One Minute, And The Next || l.h [COMPLETED]

Chapter 21

Hell yes, I do...but he's Luke Hemmings. He's been with every girl in school, I told myself this wasn't going to happen... but fuck, is this boy hot. All I do is nod in agreement. A small smirk pulls on his lips again as he takes his hands back and grabs ahold of mine. "Come; let's get out of here..." He says and brings be back to his car.

After we run through the rain for quite a bit, we reach his car and get inside. "Where do you want to go?" He asks me.

"Anywhere but here.." I answer, crossing my arms over my chest to try and keep warm.

He simply nods and turns up the heat dial on his car, and the car's warmth raises quickly. He winds up driving to his house, and he brings me upstairs after he parks and we get out. He flicks on the light in his room and he walks in. "Here.." He says, searching into his dresser, pulling out some shorts and a band t-shirt of course.

"Thanks.." I say, taking them from him but just standing there, wet and still a bit cold.

"You can go in the bathroom, you know.." He says, gesturing to his bathroom door.

"Yeah, yeah.. I know.." I respond. I was just distracted by how good he looked right now... and as if him soaking wet in front of me wasn't enough, he slips off his damp shirt and tosses it on the ground, leaving his chest bare. You've got to be kidding me. I snap out of my thoughts... you can't like him Riley... you'll just be added onto the list of the girls he's been with... you don't want to get hurt again. I repeated all of this in my mind as I walked into his bathroom and changed into the clothes he had given me, leaving my soaked ones on the tile floor to dry. I grab my Marlboro packet and lighter, before walking back into his room. "Alright if I smoke in here?" I ask.

He shrugs, "I don't mind, just try not to blow it in my face again." He winks, and smiles.

I nod, wanting to give a soft smile as well, but I wasn't really capable of making one right now. I take a deep breath and crack open a window, sliding over the chair from his desk before sitting down. What the fuck was happening? One minute, my life is normal.. well, as normal as it can be for my family, and the next; I'm voluntarily kissing Luke Hemmings, my father dies, and it turns out, I have a baby brother. This is so fucked up.

I light up a cigarette and take a drag to calm myself, trying to blow most of it out of the window. "So are you going to admit it yet?" Luke speaks, now only in his boxers as he sat on his bed. I swear, he's doing this on purpose.

"Do you just take off your clothes for all your guests?" I ask, taking another drag.

"Only the hot ones." Luke answers and gives a small chuckle. "Now could you answer my question?" He asks again.

"I'd rather not..." I say.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Is Riley Harper...scared?" He asks, raising an eyebrow as his smirk grows.

"Fuck you." I say, smiling ever so slightly as I brought the cigarette up to my lips again.

"I'm sure you'd love to." He says, the stupid smirk still on his face as he bites his lip, fiddling with his lip ring. "I'm available anytime..." He adds.

I shake my head, smiling a tiny bit more as I presented my middle finger to his direction and I turned my head to look out the window to the rain that was still pouring.

He gets up off his bed, walking over to me and leans on the wall beside the window. "What'll it take for you to admit it?" He asks.

"I'm not admitting shit... you're Luke, I'm sure you can go up to any girl in our shitty school and they will not hesitate to admit it to you." I shrug, taking another drag.

"Ah.." He says and nods, "You think I'm gonna just throw you away?" He asks, his voice a bit more timid and less playful.

I don't answer, I just look back out at the rain, but he was smart enough to know what my silence meant.

"I'm not going to do that.." He says, looking down at me as I sat in the wooden desk chair.

"Yeah." I scoff softly, "That what you tell all of them?" I ask, bringing the smoke back to my lips, a bit sad it was losing its length.

He sighs, "Fuck, Riley... You're not like all of them.." He says, taking the cigarette from my fingers and tossing it in the trash. "Do you think I would do all this shit for one of those sluts?" He asks, his blue eyes peering down at me as I still refused to look at him.

I shrug, not wanting to answer. Bullshit... it's all bullshit, I try to convince myself.

"You're so much better than them..." He whispers softly.

I shake my head lightly, "No. I'm so much more fucked up than them." I say.

"Maybe.." he shrugs. "But I don't give a shit." He says. "That day, on our way to school when I decided to try and get you after that bet with my friends, and you completely rejected me.." He says and chuckles softly. "I knew you were different...Just by looking into those pretty eyes." He smiles gently, tilting my chin up to look at him. "Please just believe me when I say I really do have genuine feelings for you... and that those times we kissed, they didn't mean nothing to me." He adds. "I want you to admit it, Riley, and if you don't feel even a shred of feelings towards me... Then I'll drive you back home, and we can forget that any of this happened."

"Fine...fuck," I breathe. "I like you." I admit, and roll my eyes. God, he's stubborn.

His famous smirk grows on his lips again, "I knew it. You like me.." He teases.

"Fuck you." I say again and chuckle softly.

"Well if you really want too..." He says leaning down and pressing his lips to mine. I stand up so my face was leveled with his, keeping our lips attached. "Do you?" He asks after pulling away.

"You wanna be my distraction right?" I ask, my heart beat slowly speeding up.

"Mmhm..." He mumbles, already tugging at my shirt.

"Then distract me..." I whisper.

Luke doesn't waste any time before tugging off my shirt, pressing his lips back to mine, and walking backwards until we collapsed onto his bed.
