“Ew! Who even is she?” “Luke so deserves someone better, like me lol” “Luke’s going out with that?” “Get away from my husband you slut.” Those were some of the tweets I woke up to. My mentions were blowing up. I had no idea how they found me. It stung; I’m not going to lie, especially when these people had no idea who I was. I felt tears rolling down my cheeks and fall onto my lap.
“Gab! You’re up!” Ally squealed jumping from her bed and bouncing onto the one I shared with Miranda, who was probably taking a shower since she was nowhere to be seen. “You’re crying!” Ally gasped when she noticed the tears staining my cheeks. “What’s wrong, babe?” She wrapped her arms around my shoulders and held me tight in an embrace.
I handed her my phone, biting my bottom lip to hold down a sob. She scrolled through and said, “You have got to be shitting me. VERONICA! MIRANDA! Get your butts here NOW!”
“What? What happened?” Miranda ran in after Veronica. “Baby! Are you okay?” Both of them ran towards me and hugged me as well. Ally showed them my phone and they were staring at the screen wide-eyed.
“The fuck is this shit?” Veronica swore obscenity after obscenity.
“WAKEY WAKEY!” The boys burst into the room right at that moment all dressed up and ready for their show which was supposed to start in about 4 hours. They started jumping and giggling and being all goofy until they realized that we weren’t joining in.
“What is wrong with you guys?” Ashton asked confused. “Not your time of the month all at once right?” His eyes went wide as he slapped a hand onto his mouth as the other guys just stared at him.
“The fuck, Ashton!” Michael slapped Ashton at the back of his head.
“Gabby? What’s wrong, Princess?” Luke asked, his blue eyes full of concern, as he stepped away from the boys and towards us instead.
“Look at this.” Miranda sighed as she handed over my phone to Luke, who sat on the bed next to me, and then she asked the others to give me and Luke some privacy and they all stepped out of the room closing the door behind them.
As soon as I heard the door close, I broke down. I couldn’t help it. Tears started flowing out of my eyes and I started hiccupping. I didn’t want Luke to see me like this, but the tears just wouldn’t stop. No one had ever bullied me before and it hurt when people who didn’t even know me did.
- Luke’s POV -
I was going through the tweets on Gabriella’s profile and I was disgusted. They had called her a slut. This innocent girl was called a slut. I couldn’t believe that people who were supposed to be my fans, my family, would call my girlfriend a slut. That wasn’t all. There was so much more that I don’t want to mention. I was so close to bursting from anger when I heard Gabriella breaking down.
I looked up at her and saw tears flowing down her cheeks. Her eyes were puffy and she started hiccupping. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her close to me, engulfing her in a tight hug as she cried into my chest. I felt tears prickling at my eyes. How the fuck could they do this to her? I thought, my jaw clenched. My heart shattered as I watched her cry knowing it all happened thanks to my fame and carelessness. How I wish I wasn’t famous right now.
“Princess,” I finally spoke up and she looked up at me, eyes full of tears and cheeks stained, “I’m sorry.” My voice came out as a whisper and she reached up to my cheek and wiped away a tear. I had cried without even realizing. “How dare they say things like that about you? They don’t even know you. I’m so sorry it’s all my fault.” I rambled on and took out my phone from my pocket and went to my twitter profile.
I entered, “Leave her alone. She’s the most amazing, beautiful, caring and funniest girl I’ve met. She’s my girlfriend and I love her more than life itself. So if you guys are my fans and if you love me, then love her too.” and pressed enter.
I looked up at Gabriella after keeping my phone on her bedside table and saw that she was smiling.
“What are you smiling at?” I poked my tongue out at her.
“That was really sweet of you, Luke.” She kissed my cheek making me smile. I gave her a peck on the lips and dug out a long black velvet box from the backpack I had with me. I handed it to her as she looked at me with a confused look on her face. “What’s this?”
“Oh just open it!” I grinned lopsidedly, eager for her to see it.
“Oh, Luke!” she gasped as she stared at what was inside the box.
- Gabriella’s POV -
“Oh, Luke!” I gasped as I stared at what was inside the box. It was a cute little silver necklace with a penguin pendant. It was the cutest thing I had ever seen and I was in complete awe. “I… I don’t know what to say.”
“Do you like it?” he asked grinning nervously.
“Like it? I love it, Luke!” I jumped onto him and gave him a tight hug. “I want to put it on! Help me?” I handed him the necklace, turned around and lifted my hair up. He placed the necklace around my neck and locked it firmly. I felt his hot breath on my neck sending chills down my back. Once he was done I turned around and looked down admiringly at the little penguin.
“I’m giving you this,” Luke spoke making me look up at him, “because if you ever feel down when I’m not around; know that I’ll always be there for you, wherever you are.” He smiled. “We both like penguins so I thought it could be our little sign, you know? Sign of our love.”
“You’re so cheesy and cute, it’s sickening.” I joked as I squeezed his cheeks.
“Well, at least you think I’m cute.” He stated before crashing his lips onto mine.
