Chapter 3

Luke carried on staring at us, his eyes darting from Beau to me to Beau and finally back to me again. A feeling of guilt swirled violently in my stomach. After two days I’d nearly kissed one person and kissed another? I felt like the worst person in the world. I felt Beau’s arm snake around my waist, out of Luke’s sight. 

“So you don’t want to kiss me, but 30 seconds later you have your tongue down my brother’s throat?” Luke said angrily, the fury burning through his voice. 

“I’m sorry Luke – I don’t even know what I was doing…” I uttered truthfully, but there were no words that could salvage this situation. 

“Luke, mate. Don’t get angry…” Beau whispered, but confidently enough for Luke to hear. Luke shot him a look as if to say ‘don’t tell me not to get angry!’

“I should go…” I said quietly, my face glued to the floor. 

“I think you should too!” Luke bellowed, biting his lip irritably. Beau’s arm fell from my waist as I picked up my bag before quickly opening the door and closing it behind me. I began to run down the path of their house, tears stinging in the back of my eyes. But soon enough I just let them fall. I thought Australia was going to be somewhere where I would get away from boy drama?

*Luke’s P.O.V*

“You always do this Beau!” I screamed just as Kalli left. “Every time a girl even associates herself with me you go and kiss her!”

“That’s not true!” He said back. “And besides, you don’t like Kalli do you?” He questioned, his voice softening. 

“No! She’s just a friend,” I paused. “Well was – she’s not exactly gonna wanna speak to me know is she?” I questioned rhetorically. Beau simply scoffed and stumbled out the door. 

I sat on one of the steps, running my fingers through my hair. Why had I even tried to kiss her? I thought to myself – the answer not coming to my mind. She’d trusted me enough to tell me that she doesn’t trust people and then I go and do that? I guess I overreacted – it’s not like we’re together so if she wants to go and kiss Beau she can. I don’t care.

*Back to Kalli’s P.O.V*

I lay back on my bed unable to get to sleep. I’d actually grown to like Luke as a friend – but I couldn’t help but wonder if he thought I was just another one of those girls who want to use him for his popularity? I sighed loudly in confusion before feeling my phone buzz from my pockets. A text from an unknown number:

‘Hey Kalli, I pinched your number from Luke’s phone lol… I’m really sorry about what happened earlier. Let me make it up to u? p.s you’re a good kisser;) lol – beau xx’

I laughed dryly, quickly typing a reply:

‘It’s not your fault – it’s mine really lol :) what like a date?:p you’re not to bad urself! Hehe xx’

Almost instantly I got a reply:

‘ maybe ;) text me your address and I’ll pick u up at 7 if that’s ok with u? xx’

I felt my stomach flutter; a date with Beau Brooks? I felt my cheeks flush simply at the thought. 

‘that’s great with me ;) xx’

I put my phone down, letting out a deep breath. But I couldn’t help but feel slightly guilty…

I heard my phone buzz  again, expecting it to be Beau, but it wasn’t. It was Luke: 

‘I need to speak to you. Can you come over tomorrow at 2?’

‘Sure.’ -I replied, starting to feel nerves flutter in my stomach. I placed my phone down and closed my eyes; tomorrow was going to be interesting.

It was 1.50pm and I was slightly early to Luke’s but I was sure he wouldn’t mind. I rapped on the door 3 times, waiting anxiously for a reply. 

“Hi.” Luke said calmly, gesturing for me to come inside. 

I followed him in, a light smile on my face. “Hey,” I replied.

I sat beside him on his bed, a silence filling the room. 

“I’m sorry.” Luke said unexpectedly; a true look of remorse on his face. “I really don’t know why I tried to kiss you…” He trailed off. “Since I became popular because of the Janoskians a lot of girls are nice to me purely because of that and…” He stopped talking. “I now know that you’re not like them.” He smiled. 

“You shouldn’t apologise.” I told him. “I shouldn’t have kissed Beau – I was upset because I’d just told you that I don’t really trust people and then you did that…” I laughed lightly. 

“Don’t be sorry because you kissed Beau!” He told me with a smile. “I overreacted.” He said, his face falling to a more serious expression. “Girls always try and get with me, but it’s actually Beau who they want…never me.” He said with a saddened expression. 

I pulled him into my arms in an instant; it wasn’t really like me to do something like that, but I couldn’t help but feel bad. He placed his arms around my waist, “Don’t say that, there are plenty of girls that would be lucky to have you!” I whispered into his ear. 

He pulled away, a smile now on his face, “You think so?” I nodded. “I want us to be friends Kalli.” He told me, his lips opening again to speak but he closed them quickly. 

“Me too Luke.” I smiled. “I have something to tell, well ask you.” I said nervously, my voice quivering slightly. 

“Go on.” He said, his eyebrows furrowing slightly. 

“Beau asked me out on a date.” I said simply. Luke began to fiddle with his hands on his lap. “I wanted to know if you’re okay with it…because if you’re not I won’t-“ 

He interrupted me, “Of course I don’t mind.” He smiled, pulling me into a hug again. 

*Luke’s P.O.V*

I don’t mind. Don’t I?
