Cold Feet

Chapter Five

Luke's POV:

Walking out of the locker room, I slammed the door closed.

I couldn't stand being in there any longer after what Ari said. That fucking bitch acted as if I meant nothing to her. And maybe I don't, maybe I've been fooled by her just so she could have a good fuck or something. Either way I don't care.

Okay I do, I care a lot. I care because Ari means-meant the world to me.

Ari and I have been secretly seeing each other for the past two months. The reason we've kept our relationship a secret is because my group of friends obviously didn't get along with her group of friends and we didn't want shit to happen.

But I guess that's over now since I'm just 'shameless fun' to Ari. God she such a bitch.

Okay, I didn't mean that but I'm pretty pissed right now.

Walking out the front doors, I made my way across the parking lot, towards my pitch black Aston Martin.

Hopping inside, I slammed my door closed and whacked my head against the steering wheel, groaning.

I know we'd only been together for two months but I really liked her. Ari was stunning, with her hazel but brown hair, bright blue eyes, and cute petite body.

I felt a smile make it's way on my face and I couldn't stop it. Just thinking about her made me smile.

Damn I'm whipped.

Iris' POV:

Before any of us could process anything, we heard the locker room door open and male voices filling in the tense air.

"W-whoa, what are you the beauty's doing in here?" I heard Liam ask, winking.

Deciding to play along, I smirked. "I don't know about them, but I came in here just so I could see your fine ass after basketball practice."

Liam chuckled, resting his hand above my head, leaning in towards me, "Is that so?"

I have to admit, Liam looked really good after practice. Sweat dripping down his face, body flushed, and did I mention he was shirtless?

"Oh knock it off, let's leave before these pigs try to rape you," Niall said, sounding disgusted.

Patting Liam back, I smiled at him and made my way out the door.

"So...what do you guys wanna do now?" Ari asked once we out in the hallway.

Stopping abruptly, causing me to bump into her, Jess turned and glared at Ari.
"I would like you to fucking explain what's going on between you and Luke," she stated firmly.

Ari rolled her eyes, "Didn't I already tell you? It's just a bit of fun is all," she said, shrugging.

"Oh cut the crap! If it was just fun and games, then explain why Luke stormed out pissed?!" Niall yelled, clearly getting angry.

Ari let out a huge sigh. It was silent for a small while until she spoke up, "I don't see how this is any of your business," she replied, not making eye contact with any of us.

Okay, now I was getting fed up.

"It is when it involves someone I care about. So stop acting like a little bitch and tell us what's going on," Niall snapped.

Well damn.

Ari glared at Niall and suddenly reached out and slapped him.

"What the hell Ari?!" I yelled. Things were getting way out of hand for something that isn't that important.

"Well sorry Iris! Sorry that I don't want others to know about my love life! Sorry that Mr. Nosey can't stay out of my fucking business, okay!" Ari started screaming.

Jess stepped up to her and began rubbing her arm, "Not trying to be rude or anything, but you need to calm down."

Ari's POV:

"I fucked it up," I whispered.

Jess cleared her throat, "What?"

I sighed, "With Luke, I fucked it up with Luke."

I felt pangs in my chest finally letting reality hit me. Luke probably doesn't want to speak to me anymore and I don't blame him.

"Look, I've lied to you guys about Luke and I. Truth be told, Luke and I have been together for the past two months and I seriously just screwed my chances with him," I said, guiltily.

Niall actually smiled at me for once, "The pond," was all he said.

I furrowed my eyebrows, "Pond?"

Niall chuckled, "Luke texted me, he's at the pond. Go there and try to apologize because trust me, you've got that boy whipped."

I felt my face flush and I smiled.

"Thank you," I mouthed, already heading out the door.

Looks like I'm heading to the pond.
