When I Lost You

Chapter 4

Hey I decided to do this Chapter in Luke’s POV so you can see how he feels

*Previously*

The stream. Collapsing to the ground I cried and cried and cried. Finally when I stopped crying after what seemed like hours I just sat cause what could I do I missed half of my classes. I couldn't show my face after I just punched Cara and walked away from the guy that I loved. Notice how I say loved because I mean absolutely positively nothing to him so why should I care for him. I was holding on to the thought that maybe the old Luke was somewhere inside there. The Luke that would tease me and laugh at my lame jokes, the Luke that accepted my weirdness accepted everything about me. I was holding onto that dream but today I realized that, that dream wasn't going to come true so I let go.

I let go of Luke.

Chapter 4

*Luke’s POV*

“Yes mom, I know mom, sure mom…” This seemed like a one sided conversation and all I needed to say was yes a bunch of times and she’s happy.

“Ok great! You will take Gabi to school now! Bye!” my mom said pushing me out of the door before I could protest.

“Looks like it’s you and me today kiddo.” I say looking down at my little sister.

Once in the car I turn on the radio to hear Diamonds by Rob Thomas playing it’s M-… no Luke don’t think about her just don’t. Quickly changing the song I relax finally settling in to my car starting it up.

“Ummm Luke…” Gabi says, she’s been so quiet I forgot she was there.

“Yes Gabi. What is it?” It’s strange she never is this quiet.

“Why don’t you hang out with Mia like you used to? You were best friends and she hasn’t come over in a long time and then I saw her at the park and I told her that I missed her and she misses me too.” Gabi says with such innocence if only she knew the reason why I don’t hang out with her.

“Well we aren’t friends any more”, hoping that it was a good enough answer for my 8 year old sister. 

“Why not?”

“Just because ok?” I say trying not to get mad.

“Ok. BYE LUKE!!” Gabi yells as she gets out of the car.

Wow that was a quick drive to school or was it the fact that I was daydreaming about Mia again. Why did I have to be so mean to her? She’s never done anything to me except ruin my chances of being popular. Ohh right… Well I have new friends now and besides I haven’t seen her in 3 months she might not go to the school any more. I thought as I hop out of my car.

Then an old all American two door pick-up truck comes into the parking lot I look away because that is the type of truck Mia always wanted not sure why when her parents are rich but she just always has.

Finding my phone I see a new message from my girlfriend Cara who I have been dating for 3 years. Yeah 3 whole years today after… no stop it Luke. Cara’s great but we both know it going to end after this year when we go away to college. Quickly replying I shove my phone in my pocket and bumped in to someone.

Immediately my arms went around her waist and shocks went up my arms. I was taken aback by her beauty and then I realized who this was. It was Mia she looked even more gorgeous than the last time I saw her. Her long brown hair that framed her tan face reaching her elbows, those big green blue eyes shut as she if she was waiting to hit the ground biting her pink lips in anticipation. She was petite and fit nicely in my arms as I looked at her she slowly opened her eyes. Knowing that this moment was over I had to act like I didn’t care for her anymore.
