I woke up with a major headache. All the memories from last night started popping in my head. I groaned at the thought of them.

I was so fucking stupid.

The moments with Kat flooded in my brain. Every single detail. I almost gag at her doings. As sit on the bed for a while, glad that it's a Saturday and there was no school. After a couple minutes, I get up from my warm comfortable bed and into the cold air of my room. I shiver at the piercing feeling of the coldness. I walk into the restroom. As soon as I see myself in the mirror, I gasp at the marks on my neck. Two red and purple hickeys were placed on the right side of my neck. It'll be easy for anyone to notice them.

Kat.

She was the one who did them. I start to panick. What if Liz and Andrew see them? What do I say? After contemplating what I would do, I decide just to cover them with my hand or just keep face the other way. I doubt it would work for long though.

I grab some clothes from my bag and go to the shower. I turn the shower head but no water comes out. I turn it more but still nothing comes out.

Stupid American showers. I mentally pout.

I head to Luke bedroom door and knock on it. I wait about 2 minutes before he answers it. He opens the door with droopy eyes and only has his underwear on, exposing his pale body.

"Oh sorry to wake you, but how do I turn on the shower?" I question.

"Um, you have to pull the shower head out then turn it to the right." His raspy voice echoed through my head, causing butterflies in my stomach.

"Thanks." I say as I turn my head to leave, but was stopped by Luke grabbing my wrist and pulling me back.

"What's that?" He points to my neck.

Fuck.

"Um, what is w-what?" I stutter. I mentally curse in a panick.

He pulls me into his room and shuts the door behind him.

"Are those hickeys?" He whispers yells.

"Uhh..y-um yeah." I head drops in embarrassment.

"My parents can't see that!"

"I don't know what to do about them. I don't have anything to cover them up with." I reply.

"Oh my god, Ashton!" He says,"wait I think I have an idea. Stay in here, I'll be right back."

As I watch Luke walk out of the door, I manage to sit on his computer desk chair. After wondering what he was getting, he walks in with a tube full of skin colored liquid.

"Here, get up." He tells me and I obey. He grabs my face and gently pushes it to the side, exposing my neck.

"What is that stuff?" I interrogated as he examines the marks.

"Um, I thinks it's called concealer. My mom wears it." He retorts. He opens the tube and pumps it a couple of times before placing the brush thing on my neck. I jumped as the liquid was rubbed on my skin.

"Cold?" He chuckles while he rubs the liquid on the hickeys.

"Kinda. Yeah." I manage to speak. I feel myself tense up under Luke's touch.

Why I does he have this effect on me? I thought.

After Luke was done, he put the concealer on his nightstand.

"So, uhh did you like..you know.. Get laid last night?" He smiles.

"N-no!" I squeak.

"Oh then what happened?" He wondered.

"Um, it's a long story, I gotta go! Bye." Then I'm out the door. I close his door behind me and sigh in relief. I was and am not planning on telling Luke what happened with Kat. Ever. I go to my room bathroom again and groan because I was supposed to take a shower. But I can't now or the stuff will wash off. I go back in my room and probably will stay there for the rest of the day.
