Live Your Life (Luke Hemmings)

absolutely 'ch.3

Days passed and the whole group hadn't been the same. Luke always stayed by Katri's side, as well as Michael. Ashton and Calum weren't around as much. The tension bewteen Calum and Katriana was strong, and they never told anyone why.

As she walked up to her bedroom from school, she heard the front door open. She quickly walked to her room and shut the door. Walking to her bed, she opened a drawer and pulled out a slim black journal. The cover read, 'It's Personal', and she opened it, flipping it to a clean page. Grabbing a pencil from the bedside table, a knock came from her door. "It's open." She yelled.

Kate walked in slowly, the door creaking. "Hey, Katray." She smiled. Katri smiled and shook her head. "What'd ya need?"

"So Australian, I must say." Kate commented, giggling. Katri scoffed and laughed. "I am Australian, Katelyn." She replied. Kate glared at her and grinned. "Anyways," She sighed dramatically.

"How's life, little sister?" Katri shrugged. "Shitty as always." She replied. Kate frowned and stepped  completely in to her sister's room. She took a seat next to Katri and placed her hand on her shoulder.

"Do you want to tell me?" Kate asked. Katri shook her head, leaning against her bedframe. Kate looked down and sighed. "Kat,"

Kate paused. She thought for a moment. Her sister was always perky, and now she wasn't. What was happeneing that made her seem so, upset? She took a small, shaky breath, and hugged Katri. "just please know you can tell me anything, and I mean anything." Kate let go of the hug.

"I've been through what you're going through, and I'm always here for you. No matter what. Whether it's boy troubles or bullying, I can help you." Kate gave Katri a faint smile. Katri smiled back and felt grateful for having a wise older sister.

"Positive?" Katri asked.

"Absolutely." Kate affirmed.

Her phone kept buzzing on the nightstand. The light eminating from the device flashed simultaneously. She groaned and unplugged it, adjusting her eyes to the bright light. Someone was calling her. Luke.

She answered the phone and held it to her ear. "H-Hello?" Her voice was groggy.

"Hey, babe, sorry to wake up you up this late at night." Luke apologized from the other line, Katri hearing muffled voices in the background and shuffling.

"It's fine." Katri reassured, yawning. "I'm always awake at..." She glanced at the clock on her dresser. "Four thirty on a Tuesday."

Luke chuckled lightly. "We have some great news." Luke smiled.

"We?" Katri asked confused.

"Me and the band." Luke told her. He couldn't control his excitement. "Baby,"

"We're going to make it big time."

Katri's eyes widened and she covered her mouth to hide her scream. "No way!" She whisper-shouted into the phone. Luke giggled and sighed happily.

"Luke," Katri said, her tone turning more serious.

"Katri." He responded.

"I have a question for you."

"I have an answer."

Katri chuckled. "Will you still remember me when you're famous?"

"Absolutely. I'll never forget about you."

"Are you sure?"

"With all my heart." Luke responded, meaning it.

"I love you, Luke." Katri told him. There was a silence for a few moments.

"I love you more, Katriana." He finally sighed.

And meant it.
