Promise

Chapter 21

It ended as soon as it started.

I pulled away. Not because I didn't like it. I wanted it so badly. But I was scared. I knew It wasn't right.

I pulled away from him and stood up shaking.

Luke had a smirk on his face.

"I-I just um."

"Sadie." He chuckled. "That was really beautiful."

"Sorry Luke I didn't mean to stop just-"

"It's fine. I knew it wasn't going to last because it's easy to tell that you feel better with Ashton. And to be honest I think you would be better with Ashton. I'm just happy that happened because the sexual tension between us-"

"Sexual?" I mumbled.

"Yeah." He laughed again and pulled me towards him by my waist.

"I don't think it was that."

He frowned. "Sure Sadie. Do you really want me to be mad? Or do you like me better when I'm nice?" He raised his eyebrow.

Oh this boy. How he got into my life. How he mixed it up. How he confused me. I let him get into my head, and let him control me. But he's so sweet, so happy, once I knew the real him. He's different.

(Luke pov)

I'd been waiting to kiss her ever since last night. See, ever since I met Sadie, I was interested. She was pretty, a sweet girl, ya know the usual. But she just thought so highly of herself. And it annoyed the fuck out of me, so I was an ass towards her. When I saw her with that bruise, oh god, i knew. I knew I wanted to help her. I didn't care if she hated me, I just knew I wanted to.

I pulled her chin towards mine and we connected our lips. I had kissed her myself, why would she make the first move. I wanted it to last longer, but she had pulled away. Shit, I wish I could have stayed there with her for hours, kissing her, making her feel good. But no. She had stopped.

"Well bye." I watched her walk out, walking away from me.

I didn't answer.

Next Ashton came in. Oh great he had brought her. I remembered the first night when ash came home going on and on about some bitch named Sadie. And then I met her.

"What do you want." I gruffly asked, lying back down on the bed.

"You made her cry Luke." He answered equally as gruff.

"She made me cry!" I shot back, and rubbed my eyes.

He sighed. "I'm really sorry Luke. Okay let me get some things straight with you. After the police checked you...they want to put you back I'm rehab."

I groan. "No."

"Luke, we all want you to get bet-"

"I was better!" I argue.

"And look where that's ended you up! Luke you can't just think about yourself here! Your affecting other people and you damn know it! So stop acting like a complete fool and get your shit together!" He stated, his eyes alive, piercing mine.

Oh shit I made Ashton mad.

Ashtons one of those super sweet guys, who always make sure he's doing his best, and that everyone is happy around him. So when he's mad, it's bad. I wonder how we actually became friends in the first place to be honest.

"Is this about Sadie?!" I yelled at him, instantly standing up. I was taller than him, not by much, but taller. He could easily beat me up though.

"Well of course Luke! You don't even know how you've made that poor girl feel! She use to be happ-"

"She was never fucking happy Ashton!" I cut him off and grab a cup of the table next to me and throw it against the wall. Tears slid down my eyes and I sit back down on the bed.

"What do you, what do you-"

"She never told you huh?" I suddenly get my confidence back, looking him square in the eye. So she told me something that she didn't tell her sweet little Ashton.

"Tell me what!" His voice is demanding, yet faint, the fire in his eyes burning out. He looks worried.

"Her mom beats the fuck out of her ash." I spit out between my teeth. I ball my fists at my waist. "She told me Ashton, she told me loads."

"Why didn't she-"

"Why didn't she tell you? Maybe she dosnt fucking love you!" I scream at him.

He stands there mouth open, tears gathering in his eyes. I almost feel bad for him. Pain flashes through his eyes and he stares me down.

"And she loves you Luke?"

"I don't, I don't kn-"

"Of course she wouldn't! You know what? You just fuck it up with everyone don't you. First with your own family, then with her, now me. We are done Luke. And don't think Sadie will ever talk to you. Because I won't let her. We are dating now actually. I asked her before she came her to talk to you." He spit out. Tears were splattering down both our eyes. So that's why she had stopped kissing me. They were dating. Ouch.

"And she might not love me now, but maybe she will in the future. But I know for a fact, that she will never love you. Because you have not one piece of love in your soul. Your hopeless Luke."

I shut my eyes close.

How can I even describe what I feel like right now.

I feel dead. I feel like I want to die. I want it to end.

"Go." barely choke out before I collapse on my bed in sobs.

I hear the door slam shut and

I'm alone.

WHAT

OMFG

OKAY MY HEAD HURTS AFTER WRITING THIS LIKE OMFG.

ASHTON AND LUKE ARNT FRIENDS AND ASH WAS SO MEAN.
