Okay so this part might upset a few people, so you have been warned! :)
Amelia’s POV:
‘’Luke, you really didn’t have to help. I’m used to doing this by myself’’ I half smiled at him, dropping pillows onto the front room floor. Everyone else had gone back to their own homes, but Luke said he wanted to come over and help me set up. I was hoping to be alone for the afternoon. You know, get my head in the right place to talk to Ashton later.
‘’I know but I wanted to help’’ Luke smiles up at me as he picks up a couple of the pillows I just dropped.
‘’Well thanks’’ I turn around and walk back out of the room and into the kitchen. Everyone was coming over in about half an hour. I don’t know why they didn’t just come over right away, but apparently they needed 3 hours away from each other. Strange humans, always been the same.
‘’How’s the food coming along?’’ Luke asks, sticking his head around the door. I was cooking party type food as it’s the easiest thing to have out for everyone. No way was I going to cook a set meal. They can shove off if they think I’m doing that.
‘’The mini pizza’s are nearly done and then that’s everything’’ I mumble, looking in the oven.
‘’Great! Umm Amelia?’’ Luke asks, looking into the backroom.
‘’Yeah?’’ I ask, walking over towards him to try to get him to look at me.
‘’What happened between you and Ash last night?’’ Luke asks, still not looking at me.
‘’Is that why you wanted to help me?’’ I sigh. He could have just asked, I would have said.
‘’Yeah, sorry’’ he mumbles, finally looking at me.
‘’You know Lauren and Nathans talk before the party started?’’
‘’Yeah?’’
‘’Well he was asking questions about that. Questions that I didn’t want to answer. Well I don’t feel ready to answer. I got a bit upset, shouted at him and walked off. I guess I over the top and made him felt bad about asking. We’ve sorted it now though’’ I sigh, thinking about the consequences of my actions.
‘’Is that why Nathan took him off for a chat?’’
‘’Guessing you don’t remember much of last night?’’ I laugh at him. I’m pretty sure I had a small chat with them all about this in the kitchen…
‘’It’s a bit foggy in places’’ he laughs back.
‘’Nathan thought something was going on between me and Ash and Ash ended up telling Nathan why we had a fight’’
‘’Ohhhh, so it wasn’t about the fight in the first place?’’
‘’I hadn’t told anyone, until I told you guys in the kitchen’’
‘’Oh I remember! You were talking way to fast!’’
‘’Yeah! Well when I went up stairs to find them, Nathan wasn’t there and that’s when me and Ashton made up’’
‘’Oh right, well that’s good. So…ummm…did you tell him what Lauren and Nathan were going on about?’’ Luke mumbles, breaking eye contact again.
‘’Nope. It’s complicated, okay? I’m going to find it the hardest to tell you guys’’
‘’Why?’’ he asks, looking back at me confused.
‘’I may be treating you like you aren’t in a famous band, but you are. You guys mean more to me than you think, for reasons I find had telling anyone…let alone you four’’ now it was my turn to break eye contact.
