Chapter Thirty

Luke's POV

I didn't get what was so funny. Luna is literally the most terrifying monster out of each game I played, so what is so funny?

"She's a vampire?" Becca laughs. I nod slowly with my brows furrowed. "How can she be that scary?" Mike suddenly screams, dropping his controller also and pointing at the screen. I gasp when I see it, and knife Luna as quickly as I can but I soon stop as I remember that Ash wanted to kill her because he never got to.

"Yes!" He shouts, standing up and fist pumping. I laugh and clap for him as Luna's icon disappears, indicating we win the level. Becca chuckles but heads upstairs. I give my friends high fives and turn off the console.

Mike takes all of our controllers, shoves them into his bag, and unplugged his Xbox from the television. He carefully piles it into his bag, too, and sits down next to me.

I hear the shower running, Becca must be in there. It falters after ten minutes of Ash rambling on about how he almost killed Major del Millstone and how Calum ruined it by killing him himself.

"Be right back," I say and run up the stairs. I knock on the bedroom door, Bec opens it in a minute with her hair in a pony tail, wearing one of my black t-shirts and spandex shorts that I wish she wouldn't wear in front of Ashton, Calum, and especially Mike. I lean down to kiss her forehead which makes her smile.

"What did you do today?" I ask and grab her hand, leading her back downstairs.

"We shopped, ate, talked to Hunter," She says, rolling her eyes when I clench my jaw at the mention of Hunter. "We got our nails done too," she holds up her hand for me to see, her nails are painted pale blue and there are fiery black designs on some.

"Nice," I say at the bottom of the stairs. I hear my friends laugh, and when we enter the living room Mike is blushing cherry red. Becca sits next to him, in between him and Ash, who wraps his arm around her shoulder in a friendly way. I smile and sit back down next to Mike and Calum.

"What did you guys do all day?" Bec asks.

"We had lunch, listened to music, played a game of truths, then started playing Death Symbol," Ashton concludes. "I almost killed Major del Millstone, but Calum stepped up and did it himself," he adds, playfully glaring at Cal. He chuckles and leans against the back of the couch.

It's 5:30, Becca stands up with panic in her eyes. "Shit!" She says and runs upstairs. I raise one brow and walk to the bottom of the stairs.

"What's up with you?" I call up to her.

"We have to meet Jamie in half an hour!"

"Shit!" I repeat and run upstairs as well. Becca rummages through the closet to grab some clothes while I pick some out of the dresser. "Sorry guys!" I shout through the door, realising that the guys are still here.

I turn around and Becca is wearing a nice pair of jeans, along with a red shirt and black flats. Wow, she gets dressed quickly. She runs into our bathroom and closes the door, I hear her searching for something in a drawer. I pull on the jeans I found and remain topless, I don't have any good shirts to wear so I run downstairs. Mike gives me a weird look.

"Any of you have nice shirts?" I ask, panting.

"No, why?" Ash says, Calum shakes his head.

"I gotta meet with a lawyer tonight in 20 minutes," I say and run a hand over my hair nervously.

"Got one!" Becca shouts from up stairs so I wave to the guys and rush up to my room. She hands me a white buttoned shirt that I didn't even known I had with me, but I put it on and look in the mirror.
