Chapter 8

"x+26=52, x=24, done!!" I've finally finished my math homework, and now I was going to go talk to Luke. Ever since that night I had with Cameron, he's been avoiding me, and I'm going to go find out why.

I hopped along the stairs and entered the kitchen. There, Luke was in his undershirt and flannel pajama pants with his bed head, just looking at Ashton in disgust as he put Vegemite on the toast. He scrunched up his face when Ashton took a bite from the toast. I shut the door swiftly shut behind me, making a loud thud in the process, catching their attention. Luke's disgusted face did not change at all when he looked at me. What the hell did I do? I started to walk towards them and Luke immediately ran the other way, out the door.
"What was that all about?" asked Ashton, with his mouth full.
"I don't know, but I'm about to find out." I ran out the kitchen at the exact moment Luke was heading out the front door.
"FREEZE!!!"
Simultaneously, a burst of multiple men's voices erupted through the
house with an "everybody clap your hands!!!," then began clapping their hands. I rolled my eyes, toward a sighing Luke. I closed the door, while pointing to the couch, motioning him to go sit down.
"What do you want, Skylar?!" he spat venomously.
"Okay, stop. Stop acting like I know what I did wrong, okay? If you have something to fucking say, say it!!" I said, using the same tone.
"You're so fucking confusing!!!"
"What do you mean?!" I said, my patience limiting.
"I mean, one minute you act like you like me and the next your dating some actor." he said, as calmly as he could.
"I wasn't acting, Luke." I whispered.
"What?"
"I said, I wasn't acting."
"Then why are you dating Cameron?"
"Because I like him"
"Wha-?!"
"Look, Luke, since the day I've met you, I've had a really big crush on you but, since Cameron came into the picture, I've kinda pushed my feelings for you aside an-" I was cut off by a door slamming shut and, not seeing Luke in front of me. I went to go after Luke, when strong hands caught me, preventing me from doing so.
"Let him cool off" I heard my dad's calming voice.
"But he-"
"No, Sky, I know Luke, he just needs time to cool off. I don't know what happened but, he seems pretty worked up, so it's best to keep your distance form him for while." I sighed, but agreed.
"Anyway, I got a surprise for you." I don't know what he thinks can make me happy at a time like this.
"Surprise!!!" I look up and see nothing there, until a figure appears next to him.
"Pamela?!"

A/N Hello beautiful kittens. I've finally written the next chapter for this story, that y'all seem to like. It's taken me forever because, since I've started my science fair project, I've been very busy. The project requires me to weigh and measure the height of the project each hour but not every hour. Like 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 16, 1 day etc. for two weeks and that takes a lot of my time. Anyway, have a wonderful night, my Crazy Mofos ~Sky
