Be Strong

Chapter 8

*LUKES POV*

I wake up with her in my arms. The sound of her breath faint in my ears. Her hair braided over to the side. Arms around my waist pulling me closer, legs tangled. I lean down and kiss her forehead. She grunts and smiles. Her brown eyes fluttering to life, she sits up and a smile is plastered to her face.

"Good morning sunshine" I say

"When did you get here" She asks.

"Last night." I say "Drew called me and told me to come"

"What happened?" She asks looking surprised.

"She said you were screaming my name. You don't remember talking to me?" I question.

"No." She says as she stretches "I'm sorry"

"Its fine princess, I love sleeping with you" I catch my words before they come out, with no such luck. "I didn't mean it like that, I'm not saying that you aren't good in bed, not that I would know but-"

She cuts me off with a giggle.

"I really need to go to my classes today" She says with a smile.

"Oh yeah, sorry ill go." I say as i get up and walk out of the room.

I hate this feeling I have for her. I've never felt it before. I don't want to be away from her. I want to be sure she is okay, day and night.

*GRACES POV*

"Whoa Grace" Drew says as she is getting dressed.

"What?" I ask in wonder.

"The way Luke talked to you. I've never seen him like that before."

"Really?"

She nods "I think he might actually like you, but he still wants to fuck you" she says with a smile.

I shake my head and laugh. I get dressed and head off to my first class. Calculus. Great. I think to myself. I pass a coffee shop on the way there and I get some.

I walk into the classroom. Its huge. Of course I sit in the front, like the teachers pet I am. Across from me is a dark headed boy with a 'All Time Low' shirt on. His head turns until his eyes meet mine.

"Have I met you before" I ask him.

"Were you the drunk girl who fell on top of Hemmings?" he asks with a laugh

"yeah, that was me" I say with a laugh "My name is Grace."

He nods his head and chuckles.

"Well its nice to meet you Grace, I'm Calum"

Calum? The Calum Luke got in a fight with? It has to be, its not like Calum is a very common name. Luke did say it was a long time ago, maybe they are okay with each other now.

A lady with white hair walks into the room and sits down behind a desk in the front of the room.

"Hello class" the lady says "We are going to pick up where we left off yesterday." she opens up her notebook and starts talking.

When her class is over I gather my things and start for the door. I walk into a large open hallway. people around my with backpacks and books in their hands. A hand grabs my shoulder and turns me around. Calum stands behind me smiling.

"Did I scare you" He smiles "Are you going to the party this Friday?" he asks

"I don't think so, I really need to study" I say.

"Oh come on. Live a little."

"I don't know ill think about it"

"Okay" he says. he puts his hand on my shoulder and then walks away. I can see Luke standing at the end of the hallway talking to Ashton. Luke pats Ashtons back and walks away. When his eyes meet mine a smile takes over his face.

Luke starts walking toward me.

"Hey beautiful." he says as he kisses my forehead.

"Hey"

"Where ya headed?" Luke asks.

"Umm I don't know?" I say as I pull out my schedule.

"My next class is American History, But its not until One."

"What do you want to do until then?" He asks with his arm around me.

I grab his hand and take it away from my shoulder.

"I was just going to go back to my dorm."

"Okay, ill drive you"

"Luke'

"No its okay. I really don't want you walking alone anyway."

"Luke, ill be okay I'm eighteen years old, I can walk home alone."

"Grace please let me drive you"

"Okay I guess"

He smiles and leads me to his car. He walks over to the passenger door and opens it for me. I get into the car and so dose he.

"Luke."

"What" He says.

"You know we cant like be together Luke"

"what made you think I want to be with you?" he says as his smile fades

"well I just thought ma-" I start to say

"No just ya know what, your right, you can walk."

"Luke" I say

"No, get out." he says sternly. "Now"

I open up the door and step out. He pulls out of the parking lot nearly hitting another car.

*LUKES POV*

Does she really think that I like her? That I would go out of my way to please her? What the fuck is wrong with her. She already knows what I do to girls like her. Why dose she think that she is any different.

AUTHORS NOTE:

Hey guys. I'm sorry that it took so long to update. I love that you guy are really reading my story!! It takes a lot to write all of this, but i really like doing it. I've been grounded, and i still am, i may have snuck on here. Okay but I wont get to update for at the longest a week. I currently have two D's in school. One in math and one in history. My grandparents don't accept that so give me one more week and ill be updating like I was! I don't know why, but I really really like this story. I've wrote stories before but not a lot of people read them. On my other story I have 150 reads, but I don't like it very much. Its about Niall, but i wrote it on my IPod, so there are a lot of errors in it. It doesn't have a very good plot either. Yeah but I Love you bunches
