I'm Not Fine / L.H. \

Chapter 12

*Calum's POV*

"Have you decided what you want?" I ask Angel who was just a little nervous about this whole tattoo thing.

"Yeah." She says smiling nervously.

Two hours later we pull back into the hotel parking lot. As we enter the elevator I look down at her bandaged wrist.

"Do you like it?" Ask as she peeks away the gauge to reveal the music notes etched into her skin with black ink.

"I love it." She says. When she turns I notice another small bandage behind her ear.

"Wait a minute I didn't know you got a second one!" I exclaim giving her a look. "What is it."

She peels away the small bandage and blushes a light pink.

"Don't laugh I thought long and hard about this." She wants me as she turns and pulls her ear back so I can see it.

In small black in are two letters 'l.h.' with a small heart next to them. I'm confused for a second but the I dawns in me. Luke Hemmings.

"Angel that's perfect! Does he know?" I ask

"No it's a stories for our 3 month anniversary tomorrow." She answers happily.

"He's going to love it I promise! What are you guys doing?"

"Luke said we would do something special which means he doesn't plan on telling me! But I did get him something else. I just ordered it today after we celebrate my birthday." She says smiling

"Well now you have to tell me what it is!!" I say

She takes her phone out and shows me a picture. It's just a simple silver ring with the words 'I Promise' written in the same cursive as the words on her ring.

"I'm going to pick it up tomorrow and out it on a chain so he can wear it as a necklace if he wants."

"I think it's perfect Angel!" I tell her.

We arrive back at our rooms and its close to seven o'clock. We wanted to take her out but she said her and Liz were having a girls night.

"Thanks Calum this was the best birthday ever." She hugs me and I gladly hug her back.

"Your welcome Angel. You've always been like a little sister to me. Love you." I say as she walks through the doors if Liz's room.

"Love you too Cal!" She says back.

*Angels POV*

Liz and I enjoyed a night of movies, ice cream, and popcorn. She made me tell her every detail of Luke and I's relationship and at one lot we were both crying.

"Liz I forgot to show you what I got with Cal today!" I say excitedly.

"Oh no I don't know if I'm ready for this!" She says accruing very motherly.

I just laugh an stick out my wrist. She decides that she loves and and approves.

"There's one more. It's my favorite of the two." I look at the ground before sitting in front of her and pulling my ear back to reveal the small letters long with the heart.

I hear her gasp and my stomach flip flops. What if she hates it? It's her sons initials etched forever on my skin! I can't take it back! Oh crap now what do I do?!

I turn around ready to tell her that I'm sorry but she envelops me in a hug.

"Darling it is absolutely perfect. Has Luke seen it?" She asks surprising me with her answer.

"Thank you and no he hasn't. It a sulfide for our 3 month anniversary and because we made promises today and this is something I can't take back and I never plan to." I say

"I'm so proud if you two. You've both grown up into amazing young adults. Even with the hard times you've pulled through even stronger than before." Liz wipes a tear from her eye.

We talk a littler longer and before we know it it's almost 2 o'clock in the morning.

"Wow Liz we should probably get to bed I have a date with Luke tomorrow. You're coming to help me get ready right?" I say

"Of course i am! Goodnight sweetheart." She says hugging me before I exit her room and enter mine own.

I enter as quietly as I can knowing that Luke is asleep. As silently as possible I creep across the carpeted floor to the bathroom. I brush through my tangled blind hair and remove the minimal makeup that is on my face. I pull on a pair of short athletic shirts and one of Luke's shirts. It's way to big and covers the shorts completely.

As I walk back into the room I notice the long figure occupying the queen sized bed in the middle if the room. I walk to the bed and lay down next to him. The curtain is pulled back from the window just enough to where it illuminates the face of the blond headed boy lying next to me.

My fingers okay with the ends of his hair brushing them back from his forehead. I don't know how long I lay there playing with his hair and admiring every feature if his perfect face, but now I realize there is a small smile playing in his lips.

"Luke Hemmings how long have you been awake?" I scold

"Long enough." He says as his eyes flutter open. "You got in late I know but why aren't you asleep already?"

"I've just been thinking." I whisper

"About what?" He questions

"Why me? You could have any girl in this entire world and you chose me." I whisker to him out faces nearly inches apart.

"Because your the only girl that ha ever made my hear pound like it does every morning when I wake up next to you. Your the only one that can make me smile just by walking into the room. I love you more than life itself and I have since I was young and stupid. Just believe me when I say that I will never leave you. I promise." He whispers leaving little kisses all over my face. I giggle a bit.

"Do you pinky promise." I say putting up my pinky finger.

"I pinky promise." He whispers back locking his pinky with mine.

Satisfied I curl up into him and lay my head in his chest so I can hear his heart beating. I slowly fall asleep to the faint pounding.
