Chapter 1.1

Chapter 1.1

||Alex P.O.V||

Luke is full on sassy and bossy when it comes to surprising his girlfriend..he has made us change the decorations on the garage 3 times and if he throws a fit again then I am going to strangle him..I swear.

"Okay, now Mikey pull that couch a bit left" Luke ordered and I wanted to throw that couch in his face.

Me and Michael just groaned and rearranged the couch for the gazillion time.

"Okay!! Perfect!! She'll be here any minute" he smiled wide.

We just all took a deep breath and crashed on the couch which earned each of us glare from Luke but we just ignored it cause me, Ashton , Calum and Michael were too tired for all that shit..

"Get up! She's here!!" Luke hissed and we just got up lazily and there she was..the birthday girl, if you will.

And she looked pretty! Worth a million dollar!!

"Happy Birthday!!" We all cheered in unison and she hugged Luke and kissed all over his face and stared at me...that's rude..i fucking helped to put this party together and she stares at me!! Then she hugs everyone but ME!

But I just took a deep breath and pushed away the negativity...deep breaths!

"ITS SO PRETTY" Cindy screamed when Luke handed her the earring and then rest of the boys had their jaws dropped to the floor, cause that shit was expensive.

Cindy wore it and kissed Luke and glared at me..seriously, what is it which her glaring at me?!! I fucking helped him get that earring..ungrateful much?

"Why don't you sit here! I have a song for you!" Luke sat her down on the couch as the other boys worked their instruments..I just stood beside the couch cause I DID NOT want to sit on that couch with her cause she might just kill me then and there.

After few minutes they were ready and you could tell that Luke was nervous and it was a rare sight to see Mr. Luke Hemmings sweating and huffing.

"Simmer down..simmer down.." Luke started and they all started playing.

"You look so perfect standing there in my American Apparel underwear" Luke continued and the moment he sang this , Cindy had a huge playful grin on her face and that made me sick.

Luke did not have to sing about their after sex moments..and now I have a mental picture!! Yuck! I can't get the thought of Cindy in Luke's underwear out of my head..thank you Lucas.

After the song was done Cindy scurried towards Luke and wrapped herself around him..Clingy much?

I walked towards the boys and opened a can of cola.

"It must suck" Michael said looking at me.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Well, you're the first girl that Luke brought down in practice but Cindy came in and topped it with a special song and a big ass earring!" Michael stated and Ashton and Calum added chains of "yeah"

"Whatever" I just shrugged and I felt a tap on my shoulder and I saw that it was Luke.

"Yeah?" I asked looking at him and he just fiddled through his pocket and brought out a little box and handed it to me. I just looked at him confused..was I suppose to give it to Cindy?? Did he buy her yet ANOTHER big ass jewelry??

"It's for you" Luke grinned and I opened the box to see a simple platinum arrow ring.

I just looked at him surprised.

"Well you don't wear any piece of jewelry and you said no one ever bought you one, so maybe this is a first step for you to maybe start wearing some jewelry and act like a girl" Luke winked at me.

"Thanks " I thanked all flustered.

"Don't worry, pup ! And I owe you one" He smiled and I pushed the ring down my index finger and thanked him and I saw the boys grinning wide and then my eyes met Cindy's . Oh if looks could kill then I'd be dead by now.

"Thanks" I thanked him yet again and he just winked at me and walked towards Cindy, who was beyond pissed..but she is the one who got a birthday surprise , a special song and a shitass expensive earring . I don't understand why she is burning holes staring at me.

"And she claims back her throne" Ashton giggles.

"seriously guys!!??" I laughed.

"Alex takes the reign" Calum adds and I just giggle.

"I'd rather you were his girlfriend , you're way fun then Candy Barbie" Michael laughed.

"Nah, I pretended to be his girlfriend and that was more than enough!" I laughed looking at Luke who was trying to calm the enraged Cindy down and then she just walked out.

I sighed and excused myself from the boys and walked out to find Cindy.

"Why are you here??" She snapped and I turned around to face a very angry Barbie.

"Nothing, I just saw you storm out,I just wanted to ask if everything was alright" I tried my best to be calm.

"Don't put up an act, bitch! You're trying to steal my Luke " she hissed.

Deep breaths..Take in..Breath out.

"I am not trying to steal anyone! Luke really likes you and I helped him find that perfect earring for him!! Don't let stupid things cloud your mind! I promise I am not trying to steal anything from you!! Seeing you and Luke together makes me really happy! He cares for you a lot, don't do this to him!" I explained myself.

"Yeah, that is why he bought you that ring" Cindy spat pointing at the ring on my finger.

"This is just a friendly gesture and it probably costs nothing compared to what he spent for you!" I sighed.

"Whatever..stay away from him" she snarled and walked back and was clinging back to Luke .

Luke just mouthed a thank you and I just smiled at him.

I was just cleaning up the mess in the garage cause the boys were wasted , except Luke who went off to drop Cindy off, so I decided to clean the place up and stacked up the plastic cups and plates.

"Thanks for what ever you did" I heard Luke from behind and I just tried a knot on the trash bag and dropped it down.

"Sure whatever! And next time you buy me something just don't give it to me in front of Cindy, she might just claw me with her long nails" I joked but apparently he didn't get the joke.

"She wouldn't do that! Why do you hate her so much?" He asked annoyed.

I don't hate her, it's her who hates me! But Luke is too blind to see that and is lashing out on me.

"Whatever, I gotta go" I shrugged cause I just had no energy to fight so I just grabbed my bag.

"Bye" I walked out

I walked back home and had a long phone call with Kate and Faye and they complained that I was ditching them, which I was NOT!! We had an hour long phone call and then they babbled about their boyfriends which reminded me of Luke and I just shrugged away the thoughts and said my goodbye and hung up the phone and laid down in my bed and let my mind go wild.

Luke had no right lashing out on me, when Cindy is the one that goes all crazy on me!! I was just trying to make them Happy together but both of them have their heads up their asses that they can't see anything.

I just sighed and decided to sleep...reality sucks!!
