Chapter 29 - Wrapped Around Your Finger

It was 6 am and my flight was at 7:40. I was already packet and was about ready to head down to the airport. After I told Luke was leaving, I had ran away. Since he was hooked up to IV and all that, he couldn't follow me either.

When I went back to Derek's I tried taking drugs but I couldn't. The needle scared me, I don't know why. Derek then explained to me that I just needed to recover from a few day straight of drugs. I sighed before heading to bed. 

I then woke and that's where I am now. Sitting downstairs with my suitcase between my legs. I was scared, afraid of what Luke could do when I was gone.

"Michael!"

I looked up and saw Derek, his eyes showed worry as I then realized he had been trying to call me for the past few minutes.

"Sorry, I- I-" I didn't know how to finish my sentence. I then grabbed my phone and saw all the tests from Luke. I didn't both to read them, but instead I just turned off my phone.

"C'mon Michael." I stood and grabbed my suitcase. The 2 of us then went outside to the car. I threw my lugage in the trunk which he did as well. 

I sat in the passenger seat as he grabbed the drivers seat. The drive to the airport was hell. The stereo in Derek's car didn't work so the 2 of us had to sit in silence. It was quite terrible actually, though it did give me more time to think.

I slipped in my headphones and pressed Wrapped Around Your Finger by that band 5 Seconds of Summer that Luke had shown me. They were pretty good so I downloaded a few of their songs. 

The song pretty much told how I felt about Luke. No matter what he did, I just couldn't stay away from him. My mind would always have him on it. I was wrapped around his finger in a way. 

But, if Luke had marked my name into his arm, along with a bunch of other cuts, would he try and kill himself once I was on the other side of the world? At least now I knew that he was alive and could one day be happy. Whereas he could be dead the next time I returned to Australia.

No, Luke wouldn't do that. Luke was strong and could live through anything. Right?

That's when we pulled up at the airport. I stepped out of the car and grabbed my bag. After getting everything sorted and all that, along with going through the metal detector which then went off for me because I have my piercings and had to go through another scanner which I then showed them the piercings and they let me through.

Derek and I met up with Danny who had been waiting for Gerard to get back with something to drink. See when you take certain drugs you stop craving certain things, such as food. Though you sometimes get really thirsty which explains why I was constantly thirsty and hadn't eaten in a few days.

When Gerard returned, he nearly dropped the drinks when he saw me. Somehow, he knew that I had done something bad.

We all then sat down in the airport seats next to our terminal, waiting for the flight to be called.

I then felt Derek's hand on mine, he didn't even pay attention to me, he was talking with Danny who was next to him while I saw next to Gerard.

"You still love him don't you?" I looked up at the now white haired boy. See we were all told to change our looks somehow so we couldn't be spotted in America. I just dyed my hair back to galaxy but this time more blue.

For some strange reason I loved dying my hair. Even if it was just getting streaks put into it or something, it was still super fun and I guess was something to distract me from the pain of being without Luke.

"Yeah, I do, but I can't. I told him I was leaving, and there isn't anything I could do about it." I mumbled.

"Tell me about him." Gerard said but in an asking tone.
