Luke walked me home after we got on this bus,we joked and laughed but all I could think about was his words back at nandos 'because you don't regret me" he was giving no mixed signals whatsoever,but I didn't want to be as blunt as to ask him if he liked me in that way.
He left to go to the party telling me that he would ring me tomorrow.
Josh was walking out of the door the second I walked up the drive,acting like I wasn't even there he walked straight passed me.I had no dout that he was going to the party where Luke was.
My uncle was in my room sorting out some draws when I got in.I left him to it and went to watch a movie in the living room.
After about two hours of being snuggled up in the couch,the warm fire burning and creating the most amazing woody smell and warming me up whilst I watched a movie my phone kept binging but it was across from me on the other side of the couch and I didn't want to move but the binging was persistant so I hauled my body up clinging the blanket to me to savour any sort of warmth I could and checked my phone.
I had four texts and a missed call from Luke,it must of been pretty urgent because his texts read.
'piper'
'hey piper'
':)'
'pick uppp'
He was obviosly drunk texting but I rang him back just incase.
'HEY PIPER" Luke's loud voice rang through the speaker causing my to jump away from my phone.
'hey,Luke whats wrong?" I asked pausing my movie to hear him better.
"you need to come get me" Luke said,I was confused at first because why would he need me to come get him,he was old enough to look after himself.
"luke I would" i began to speak but Lukes voice cut me off.
"no,no piper you need to" Luke said the loud voices and music making it hard to hear him,but i vaguely picked up what he was saying.
"where are you" I sighed dragging myself up from the couch and walking over to the door and plonking down my phone pressed tightly to my ear so I wouldn't drop it whilst I put my converse on.
"at michael's house" Luke slurred through the phone.
"michael clifford?" I asked,surely it wouldn't be the boy who I sit next to in music class.
"yes thats him" luke answered ,I wouldn't of pegged Michael as the party type but I guess his hair matched his personality.
"okay where does he live?" I asked wiggling the keys to the front door,my uncle didn't seem like the over protectvie type and it was only half ten i'm sure he wouldn't mind.
"who?" Luke asked,his drunken state making him stupid.
"Michael" I said whilst walking down my driveway pulling my coat closer around my body,the cold harsh bitter weather was something I don't think I will ever get used to,its even more worse at night.
"ohhh,he lives near that Ruby girl who you hang round with at school" Luke said,his drunked state not helping at all,I just stood at my drive gobsmaked at how he exspected me to find him.
'I will come get you" I sighed putting the phone down,I had Ruby's number but I just hoped Luke wasn't off his head and actually knew what he was on about.
"hey ruby" I sighed as I sat on the stone wall outside my house.
"hey piper whats up"she replied.
"you live near Michael clifford right?" I asked mentally crossing my fingers.
"yeah he's having a party right now"
