She's Fallin, Doesn't Even Know It Yet. (A Luke Hemmings Fanfic)

Chapter 21: Happy Thanksgiving!

"What're you gonna wear for Mikey, Bay?" I asked and giggled when she smiled and shook her head. We were face timing and figuring out what we wanted to wear.

"Should I wear a dress?" She asked and I bit the inside of my cheek,

"Mmm, nah... he thinks you look beautiful in anything, you know that right?" I laughed a little bit and she blushed. "You could probably come in sweatpants and he'd be like, 'Woah, she's so beautiful.' And then he'd kiss you in front of his GTA game." I said and she laughed,

"Samantha, shut up! He will not." She laughed and blushed, and I couldn't help but laugh.

We both just decided to wear skinny jeans, and a nice shirt. We hung up and I put in my favorite ripped skinny jeans, and I pulled out a lightweight, nearly see-through, white button down shirt. The sleeves came down just below my elbows, and it was one of the most comfortable shirts I own.

I straightened my hair, and put my sparkly, black, low top Converse on, and did my eye makeup. I had just finished brushing my teeth when Michael came in, with a towel around his waist, ready to take a shower.

I looked away and laughed a little bit,

"Oh my God!" I said and heard him laugh. "It's like the white side of the moon." I stated and he pulled me against his chest,

"Like you care." He laughed and I hugged him around his torso. "Hey, I got a question for you." He said and I looked up at him,

"What?"

"Is Gage's family coming today, too?" He asked and I glanced away for a second,

"No. Michael we're gonna have like 10 people here." I stated and he nodded. "Plus, they have their own thing going on with Kelly and Jack. You know. Big family." I added and he grinned,

"Okay. Thanks."

"Why?" I asked and he bit his lip,

"No reason." He said and kissed the top of my head before pushing me out. He closed the door and I rolled my eyes, laughing a little bit, and walking back into my room.

I put on a nice bracelet, my diamond earrings, and one of my silver necklaces. I put my cross on too, but hid it under my shirt.

I walked past the bathroom door to go downstairs, and I stopped walking when I thought I heard Michael talking. I listened closer and laughed a little bit when I heard him singing about Belle.

I smiled and shook my head, hoping he'd have to courage to be closer to her today. I walked downstairs into the kitchen, and saw Mom put the turkey in the oven. I sat on one of our bar stools, and I scared her when she turned around.

•••

I was sitting in the living room with Belle, her little sister Ava, and her mom's boyfriend's son, Lincoln. Michael walked back in from the kitchen, and when he and Belle locked eyes I could tell he wanted to be alone with her.

I glanced at the door and back at him, and he nodded,

"Belle?" He asked she looked up at him. "Do you, maybe want to go for a walk or something? It's gonna be a while before the food is done." He sounded shy, and I knew she thought it was the cutest thing ever.

"Um," she glanced at me, and I nodded, "yeah, sure." She smiled and stood up, and he grabbed her hand, walking towards the front door.

They both looked back at me, not at the same time, but they both looked excited, and a little nervous. But, it was probably a good thing.

I grabbed something to eat before walking out the back door, and going out by the fence post again. I was listening to music and lost in my own little world when I heard some familiar voices.

"Sam!"

I turned around and saw Cal, Ash, and Luke running at me, and I couldn't help but laugh when Ashton picked me up first and gave me a hug. He set me down and they all gave me a group hug, making me feel really safe again.

We all talked for a while, and decided to start going back to the house. They all looked really cute. I just, I had to say it. They did.

"Where's Mikey?" Calum asked and I grinned,

"He and Belle went for a little walk." I stated and they all smiled and laughed a little bit,

"Are you serious?" Ashton asked and I chuckled,

"Yeah. I was hoping he would at one point."

We got back inside, and everyone said hi to the boys, and I talked with Liz for a while, and we walked into the living room. Calum and Ashton sat down, and I sat in front of our fireplace, trying to warm myself up faster.

I locked eyes with Luke's blue ones for second, and patted a spot beside me for him to sit down. He smiled and sat next to me, and my heart fluttered when his hand brushed over mine.

•••

We all had finished eating dinner, and now all of the adults were just chatting it up. The boys, Belle, and I were all up in my room, getting ready to watch a movie.

I was kneeling down in front of my rack of DVDs, and I felt a hand land on my back. I looked over and saw Luke kneel down next to me, and he smiled,

"Hey."

"Hey." I grinned and looked back at the movies, trying to find a good one to watch. He must've known what I was doing, because he spoke up,

"We could watch this." He said and pulled out The Conjuring. I chuckled and took it from him, standing up. I grabbed his hand and helped him up too, and pushed him onto Calum,

"Cuddle with Cal." I said and smirked at him. He bit his lip and laughed a little bit, getting off of Calum and sitting on my bed.

Luke and I have been really close today. Like, really close. He seems a lot more confident about himself. For example, when we were eating, we were at the dining room table, and, I was sitting next to him, right?

Well, he decided hold my hand. I eat with my right hand, and I've just grown to keep my left hand on my lap out of habit I guess? And, I was talking to Belle when I felt his fingertips go down my forearm, over my wrist, and into the palm of my hand.

I got nervous immediately, and let Belle finish talking before looking at him. He grinned at me and intertwined our fingers. And, I let him. I know I shouldn't have! But, something wouldn't let me let go of his hand. Only squeeze it tighter every so often.

Guys! This is continued in the next chapter! It's the Part 2! :) I love you all. :3
