➸luke's pov

As I walked away from the school I heard footsteps behind me, I wanted to turn around but I knew it was Sky so I just kept walking away. I began to walk down the sidewalk that would lead to my house. Halfway through the walk, I became annoyed with Skylar following me from so far behind instead of catching up like usual. I quickly spun around on my heel and I was instantly shocked with what I saw. There was no Skylar.

It was Calum.

I stood there wide-eyed as I waited for him to say something, but all he did was stand and stare back at me. All the muscles in his arms were bulging and he was shaking he was so tense. Soon, I grew fearful that Calum was about to beat me up. Just as I was about to spin back around and run as fast as I could, he finally spoke up.

"You're that Luke kid." He said it more as a statement instead of a question. I swallowed my fearful thoughts and spoke back. "Uh, yeah. Why?" Calum took a step closer, I almost took a step back but my ego refused. "Are you dating Skylar Pierce?" The question made me want to punch him. I wanted him to fuck off at this point. She was mine, or going to be. I can't have him ruining it.

"Uh no." I could visibly see his body relax and he had a smug smile on his face now. "Good. Because I'm planning on taking her out on a date soon." I immediately deflated. I wanted to punch him, but then again I wanted to go cry, because let's be honest, there's no way Sky will pick me over Calum. God, I'm such a mess right now.

I could feel a painful lump in my throat begin to form as I spoke. "You- you are?" Calum's smile only grew larger at my weak state. "Yeah, I am. Probably this Friday actually. It's going to be amazing." I couldn't handle listening to him gush about how he was going to steal my girl right from underneath me. I turned around quickly and began to stumble home. I could hear Calum chuckle and his footsteps faded.

I tripped over almost everything on the way home because I couldn't see anything through the tears in my eyes that were threatening to spill. In record time I was home and slamming my bedroom door shut and falling onto the floor. I was too much of a mess to pick my self up. So I laid down and finally, the tears began falling. I sobbed. I sobbed because I know that I am going to lose Skylar soon, and I will be just a friend forever. I will never be able to show her how much she has meant to me. I will never be able to make her feel beautiful.

Instead of me, Calum will do those things.

I began to cry harder, and I laid there and sobbed with tears staining my cheeks and snot running down my nose for what felt like eternity. Until I couldn't cry anymore and sleep took me over.

•*•*•*•

I groggily pulled myself out of sleep and slowly opened my eyes. It was almost pitch black in my room, so I blinked a few times in hopes for my eyes to adjust soon. Once they finally did, I was greeted with a comforting sight.

Sky was fast asleep next to me on the floor. All the blankets on my bed had been ripped off and laid around us and over us. She had one arm draped around me, and her face was buried in my chest. I could hear her light snores and her fingers would slightly twitch occasionally.

I took advantage of the moment to get a good look at her in her most peaceful state. Her hair was strewn across my chest, some in her face. Her arm that was draped across from me would slightly twitch at times which for some reason I found adorable. Her eyelids would flutter almost every time she would exhale a breath.

I looked at her slightly parted lips. Her bottom lip would tremble slightly every few seconds and I had to restrain myself from stroking her cheek with my hand or kissing her soft lips. I slowly raised my hand and gently stroked Skylar's silky hair. I ran my fingers through her hair and turned my head to the side and began to close my eyes.

For right now at this moment, it was just me and Sky. And that's all I needed. There's no Calum, there's nobody else in this world to me. Just me and Skylar, together. It's all I want. I continued to stroke Skylar's hair and soon I dropped my hand I fell into a deep sleep.

Hii sorry if it took me a while to update and sorry if this is short. I've been busy the past three weekends and I haven't gotten the evenings to myself thanks to school. And sorry if this chapter is kinda bad :/
