My Great Escape (Luke Hemmings)

Chap. 9

"Skies are crying
I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence as its ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like there's nothing left of me" Emma finishes her verse and we all join in singing:
"You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper" we finishes all together and then I pick up the second verse singing:
"As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better to watch me while I bleed
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet"
I sing finishing off my verse and all of us girls coming into perfect harmony together again. As I look up to sing I see that the boys standing there but Aleisha was there standing right next to Luke holding his hand. I should've known better. The song already put tears in my eyes but this made it worse. I just kept singing anyway.
"You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will me rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper" we all sing finishing the chorus and then Lia takes the next verse. I can tell all the girls know why I'm upset.
"Go run run run
I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear
Yeah
Go run run run
Yeah it's a long way down
But I'm closer to the clouds up here" Lia finishes and then Katie starts singing her part:
"You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oohh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper" she finishes with us echoing here doing her solo. As we all finish the song:
"Like a skyscraper" Emma sings.
"Like a skyscraper" Lia sings
"Like a skyscraper" I sing finishing the song off smiling at each other and then looking into the ground while everyone was cheering for us which made us all feel good we hug in a group hug and Lily runs up into the group hug. Lia then begins to speak into the microphone.
"Hey guys. Was that good or what? Didn't the rest of the girls do a good job?" she speaks while everyone cheers including the boys but Aleisha just rolls her eyes at us.
"Well anywho, we can only sing one more song and it's a song Avi and I did a cover to and Emma and Katie are obsessed with it since they saw it, so everyone. This song is called firework by Katy perry. I hope you like it!" She says finishing off her little speech. I looked up and saw all the boys smiling it's kinda weird but the only thing that bothered me was having Aleisha all over Luke. I thought he liked me... That asshole is messing with my feelings. He's gonna pay for it. I slowly breath and sing my verse:
"Do you ever feel like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin?
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing.
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you.
You just gotta ignite, the light,and let it shine
Just own the night like the Fourth of July" I sang finishing my solo. Then having all the girls join in with me on the chorus. I could tell that Jake and Austin knew what this song means to us but whatever. We all sang the chorus in perfect harmony that made the crowd go crazy. There was more people gathering around and they just kept coming. While sing the chorus I look back to see Lily dancing around and having fun. So I brought her up to dance with us on the stage.
"Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go oh,oh,oh
You're gonna leave all of 'em in awe, awe, awe" we finished sing the chorus together. We continued dancing of stage. We also took the mics off there stands and walked into the crowd and danced with people and just had fun. Lia began her solo and sang:
"You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow" Lia finishes sing her part and then Emma takes her part singing:
"Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed
So you could be the one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightening bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know" Emma finished her solo and Lia then joined her in a part singing:
"You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the Fourth of July" Emma and Lia sang finishing their duet perfectly. Then we all started walking down the stage again and dancing with Lily also. We all start to sing again at the chorus:
"Cause baby your a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, your a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe" we all sing finishing the chorus. I looked up to see Luke pushing Aleisha off of his lips. I was pretty shocked like I just figured they had got together but I think I'm so wrong. Aleisha looked quite pissed at Luke and all the boys were giggling knowing that she just wants her and Luke together to make me jealous, but she is wrong about that. I pay back attention to the songs and dancing on the ground with the fans. Katie then begins singing her part:
"Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky-y-y" she sang her part and we all join in for the chorus singing:
"Baby you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go oh,oh,oh
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe,awe, awe" we all sang finishing up the chorus and then I took the last part of the song walking back up the stage with the girls singing:
"Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon" I sing finishing the song all turn backwards towards Lily with our fists in the air. Right when I put my arm down to turn back around someone grabbed my wrist, turned me around and pulled me close to them. I felt a warm, memorable pair of lips on mine. Luke, he was kissing me in front of everyone. I responded back quickly as out lips moved in perfect sync. I felt his arms around my waist pull me closer as I had my arms around his neck. This boy is gonna kill me, I REPEAT THIS BOY IS GONNA KILL ME! We pulled apart hearing everyone cheering but we just kept looking into each other's eyes. He grabbed the microphone from my hand and said...
"Avaline Rose Marks will you please go on a date with me?"
Luke asked. I was not expecting that. Should I say yes or play with his feelings too? No, I'm not that mean. I look into the crowd to see Aleisha with her jaw dropped to the ground and her hands on her hips. I looked back at Luke who is nervously waiting for an answer. What the heck I already have feelings for him.
"Yes I will" I say smiling hugging Luke as he spun me around with everyone cheering!
"No no no no no. LUKE YOU ARE MINE! Why on earth would you want to go out with her I don't see it. She has a terrible past. She basically killed her own father. Why would you go out with someone like that" at every word Aleisha said Luke pulled me towards him knowing there were tears in my eyes. She is such a bitch. She has no right to say that about me I try to get out of Luke's grip but he's holding me so tight so I have to stay there. I just turn and cry into his chest but I am pulled away from him and falling. I don't know what but I just heard everyone gasp and then I hit the floor. I was struggling to kept my eyes open. I hit the floor really hard with my head and all I heard was the girls and the boys shouting my name.
"Avi open your eyes. Stay with me" Austin said waiting for a reply. "God dammit Avi, some one call 911" (lol I don't know if that's the same number in Australia but just pretend it is)
"Avi, stay with me I can't lose you. You're like my sister. I need you" I hear Lia say with tears.
"Avi, open your eyes. I'm not losing you when I just got you please, stay" I hear Luke say but then I black out...
