Luke's POV

I let Lia finish crying into my shirt as I rubbed her back.

Once she finished I said "Lia what did he do?"

"He-he told me he was m-moving to....London."she said another tear escaping her eye.

I clenched up with anger. How could he do this to my baby?

"LeLe I'm so so sorry. I will be here for you. I can't believe he did this to you! Do you want me to beat him up?" I said trying to lighten the mood.

She giggled and said "No Lukey. Thanks for letting me ruin your shirt."

"It's fine. Wanna have a movie night/sleepover?" I said.

We always had sleepovers when we were sad about something or just bored.

"Definitely. Lemme call my mom and tell her I'm staying here." she said.

She went into the kitchen to talk to her mom and came out a few minutes later.

"Okay well it's pretty late. Oh I don't have any clothes dangit!" she said.

"You can just borrow some of mine." I said.

We went upstairs and I gave her a t-shirt and some old basketball shorts.

"You can go downstairs. I'm going to change in your bathroom." she said.

I went downstairs and picked out Mean Girls to watch first and got a couple of blankets out for us.

I saw her coming down the stairs and couldn't help but stare. She looked so perfect in my clothes. She was so cute.

"Do I look bad?" She said, noticing that I was staring at her.

"No you actually look amazing." I said blushing as I realized what I just said.

She blushed but then quickly looked down and sat on the couch with me. I went into the kitchen and made popcorn and came back out to see Lia all cuddled up in the blankets.

"Hey let me in." I said.

She giggled and sat up and then I sat down and she layed on my lap. I smiled down at her and she started watching the movie.

I started playing with her hair because it was insanely soft and I have seen Mean Girls so many times.

••••••••••••

Halfway into the movie I could hear soft snores coming from Lia. I carefully turned off the movie and carried her upstairs to my room.

As I was going to go back downstairs and sleep on the couch I felt a small hand grab my wrist.

"Luke..Will you stay with me?" she said quietly.

I smiled and nodded.

I took off my shirt and put some basketball shorts on and got in bed with her. I noticed that she was on the edge of the bed, not knowing how close she could get to me.

I grabbed her waist and pulled her towards me and put my arms around her. I felt her smile into my chest and I drifted off to sleep.

Lia's POV (the next morning)

I woke up to the sunlight shining through the window right on me. I wanted to get up but when I tried I found that I was wrapped in a tight embrace and couldn't get out.

"Luke."

No response.

"Luke. Luke. Lukey. Lucifer. Lucas. Luke. Hemmo. Hemmings. Robert. Roberto." I said, poking him every time I called him a new name.

He groaned.

"Lia shut up." Luke said grumpily.

"Let me free!" I said giggling.

"Nope." said Luke smirking.

I finally managed to pry one of his arms off me and slipped out of his grasp.

He grabbed my hand as I was walking away.

"LeLe I wanna cuddle." Luke said giving me his puppy dog face.

I smiled and said "Fine." and got back in bed. I cuddled into his chest.

"I'll always be here for you. You know that right?" he said.

"Yes, Lukey." she said.

A few minutes later I broke the silence by giggling and saying "I'm gonna be a forever alone-cat lady."

He chuckled and said "No that will not happen. Any guy would be lucky to have you. I don't know why Aaron even let you go."

I blushed and hid my face in his neck and said "I'm so over him. He's such a jerk for not telling me right when he found out he was moving."

"Hey there's still an option for me to beat him up. He broke my favorite girl's heart." Luke said smiling.

I smiled but then quickly frowned knowing that he meant as his best friend.

"No I don't think that will help any Lukey. But I'm fine now thanks to you." I smiled.

I don't know how I got over Aaron so fast. I guess I never really truly loved him. It was Luke all along.

"I'm gonna go make breakfast. I'm starving." I said giggling after my stomach growled.

"I'll help!" Luke said excitedly.

We got out off bed and went downstairs to the kitchen. I didn't see his mom anywhere so I guess she was at work.

"Okay so I'm assuming you want to make pancakes?" Luke said grinning.

"Yup" I said giving him a big grin back.

I started getting all the ingredients for the pancakes then read the instructions.

As I was concentrating on reading I felt a whole handful of flour thrown at me.

"You did not." I said turning around glaring at Luke.

"Oh but I did." Luke said chuckling.

Right as he said that I broke an egg over his head.

He looked shocked at first then did the same to me.

We got into a full-on food fight with all the ingredients.

Once it was over, we were on the ground laughing our heads off.

"You look so bad." Luke said laughing as he pulled eggshells out of my hair.

"Hey you don't look too good yourself, mister." I said tapping him on the nose.

I took a selfie with Luke and posted it on Instagram to show people our chaotic food fight.

We ended up microwaving frozen waffles and eating those. Then we cleaned up the kitchen and both got showers.

"Luke I'm going shopping with Lina, Marisa, and Deanna today so I gotta go. Walk me out?" I said.

"Yea sure." Luke said.

I grabbed all my stuff and Luke and I walked out to my car.

"Luke thank you so much for listening to my stupid drama and making me feel all better." I said kissing him on the cheek.

He blushed and look stunned and I smiled and looked at the ground.

"You're welcome." he mumbled still blushing.

I got in and waved to him and drove off. He watched me drive off and went inside.

He seriously helped me so much with all the Aaron stuff and I owe him. I love him with all my heart and it breaks knowing that he doesn't feel the same way.

Sorry this was such a bad chapter guys! It was so boring, but I promise the next one will be way better! Xx. Lydia
