I've got a day off today so I'm updating in the morning instead of after school, so early update I guess :) enjoy

"You hung up literally 3 seconds ago" I shouted down the stairs, jokingly.

"I was just at your garden when you rang up" i heard him call back. I made my way down the stairs.

I was scared, scared of what he would think of me now.

I caught his attention and he looked at me wide eyed. "Your hair" was all he said, i laughed and nodded. "Where did all the color go?" He asked, walking to meet me at the bottom of the stairs. "Semi permanent" I heard a voice holla from the kitchen. Mum. "You look beautiful" She sighed, looking at my outfit. I grinned and looked down. "Yeah you do" Luke agreed, wrapping his arms around my waist.

I gave my Mum a death glare, suggesting that she should leave and she got the picture, she looked over to me one last time, before disappearing into the living room.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed his lips, softly. "You look so hot" He said, pulling away. I just smiled,gratefully. "We should get going" I changed subject awkwardly, shouting bye to my mom and making my way out of the house.

We got into Luke's car and began driving slowly to the party.

"I think i'm sat on something" i groaned, shifting in my seat, uncomfortably. Luke didn't reply, he kept his eyes fixed on the road. I slid my hand under my bum and pulled out the object that was giving me discomfort.

Lipstick? I had sat on some lipstick? Why did Luke have this in his car? "What the fuck is this?" I shouted, slightly.

"Its not mine" He said simply, shrugging his shoulders. "Well its not mine either" I said, my voice cracking. Why did i believe that he had actually changed? "Beau borrowed the car, its probably something to do with him. Okay?" He moaned, agitated. I sighed and relaxed into my seat. "You don't trust me Hope" "I do, i'm sorry" i whispered as we pulled up to the venue. "I won't hurt you, its different" He smiled, holding onto my hand.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Stay close" Luke whispered into my ear as we made our way into the party.

I gripped hold of his hand as we made our way through the dancing teenagers. "Hope?!" i heard someone shout, i turned to see Jai. I hugged him tightly, letting go of Lukes hand.

"You look beautiful" He gushed, causing me to blush. "Thankyou so much, do you like the hair?" I asked genuinely. "Yeah, its really nice" He grinned back at me, reassuring me that he wasnt lying.

"Hope come on?" I heard Luke say from behind me. "Im going to hang in here with Jai if you dont mind?" I asked Luke, not wanting to just leave him. "That's fine, just be careful" he smiled, kissing my head gently.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I got you both a drink?" I heard Beau call. I turned and took the peace offering, thanking him for being kind.

"Wheres Luke?" I asked, hoping that Beau would have seen him in the kitchen. Beau looked at Jai. I turned to see them both looking anxious.

"Where is Luke?" I repeated myself, sounding more aggressive than the first time. "He is taking a friend home, they was too drunk to drive themselves" Beau said, putting a hand on my shoulder, instantly relaxing me.

"Lets go dance" i gave in, pulling myself up. "You're drunk" Beau laughed at me. "Im not" i slurred back, grabbing onto Jai's arm and pulling him out onto the dancefloor. This was supposed to be mine and Luke night and he has gone somewhere without me. I wasnt going to mope around and wait for him to return. I wanted to enjoy myself. I started dancing in time with the music, amongst the other crowds of teenagers dancing around me.
