~ ALYSSA'S POV ~

I woke up around 5:30 and headed off to the park down the road. It was cold and early but I didn't care, I wanted to be there before anyone else. I sat On a bench facing a little lake filled with care-free birds. It almost annoyed me how they didn't have to go through things like this. How could they get to live so freely? Why Can't we live like that? It's not really fair. God I sounded like such a child.

I thought back to what I came here for. I thought about dad, and what he had done. Honestly, I really had to talk to him about it before I can forgive him. It was pretty bad, but it might have been the alcohol. Or maybe something happened with his "girlfriend". But none of that is really an excuse for beating your own daughter. Isn't he supposed to love and care for me? Not yell and beat me? Correct me if i'm wrong here cause seriously, I need to talk it over with him, before making any major decisions.

I decided to think about Luke. I wanted to see him. Badly. I checked my twitter and I saw that they were in Tasmania doing shows. I could always go and see them without them seeing me. I jumped up and raced down the street back to the hotel. I grabbed my laptop and bought tickets for tonight as soon as they came on sale. I was quite happy with my plan, but I was nervous. I was determined to see Luke, whether he saw me or not.

________________________________________________________________

It was almost time to go. I got up off the couch and went to my suitcase. I pulled out a Black skater skirt, A black bustier and my black converse. I walked into the bathroom to have a shower. When I got out I grabbed my make up bag and started blow drying my hair. I curled it and then brushed it out so that it was perfectly wavy. It fell limp on one side of my chest.

Next I moved onto my makeup. I managed to do a perfect smoky eye with matching black liquid liner. I powdered my face and added mascara, before putting on a glossy neutral lipstick. I thought I looked pretty good so I headed out. The stadium was only a couple of blocks away. A noisy van pulled out of my hotel and drove past me on the way. It was strangely familiar, but I shook it off.

I arrived at the stadium and headed in. I was actually quite early so I was in the mosh pit close to the stage. I thought about Luke and I couldn't wait to see him. Better yet, to see him doing what he loved. After the stadium had filed up I heard people screaming for 5sos' to come out. I heard the first few beats of heartbreak girl and started to cheer. The boys ran out on stage and started singing heartbreak girl. After that they did unpredictable and Good girls are bad girls before slowing down and grabbing some seats probably to do a slower song. While the boys were setting up Michael caught my eye. He noticed me and nudged Luke. I looked down at Luke and then back up seeing that he was still looking. Tears formed in my eyes and I looked away. The boys finished setting up and sat down. Luke started to speak.

"I wrote this song, for someone really close to me that I've missed a lot. Like a lot, a lot." The guitar started.

"For a while we pretended, That we'd never have to end it but we knew we'd have to say goodbye

You were crying at the airport, When they finally closed the plane door, I could barely hold it all inside

Torn in two

And I know I shouldn't tell you but I just can't stop thinking of

You, Wherever you are,

You, wherever you are

Every night I almost call you just to say it always will be

You, Wherever you are"

Luke looked directly at me while Calum started to sing. I got glares from other girls. I felt a hot tear run down my face before more came. I pushed through the crowd to leave. I heard the song continue as I rushed out. I walked into the bathroom and fixed my face. I gave the entry man a smile as I left. I started to walk back to the hotel. The concert was pretty much over anyways right? About half an hour later I got back to the hotel. The elevator was out of order so I began Walking up the stairs. I heard low talking and steps behind me but I ignored it, figuring that it was just some other people walking up too. I stopped when I heard my name though. I turned around to face them. And of course it was the boys. Luke had tears running down his face. I ran straight to him and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I missed you so much" I whispered.

I pulled back a little before connecting our lips. I had missed this. It was perfect.

"I love you" He whispered.

"I love you too" I said.

We walked hand in hand back upstairs and I went to sleep in Luke's room. I just really wanted to cuddle him. I took off my converse and clothes before quickly grabbing one of Luke's T-shirts. It went to my mid thigh so it was perfect. I hopped into bed and soon felt warm arms wrap around me. I snuggled in closer to Luke. I slowly fell asleep.

I woke up the next morning with light streaming in through the window. I was still wrapped in Luke's warm embrace. The knot that had been in my stomach for the past few weeks was gone. I was back here with him. I felt home sick just being away from him. I got up to go to the bathroom. I came back in and was about to go out to the kitchen when I saw Luke, smiling up at me. He was shirtless lying in the bed. He looked so happy. He lifted up the covers a little before saying;

"Come back to bed"

It jumped back in with him and hugged him tightly. This time, I was not going to let him go.
