Battle Royale {Luke Holland}

Chapter 2

I groaned as I felt something wet on my mouth.

I opened an eye and nothing was in my bunk. I poked my head out of the curtain and bumped heads with Luke.

"What the fuck..." I mumbled.

He twirled a wet napkin in between his fingers and slapped me in the face with it. "Morning"

"Shut up"

I rolled out of bed and pushed him out of the way, walking into the front part of the bus.

"Hey" Dan said as I sat next to him.

I smiled and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes.

He held out a gum to me and I took it. My breath probably reeked.

"What was Luke doing in my bunk?" I whispered, eyeing Luke who was staring absentmindedly into his bunk.

"I thought you two were making out. I dunno. I think he was trying to wake you up"

"Ew! Making out. That's gross. He's gross" I shrieked.

He gave me a look and I returned it.

"Anyways, we have a show at like 6 tonight. And Telle wants you to check his mic cords because they were messing up"

"Yeah yeah" I grumbled.

"We like you more than our other techs. And since you're musically educated we have you do more work"

"I'm 18 I shouldn't be allowed to have this job"

"But you do" Telle said, walking over to us from the bunk area.

I punched his shoulder lightly and got up to get dressed.

Luke was getting down from his bunk as I was walking by and I had to squeeze by him.

We ended up stuck against each other.

"How did this happen?!" I groaned.

He strarted to move and I dug my nails into his arm. His eyes widened and he stopped. "What?"

"It hurts. Stop moving and I'll figure something out" I hissed.

"Okay how about I like um... How the fuck did we get stuck in here?"

I shrugged. The hallway wasn't really that small.

"Okay push out like really fast" I said.

He counted down from three and tried to move out.

He was squishing me and it hurt.

"That fucking hurts Luke. Go faster or something" I whined.

"Sorry sorry. This isn't working"

"Ya think?" I grumbled.

I looked around and backed up as far as I could. "Suck your stomach in or something" I mumbled.

He gave me a look and I slid down, pushing him back.

"Whoa..." I heard tony say.

I saw his shoes as I crawled out of the space.

"Finally!" Luke sighed.

"Wait wait wait... What were you two doing?" Tony asked.

"We got stuck" I said.

"The hallway fits us" tony said flatly.

I looked over at Luke and he smirked at me before walking away.

Oh my god.

-

I heard the popping sounds of Luke's drumhead and I flinched.

His keys were burning a hole in my pocket and I knew I had to fix that.

"Sel..." He whined.

I rolled my eyes and walked from my position on the side stage to where he was.

I handed him his keys and he gave me a nasty look.

"Thanks" he muttered dryly.

"What? What did I do this time?"

I saw Dan and Zack looking at us from a couple feet away and I crossed my arms over my chest.

"Stop being such a bitch" he said.

"Luke... I fix everything for you. You have a fucking drum tech. So don't expect me to do all this shit for you. Call me a bitch again and I'm going to shove those drumsticks up your ass"

He smirked and cocked his head to the side. "Kinky. I like it"

I reached out and slapped him before walking away.

-

After an impeccable performance, the guys decided to go out and get drunk.

Yeah because I'm old enough to drink.

"Should we do something?" Luke asked as we sat on the bus alone.

I snorted. "I'm going to bed. You should shower"

"You go first"

"You go first" I said.

"How about we both go"

"Stop being perverted. This is not amusing me" I said, getting off of the couch and opening the snack cabinet.

I grabbed a bag of popcorn and shoved it into the microwave.

"Are you excited for the UK?!" I yelled to Luke as I heard the water running.

"Duh!" He yelled back.

I smirked to myself and heard a knock on the bus door.

I opened it to find Michael Owens from Secrets and TJ from escape the fate.

"The guys went out" I said.

TJ smiled and I shrugged.

"We were looking for Luke"

I looked behind me and I could still hear the water running.

"He's busy" I said.

"Okay, well I have his phone. And his girlfriend has been calling and texting him like crazy. She's been sending him these pictures and she has really big bo-"

"Okay okay. I don't give a shit what his girlfriend looks like. I bet he has a horrible taste in girls. Anyways. Give me his phone and I'll give it to him" I said.

Michael looked me up and down and shrugged. "I think he has pretty good taste in women. Here" he said, pulling Luke's black iPhone out of his pocket.

He handed it to me and smiled brightly before closing the door.

Luke walked out, in only a towel, soaking wet, like hot.

"Oh my phone. Gimme" he said, taking it from me. I shrugged and walked away.

When I climbed into my bunk I closed the curtain and I could hear Luke on the phone.

"Yeah babe. I love you too" he said.

Ew. I bet she was hideous.

If she was, he could do better.

He's like the hottest guy to walk the planet. Um...

"Hey Sel!" He yelled.

The curtain to my bunk was yanked open and Luke handed me my bag of popcorn before closing it and returning to his phone call.

Stupid boys.
