17 and Lost {Luke Hemmings}

Chapter 25

‘Great performance babe.’ Luke smiled, passing me a bottle of water. I gave him a smile before chugging half the bottle.

‘Thanks. Do we have to go to the studio?’ I asked. My feet had been killing, dancing around in these shoes. It’s been a while since I performed in heels, because I preferred performing in flats or Converses.

‘Nah. The boys are recording part of the song and I’m gonna do mine tomorrow, when you record the album.’ He said showing off his dimples.

‘Thank goodness. I feel like I could fall asleep at any second.’ I chuckled picking up my bag.

‘I know. My back is so sore from those plane seats.’ He groaned, rubbing his back a little. I chuckled again and leant up to kiss his cheek. Your hands were clasped together as you exited the studio. Fans were crowded along the barriers calling out our names. We quickly greeted a few fans and took some photos before being ushered into the limo.

We arrived at the hotel not long after and were once again rushed into the lobby.

‘Hello Miss Carter and Mr Hemmings. You are staying in the presidential suite. Here are your room keys. Have fun.’ She smiled, sending a flirty wink to Luke. I was trying my hardest not to throw up. Now this lady was probably in her late 30’s and she was trying to pass as 21. Now I’m sure that she would be beautiful if she removed about 10 tonnes of make-up and pulled her dress up a little.

‘Oh we will.’ Luke smirked at me, licking his lips a little. My mouth fell open at the same time the ladies did, as Luke chuckled pulling me towards the elevator.

When we stepped in, Luke exploded in laughter.

‘Horny shit.’ I mumbled, pressing the button.

‘Toriiiiii. Hurry up. I wanna cuddle.’ Luke whined from outside the room.

I smirked to myself as I finished putting my hair in a plait. I was wearing a pair of camo sweatpants and my 5SOS tank. I had absoloutely no make-up on my face, showing a few freckles and blemishes on my skin. I grabbed my phone and Ugg boots before walking out to find Luke spread across the couch.

I went over and sat on him so I was straddling his lap. He looked up at me with a huge grin on his face, his eyes sparkling as well.

‘Where is everyone?’ I asked.

‘Um Ash and Jess went to Anne and Frank’s with Fletcher. Cal and Mel are at Mel’s place and Mikey is in his room Skyping Miranda.’ Luke said, before pressing a kiss to my neck.

His eyes scanned my face once more, looking at every little feature. I never had felt more insecure around him then I had right now due to the blemishes on my face.

‘You’re the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.’ He whispered, placing his lips on mine.

I woke up the next morning, by the sound of my alarm. Luke groaned from next to me and tried to bury his head into my neck.

‘Luke we need to get ready.’ I whined trying to push him off me.

‘Fine.’ He mumbled rolling away from me. I slowly pulled myself out of bed and walked over to my suitcase. We weren’t spending too much time in America so I didn’t want to have to unpack and pack my suitcase again.

After Luke and I had a bit of a cuddle sesh last night, I got a call from Simon explaining what was going to be happening the next few weeks. We were going to record the majority of the songs this week, to have them ready for when we put the album together in London. We are going to have a campaign launch/ album release party on June 30th, about two weeks before Luke’s birthday.
