Him . Luke Hemmings

Chapter Nine

Luke's POV

"It's so cute how well her and Crystal are getting along," Michael said as I kept my gaze on Isla as she and Crystal were giggling at the bar and drinking. It was good seeing her this happy. I remember when I first laid my eyes on her in the hotel, she seemed happy but not like this. I watched as Isla said something and the two of them burst into a fit of giggles and I finally looked over at Mike.

"Sorry what did you say? I didn't hear you, music's too loud," I said taking a seat next to him in the booth only he rolled his eyes at me.

"Yeah sure, you were watching Isla I'm not dumb Luke," He said shoving me and I laughed a little taking a swig of my beer as Calum and Ashton joined us.

"What are we talking about?"

"Luke's girlfriend," Michael said wiggling his eyebrows suggestively at the other boys. I rolled my eyes feeling a slight blush on my face. Fuck I'm never like this what's happening to me?

"Guys come on she's not my girlfriend," I said before my gaze averted to her at the bar. Her short hair just above her shoulders was straight and her gorgeous blue eyes met mine.  I all of a sudden had no clue what to do so I smiled at her causing her to giggle again and go back to talking to Crystal.

"You clearly want her to be,"

"I only met her last night," I defended placing my now empty beer glass on the table.

"So? Amy and I knew each other for three hours when we decided to date and we've been happy for four months," Calum said with a shrug and Ashton nodded backing him up.

"But it's different," 

"How? You've already slept together? You introduced us to her so you obviously like her, why not give it a go?" Ashton said and I sighed biting my lip and meeting Calum's eyes which softened.

"I just- it's different for me ok? I'm not like you guys I don't get girlfriends you know what happened the only time I did, I can't lose her I like her too much," I admitted and they all gave up causing a somewhat awkward silence. Michael was about to say something but I took my glass and went to the bar for another drink.

"Hey pretty girl," I said in Isla's ear and she spun around on her chair to face me as Crystal made her way to the booth to see Michael.

"Do you want to dance?" She said biting her lip at me and I nodded taking her hand and leading her to the dance floor. She was very tipsy and struggled to stay on her feet so I bought her body close to mine as we swayed to the music together.

"You're so sweet Luke, and cute, you're just perfect," She said resting her head on my shoulder and I blushed combing my hand through her hair. This girl that I was holding in my arms was certainly something. I bit my lip as I pulled back to look at her.

"I really like you Isla," I admitted and she grinned at me kissing me softly before pulling away her eyes drooping a little.

"I really really like you Luke," She said now combing her hands through my hair. It reminded me of the night we spent together and I bit my lip slipping my hand from around her waist to around her ass. She was alert now and smashed our lips together on the dance floor. I knew it wasn't like the hotel and that anybody in this bar could be a fan or just want to make some money for TMZ but I didn't care, I needed her.

"Hotel?" I said pulling away and she nodded at me quickly leading me past the boys as I winked at them, them smiling back at me and nodding understanding what I meant. Calum looked somewhat disappointed but I didn't care. 

We were back at the hotel and in my room. Finally. She slipped off her dress and I bit my lip seeing that she hadn't worn any underwear at all so I groaned out loud at the sight. She was so fucking stunning.

"You look beautiful," I said kissing her slowly as I laid her down on the bed. We'd both sobered up a little now, unlike last night when we were wasted this wasn't messy or rushed. We took our time. She peeled my clothes from me and shoved me down on the bed causing me to smirk and hold out my hands for her.

"Come here pretty girl," I said and she smiled at me crawling so that she straddled me and our lips met in a passionate kiss. This was unlike any other hookup I'd had, soppy I know but damn. There was a fire burning in the pit of my stomach every time we touched, like this morning in the shower but I just thought the water was too hot. We slowed down and ground our hips together and I pulled away to look Isla in the eyes seeing her eyes droop. I thought it was because of the heat of the moment and the pleasure of it all but when she dropped onto my bare chest a few light snores later I realised she'd fallen asleep. I chuckled slowly manoeuvring her next to me and I kissed her forehead lightly before feeling my eyes grow heavy as well. 

I didn't care if we didn't fuck all I cared about was her.

"Luke," I heard her groan and I ran my fingers through her hair slowly.

"Yes Isla," I said and she said something that I never ever would have thought she'd say.

"I lied to you,"
