Every Time It Rains // L.H.

Part 10

I woke up to Luke playing with my hair. I kept my eyes closed though. Just a little bit longer of this beautiful paradise. Luke kissed my temple and I couldn't help but smile a bit. "I know you're awake." Luke says matter-of-fact. 

"Damn it!" I laugh then I roll over to face him. I lean on top of him. "How did you sleep?"

"Okay." He answers, "You?"

"I slept fine." I say. Then the doorbell rings. I go downstairs to see who it is. I end up opening the door the my last boyfriend, may I add, my only other boyfriend besides Luke. But him and I didn't really last that long. "Alex?" I say then Luke comes down.

"Hey babe." He says then kisses me full on the lips. I push him off. and Luke walks up protectively behind me. "It's been a while. Miss me?"

"Not at all you jerk! Go away!" I say. Then Luke punches him. 

"Who are you!?" Luke says somewhat confused.

"I'm Alex. Lily's boyfriend."

"What?! Luke no he's not my boyfriend!" I slam the door in Alex's face and lock it.

"You're cheating on me?" He says I can feel the tears in his eyes.

"Lucas no! He's just-"

"Just what Lily! He kissed you! He said he was your boyfriend! I trusted you and what just happened proves maybe I shouldn't have. Maybe this should have never happened!" He said Looking at me dead in the eyes. I felt hot tears in my eyes.

"You didn't let me explain." I say trying not to cry but not doing very well. Then his eyes widen.

"Lily I'm-" He starts, gulping.

"I need to go." I say crying a bit. I run outside and Alex was already gone. I run down the street. I have no clue where I'm going, so I just head where I usually go when I feel trapped. Still crying, still running. It might take a while to get there, but I'm still going.

LUKE POV

I stand there, letting her walk out the door. And I'm stupid for that. I hit the wall and start crying. And yelling. Yelling the most obvious things "I SHOULD HAVE LET HER FUCKING EXPLAIN!!!" I yell. "I'm A PIECE OF SHIT!" I cry. I don't know where I stand right now. I walk into the kitchen and do what I normally do in a situation like this. I pulled out a knife and slowly cut it into my arm. I watched the blood trickle down and drip into the sink. After a few slashes I feel a bit overwhelmed. So I wash off my arm and bandage it up. I just went to Lily's room and laid in her bed trying to calm down. I was determined to go after her, but didn't realize that an hour had already passed by. I went down stairs to head out wiping off my tears. When Steph came in and noticed me. 

"Luke are you okay?" She asks.

"Is Lily with you?" I ask tears slipping through my eyes.

"No why would she be? I though she was with you.

"We had a fight and it was bad." I said. "I don't know if we are still together, um. Do you know where she is? I'm going to go talk to her."

"I have no idea where she is. Go look for her." She said. I didn't think twice, I ran out got into my car and drove off looking for her. When it started to rain.

Still Luke's POV

I had been looking all over town for her. It was already 6 in the evening and getting dark. I went back into the car because it was still raining and thought. Thought about all the places she ever took me, that she would go in times of trouble. Then I got it. I drove off, and started to go to where I hoped she was.

Back to Lily's POV

I laid there in front of my daddy's and Harper's graves. To top off my sucky day, today was the anniversary of my family's death. I just laid there crying, in the rain. wishing that they were here. Knowing it was my fault they weren't here. I sat up trying to take control of my emotions. When I heard footsteps. But the rain was so heavy I couldn't see anything. 

"Hello?" I yell. I Immediately thought the worst, my step father Phil.

"Go away Phil!" Please don't hurt me I can't do this anymore!" I yell crying. So much for controlling my emotions. When I finally got sight of the figure, it turned out to of coarse be Phil. 

"Hey, beautiful!" he said getting closer.

"Please just stay away! Haven't you had enough! Why can't you just leave me alone!" I yell crying again.

He gets closer literally a foot from me. He stops in front of me, "Why should I leave you alone? Where's that boyfriend of yours?" He said. "Did he realize how pathetic you are and left you?" He scoffed. I just cried and yelled as loud as possible.

"SOMEONE HELP ME! PLEASE!" As soon as I yelled that I saw someone tackle down Phil. I looked better and realized it was Luke. They were fighting. Phil was on top of Luke and pushed him farther then got up towards me. I kicked his leg and he threw me down. My head hit my dad's stone. The last thing I saw after that was Phil running away, and Luke got up towards me, Blood dripping down his mouth.

"I'm sorry."I heard him choke up while saying it. then I blacked out.
