Good boy Bad boy

Chapter 24

It's been a couple of hours since Luke woke up, everyone seems to be back to normal now talking having a laugh even liz seems to be happier I mean why wouldn't she be her sons going to be okay, I'm over the moon myself I can't believe how close I was to losing him, last night when I went to sleep I woke up having a nightmare, it was about the shooting, but Luke didn't survive in this, "are you alright" Calum says to me squeezing my shoulder, "yeah fine just thinking" I say smiling "Hemming's" the nurse says, "you can go in and see him now he is looking so much better" she says smiling, we all walk into Luke's room, he is now sitting up on the bed watching TV with his legs crossed such a change from what he looked like 4 hours ago, everyone's talking with Luke and laughing, but I find myself leaned on the wall looking out the window thinking again, "can you guys give me and Sam a second" Luke says pulling me out my thoughts, everyone nods and walks out closing the door behind them, Luke pats the spot next to him, I walk over and sit on the bed next to him we have our feet dangling off the edge "so how you been" Luke says "yeah okay" I say looking at my feet "yeah.. so how have you really been" Luke says looking into my eyes, "urm... I tried staying strong for everyone, but I went home for a bit and I got in the shower and broke down" I say letting a few tears drop, I quickly wipe them away, "and I had a nightmare last night I haven't told anyone about it, it was about the shooting but in this you didn't make it and I..." I cry Luke cuddles me close "I nearly lost you" I cry harder into his shirt, "hey hey shhh I'm still here you can't get rid of me that easy" he says laughing a bit, I laugh a tiny bit, "you pushed me out the way" I say wiping the tears away again "I know pretty heroic if you ask me... Nah just joking, I love you I just did what I knew was best" he said I look up at him "I love you so much Luke" I say as I lean in and kiss him, it feels so good to kiss him again "I love you to Sam to the moon and back" Luke says *knock Knock* "come in" Luke says "hey guys sorry to interrupt but nurses are so happy with how your doing their going to let you leave tonight instead of next week" liz says smiling "great I'm so sick of the hospital food, I need a good feed" Luke says I laugh "always thinking of your stomach" me and liz said at the same time, we all laugh.

We spend the rest of the day at hospital with Luke and before we know it, we can all leave Luke included we help Luke out of bed and liz finished off some paperwork, we get in the car and head home, the only instructions from the nurse was no heavy lifting or guitar playing for at least a week but apart from that he was all good, he was pretty much back to his normal self apart from hobbling a bit when he walked, we arrive home and Liz insists me and mum stay the night at her home, mum had to go to work for I bit so I went with Liz and Luke "I'm going to take a shower" Luke says smiling "okay babes" Liz says, Liz is in the kitchen deciding what to make for dinner I take a seat on the breakfast bar "what should we have for dinner" Liz says "what about we cook Luke's favorite" I say "ohh great idea, I can do pasta" Liz says smiling, "I can help if you would like" I say smiling "oh that would be lovely sam" Liz says, i get up and help Liz make dinner I help by cutting up the bacon and making the sauce while Liz cooks the pasta, "oh what's cooking it smells amazing" Luke says coming up behind me "carbonara" I say continuing to stir the pasta source "oii" I say as Luke dips his finger in it "what" he says innocently and kisses my cheek, after a while dinners ready mums back from work and we all sit down to eat, we're all talking, before I know it me and Luke are tucked up in bed together.

"Luke" I screen as I see Luke lying on the floor next to me "don't die please" I cry, next thing I know the heart monitor runs flat I've lost him...

~dream over~

Luke's POV

I wake up feeling Sam fidgeting a lot next to me in bed, "luke" she breathes out "don't die please" she crys, then it hits me she's having a nightmare, "babe, wake up" I whisper shaking her lightly, suddenly she sits up and she's crying and sweating "it's just a dream babe" I say cuddling her and rubbing her hair "I keep seeing him" she says "seeing who babe" I say "the gunman" she says crying "come here" I say pulling her on to my lap, she snuggles into my chest and slowly drifts back to sleep while I whisper songs to her, we need to do something she can't keep having these nightmare I think to myself as a I watch her fall asleep once again.
