Two:

Clyde

I slung my rucksack over my shoulder as I headed over to Sarah Jane's place, unable to keep the grin off my face as all thoughts were focused on Luke coming home. I had missed Luke like crazy and it was weird not having my mate around, but it's not like I haven't been keeping myself busy. I enrolled at Jackson College and have been doing an Arts degree - which has been pretty awesome, but it still sucked not being able to hang out with Luke. As I turned the corner, I saw the old yellow car that I had hated for years and I couldn't stop myself from grinning as Luke stepped out with his messy brown hair and ridiculously adorable grin.

Shit, did I just call Luke adorable?

I shoved that thought quickly out of my mind as I walked over to Luke, who still didn't notice me and I was half tempted to scare the crap out of him but decided against it and reluctantly settled for tapping his shoulder.

"Hey," I grinned as Luke turned, his face beaming with happiness as he threw his arms around me and hugged me - this bloke was way too affectionate sometimes, but I was just as guilty and I was completely cool with hugging Luke without a second thought as to what other idiots might think.

"Clyde, I've missed you, mate." Luke said and I found myself enjoying the feeling of Luke in my arms as I held him, but I tried to shrug that uncomfortable thought away and forced a grin as Luke pulled away and grabbed his suitcase out the boot "how's your art course going? I've been researching some artwork from the 1800s that you'll find fascinating-"

He continued to tell me about seven different impressive artists that I'll definitely want to look into as we went into the house and Sarah Jane came rushing in from the kitchen and hugged Luke, closely followed by my favourite little person Sparky.

"I've missed you guys," Luke said as he hugged his younger sister and I loved seeing this small family reunion, it gave me hope that all families weren't as fucked up as mine.

Luke

It was so great to be back home.

I loved seeing Sky and Mum, but it was even better to see Clyde again. We both headed up to my bedroom and Clyde helped me unpack, but my room looked exactly the same and it felt like I never left. Clyde looked different though, he had clearly been to the gym and had a lot more muscle definition and seeing Clyde's cheerful face made me feel so content. Everything about him breathed positivity and he always seemed to know how to make me smile, sometimes I think Clyde knew me better than I know myself.

"So, you met anyone at university?" Clyde chuckled, throwing himself on the bed and grinned as I sat beside him with a shake of my head.

I hadn't been interested at all in dating anyone, mainly because no one made me feel the way Clyde. I was aware of my feelings for Clyde for a few years now and even though the books I had researched said it was natural to feel a connection towards another person, I had supressed this feelings out of fear of the thought of losing my best friend.

"Nope," I said simply, smiling as Clyde pulled me into a one armed hug and my head was resting on his chest - it was sometimes strange how comfortable we are with each other "I've just been focusing on my studies."

"Good, well I'm going to make sure we have some fun," Clyde said with a grin, his fingers gently tracing lines on my arm "you and me are going out tomorrow, just us guys."

That idea was actually a really good one and I couldn't even consider turning down a day out with my best friend.

"Yeah, that'll be cool," I said and Clyde beamed, looking just as excited as me.

"Great," Clyde smiled, but my phone began buzzing on the bedside table and I quickly retrieved it to read the text from Maria.

Maria: Hey Luke, really missing you and can't wait to be back in the UK next week xxx can we meet up?

"Maria just messaged me," I informed Clyde "she wants to meet up next week when she's in London."

It may have been my imagination, but I thought I saw a look of annoyance cross Clyde's expression and would have asked him what the matter was if the door hadn't burst open and Rani walked in with a wide grin, her black hair tied in a long ponytail.

"Hey guys," her smile widened as she saw Clyde's arm still wrapped around my shoulders, a mischievous glint in her eyes "should I come back later? It looks like I'm interrupting something."

"Nah, your not," Clyde said coolly, but I noticed his awkward smile as I got off the bed and pulled Rani into a hug "hey, has Sarah Jane started dinner? I'm fucking starving.

Faith

My breath appeared in front of my face in a misty fog as I breathed in the cold night air, casting wary looks over my shoulder as I approached the house. This looked like a really nice place to live, but I couldn't focus on the beautiful street and not the horrible thoughts of someone from UNIT finding me again. I knocked on the door and waited, glad my hoodie covered my face from any passers-by. A young girl with shoulder-length blonde hair answered the door with a polite smile on her face and for a terrifying moment I thought I had the wrong house.

"Hey," the girl said, frowning in confusion as I stood there in silence "can I help you?"

"Is Sarah Jane in?" I asked hesitantly, praying that this was the right place "I need to see her."

"Yeah, she's here," the girl said and then looked at me with untrusting eyes "who are you?"

"Faith Smith," I told her firmly, lowering my hood "I'm Sarah Jane's daughter."
