Secrets Under My Skin // Luke Hemmings

Bands and Tour?

Enjoy

****************

Lola's (POV)

It's been a 7 days since Luke and his band left for the rest of their tour with One DIrection. Luke texts me every once in a while because of the time difference or we Facetime. Today is Sarah and I's graduation. I never thought this day would come. I never thought I would even still be here but my hero came and saved me. I'm glad Luke didn't give up on me.

"I can't believe this is happening!!" Sarah squeals into her phone. Apparently, Michael and Luke flew in since they had a day off just to come to our graduation.

"Sarah! Calm the hell down! Your blowing my ear drums out!" I yell to her from the bathroom. I let my hair down only putting a white headband. Walking out, I see Sarah laughing into her phone while tickling Felix's stomach. I walk down to the kitchen for snack and greeted by Mr. Brown

"Hello Lola." He greeted

"Hi Mr.Brown" I respond with a smile.

"Did you ever apply into any collages?"

"Oh, no. I actually can't afford to go to school." I say grabbing a green apple.

"You know I can le-"

"I'm fine. I don't need your money. I'm thinking of going on tour with Luke and his band. He asked me to be their opening act." I cut him off.

"Oh, I see you already have everything planned out?" He says walking to the around the counter.

"Well.... not yet. I haven't told him 'yes' but it'll work out. I think Sarah will be on tour with me. She asked about creating a small band."

"Of course she does. When she was younger, I bought her a guitar and I thought. I was in a band back in the days. She said to me that when she grows up, she wants to be in a band and travel around sharing their music. I guess that is going to come true." He laughs at his words and I smile at him.

*******************

"Congratulations to the Class of 2014!!!!"

After the speeches, sitting in the sun for an hour and walking, Sarah and I have finally graduated. Walking alone Sarah's side I stop Luke and Michael. I run up to Luke hugging him, wrapping my legs around his torso and kissing his lips.

"Miss you too." He says laughing putting me down. I look over at Sarah and Michael hugging and kissing. Gross view.

"One day." He sighs "What to do?"

"I was talking with Sarah's dad this morning and is the opening act for Rock With Your Socks Out spot still open?"

"Yeah."

"Great because my soon to be band wants to fill that spot in."

"Band?"

"Yeah. Sarah and Max. Max plays drums and Sarah's dad tells me she's always wanted to be in one and she's played guitar for years."

"Sarah? As in your best friend plays guitar?" He says taking my hand and walking to the parking lot.

"Yes, my Sarah." I chuckle.

"What's so funny" He furrows his eyebrows.

"Your surprised that Sarah, a girl, can play guitar."

"No I'm not surprised. Its just that.... never mind." He waves it off.

"I play guitar too you know. My mom give me her guitar a year before passing. It was my first guitar. Same with her, it was also her first." I sigh "She would've loved you." I smile.

"I would've liked her too. I mean she plays guitar but she gave birth to the most wonderfull girl."

"Why so cheesy Hemmings?"

"What? I only have one day off." He defends himself.

"I can't believe I fell in love with an idiot."

"Aye! A beautiful idiot." I laugh at Luke respond as I look over to my side to find Trisha getting yelled at but couldn't see who it was yelling at her. After a few minutes while Luke and I waiting for Michael and Sarah I look over at the same spot where I last saw Trisha and found her sitting against her car.

Tears running down her cheeks. Not looking away quickly, she catches me staring. She wipes her tears away, reaching into her pockets taking out her car keys and gets into her car, turning on the engine and driving away.

***************

Yesterday was one of the most bless full days I've ever had. The day contained laughter and joy. Michael, Sarah, Luke and I went to a restaurant for lunch then went walking around town. Some girls did recognize Michael and Luke asking for a picture, they were more then pleased.

Luckily, they shipped Luke and I so I didn't have to worry about getting cussed at. Luke and Michael left early this morning but we had said our byes the night before.

I'm currently at my house, luckily my father has been at his girlfriends house getting wasted and going nuts with her. Sarah's father was more then pleased to have me stay at their house since my father is never home and maybe needed some company. Sarah did tell me that she had told her father about my dad abusing me, I did get a bit angry but I forgave her. I know I can trust him with that dark secret, all he's done is helped me. Letting me stay at his house. Letting Max and I make music in the Music Room and everything else with preforming at school to performing at prom.

He's like the father I never had.

************

"Are you going to pack this?" Sarah holds up an old sweater I used to wear long ago when I was lost.

"No, thats going to the trash." I grab the sweater putting it into the 'Trash' box.

"Do you want to start a band? You know, go on tour with Michael and the rest." I ask Sarah while folding my Nirvana shirt.

"Are you fucking kidding me! I would love to! I've always wanted to be in a band." She says ecstatic jumping up and down my bed.

"Ok stop. You're going to break my bed!" She stop and looks at me

"Wait. Who's going to be our drummer? I play guitar so..."

"I know you do. Your father told me. I've already texted Max who plays the drums and he's happy to be part of this."

"Ok but what are we going to be called?"

"Don't worry about that. I've got it covered." I say smirking.

*************************

"Ok so is this the last one" Sarah asks as she puts in what seems to be the last bag. Shoot I almost forgot.

"Wait. Im forgetting something. I'll be right back." I jog into the house into the basement where I find the most valuable thing. My first guitar. Black acoustic with stickers from my mothers old favorite rock bands. Sadly, I haven't played it in over a year, it's sitting alone in the corner next to old boxes filled with junk.

I walk over to it picking it up and walked back upstairs. I walk out the door, locking it and walking over to Sarah's Range Rover, I open the door and hopped in.
