close as strangers ; hemmo

cuatro.

are we wasting time

talking on a broken line

telling you i

haven't seen your face in ages

i feel like we're as close as strangers

"that's crazy, enna! i can't believe you would believe them!" luke yells into the phone. luke and enna were in the middle of an argument. it just started out from enna asking if he was cheating on her. but out of all the stress, luke took it more seriously than he ever would have.

"luke, i didn't say i fucking believed them! i just wanted to make sure you aren't!" sienna argues back. "and there are pictures!"

luke sighs. but his eyes widen when realization struck him. "enna," he sighed. "i was not cheating on you."

"then who was that girl? luke, i thought you-"

"enna," he says more calmly this time. sienna stops, taking a deep breath.

"who is that girl, luke?" she asks slowly, embracing herself for whatever luke's answer was going to be.

"that's one of the songwriters we're working with," luke explains.

"then why were both of you so close to each other?"

"we just didn't want anyone to hear what we were talking about. especially the fans in the cafe."

sienna sighs, not knowing whether to believe him or not. "okay. i believe you."

"can i ask you something, enna?"

"sure," sienna sighs in exhaustion.

"are we wasting time, talking on a broken line?" luke breathes out.

"we are not broken, lucas robert," sienna says sternly. "we are not broken in anyway."

"but i haven't seen your face in ages..."

"luke..."

"we barely talk anymore, enna. we barely facetime or skype or call each other. i feel like i don't even get to know how your days have been going. or how you've been feeling. or, how your likes and dislikes have changed in the past 4 months. i feel like we're as close as strangers."

"are you doing anything saturday night then?" enna asks, suddenly having an idea.

"no. i always lock myself up in the hotel room if i'm not rehearsing or recording or song writing or performing," luke snorts.

"how about a skype dinner date at 8?"

"that would be nice," luke sighs in relief. "we'll have the time to catch up."

"yup," sienna says cheerfully, smiling to herself. "luke, i have to go. it's almost midnight and i have school tomorrow."

"okay, i love you."

"i love you too."
