I managed to pull myself together after the encounter with Zayn, and joined everyone on the patio. My mother, Trish, and Olivia were too caught up in their conversation on the other side; laughing along with a glass of wine in their hands, just having a good time. Its good to see my mum having a enjoying herself, i never seen her this happy ever since my dad left us behind. But she stayed strong and supported me even if it kills her that my dad lied and said that he'll never leave her side. Like she always told me,'Moving on doesn't mean you forget about things. It just means you have to accept what happened and continue on living.' 

Once i stepped foot onto the patio i slid the glass door half way and looked around to nor Zayn and Pierre out here. Then i saw Luke on the other of the patio, he turned when he noticed my presence. I could tell he was probably getting bored staying stuck with our mother's and listening to them chatting away about who knows. As soon as i came out, his eyebrows lifted and his entire face brightened, causing me to smile. 

"Where have you been? I was getting quite bored out here." He whispered the last part gesturing to our mothers, who's still caught up in their conversation.

I chuckled softly. "I'm sorry. Please don't get mad at me." I gave him a playful pout, causing him to laugh softly.

"Now, why would I be mad at you. You're my girl, i could never be mad at you." He leaned down and kissed my forehead.

I smiled. "I don't know what i'd do if you wasn't here." I said.

"Well, i'm here. And don't worry about Zayn and that bitchy girlfriend of his. They won't try anything since i'm here." He said.

I frowned a bit after what Zayn just said about a while ago, I don't know whether to believe him or not. If only Luke was there to see what went down. "Ash, you okay?"

I  looked up to see Luke giving me a concerned look. "Y-yeah. Um, where's Pierre and Zayn?"

"Oh, well uh, Pierre had to leave. Her dad called wanted her home and Zayn left to drop her off there."

I looked back over where our mother's were to see them chatting and laughing having themselves a good time. "I see. Well, they're seemed to have fun. Um, what are they talking about?" I asked curiously.

Luke shrugged. "Don't ask me, I have no idea." We both chuckled. Then i felt a nudge on my arm, I looked to see Luke nodding his head to the side. "Come watch this incredible night with me."

"Sure." I said.

I stood by his side as he leaned forward arms resting on the railing, we found ourselves staring up at the night sky. It looked so beautiful and peaceful. The sky itself looks like a dark beauty wearing diamonds all over. 

"I wonder how many stars are up there." I heard Luke from beside me, breaking the silence between us.

"I don't know. Looks like a zillion of them up there."

"You see that one." He pointed out. "The brightest one."

Thats when i followed his gaze. "Yeah, what about it?" I asked, staring up at it.

"Thats you. The most beautiful one standing out of all the stars in the sky." He turned to me with a smile. "You are beautiful to me, i just thought that you should know."

I swore my heart swell at that. Without a word i leaned my head on his shoulder as he pecked my head and we continued watching the night sky together.


"I'm really happy you stopped by, its been really great having you." Zayn's mother, Trish say as she gave me and my mother a hug. "I want you to drive safely, alright?"
