-Luke-
I was way beyond exhausted as I flopped onto the hotel bed. I felt my phone start to vibrate so I pulled it from my jeans. I saw Lacy’s caller Id, causing me to smile.
“Hey baby,” I said happily after I’d accepted the call.
“Hi,” she said then sniffled.
“Lacy, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing. How’d the show go?” I heard her ask then take a deep breath.
“It was amazing. What’s been going on at home?”
“Nothing interesting. It feels like forever since we’ve spoken,” she pointed out.
“I know. Two weeks feels like forever”
“You haven’t texted”
“I know and I’m really sorry. I’ve been super swamped with the tour and interviews and promoting the album and it’s just…ugh. It’s been so crazy,” I explained.
“Jezzy’s home,” she said after a short silence.
“Really? That’s good”
“Yeah. She has a girl names Francesca with her”
“She sounds foreign”
“She’s Italian,” she said and I nod.
I realised she couldn’t see me, “cool. Is she nice?”
“Extremely. It’s kind of hard to understand her though, her accent being so thick and all,” she said then let out a forced laugh.
“Are you sure you’re ok?”
“I’m fine Luke. How are the guys?”
“They’re fine. Ashton’s kind of getting on my nerves”
“Why’s that?”
“Jezzy this. Jezzy that. He won’t shut up about Jezzy,” I smirked then looked over to him.
“I reject that statement,” he shouted.
“Hi Ash,” lacy shouted.
“She said hi,” I told him.
“Hi Lacy!” he screamed.
“You get that?” I asked with a chuckle.
“Yep. I miss you”
“I miss you too,” I looked over to the boys who were making kissy faces at me.
I gave them the finger and chuckled a little, “I have to go. I’m meeting the girls soon,” Lacy told me.
“Alright. I love you,” I reminded her.
“I love you too,” she said rather flatly then hung up.
“Well that was weird,” I told the boys.
“What?” Calum asked.
“Didn’t she say I love you?” Mike teased.
“No she did. But she sounded rather depressed and bored”
“Maybe she’s just tired and sad about you being away,” Ash suggested.
“Maybe. Jezzy’s home,” I said and his body suddenly perked up.
“What? Seriously?”
“Yeah. She has an Italian girl names Francesca with her apparently,” I said.
“Well damn. She couldn’t have come home two weeks ago?” he asked, rather frustrated.
“I don’t know man. That reminds me. Cal?”
“Yes Lucas?”
“Give me your phone,” I demanded but he hugged it against his chest.
“Why?” he asked suspiciously.
“I promise it’s good,” I said, so he reluctantly handed it over.
I went onto his Twitter and found Carolyn in Lacy’s followers list. I pressed the follow button before sending her a quick DM.
Hey ☺ Lacy told me you’re a fan
I went back to his feed before throwing it back to him, “what’d you do?” he asked.
“Helping out a friend of Lacy’s,” I smiled.
“Why do I have a bad feeling about this?” Michael asked.
“I could try and hook you up with Francesca,” I told him.
“And where is this coming from?”
“Since Scarlet turned out to be a bitch and you’re always complaining about being single…”
“Oh no. Luke what did you do?” Calum asked.
“As I said, I’m helping out Lacy’s friend Carolyn”
