Charlotte's POV

I couldn't believe he'd do that to me! He knows I hate Amelia! How could he just kiss her like that?! We were best friends! Best friends don't do that! I didn't want to talk to Luke, I didn't even want to see him, so stayed home in my room for the rest of the weekend, I didn't even open my blinds since Luke's room was right across from mine.

"Charlotte, sweetie, I think you should go talk to Luke and sort out whatever happened," My mom said walking into my room with another box of tissues.

"I'd really rather not," I sighed pulling my bed sheets over my face.

"Fine, you do what you want but just remember that you and Luke have been best friends for 14 years," My mom added before closing my bedroom door and leaving. My phone screen lit up showing that someone had sent me a text and to top it all off it was Michael. 

From Michael:

Hey Char, do you know where Luke is? He didn't show up to band practice today

To Michael:

No. I don't know where he is. Sorry.

From Michael:

Do you know if he's home?

To Michael:

No, we aren't exactly speaking to each other right now so I have no idea where he is..

From Michael:

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know.

To Michael:

It's fine, I gotta go, see you at school tomorrow?

From Michael:

Yeah ok bye.

I sighed and threw my phone onto my nightstand before rolling out of bed, wiping my eyes and grabbing a hoodie. "I'll be right back, I'm going to see Luke," I told my mom before going outside and hopping the fence over to Luke's house.

 "Hey Mrs. H," I greeted Luke's mom when she opened the door. "Is Luke home?"

"Yes, he's in his room, you're welcome to go up and see him," Liz said.

"Thanks!" I said running up the stairs to Luke's room. He was laying on his bed shirtless, eating pizza and watching a movie on his computer.

"Luke?! What the fuck are you doing?! You're supposed to be at band practice!" I yelled slamming his computer shut.

"What's it to you? You hate me don't you?" Luke asked sitting up.

"Luke, I never said I hated you!" I groaned running a hand through my hair. "I'm just pissed you kissed Amelia!"

"Then why won't you let me explain what really happened?!" Luke asked.

"Fine, Luke, fine, tell me what really happened," I sighed sitting down on the corner of his bed.

"Okay, well I didn't know but my mom's boss is Amelia's dad, so they came over for dinner, I excused myself from dinner so that I could egt away from her. When I was outside, Amelia came out and started talking to me, I got mad at her for hitting on me again, so I got up to leave but before I could get up Amelia pulled me back and kissed me, I swear Char, I didn't know she would kiss me," Luke said all in one breath. "Have you been crying?" 

Luke crawled over to me and cupped my cheeks, examing my puffy, red eyes and tear-stained cheeks. "Yeah, but it's okay now Luke, I'm sorry for overreacting, but seriously, you have to go to band practice, you can't just bail on them," I said grabbing Luke's hands and holding them in my lap. 

"I know, I know, I'll go," Luke said rolling off of his bed and putting his laptop back onto his desk.

"Great! Can I come with? I've never witnessed one of the 5sos band practices before," I asked throwing Luke a shirt from his dresser and throwing it at him.

"I guess, I don't think the boys will mind," Luke shrugged pulling the shirt over his head, then grabbing his phone and following me downstairs.

"So who's house is it at?" I asked while we got into Luke's car. 

"Uh....Michael's," Luke smirked me after checking his phone and starting the car. 

"Maybe it's best if I don't come then....I dont want to be a distraction," I said reaching to open the car door.

"No, you're coming," Luke said grabbing my arm to stop me.

"But-"

"Nope! You're coming," Luke said pulling out of the driveway and driving towards Michael's house.

"So how were we Char?" Michael asked turning to me after they finished their song.

"Amazing," I grinned.

"Great! So we can count on you to come to our concert at the school fundraiser on Friday?" Calum asked.

"Of course," I said still grinning at them.

After the boys finished practicing, everyone had to leave since it was a school night, right as I was about to leave, Michael stopped me. "Um Char, can I talk to you?" Michael asked while the other boys went outside and got into their car. 

"Yeah," I nodded before turning to Luke. "I'll meet you in the car in a second." He nodded, giving me a cheeky wink before getting into his car.

"So what's up?" I asked facing Michael again.

"Well I was wondering if you'd like to go on to the skating rink with me on Friday, ya know, before the fundraiser," Michael asked, nervously scratching the back of his neck.

"Are you asking me out on a date?" I smirked trying to play it cool.

"Uh...yeah," Michael shrugged. "So do you want to go?"

"I'd love to," I answered, a huge grin forming on my face.

"Great, so I'll pick you up at 5 on Friday?" Michael asked, his confidence coming back.

"Sounds good, see you tomorrow," I smiled hugging him quickly then running to Luke's car and getting in.

"What are you grinning about?" Luke asked pulling out of Michael's driveway.

"Oh nothing," I lied.

"Oh c'mon, tell me," Luke begged.

"Okay fine!" I giggled. "Michael asked me out on a date!"

"Oh....uh great," Luke said. For the rest of the ride he wouldn't even look at me when he spoke. Luke was definitely hiding something.
