Luke's POV:
I didn't hear the front door creep open until 4:00 this morning. I had laid in bed all by myself, it's becoming a regular thing. I didn't know whether to cry because he was gone so long and I didn't know what he was up to or cry because he was finally home, calm and I could snuggle up to him. I surprised myself when I did neither. I just laid there emotionless, watching as he slowly creeped into my bedroom. Closing my eyes so he wouldn't know that I was awake.
I felt the bed dip as he leaned over top of me and kissed me softly on the cheek. I wanted to push him away, tell him off for leaving the way he did.
When he walked away, I watched as he started taking his clothes off...leaving his boxers on of course. He wasn't one to sleep nude for some reason.
I slowly got out of bed, walking up behind him as he threw his clothes in the corner. When he turned around he let out a scream and slapped my chest. I'm sure it would of been my face if I was shorter.
" what the hell, Luke?! You scared me ". He yelled, placing a hand over his chest.
I shook my head as i turned our bedroom light on and watched as he looked at me with confusion.
" we need to talk ", I started off. Scratching the back of my neck awkwardly. I didn't know how to bring up this situation without angering him.
Louie just smiled as he came closer and pecked my lips and ran his hands all the way up underneath my shirt.
" baby, we don't need to talk tonight. There's nothing to talk about ". He whispered, removing his hands as he went to slip away and crawl into bed.
Before he got away, I grabbed his wrist and turned him around.
" No, I'm tired of this weird behavior of yours...I just want to talk it out. That's all I ask".
I searched his eyes as they went from a soft green to hard black voids once again. He yanked his arm from me as he went to the corner where he threw his clothes.
" you know, I was willing to let tonight go. You've been questioning me on every little thing I do! I should...I should- ". He was so frustrated that he didn't know what to say.
He stared at me with such intense anger that felt all to familiar. He grabbed his clothes off the ground and started tugging them back on. My mind went blank, I couldn't let him leave. I didn't want him to leave me again. I knew what I was about to do everything I didn't want to, but I just couldn't let him leave. Not again!
" No, I'm sorry! Please don't go! I won't...I won't ask or say anything again. Please just don't leave ". I begged, grabbing his clothes out of his hands and throwing them behind me.
" Luke ". He warned, breathing in sharply as he glared at me.
" No, I'm sorry. Just..don't go ".
" fine, I won't...I just...I need space ". He mumbled.
" why? Why do you always run away from your problems instead of handling them? You did this in school...you were gonna take your life ". I knew I was digging myself a bigger hole but I didn't give a damn anymore...as long as he is still here I'm going to run my mouth.
" that is none of your damn business, if I were to tell you the real reason why...you'd leave me". He hung his head down and stared at the floor.
I went from being angry to being filled with sympathy way to fast. I walked over to him and lifted his chin up.
" I'd never leave, you should know this by now. I've given up plenty of things to be with you and I'm not doing it for nothing. We just need to talk some things out, okay? ". A smile grew on my face as his eyes went back to their usual soft green...but that was it.
Louie sighed and ran a hand threw his hair as he shook his head. He took a deep breath before pushing past me and getting into the bed. I just stood there, not knowing what to do. The same arguments happen every week, I can't do this anymore. Louie is hiding things from me and it's not right, then he goes and gets mad at me when I question him. I've got to do something. But for tonight, I'll keep quiet and not ask again.
I turned off the lights and crawled back into bed, sleeping on the far side of the bed away from Louie. It didn't matter, Louie does the same to me every other night. There's always a space in between us and there always will be.
I was almost asleep when I felt Louie shift and move closer to me. I could feel his breath on my ear as his arms wrapped around me. A smile formed on my face as he leaned closer, whispering something into my ear but I was to deep into my sleep to be able to register what he said.
" you know, I wasn't going to take my life. I was waiting for the perfect time to take yours. You've got the answers you've been looking for. Sweet dreams, love. Because when you wake up...it'll be a living nightmare ".
