Hi! Ummmmm soooo this weekend, I will not be posting anything! O.o I will be on the dreaded vacation that I am forced to, every year, partake in… SHIT! Why do my parents have to love Hatteras! Hate it. Anyway… I will try to get as much stuff as I possibly can, and yes I would overwork myself just for you guys! Awwwww… (Eh…) Anyway, here is the newest chapter of the day "Chapter 5"! (dum dum dummm)…


CHAPTER 5

Yeah right, I thought to myself. We arrived at Luke's house it looked much different with the sun shining on it. Me and Luke, who still had my arm, followed slowly behind the rest of the boys. We made our way into his house and went into the kitchen.

"Deven, James, why are we in my kitchen?" Luke questioned.

James reached into a jar on the counter, and stuffed something into his mouth, " Your mom makes awesome cookies." He said.

Someone walked into the kitchen. He eyes lit up when she saw Luke. She ran over to him and gave him a giant hug. "K mom, I can't breathe." Luke said painfully.

"Oh I'm sorry sweetie, you've just been gone for so long." She said.

"It's only been a month mom!" Luke exclaimed. "We ran into some problems, someone can't seem to stay out of trouble." He looked at me.

"Oh! A girlfriend! My little Luke is growing up!" She turned to me. She was young and beautiful and her golden eyes were full of life and had the same twinkle in them just like Luke's eyes. Her hair was curly and black. She looked just like a girl form of Luke except for the wild clothing and unearthly hair coloring and style.

"No not a girlfriend! Just a friend that happens to be a girl! I was at the hospital with her and her sleepy ass!" Luke joked.

"That's coma ass to you butt wipe." James joined in as he put his arm around me in a joking manner. Mrs.

Marks just stood there like she was used to it, she probably was.

"I'm Alex Cook." I shouted over the noise.

She took my hand in hers and said, "I'm Leslie Marks, you can call me Leslie if you'd like, all of Luke's friends do..."

"Thank you." I replied, her eyes sparkled.

Once James and Luke had settled down, they made their way to the living room to watch TV. Luke saw me standing in the kitchen watching them and got up and walked over to me. He said nothing. He just grabbed my hand and I followed him down the narrow hallway to his room. There were tons of rock band posters on the walls, and almost all of his room was black. He closed the door. "I have, probably, one of the best views in the entire country." He whispered, putting a finger to my lips.

He led me up some stairs in the corner of his room. When we reached what he was talking about, he spread his arms out and smiled. It was beautiful. The stars were all out, covering an endless grassy plain, but there were faint pinks on the horizon like the sun had not yet set. I looked into his beautiful golden eyes. They looked hopeful. "It's beautiful." I replied. There wasn't much else I could say about the breathtaking sight before me.

"This is where I go to escape reality." He said calmly. He laid down on some pillows that were at his feet.

I laid down beside him and put my head on his chest. It felt as if we were the only two people in the world and nothing else mattered.

"I wish we could stay here forever." I said without thinking.

His eyes twinkled as he smiled. After a while he said, "Well, too bad nothing lasts forever..." He chuckled.

We laid in silence for at least 10 minutes. I listened to the crickets chirping, and the frogs ribbeting. They followed in perfect rhythm with Luke's heartbeat. He rolled so that he was in a push-up position on top of me. He bent his arms a little, his nose touching mine. "You know your going to have to go home sometime, right?" He said softly and quietly as his lips brushed against mine, not yet a kiss, but enough to make my heart beat for more.

My mind raced with a million different things I could say to him. Finally, I just picked of the many worthless pity speeches my mind had lined up for me. "I can't, I want to stay with you." It sounded so crappy, I knew I would hate myself for years for saying that.

He laughed faintly, "You could if you didn't already have Joe. You have to let him know your alive."

"Yeah right," I replied, "He's the one that stabbed me in the first place."

He kissed my nose, "I'm sure he doesn't know your mom's dead, don't you think he'd like to know." I looked at him with pleading, sad eyes.

He grinned and brushed my lips again. Instead of letting them pass like last time, I parted my lips. I guess he wasn't going to just pass either because he too, parted him lips. Soon after many kisses and sighs, we were completely all the other was thinking about. I slid his jacket off, then his shirt. He grabbed my waist then rolled over so I was on top. He unzipped my jacket and slid it off.

"Lukie!" Someone called from downstairs.

We stopped kissing and looked at eachother. Luke looked annoyed, "Deven!" he snapped to himself. I got off of him and stood in the doorway. He got up and came over to me, put his hands on my waist, and stared into my eyes.

"I hope your appropriate, Lukie!" The voice called again.

He sighed and buried his face in my hair. Deven came into the door and got a surprised look on his face. He put his hand on his hip that was poked off to one side and pointed a finger in Luke's direction, then said in a girly voice, "Lucan Riven Marks! What have I told you about sex young man!" He came over to us and put an arm around both of us. "Well, look on the bright side," He took his hand off of Luke's bare shoulder and brought it on top of his head and patted it very hard, then started to play with his hair, "My little Lukie is growing up!" He said, fakely crying into our shoulders.

Luke rolled his eyes as Deven's head popped back up, his brown eyes once again serious and evil, even darker with his thick black eyeliner. "Your grandmother's downstairs, she sent me to get you... But I can tell her your... Busy... Ummm... Working..." Deven said.

"That won't be necessary, thank you." Luke replied. He looked both annoyed and uneasy about something. He let out a deep breath before taking my hand in his and said, "Come on." We followed Deven all the way down the stairs and down the hallway. when we reached the living room, Deven ran over and sat between Jackson and James and started whispering something to them.

A very young woman walked over to us and smiled when she saw our hands interlocked and how close we to eachother. She hugged Luke then shook my hand. "Alex..." He shifted, "Meet my grandmother..." I looked at her, she nodded and smiled a brilliant white smile. She had beautiful sparkling green eyes. Her short black hair encircled her pale wrinkleless face in a mess or tiny curls.

"We just wanted to see you one last time before we headed back to England." She said in her strong British accent. Once they had left, Luke lost his smile and went over and punched Deven in the leg before sitting down on the floor in front of him. I walked over and sat beside him. He put an am around me and I moved closer to him and put my head on his shoulder.

He looked down at me, "Are you ready to go home now...?" He asked softly.

"Come stay with me for at least one night!" I begged. I felt so safe with him.

He thought about it for a minute or two then said, "Fine... But you know that you have to face your fears sooner or later, even if they might get you killed. I'll stay with you for as long as you want me too, but you have to promise me that you'll stay at least one night by yourself. I'm only a few houses away."

I didn't expect that answer, but I was happy to hear it. I hugged him tightly, "Thank you so much Luke, I'm so glad I have you!"
