*LUKE'S POV*

"Lucas, come down! Like NOW!" mum shouts from downstairs at me. She decides, since I'm grounded, she's going to take me to school every morning. Well, now I really have to go there. I used to leave the house, but most of the time we went to Michael's house, since his house was the only one, which were empty that soon in the morning. The others of us have siblings, so it was basically impossible. Now mum takes me to school in the morning and one of my brothers are supposed to pick me up. She even took my car keys. What a bitch.

I get off of the car in front of school. Boys are already there standing and waiting for me. "Momma's boy" Michael spits at me. "Shut the fuck up" I yell at him. "Lucas! Behave!" mum shouts from the car. I still can't believe she's doing this. I'm 18, what does she think? She will wait in the car every single morning until I will not enter the school. So I did.

The first thing my eyes stop in the school hall is the locker. Her locker. I don't think about anything else. I need to hold her. I need to kiss her. I need to show everyone she's mine, only mine. The most amazing girl on this planet and in the whole galaxy is mine. I smile for myself. "Hey pretty face" I say and lean against someone's locker. "Hi" she looks at me and smile. I love the way she smiles. When her lips smile her eyes are smiling too. That's what I love about her. Of course it's not the only thing. I love everything about her. Every single inch of her body. Her hair, her nose, her ears, her neck, ehm, you know, just everything.

The only thing which I really mind is that sex abstinence. It was my choice, not hers. After what I did to her, I'm scared if I would try to touch her like this she would be disgusted and starts to fight with me and not talking to me. That's what I don't want to happen.

I look around the hall. There's almost no one here. Almost everyone is in the class, because it starts soon. "Come with me" I whisper and grasp her wrist. "I can't Luke. It's almost the beginning of the class. I don't want to be late" she protests. I roll my eyes, "c'mon, it's just an English history, you're good at it. You're not going to miss anything important" she starts to explore me by her look. "I don't want to get in trouble" she hesitates. "We won't be in trouble. I promise" she nods. Yes, I persuade her to go with me.

*LACEY'S POV*

I don't have any idea where is he taking me, but I trust him. All I know we're going up and up and up. I was never in this part of school. Where the hell are we going? Then he suddenly stops "wait here" he says and leave me here.

It seems just like few seconds until he comes back. "Where are we?" I ask him. He grins at me "in school" and he bite his bottom lip just at the same place where his lip ring is placed. Then he reaches out to my bag and pull my scarf out of it. What the hell? He then goes behind me and put the scarf right on my eyes. "I can't see anything Luke" I hear him try to keep the laughter inside him, but he can't. Sometimes he acts pretty childish. "That's, I don't want you to see it just right the second we come there. It's not a surprise then" he says and smiles. I can't see him smiling, but I know he does. "And how do you expect me to go on the stairs? I can't see anything" I protest, because I really hate when I can't see what's going on, but he's really trying to surprise me, so I don't want to ruin that. "Don't worry, I'll carry you up" he says and starts to lifting me up on his arms. And then it happened.

I got flashbacks from that night he raped me. I start to pushing him away and bang into his chest and begging him to put me down. "Luke, please, put me down. Please" I feel like the tears start to run down my face.

*LUKE'S POV*

"Hold on babe, we're almost there" I say with no idea what's going on. She starts to banging with her fists in my chest and then I spot a tear running down her cheek. Last 3 steps. I put her down on her feet, rip off the scarf from her eyes and pull her into a hug. She buries her head into my chest. After few minutes I pull out of the hug and look at her. I wipe the tears away from her face. I hate to see her crying. "Hey, what happened? Did I do something wrong? Please tell me" but she just shakes her head and cross her cheeks with her hands. I guess she just wanted to dry them. "I'm good, really. What do you want to show me?" she turns around and her jaw drops down as it's possible. She stands there with a mouth wide open. I put my finger on her chin and lift it up "just in case the bees are around" I laugh, but what happened just makes me feel uncomfortable. I taker hand and pull her to the roof.

I found this roof garden like a year ago. It's amazing place. It reminds me the roof garden from High School Musical. Oh, well, that's a bullshit. "It's amazing" she say and kiss me. "I know" I nod. "But, will you tell me what happened a while ago?" I ask her. I need to know what was that about.

*LACEY'S POV*

I am looking at him. I don't want to tell him, but he's going to ask until I won't. "Nothing important" I shrug, "I guess my body just got a reminder of your hand from that night." He turns around and put his hand into his hair "fuck! That's exactly what I didn't want to happen" he sigh. "Luke, it's okay. Don't worry. I'm fine. We are fine" I smile at him and hope he will calm down. "No, it's not fine. You don't get it, but I regret that every single day. I think about every single time. This is what I don't want to happen. I don't want you to be scared of me. I don't want you to be disgusted by me" he says. It really hits him. "Hey hey hey, I'm not scared, I'm not disgusted. Just stop think about it. Yeah, it happened and we can't change it, but we can forget about it" I come closer to him and hug him.

*LUKE'S POV*

I hug her back. She's the best what could happen in my life. "You don't have any idea how much I wish I could forget about what I did. How terrible I did hurt you. And then that I made up my own version and keep the truth for myself. You didn't deserve this and you still don't. You don't deserve a guy like me. You deserve someone better" I mumble in her hair and pull out of the hug. I pick up my backpack, look at her and make my way down the stairs to the class. I should tell her about it. I should. She deserves to know.
