never letting go || lrh

Hanging out with rockstars.

The next morning when I woke up, I jumped out of bed. It was 9:30, and we were meeting the boys in an hour and a half.

I ran to my shower, washed my hair, stumbled out, dried my hair. I decided to wear something casual but chic. I slapped on some green nail varnish, and slipped on my skinnies and a beige jumper. I did my makeup lightly. I grabbed my purse, and was out the door in no time. There was no way in hell I would be late today. It was almost eleven, and I rang Ay.

"Hey Ay, are you there?" I asked, hoping they weren't there yet.

"Yup, the boys aren't here though." She answered. "Where are you anyway?"

"I'm walking up now, I'll be there in a second." I promised.

"Okay, hurry I feel like an idiot." She moaned and I hung up. 30 seconds later I arrived, I saw Ay looking absolutely stunning. She wore a tight light pink dress that showed off her beautiful curves,  and had accessorized everything to perfection. 

"Wow, if you don't attract Luke like that, I don't know who will, you look perfect!" I said hugging her tight. I felt slightly out of place. I mean, what if the guys came up looking all smart? I just had a jumper and jeans on. I was hoping, and as I saw the familiar SUV park, the excitement to see them again rose in my throat, I was squealing, but only Ay could hear me. She rolled her eyes at me and walked up to the boys. She hugged quickly Ash and Mike, and she stayed a little longer hugging Luke than she should have. She then moved on to Cal, and hugged him briefly. I said hello in the same order, starting with the most awkward. I got on my tippy-toes to put my arms around Ash's neck and he pulled me tight towards him. I smiled and walked over to Mikey. I don't know why Ashton reminded me of him but I didn't like it. Whenever I saw Ash, he came back to my memory, and I could almost always feel a panick attack coming along. 

Anyway, I hugged Mike and Calum, keeping Luke for last because he was talking to Aylin. As I walked up to them, Luke stopped talking and hugged me tighter than I had ever been held, and kissed my cheek lightly, leaving it with a burning sensation. I smiled at him.

"You look amazing." He said, looking me up and down. 

"Well thanks, you don't look too bad yourself Mr. Hemmings." I winked and chuckled. I heard Ay sigh and walk off, but I was to busy staring at Luke's lips. Damn, that lip ring.

"Who's ready for some food?" Calum said, laying his hand on my back, braking my gaze at Luke. I smiled at him and nodded.

We walked into Nando's, and it was empty, because of the early time we had gotten there. We sat in a booth, me next to Luke who was next to Michael, and in front of us were Ash, Cal and Ay. 

"Hi my name's Cristine, I'll be your waitress today..." She drifted off, realising who she was talking to. Yet, she kept it professional. "Would you guys like to order any drinks?

"I'll have lemonade please." Ay said. I asked for the same thing, and the boys all asked for Coke. The waitress walked of, nodding.

"Do you always get recognised like this when you go out?" Ay asked. 

"Yeah, we've sort of gotten used to it now, I guess." Calum said, smiling. He was talking about fans, how he loved meeting them or something or other, but I couldn't concentrate. Luke had reached for my hand under the table. An electric choc ran through me. I liked it. I saw him grin from the corner of my eye, and I couldn't help a smile. He squeezed my hand from time to time during the meal, sending more and more shocks through my body. Everytime felt different, it was never the same. 

We finished our meals, and walked out the restaurant. Girls were waiting there, their iPhones out, ready for a picture. Luke's grip on my hand tightened, and all the boys were suddenly covered in girls screaming. They pushed so hard they broke my grip with Luke's hand. I was pushed out of the circle, and joined Ay who was looking annoyed. 

"What the hell Mad? I thought you said you would back off?" She whisper-yelled. "I don't kow why I believed you in the first place."

"Woah there, Aylin, I'm sorry, I'm just drawn to him, okay? I'll back off, let me just find a reason to, so I can tell him."

"I love you" She said.

"I love you too." I answered.

When the boys were done with their fans, they walked back over to us. They smiled and we smiled back.

"Do you guys wanna come back to our place?" Mike offered. 

"Sure, why not?" Ay said. she played it cool, but I knew that deep down, she was screaming her head off. I must admit it was getting to me that she didn't get over the fact that they are famous, and she didn't realise they were just regular people.

The boys all cheered at the response, and we walked towards their car. Ashton sat in the driver's seat, Ay at shotgun. The rest of us were behind, talking the drive away.

When we reached their house, I realised it wasn't massive, it was cosy, and welcoming. It was probably around the same size as mine. 

We walked in, and it wasn't what I had expected it to be. It was modern, with a big staircase, that led up to a super long corridor. I didn't have time to look at anything else, I was pulled forward by Luke, who had grabbed my hand and started running. I didn't think, and followed him laughing. I didn't have much of a choice anyway, his grip was so tight I couldn't get away. He opened a door and we found ourselves in their back yard. As I glimpsed at the pool, I knew what he was up to and I didn't like it. He kept running towards it, and when he did he let go of my hand, and stripped down to his boxers. I stood still, staring at his perfect body. My stare was broken as he bombed into the pool.

"You joining me?" he said cheekily. Ugh, fuck it. I stripped out of my skinnies and jumper, took off my bracelet finding myself in my bra and pants, and dived into the pool, next to Luke. He grinned and swam towards me. 

"Listen, Luke." I had no idea why I chose this moment to say it. He stopped dead in his tracks. "I have to tell you, that Ay has dibs on you. She has been a massive fan for a long, long time, and it would be wrong of me to try and get to close with you." I blurted out. He nodded understandingly.

"See, that's the thing. I want to get to know you, because you're yourself, you're not acting because we are somewhat famous, and that's what I like about you, that's what makes me come back for more." He said, looking genuine. I smiled at him, hugged him, and jumped out of the pool.

"Go talk to Aylin." I said, walking away from him.
