Could He Be The One? ⇾l.hemmings [completed]

♪ Chapter 15 ♪

As we sat down I ran my finger across my left cheek, the one my dad had hit me. I winced at the throbbing pain steering through my face, I closed my other fist hoping Luke didn't see.

Unfortunately he did, Luke grabbed my arm and turned me so that I would face him. His big blue eyes sparkled in the dim light but his eyebrows were furrowed.

"Mr.Hemmings, is there something you want to share with the class?" The teacher called. Luke hadn't even spoken yet and he was getting in trouble. "It's my fault sir, I was talking. He was just asking if I would be quite." I spoke up. Luke grabbed my hand and flashed me worried look. Mentally I knew what he was asking. What are you doing? I looked at him, my eyes softened and he understood.

"Well come up here and get a pass to the office. Talking is not aloud in my class." I got up but as I started to walk off Luke whispered in my ear, "Talk to me during lunch." I nodded and got the pass to the office.

"And why were talking during class Lauren?" The principal questioned.

"Because I had already learned the lesson in N.Y." I answered her.

"That doesn't mean you talk to the other students. Now I will be giving you a 2 day detention." She handed me a pink slip that read detention on it. I sighed and walked out the door. I had been in there for two hours. Two hours, of class that I had missed.

I walked down to the lunch room, looking for Luke.l I sat at a corner table eyeing the nasty cafeteria food. Guess I'll starve today. I thought to myself.

Kayla sat next to me and looked at my wrist. It was completely covered but the way I was holding my jacket gave it all away. "No, Lauren. No don't hurt yourself." She said plucking up my jacket sleeve.

"Damn." I mumbled to myself. "How could you tell?" I asked pulling the sleeve down. She rolled her eyes and pointed to the blood stain that was now on my jacket. I put my head in my hands and shook my head. "No one was supposed to now about this." I cracked through an oncoming sob.

"Lauren! Hey, you promised me you would tell me what was going on." Luke said jogging up to our table. From the corner of my eyes I saw Kayla shake her head and give him a warning look. I looked up and stepped away from my seat. "Come on." I said pulling Luke after me.

We stopped in front of the vending machine down by our first period class. "So what's going on? Why are you so upset today?" Luke intertwined our fingers together, I starred at the ground not saying a word.

I lifted my head showing Luke the bruise that took over my face, the throbbing pain still tugging at my skin. "Lauren, who did this?" He asked pulling his hand up to my cheek.

"My dad, we got in an argument yesterday. When I got home from the Lake." I mumbled. He pulled me in for hug, stroking my hair and swaying back and forth. I pulled away and looked at him. His big blue eyes had a spark when he looked at me. It felt like amnesia when I'm with him, I forget all of the stupid little things.

Luke pressed his lips to my bruised cheek and then brought his lips down to mine. They were warm and soft, just like yesterday's kiss. I mustered up a small smile against his lips.

"Wow Luke, care to introduce us to your new friend." Michael, Ashton, and Calum were all watching us. I looked at them and blushed. Calum and Ashton satires at each other mouths hung open and eyes darting back and forth between Luke and I.

He laughed and wrapped one arm around my waist. "Guys this is Lauren, Lauren this is Ashton, Calum, and Michael." I gave a small wave and then looked at the ground, my cheeks grew warm.

"Come on lads,we all better get to class." Calum suggested. We all agreed and headed to our next class
