The way I loved you || 5sos

Chapter 9

Suddenly i woke up to my phone vibrating under my pillow, it was Luke.

"It is three AM Lucas, this better be good!" I answered, the other end was silent, except for a slight sniffle, "Luke?"

"Daisy, moms in the hospital." He managed to say between the cries and sniffling "I've been trying to keep myself together but it's 3 AM and I'm alone."

"What? What's wrong with her? Luke, I'm on my way. I'll be there soon okay babe? Please just breathe." I was speed talking. I jumped out of bed and pulled on the nearest pair of leggings.

"No, Daisy.. Don't do that. You need sleep." Luke responded.

"No. Luke, shut up okay? I'm coming. Are you at the hospital? Home? Where the fuck are you?" If I needed sleep so badly he wouldn't have called me. He wouldn't have called me if he didn't need me.

"I'm at home."

"I'm coming."

I ran downstairs and my mom was standing in the kitchen making her coffee.

"Daisy?" She called.

"Yes, hi mom."

"What are you doing up? Are you going somewhere? What's wrong?" She questioned, concerned.

"Liz is in the hospital. Luke just called me and I need to go to him. I'll be home tonight okay? I love you." I said as I ran to the door.

I felt bad just leaving my mother like that, but Luke needed me. I raced to his house and when I got there he was sitting on the porch it was freezing cold and he was in a cut up shirt that said "you complete mess" on the front. I ran up the driveway and he stood up, hugging me tighter than ever, I flinched as his cold skin touched mine.

"Daisy," he began to speak but he was stopped by the tears forming in the corners of his eyes.

"Are you insane? It's freezing! Go inside!" I yelled at him. He looked down at me, I could see the vulnerability in his eyes and I felt my heart sink.

I pulled him inside and we embraced again.

"She's sick, Daisy. I don't know what's wrong but she's sick, she was throwing up, she could hardly stand, she wouldn't eat," he started to sob "I don't fucking know. She passed out apparently and her best friend rushed her to the emergency room. That's why they called me out of class. Daisy I had a bad feeling all fucking morning, I knew it."

I didn't say anything. I couldn't. The lump in my throat began to grow and I couldn't swallow it no matter how hard I tried. He pulled away and once again I looked into his eyes, I saw everything. I saw every emotion he was feeling.

His eyes traveled from my lips back to my eyes the entire time. I wanted to kiss him more than anything. It was nearly 4 AM and I could see how drained Luke was.

"Babe, you need to go to sleep okay? Please go to bed, or try to at least." I said, breaking the silence.

"Stay with me?" He pleaded, "I need you."

We walked upstairs and he threw a pair of boxers at me Long with one of his sleeveless so and shirts. "I want you to be comfortable" he said.

We crawled into bed, and I rested my head on his chest listening closely to the beating of his heart. I started tracing little things on his chest and stomach with my fingers, every so often he would twitch or get goose bumps. I looked up at him and he was already staring at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing. I love you." He smiled at me.

"I love you."

His smile faded and his face got serious as his eyes traveled to my lips. He slowly got closer to me and soon our lips collided. He put one hand on my hair and the other one on the small of my back. My hand was still laying on his chest while I used my arm to prop myself up a little so I was closer to Luke. His hands traveled along my body, his fingers dragging along my skin. I ran my fingers along his stomach and his chest, feeling the goose bumps but not stopping. I started to apply pressure and he let out a soft moan. I sat up and placed my legs on either side of his body so I was now on top of him. Luke's hands traveled down my back and he ran them over nearly every inch of my skin. I wasn't aware of the fact that I had been rocking my hips until he placed his hands on them, guiding me so that it felt a little better for both of us. I looked at his face, his eyes were closed and his lips were parted slightly. I started to slide my hand down to his boxers but he tightened his grip and stopped me. He flipped me over and planted a kiss on my forehead.

"Go to sleep."

"I love you, Luke."

"I love you."

I glanced at the clock and it was 4 AM.
