change [luke]

thirteen days before

The boys had invited me to yet another band practice but I didn't know whether it was a good idea to go or not. I didn't particularly want to sit and listen Luke sing love songs. Actually, I didn't really wanna sit and listen to Luke in general. I was trying to completely swipe him from my mind but it was seeming impossible. However, Michael always gets his way no matter what and I found myself strolling down the familiar street towards Michael's house in no particular rush. It was cool tonight. A slight wind picked up ruffling my hair in different directions. It was probably the coldest it had been in Australia since I landed and I wasn't sure if I liked it or not. Once I reached the front porch of Michael's house I pushed open the door and stepped inside. He informed me that once again he was home alone so I was free to walk in without knocking. I found my way towards the basement door and opened it quietly.

"Calum your such a dick mongeler give it back"

I chuckled lowly finally reaching the end of the steps to see Calum standing on a high chair with Michael's black iPhone in his hand. A wide smirk stretched across his face.

"Is mongeler even a word?" I asked, smirking at the two. Calum stood down off the chair and smiled at me.

"Hey Aimi, how are you?" He asked handing Michael back his phone. Michael muttered something incoherent as he stalked back to his place on the couch. My eyes wandered over to a very bored looking Luke who had his head down scrolling through what looked like twitter.

"I'm good cal pal, how are you?" I giggled at what I had just called him. He rolled his eyes following me to the couch where the boys were sat. Ashton waved up at me as he was on the phone to someone and couldn't speak. I smiled back and took a seat on the stool beside the coffee table.

"Hello to you too Clifford" I scoffed jokingly.

"My darling Aimi I'm so glad you could make it to our wonderful dress rehearsals. Refreshments will be served afterwards at the local Panda Express" He mocked in a posh voice, patting my knee. Calum started laughing loudly plopping himself on the armchair beside the couch.

"I would hope so Mr Clifford" I mocked back, earning a playful wink from him. I looked at Luke once more but he now had his full attention on me, a content look surrounding his features. I smiled his way and he quickly returned the smile before retreating back to his phone.

"So you guys going to rehearse or no?" I raised an eyebrow. Ashton had finally finished his call and stood up.

"Aims is right maybe it's time we started doing something productive" He announced making his way over to the drums. Luke quickly followed grabbing his guitar on the way. Calum threw me a wide grin making his way over to the rest of the boys.

"What are you guys performing?" I asked.

"A song Luke wrote like during this week. It's called Voodoo Doll I think" Michael answered.

(a/n i dont actually know when voodoo doll was written i just made it up dont hurt me please)

To say 5 Seconds of Summers popularity changed overnight was an understatement. They had each gained thousands of followers after the One Direction boys tweeted about their Teenage Dirtbag cover. It was crazy. Girls from all over Europe, America and even places like Asia were tweeting them hysterically for follows and tweets. It was absolute mania. Their EP had sold hundreds more copies in the past week. It was overwhelming to say the least.

"Oh, sounds nice" I smiled at Luke. He stared blankly at me for a moment before putting his attention back onto the guitar. Michael frowned at his actions and shook his head slightly.

After they had finished tuning their instruments they played an intro to the song, messing up a few times because it was one of the first times they were playing it. After a little bit they got it right though.

"Well I don't even like you why'd you want to, go and make me feel this way?"

"And I don't understand what's happened I keep, saying things I never say"

Luke sang the first verse so passionately. He must have wrote it for Aleisha or something. It was a pretty nice song to say the least. They paused for a moment to give Michael time to adjust to the chord change. He chuckled playing around trying to remember the notes.

"I can feel you watching even when you're no where to be seen,

and I can feel you touching even when you're far away from me"

I was sort of gobsmacked. I never knew Michael could sing. From the EP I listened to, Calum and Luke sang everything. I smiled warmly at him giving him a thumbs up.

"Tell me where you're hiding your voodoo doll cuz I can't control myself,

I don't wanna stay, I wanna run away but I'm trapped under your spell

And it hurts in my head and my heart and my chest and I'm having trouble catching my breath.. "

As Luke did harmony for the chorus he stared me straight in the eyes, as if it was only me and him in the room. No one else. Only he was playing guitar, only he was singing. I was completely mesmerised.

"Won't you please stop loving me to death"

He finally broke away from the staring competition we were having and looked down at the sheet ahead of him to see what chords were next. I took this as an opportunity to stare down at their shoes trying to steady my breathing.

Luke had this effect on me like no other boy in my entire life had. He was different and completely loveable. He made me want to cry yet laugh at the same time. I've known this boy for two weeks now but he's made me feel every single emotion I never dreamed of feeling.

I just wish I could tell him.

Luke's POV

Shit shit shit holy shit she knows I'm singing about her I may aswell move to Poland and change my name because she's onto me. Yet, in my defence I didn't even know I was writing about her until I finished. Lyrics just sort of spill from me they could be about anything like most of the time I completely zone out while writing.

She lowered her head and stared towards our legs after I finally broke away from staring at her. I didn't have any control over myself when Aimi was around. I couldn't help it. She had this odd effect on me. I like Aleisha and all, she's pretty and she's nice but at the same time I feel like I made a big mistake.. unfortunately Aleisha could never make me feel the way Aimi makes me feel.

When she laughs she throws her head back slightly with her mouth agape. When she's upset she stares into open space and twitches her nose from side to side, a small frown always etched across her features. She has to have two glasses of orange juice one after another, she can never have just one. She chain smokes a lot when she's stressed. For the past week I've heard her balcony door open at the small hours of the morning and her small feet pad across the floor. I know shes smoking because I leave my balcony window open sometimes and every so often I'll wake up with a smell of smoke still slightly prominent in the air.

I noticed everything Aimi Reynolds did and everything she said. I noticed her actions and the small things that not many others would notice about her.

I noticed everything.

I even noticed how she doesn't love me half as much as I love her.

Well not anymore anyways...
