Unexpected || Luke Hemmings

Chapter 32

"Tell me what happened." Sam and I find some time alone, just the two of us, in her house.

I know that we have our little clique now and we're more than just friends, we're all best friends now. The four boys, even if Luke and I are still having a problem, Mia, Sam and I are always together. Luke still joins us at lunch breaks since obviously Selena wouldn't be around until after class so he has no choice but to hang out with us. No, I said it in a wrong way. He's still best friends with the other three, of course, even if we broke up.

I'm glad that Luke left Michael alone. My only goal was to do my revenge, but I'm also hoping that Luke wouldn't do something to hurt Michael. Since it all happened according to my plan, everything was perfect. Though you can feel the slight tension between the two of them the next day after that but it quickly faded away because... they're best friends.

But Sam is still my main best friend. She's my first friend I got and she means a lot to me. I'm not saying that I have my favorite in our little clique. My point is sometimes, we still need some time alone. Just the two of us and I'm happy that the other lads gave us that chance.

"Okay." Sam says as she shifts on the couch, facing me. "So I asked my parents that night after that lunch if I can invite Calum for dinner in the next two days and they agreed. So the dinner happened. Of course, there are a few talks and questions about Calum until we decided that it was time to tell them. I told them about it then Calum said that he will be there for me. My mom almost cried, I swear to God, and my father was speechless at first, but I guess they just realized that they can't do anything about it anymore since it's there. The baby's already here. So they're cool about it. God, I don't know why it took me so long to tell them about this. If I only knew their reactions would be like this."

"How does it feel?" I ask her as I tuck my foot under my leg. "That you don't have anything to worry anymore?"

She frowns. "Care, come on. Don't do this."

"I saw the necklace he gave me when he asked me to be his girlfriend." I smile, remembering that night at the party. I can still feel how loud the beat of my heart was when I found out that it was real, that he came back from New York for me. "I thought everything's finally okay and that I'm already in the process of moving on, but when I saw the necklace, it felt like all the memories and feelings ran back to me. I don't know. I don't know how else to describe it."

"Aww." She coos as she moves closer to me. "Come on. I don't want you to be sad. I have an idea."

"What?" I ask her, but she's already fishing her phone out of her pocket then starts calling someone.

"Baby." She greets with a grin in her face. Surely it's Calum. "I'm bored, are you guys free tonight? Yeah, I mean you and the other boys. Well, let's meet up at 6pm here in my house. How does laser tag sounds to you, babe?"

I can't find the 'fun' part in what we're about to do tonight. I'm hundred percent sure that Sam knows that I'm sad because of Luke but still, here is Luke with his oh-very lovely girlfriend and we're all about to play laser tag as happy best friends. Being in the same room with Luke especially a Luke Hemmings with his girlfriend, or fiance whatever, is the last thing I want to happen, but the funny thing is, my own best friend thought that this is a great idea. Let's give this a shot. As if I have a choice.

"So guys." Sam starts as she clasps her hands together. A thing she always does when she's about to say something. "There's this place I know where they have a laser tag game and I've been dying to play it with you guys since the first time I found out about it. So we'll be separated into two groups, four people in each. So who's with who?"
