My very own fairytale (luke hemmings)

Chapter 16.

Sophie's pov

After I zipped my suitcase, hugged Valery goodbye and sat in the taxi I called for the airport, I was already missing my dorm room. It was so much perfect for me! A small kitchen with two beds and a bathroom. Plus, my roomate Valery had become my first female bestfriend, and in the only four month we spent together, we already shared everything. Clothes, passions, boys, everything.

I said boys, but it never really worked for me. I went to look around, find some cuties, but at the moment we started to hang out and that the things were getting hotter, I couldn't stop thinking about Luke.

As the taxi driver helped me out with my heavy bags, a thought crossed my mind.

*Flashback*

Valery just got back from work, when she found me under my covers. At first, I wouldn't get out of them, because I had cried and my face was surely all red and puffy.

She finally made her way in my bed next to me, her arms wrapping around my shoulders.

"Soph, talk to me. What's going on? Is it about Sebastien?" She asked me with a maternal and reassuring voice.

Sebastien was this hot guy from a fraternity. He was tall, blond and had cute blue eyes. At a party, we had danced all night together and he finally got my number. We went on a couple of dates, but my heart wasn't there.

"I just told him it was over." I said with a shaky voice.

Her body tensed at my words, surprised, but she quickly recovered.

"Why?"

I took a deep breath.

"Everytime I am with him, he use to make me laugh and I always have a good time. But, I know that, deep inside, something is wrong. I don't know how to explain, but I couldn't make him waiste his time any longer because the thing we had wouldn't end up anywhere."

She nodded silently, thinking about my situation. Valery was the kind of girl who had a lot of experience so she had a genuis advice for everything. She was the kind of friend every girls need.

"Talk to me about your bestfriend.. Luke?"

"Okay.. well we know eachothers since forever and we grew up together. I have always taken him as a brother to me, but this summer he revealed me his feelings. I was so sad not to be able to make the same stating that I felt the same about him. I thought we were the exception to the rule, that we could prove that a girl and boy friendship was possible without developing feelings. I was wrong, I guess..."

"What about you? What do you feel towards Luke?"

I remember to have really thought about her question. What are my feelings for him? When Valery realized that I could not give her an answer at the moment, she left me to my thoughts. I fell asleep, but a few days later, everything became clear.

"Val!" I yelled as I unlocked the door, to find her in the shower. Without even thinking about it, I came in the bathroom, causing her to jump behind the curtent.

"Soph, you scared the shit out of me! I thought it was a rapist or something like that!" She was out of breath, just like me.

Why I was out of breath? Because I just ran for ten minutes from my classroom to our dorm. I had an illumination and desesperatly needed to share it with my roomate.

Valery got out of the shower. She wrapped a towel around her waist and an other around her head, for her hair, before following me to our beds. I told her to sit.

"I am in love with him." I stated.

"With who? Sebastien?"

I rolled my eyes at her, but found a way to laugh.
