'll need. I honestly am probably more nervous than him. He thinks they've got it, no problem. I know better than him that things can and will go wrong.

"Alright, I guess we should be going," he says. I nod. "Yeah," I agree, "We should."  I hear something move in Luke's bag and look at him funny. He shrugs. I open it up and Blue jumps out.

"Awh, she's gonna miss daddy," he says, petting the dog as it licks his face. I smile.  "So will I," I say. That's when it gets to me. Six months.

He looks at me and his smile fades. "Ellie, I'll come back as soon as possible," he promises, "And we'll talk a lot, and there is plenty of time while we're here and in England for us to hang out."

I nod. "I'll just miss having you around," I tell him. He sighs and then smiles. "How about this," he says, "We both save the tears for the airport, and then you'll have many other friends to help rip us apart so I can get on the plane." 

I laugh. "Okay," I say. We get his stuff in the car and drive off.

As soon as we get there, we get out of the car. He throws me the keys. "They're yours for a while," he says. I nod. "I won't crash it," I promise, rolling my eyes. "Oh really?" he asks, then turns to his friends. I smack his bum. "Yup," I tell him. He takes my hand and we walk over to them.

He looks at me. "Now we can say our goodbyes," he says, holding me close. I put my arms around him and look up at him.

"Now I promise I'll call as soon as we land in America," he says, "And right before the concert, I'll call. And we can face time after the concert. Then, right before I go to sleep, we'll text each other."

I nod. "Sounds nice," I tell him. "I put a really annoying song as your ringtone so you'll wake up when I call," he tells me. My eyes go wide and I smile. "So did I!" I exclaim. We hug really tight. The fact that we did the same thing makes me emotional.

I look up at him. "If it's Hunter Hayes, I will find a way to wherever you are and murder you," I tell him. He is crying too. "I can't promise anything," he tells me, sniffing.

"We have to go," Michael says. I suppose he is the leader here since Lennie and him aren't that close yet. Calum and Jaime just finished. She is crying, but she'll e fine. Mia is probably about as bad as me.

I look at Luke. "When you land.." I start. "I'll call you,"  He promises, finishing my sentence. I kiss him. "That's why I love you."  We kiss for a very long time before he is pulled away from me. I see fans running toward us.

"Luke!" I shout, tears streaming down my face. "I'll call!" he cries from the crowd. Jaime, Lennie, Mia and I get in my car.

Mia sniffs from beside me. I put on the happiest face possible. "We fought last night," she blurts out.

"Mia!" Lennie shouts. "And he said it was okay but I know it's not," she says, "He hates me, he's so mad, oh my God Ellie, I screwed up, I fucked up bad."

I shake my head. "What did you do?" I ask. "I snapped at him about his band, we yelled a lot, and he says it's okay and to just forget about it, but I can't, I'm sure he's mad at me!" 

I shake my head. "Mia, Ashton couldn't hold a grudge against his worst enemy," I tell her. "I disagree," she says. "I don't," I tell her, "And when Luke calls later, I'll prove it to you."  She smiles. "Thanks Ellie," she says, "You're a real friend."  Meanwhile, Lennie and Jaime are conversing about something more complicated.

"Mikey and Lennie here fucked last night," Jaime says, making her eyebrows dance. My eyes widen. "He what?!" I ask.

Okay, so Lennie is innocent, he totally had to have pressured her. Getting your virginity taken away when you aren't exactly open to it isn't fun. I'm going to have a serious talk with that boy.

As soon as we get to my house, I look at the girls. "I forgot something," I tell them, running inside.

I pull out my phone and call Luke. He promptly answers. "Too Jamican!" he cries, referring to the ringtone. "No time for that," I tell him, "When does your plane take off?"

"Ten minutes," he says. Plenty of time. "But why?" he asks.

"Can I talk to Mikey?" I ask. "Why?" he asks. "Because he fucked my friend, hand it over to him," I tell him. "Okay okay," he says.

"Hello?" Mikey answers. "I am disgusted with you!" I shout, "How dare you!  Just pressure my innocent friend into having sex!  I always thought you were better than that!  You dick!"

"Dude, I didn't pressure her!" he yells at me. "Yeah fucking right," I scowl. "Yes, we both did it because we wanted too!" he yells back, "No drugs, no pressure, just love!"  "Oh sure," I say, sarcastically. "Why don't you believe me?" he asks. "Because Michael, she is a nice girl, she wouldn't fucking do that?  Why would she want that?!" 

"She did," he says, sincerely, "Ellie, please believe me. She wanted me as bad as I wanted her. I just feel that maybe for the first time...I'm actually in love."

"R-Really?" I stutter. "Yeah," he says, "I-I'll text you the details later, I'm sorry for yelling."  "Me too," I tell him, "You're a good guy Michael."  "Thanks," he says before hanging up.

I get back into the car. "I could hear you yelling inside," Lennie says, "You okay?"  

"Yeah," I say, smiling. "Why were you yelling then?" Jaime asks. "Niall spoiled the end of the Flowers in the Attic series," I tell her, "He read the books and I was just watching it."  She laughs. "Nice, so you know that..."

"Hey hey, I haven't finished it yet," Mia says. I smile.  "Let's keep our traps shut then and just go have some fun."  "Spoken wisely Hemmings," Lennie says. "As always, future Clifford," I reply, smiling.
