 I woke up the next day in Luke's room. I fluttered my eyes open and stood up on my feet. I walked to the bathroom to brush my teeth.

Wow.

My face had pimples from crying. My eyes were still all puffy. My make up half way down my face, and my hair was horrible. I washed my face and mouth and put my hair in a bun and walked out of the bathroom into the living room. Luke was laying on the couch asleep. I walked over by him and looked at the clock. It was only 4:00 so I wasn't going to wake him. Why did I wake up so early. I walked over to Luke anyways and tapped his nose. He looked at my groggily.

"Why don't you go sleep in your bed?"

"Because you needed somewhere to sleep."

"I'm fine go."

"Well you are my best friend so come with me."

He climbed in the bed and I climbed on the other side. We stayed on opposite sides. We were only best friends and had no intentions of going any further. I drifted back of to sleep before my mind could think about anything. I woke up to the sound of a loud *thump*

I looked over to see Luke laying on the ground curled in a ball. I let out a small chuckle because I wasn't in the mood to laugh.

"I went to make pancakes and I tripped on my shoes." he winced

I helped him up as he walked to the kitchen and end up just pulling out two bowls milk and cereal. I wasn't going to argue because I really wasn't in the mood for anything.

"You only need one bowl, I'm not eating."

"What why," he said, looking up at me "is it because Laura?"

"I don't wanna talk about it." I said grabbing my phone and keys and walking out of the house. He followed me to my car

"Lizzy hey I'm sorry. You do need to eventually talk about it. She only moved, you can call her."

I rolled my eyes and kept walking. When I got in my car I looked back at him once more time as he stood in the rain watching my car leave. Does he not realize I just lost my best friend. I pulled into the garage and walked inside. I ran to the shower and stepped in. I closed my eyes and let the water soothe my back. I let out a small sob remember my day yesterday. When I got out I put my hair in a wet bun, put a t shirt and leggings on. I crawled in my bed turning on the TV. I heard my phone ring next to me. I picked it up not even looking at who was calling and turned it off. I buried my face into my pillow and cried. Not only did I loose Laura, I'm pretty sure Luke hates me now. I end up just crying myself to sleep.

When I woke up it was around 7 pm. Damn, I've been sleeping a lot. I walked over to the kitchen to get some water, then crawled back into my bed. I turned on my phone to see I had 20 messages and 4 missed calls and 3 voice mails. I was about to check them before Luke called. I didn't answer.

A few minutes later a heard knock at my door. I sat up to go and check it. I stumbled over to the door and opened it. Before I could react I was engulfed into a hug.

"Oh my gosh thank god you are okay, you didn't answer any of my text or calls." he spoke, into my hair.

"Of course I'm fine, I just had my phone off and I was sleeping." I huffed, walking back to my room.

Luke followed me.

"Are you mad at me?" He questioned.

"Nope" I said popping the 'P'.

I was lying.

He acted like it was my fault I was upset. No, my best friend moved across the world. I can't just call her. The time zones and everything. We did everything together.

"You're lying. Look I'm sorry about Laura. But, you do still have me." He said, drawing circles on my hand.

I just closed my eyes and let out a tear and smiled.

"Thanks." I mumbled, as I pulled him into a hug.

"Hey, me and the guys got a gig tonight at a little pub, you should go!" Luke said, he seemed excited.

"I would but I'm not really in the mood."

"Pleaseeee!! It will be fun!"

"Fine I'll go."

Luke left to go practice once more before his little gig. I'm glad they're getting a little noticed. They are really good.

I put on some black jeans, a guns n' roses shirt, and my vans. I put my hair in a pony tail and put on some mascara. I grabbed my phone and keys and texted Luke.

To: Lukeyy

I can't wait to see you guys play! be there soon!

To: Lizzy

Okay :) see you there

I pulled into the parking lot of the small pub. I walked inside to see the guys setting up.

"Hey guys!" I waved

"Hey" they all said in together.

They all came up to hug me.

"Well you guys start soon so I would get up there."

I took my set in the front, among about 20ish people. I wasn't going to count heads.

They started to play a song I wasn't familiar with. They sounded really good. Once they where done, they walked off stage and gave me a sweaty hug.

"Eww gross get off!" I squirmed, they let me go.

"You guys did really good!"

"Why thank you." Ashton said, "we still suck though."

After we talked for about an hour, I decided to go home.

When I got home, I walked to the kitchen to get a sandwich. There was a note on the fridge that read:

Sorry hon that I couldn't say bye. I just wanted to tell you that the company had me leave for another 2 weeks for another trip. I left some money in an envelop on your dresser for food. I'm soo sorry. I promise we will do something together when I get back.!

- love mom

Of course she had another business trip. She's never home anymore. I just miss her. I huffed and set the note down on the table and went to bed. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.
