TRY HARD

Chapter 15

*massive time skip*
Were currently in Oslo. I was never able to get the tattoo I wanted but life has been pretty good. Luke and I are strong as ever.
"Oh it's from Harlow" I say looking at my phone. Lukes head turns.
"I need to call her now" I go into the back room of the bus and hit call.
"Are you ok?" I ask immediately
"He's dead, I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry I didn't realize how bad I was until I lost you, please forgive me"
"Har...."
"He was killed in a police shoot out, he was trafficking drugs...I don't want anything to do with him. I'm not planning his funeral, he can lay in the morgue forever. I don't care. I want you back"
"I've missed you, you finally came to your senses"
"I did, I'm sorry babe. We've been friends forever, please come home"
"I'm having a lot of fun on tour, but I will be home soon. I missed you"
"I missed you too. So how are things over there?" She asks.
"Well Luke and I are dating but no one knows just yet for sure. There's a shit tone of rumours" I say going a little quieter.
"You're a fighter" she says back
"Ya you're right, I got to go, I think we're here"
"Ok bye babe" we hang up and I tell them we're good now.
"So you're really good?" Luke asks as we sit in the green room.
"Ya, Blaze was killed. She came to her senses and realized she was a bitch" I start to do my makeup as Luke goes into the bathroom. He leaves his phone with me so the boys don't take selfies with it. I look at it when it lights up. A girls name appears.
"Jess: When are you gonna break up with that bitch? She's a slut, you said it yourself babes" I frown. I pick it up and read some of the messages. I see her nudes, his nudes, the same ones he sent me. The ones I've taken of him. The way he talks about me. The names he calls me. I hear him flush the toilet and he starts to come out of the bathroom. I quickly hit call. She answers almost instantly.
"Hey, this is the slut, Luke doesn't have to break up with me because I'm breaking up with him." I hang up and pass him his phone. He looks shocked.
"You weren't-"
"I wasn't what Luke?" I say facing the mirror to finish my makeup.
"I wasn't supposed to see you cheating on me? Sending Jess the nudes I took of you? Sending her the same ones you send me? Telling her how much you want to be inside her? Telling her how much of a slut I am? Then you roll over and tell me I'm beautiful and I'm not alone. And run your hands along my scars. And tell me I'm not a slut and didn't deserve what I got back home. But I guess you're just a great actor. We're those songs really about me? Or were they about Jess?" hes crying, and the boys look shocked. I guess they didn't know.
"You were never in love with me Luke, you were in love with the idea of having a broken, damaged, bad girl suck your cock and make your ego even bigger. Fuck you Luke Hemmings. You try to even come near me again and I will get a restraining order." I quickly pack up my stuff as Luke rubs his face. I text Harlow and walk towards the door. I try to hold back my tears while I face the other boys.
"I love you guys. Text me ok?" I say as Michael stands and hugs me.
"I'm so sorry" he says.
"Don't be. It's not your fault." I have to try even harder not to cry.
"I love you Delia" Calum says hugging me. I can hear Luke whisper under his breath
"Me too" he says.
"We have your back" Ashton says. I back away slowly, looking Luke up and down. He's shocked. He's sad. He's regretful. I shake my head.
"I loved you" I say and walk out the door. I quickly run into the bus and grab my bags. I call up a cab to take me to the airport.
"Hello?" Harlow answers.
"What's so important you couldn't tell me over text?"
"I'm coming home"
"I thought you were gonna stay with Luke and the others"
"Ya well Luke is cheating" I respond the cab driver laughs.
"This isn't your conversation fuck off" I say.
"Well I'll be at home waiting." I hang up and get onto a plane. On a plane back home.
