28) If You Don't Know

~Brooklyn

I found myself in Luke's presence telling him all about the situation with Calum and I.

He sits back on his couch, with a grin on his face.

"What?" I asked. "This isn't funny"

His grin grows bigger.

"You should have listened to me from the beginning"

"I should have? Huh" I said sarcastically. "Why? When you constantly called me a bitch, and other narcissistic words. Also you telling Calum that he can find someone better, totally helps the situation"

"Says the person who came to me about Calum"

"I-I" I paused.

"Exactly"

"I just don't know what to do anymore. " I said. "I really like him, and I don't think he feels the same way, no wait. I know he likes me I just don't think he's ready, or, no-"

"Brooklyn, stop rambling." Luke said, now sitting up on the couch.

"Sorry" I mumble

"Come here" Luke said patting the spot next to him on the couch.

I slowly walk over towards him, and sit a couple inches away.

"Why do you say the things you do?" I ask

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, about me. Why? I've done nothing wrong to you, and you hate me"

"I just don't like seeing Calum with someone else" He said looking into my eyes.

"What are you? His boyfriend" I chuckled.

"Shut up" He ran his fingers through his hair. "I think you know what I mean"

"Oh" I say. "About Quinn, don't you all fucking realize she's dead, and she's never coming back"

"That was harsh"

"I realize that" I instantly regret saying that to Luke.

"He was so happy with her." He paused. "But now, he rarely even smiles. But when he does it's with you"

"So why try and take that away from us?"

"I-I don't know Brooke"

"Don't call me that" I roll my eyes.

"Sorry. Brooklyn"

"H-he said I was his replacement Luke." I stutter. "I know you told him that"

He lets out a long sigh.

"I feel like he really means it" I paused. "I just feel it"

"He doesn't Brooklyn, you know that"

"How am I supposed to believe what you said when you made him believe all of those shit load lies?" I questioned

"He doesn't actually believe it, you know?"

"No, I don't fucking know. If I new, I wouldn't be talking to you"

"He's just not in love with you, Brooklyn, probably not for a little while" Luke checks his phone, and then back at me.

"Luke" I said frustratedly. "I need him right now, and it may not seem like it. But I do"

"I know Brooklyn"

"You don't know how it feels to love someone, and not have them love you back. You just don't"

Luke looked at me, and opened his mouth to speak but slowly closed it.
