Skyler's POV

"Hey ready to go?" I asked walking into Forever 21 the two girls near the crop tops pointing at me. "Almost!" Natalie says leaving the cash and tapping her her work buddy Gail on the shoulder "See you late Gail" she says grabbing her bag and flinging it over her shoulder. 

We walk out of the store and I catch a group of girls staring at me, I bite my lip trying to block it out. "People keep looking at me" I whine "well I mean you are dating the Luke Hemmings of 5 Seconds of Summer!" Natalie teases, I roll my eyes pushing her arm as we walk out of the mall.

Natalie starts up the engine and I hear the faint sound of music begin to play "so how's Cal?" I question pulling out my phone "he's uh he's good" Natalie mumbles turning the music up. I have three new messages. 

Ash: Sky heard you and Luke accidentally mad it official congrats!

Mikey: WHAT YOU AND LUKE ARE TOGETHER SINCE WHEN?!! 

You are in trouuuuuuuuubleeeeee -Calum 

I smirk opening my keek app "Nat they updated!" I smile pressing the new video 'Moustache band is hairy' it featured the whole band wearing fake moustaches and goofing off, I giggle looking at the comments. Luke are you dating that girl? 

I gulp scrolling down.  My husband is cheating on me with another woman, Luke baby come back to me, what the fuck is wrong with this band? I grin, turning my phone to sleep as Natalie pull into my drive way "I'll see you tomorrow then yeah?" "duh" I reply jumping out of the car. 

"Hello?" I reply groggily answering my ringing cell phone "Sky?" Luke says "do you know what time it is?" I whine rubbing my eyes "yes, but we need to talk" "sounds serious whats up?" I asks sitting up on my bed "I just" he starts the phone going silent "Luke?" I say nervously "I just really like you Sky, and I'm nervous that people might convince you other wise." "Luke what are y-" 

"My management says we have a choice, I can either tell the press we're together, or I can deny it" I bite my lip nervously "oh" I reply "oh." "Look Luke I really really like you a lot and no matter what you decide to do that won't change" I reassure him the line silent again "I'm just not sure how I'd be able to keep my hands off of you in public" he confesses I chuckle a faint blush crossing my cheeks.  "I should go" I decide checking the time "alright" he agrees "good night" he whispers "sleep tight" I reply ending the call. 

"Natalie people are staring at me! Why are they staring at me?" I complain as we move through the hallway on our way to lunch "we've been over this" Natalie states "it's because you're da-" I cover her mouth with my hand and she muffles through the rest of her sentence. 

"So you're still with Luke then?" Mallory asks her hand firmly around her boyfriends waist. "Guess so" I shrug "weird, always wanted to know what happened with you two guess I just assumed he dumped your ass like Calum did" I roll my eyes, and Natalie clenches her fists together 

"how is that for you Natalie? Seeing them together and knowing Calum decided he didn't want you, he wanted someone better." "You're just jealous he didn't want you" Natalie replies bitterly, Mallory squeaks leaning into her boyfriends side and he pets the top of head 

"alright well I'm going to go now, because" I begin not sure how to put you're new boyfriends a jerk and so are you and I'm really sick of listening to you run your mouth about things you know absolutely nothing about nicely.

"We're late for class" I decide on grabbing Natalie's arm and walking quickly towards the exit "enjoy my sloppy seconds!" Mallory yells just as I open the school doors "That's it let me at her!" Natalie screamed trying to shake my grasp
