ANGIE'S P.O.V

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I half opened my eyes, blinded by the sun shinning through my windows. I must've passed out on the couch while watching tv last night, the pillow where my head had been was covered in tear stains and makeup.

"H-hello" I tiredly pick up the phone.

"Angie!?" I hear Luke's voice from the other side of the phone "I've called you like 10 times. Michael told me what happened last night. Are you okay? Want me to come over?"

"No, no Luke I'm fine." Not really wanting any company, I just wanted to be alone. Then I remembered "oh shit. I need my car"

"Where is it?"

"It's at A-Andy's" I cringe at just saying his name.

"I'll come pick you up and we can go get it" with the sound of Luke's voice, it sounded like he really wanted to talk to me, and he wasn't going to take no for an answer.

"Okay"

............

Luke pulls into a coffee shop and I give him a death glare.

"Luke..."

"We're going to get a coffee and we're going to talk. I don't care what you say" I've never heard Luke sound so seriously before, so I do what he says and get out of the car and go into the coffee shop.

We order our drinks and sit down at the back of the coffee shop so we have privacy to talk.

"So what the hell happened last night?"

I told Luke everything that happened last night, right up to the part where I threw myself at Michael, I probably should have left that part out but once I started telling him everything, everything just poured out of my mouth.

"Wow." I look at him like 'that's all you have to say?'. There was a long awkward pause, I had nothing else to say, and Luke was just looking at me like he was thinking. "Can I be completely honest with you Angie?" I wanted nothing more than honesty. "When I first met you I thought you were the most amazing girl I have ever met, and I wanted nothing more than to be with you." His words took me by shock. "But as I got to know you, your sense of humour, your music taste, your way of giving advice, everything, just made me love you more, but as a sister because I realized you were exactly like Michael." Now I was a bit offended, I'm nothing like Michael. "And I realized, you two would be perfect together. When I saw you two meet for the first time I could see it in both of you, I mean you fucking shook his hand." He let out a little giggle. "And Michael hasn't stopped talking about you since he met you. You guys are meant to be. You are my two best friends, I know you more than anyone, and I know that you two are supposed to be together."

I took in everything Luke just said, and I have nothing to say. Did I like Michael? Did he like me? I don't know how I feel.

"I also know that you are still thinking about Canada and everything that happened. I won't make you talk about it, but I think you need help to forget."

"How can I forget about that, Luke!?" I half shouted at him getting upset because he knew what happened and I could never forget. How could anyone forget something like that?

HEYY! So I don't know if anyone is actually reading this... Probably not.. But if you are, comment what you think so far!! :))))
