A Second Chance // Luke Hemmings

two

"I will see you on Thursday your mom said she is working so I will come get you from the airport ok!" michael said pulling me into a hug and planting a quick kiss on my lips. we had gotten used to the fact that his visits where only for 3 days at the most so this was a regular thing.

"trust my mum to be working the day j come home. oh and dont forget to stop by your mums house on the way to the airport" I shouted to him as he walked to his rental car and headed off. I grabbed a glass of apple juice and walked up stairs to continue packing up my things.  I had just finished the bath room and most of the kitchen so I was going to start on my bedroom. I herd my phone vibrate so quickly grabbed it and sat on my bed.

unknown

i read on the screen before swiping it to answer.

"hello?" 

"hi um carter its uh luke."

"oh well hi uhh can I ask why your calling?"

"well I know you come back in a couple days and I no you mom is working so I thought I could come get you from the airport to save you getting a taxi"

shit shit shit shit. what was I to tell him. 'sorry michael is picking me up because we have been dating the last year'

" you really dont have to its fine really. plus im sure you have better things to do like hang out with jessica."

" well actual me and her haven't been together for a couple months so...."

"listen luke its fine I will get a taxi thank you for offering tho and  I'm sorry about Jessica" i really wasn't sorry at all

" I hated her its stupid management. and because of them I lost the most amazing thing in my life. you."

" luke I have to go I will see you in a couple days."

"okay just do me a favour listen to 98.5 on the radio at 7 please I need you to hear something."

and with that I hung up not even wanting to hear what else he had to say. did that mean that he still liked me , no it couldn't and beside I'm with Micheal I lov. I stopped myself truth was I didn't LOVE Michael I just really liked him. I couldn't bring myself to say love to anyone but Luke. Luke, the guy who tore my heart out and served it to me on a silver plate. luke the man I was so maddly inlove with before but now. now I had michael and that all had changed. I was so confused so I turned on the radio waiting for whatever Luke wanted me to hear and started packing hoping to take my mind of things.

I had cleared about half of my room and it was getting late so I decided to clear under my bed and call it a night. I pulled out a white box with flowers on it and sat it on my bed. I slowly opened the lid and revealed pictures and ornaments.

next we have luke, ashton and calum from 5sos of summer here to preform their new song live in the studio.

"this song is called close as strangers and this is dedicated to well she knows who she is." I recognise lukes voice. was he talking to me?

(a / n listen to close as strangers by 5sos)

The  music started and I began to listen the words describing how I felt about everything. while scanning through some pictures and laughing at most of them I spotted a piece of paper with a picture attached I  picked it up and read the back.

together forever,  never apart

maybe in distance , but never in heart.

I turned it over to reveal a picture of me and luke with our heads pressed together en-front of a sunset in our backyard I remembered the day this was taken.

memory....

"luke seriously stop" I said shouting at him for soaking me with a hose.

" awe did I get you cold baby girl. come here" he said while walking over to me and pulling me into an embrace. we pulled back slightly and I lent my forehead on his.

" no matter where you go I will always love you carter. together forever,  never apart, maybe in distance but never in heart. " we turned when we herd the snap of a camera. it was calum and ashton pretending to be directors of a romantic movie

"gees get a room"  they both shouted

" I love you to luke."

I let a few tears slip onto the picture as I remembered everything that I had been trying to forget for 2 years. I stopped and listened to the music. lukes voice echoed in my ears and I wished right then I could tell him that I missed him. a flush of anger came over me. I stood up  ripping the photo in my hands and shoving it into the bin. I laid back down onto my bed and let a few tears form in my eyes before they slipped down my face and hit the pillow. I did want to move on I wanted to forget him. we were strangers now everything had changed weather I liked it or not. I listened to the lyrics

wont give up even though it hurts so much.

I let a few more tears slip as I listen to his voice and wondered what he was thinking.

on the phone I tell that you wanna move

on through the tears I can hear that I

shouldnt have gone everyday it get harder

to stay away from you.

I couldnt help but think what if...the music continued as wiped my eyes. it had been 2 years id be going home in 3 days everything had changed whether I liked it or not but one thing was for sure. i still had feelings for luke hemmings...
