The next day at school was pretty good, I got to go home for recess and lunch as my mum wasn’t working so I didn’t have to spend the rest of the day at school, sitting all by myself. The few times I would have classes with Luke was pretty good though, we spoke a few times and we would occasionally give each other little looks from across the room. But, what really surprised me is we have been texting none stop, like he was actually enjoying having a conversation with me as I was with him.
It was now 6pm on a Friday night, the night everyone in my hell of a school would go partying with their friends while I would lay in bed watching soppy old movies with my mother, you know living the life.
“Siena, I heard from Luke’s mum yesterday.” She said smiling.
“And?”
“I didn’t realise you two were talking until she told me, but we’ve been invited to the Hemmings’ for a barbecue tomorrow afternoon.”
My heart dropped, this is what I knew would happen as soon as we became friends again, that meant our parents would too. I mean, I’ve always liked Luke’s mum and I had no problem with seeing his family and all, but I didn’t think we were on good terms yet, never the less I agreed. We continued our little marathon of movies until my phone started buzzing loudly.
It was Luke.
“Hello?” I said drowsily, dreading the conversation ahead.
“Siena I’m outside your place let me in.” He said, it came across as if he had been crying.
“Are you okay, Luke?”
“Just let me in, Si.” He said his voice cracking once more.
I quickly ran downstairs in my pj’s to find Luke with blood shot eyes and a tear stained t-shirt. As soon as I opened the door Luke brought me into a hug, not saying anything just sobbing. I took his hand and pulled him into my living room and sat him down on the couch.
“What happened?” I asked knowing that this had to have something to do with his long time girlfriend, Sabrina.
“What has she done now?” I said firmly, handing him a tissue.
“I-I walked in on her and Michael, making out.” He spat out.
“What did you do?” I asked.
“I asked her what they were doing and all she said was sorry, Michael looked incredibly drunk but Sabrina, she knew what she was doing. I thought she loved me Si, I didn’t think she’d ever do something like this.” He said starting to cry once more.
Luke and Sabrina have been together for quite some time now, but I always thought of her to be a slut. She’s probably been with every guy in school and I guess she managed to get one of Luke’s best friends in on it too. I then pulled him into another hug as he rested his head in the crook of my neck.
“Why don’t you stay over tonight you can sleep in the guest room, I’m sure your mum won’t mind we’re coming over tomorrow anyway.” I whispered in his ear running my fingers through his hair, still trying to comfort him.
“Okay.” Was all he managed to say, so I brought him up stairs and gave him a wet face towl to cool him down.
“Thank you.” He said slowly as he got into the bed in the guest room.
“No problem.” I said as I approached the door to go to my room.
“Stay,” He said.
“What?” I said confused.
“Please, Siena” He whined.
“Fine” I said as I got into the bed with him.
It felt weird, I mean as kids we always used to do this, but for some reason it felt different. He then brought his arm around my waist and I began to hear light snores escape his mouth.
“Goodnight” I whispered to him as I turned on my back and went back to sleep.
