Dance on Main Street

Day 50

🐟

I woke up somewhat early and couldnt fall back asleep so I unwound Belles arms from my stomach and went to the kitchen. When I found Luke in there I wasnt surprised. Doesnt sleep well when they're fighting. I slid into the chair across from him. He glanced up at me but immediately looked back down at his phone.

"You're not actually gonna meet up with Kelsey are you?" I ask him. He nods but doesnt look at me. "What happened?" I ask leaning on my elbows.

"Nothing." He answers. "Come on Luke. I have an idea but it honestly better not be the real reason. Just tell me and I'll stop bothering you about it." He looks up and scans my face before standing up and starting to leave. I get up and stop him.

"Cal I dont need to tell you, you already know." He says looking down. I ball my hands into fists. "I cant help it. She wont so I need someone who will." He shrugs.

" You bastard youre ignoring her and are mad at her because she wont have sex with you?" I growl. He breaths in and looks up at me with a straight face. I hear footsteps behind me but I dont care enough. My fists collides with Lukes stomach blowing him to the ground. I continue to beat the living daylight out of him until Belle throws herself ontop of Luke.

"Calum! Alright, its okay! Stop!" Belle yells putting a hand in front of her. I stand looking down at them panting. The way she defends and takes care of him with so much love makes me so angry because Luke is just pushing her away for a sick and dumb reason. I turn around and walk back to my room.

As Calum walks away with a clenched jaw I turn around to look at Luke. He just got his ass handed to him. But the thing is, he never once fought back. He let that happen to him.

"Luke are you alright?" I ask taking his hand slowly off his face. His face is filled with regret and hurt. "Are you okay?" I ask again.

"Belle I'm fine. Just go away." He says sitting up wincing and clutching his side.

"I don't care if you hate me. Luke I don't care if I'm your least favorite person in the entire world. If you're hurt I'm going to stay and help." I say. He may be mad at me for something but if he's hurt I'm going to stay with him.

"Just get me an icepack and go back to Calum." He snaps. I grab an icepack and slap it into his hand.

"Not long ago you told me how much of a dick you were before we met. I hate him. I hate that person you complained you 'were' because it wasn't you. Right now, that's the person I see sitting in front of me. I was protecting my Luke when I stopped Calum. This asshole in front of me isn't my Luke. It doesn't even hurt to say I hate you because this isn't Luke." I say walking out of the kitchen. Just the thought almost made me cry. I hate Luke? No you hate whatever's replaced him. I walk into the room and start grabbing my things.

"Belle I'm sorry I hurt him! I'm sorry! Please don't be mad at me." Calum begs standing behind me as I zip my bag.

"Cal you have no idea how happy I am that you kicked his ass. Don't be sorry. If had Luke stopped being this dick guy then I might be upset. But he hasn't so I'm not. A minute ago I told him I hated him..." I say letting it all sink in. Oh my god I actually said that!

"Belle, you don't hate him. I know this isn't the regular Luke but you love Luke." Cal says softly.

"I love Luke but I hate this ass that's pretending to be him." I say dragging my bag into what should've been Luke's room. Apparently he has decided to crash on the couch.

🐧

She hates me. H-A-T-E-S. The realization hurting more than Calum's fist. Michael walks into the kitchen and looks at me confused.

"What the hell happened to you?" He asks. I glare at him and stand up tossing the icepack onto the table.

"Nothing." I say walking over to the living room for clothes. I just grab a bunch of random clothes, they won't mean anything soon. After changing I walk out of the hotel room.

Kelsey is very clingy. Anything I ask she does. Something has just been missing and I know Kelsey can handle that. So I called her and now she's here at the hotel. I walk to what is supposed to Belle and I's room. Inside though Belle is laying on the bed in an oversized sweatshirt, short shorts, and her hair is thrown in a messy bun.

"Bellerose get out of my room." I say annoyed. She looks up from her phone and rolls her eyes but doesn't move. "Get out of my room." I repeat.

"All I see in this room is my stuff Lucas. Nothing in here is yours except for that slut." She says looking at Kelsey. I step over to the side of the bed and stand over her.

"I love this fake ass tough girl act but get the hell out now." I growl. She swings her legs over the side of the bed and stands up so her chest is pressed to mine.

"It's nowhere near as fake as your asshole act. This is my room." She fires back extremely angry. As the conversation has continued her face has become more red from frustration.

"Bellerose, you're making this a lot more difficult. Leave and that can be the end of it." I say glaring down at her. I admit the way her eyes turned a darker blue and her jaw looked sharper against her face made her look even more beautiful.

"Fine. I'm leaving. Goodbye Luke." She says walking over to her bag. She tosses any loose objects into it.

"You're going like three feet away just drag it." I say rolling my eyes. Kelsey is standing in the doorway still just staring at Belle.

"Luke Boston is much farther than three feet." She says zipping her bag up and pulling it out of the room. After she leaves I start to freak out a little. I run to Calums room and open the door. Nope. I check all the rooms and she isn't in any. She really did go home.

"Luke? Can you hurry up? I have a life besides you." Kelsey calls. I walk back into the room and close the door. Before she says anything else I slam my mouth to hers. We all know where it went from there.

-

"Just get over whatever the hell is wrong with you lately and ask her out." Kelsey says walking out of the bathroom in her clothes. Her hair is still dripping from her shower and she has no makeup on.

"What are you talking about Kels?" I ask flicking through TV channels. She rolls her eyes and turns off the TV.

"Bellerose. Three times you said her name. Three. You like her and no matter what she says she likes you too. Just ask her out and get over whatever you're doing right now." She says putting her hands on her hips.

"I can't do that. I'm not explaining the same story because I know you've heard it. She told me she hated me this morning and I think she really left back home." I say turning the TV back on. As soon as I say it though I fall back onto the bed. "Oh my god she really went home." I groan.

"Told you. You really like her and need her here." Kelsey says.

"I know I like her! I love her!" I yell throwing my hands up. Kelsey sits next to me and sighs.

"Then what the hell am I doing here if you love her?" She asks. I sit up and give her a look. "Why do you think you're here?" I ask. "You honestly are willing to give up on her for that?" She asks shaking her head.

"Can you just stay this week? I don't want to have to think about it. I don't sleep great so can you just stay? We're still friends." I plead. She nods and pulls me all the way onto the bed. I click off the TV and toss the clicker on the floor. Her small arms go around my stomach while mine wrap around her back. No offense to Kels but she isn't as good of a cuddler as Belle.

"Night Kels."

"Goodnight Luke."
