What Goes Around Comes Back Around

All the boys had come up to our room, just to hang out for a bit longer and joke around. Luke kept looking at me like I had said something wrong. I threw him a smile from time to time. The old memory was a nice and fun one, cute and romantic even. It felt nice for a change, to have a happy memory on our time together.

‘I’m going to get fresh up and get changed’ Luke whispered, he stood up and started making his way to the door.

‘I’m sorry Luke’ I blurted out

‘’for what?’ he stopped walking, tuning on his heels, slightly leaning forwards towards me. His face held curiosity as if he wanted me to continue and he was intrigued by my next choice of words.

‘for the trouble I probably will have caused you today…you know with Kara’ I smiled weakly

‘oh it’s alright’ he shrugged it off like nothing had happened. he shoved his hands in his pockets uncomfortably.

‘knowing Kara it’s not alright’ I let out a small giggle

‘no need to talk about her…’ he stopped for a moment, contemplating to say something else or not ‘not in that way anyway’

He was seriously defending her, after all this time, she had him exactly where she would want him. Right in the palm of her hand and every step of the way obeying her and listening to her orders. I had seen how the other lads had looked at her or had talked about her; they didn’t like her one bit. So what was there to be defending? Just shake it off Willow, shake it off.

‘are you even hearing yourself right now?’ seriously Willow, did you really have to say that, you were going to play nice…remember

‘I am and I love her Wills’

‘please safe your lies for someone who actually wants to hear them’ I laughed sarcastically

‘that you are hung up on the past doesn’t mean we all still live there’ Luke spat my way, I might have pushed him a little too far. I knew I should have kept my mouth shut.

‘whatever’ I shrugged and walked off. Luke let out an annoyed grunt and headed out the door. I just headed inside my bedroom, closing the door behind me; I picked up my guitar and started strumming the strings. I was biting on a pen, trying to think of any words that would fit with the upbeat chords playing under my fingertips.

Started out like in the movies. But it ended like a bad dream. Curtain opened, heard the crowd roar. The one’s a repeat, seen it before.

I started to scribble down the words quickly, before I would think of new words that might fit better. I heard a knock on the door, but decided to ignore it. I continued playing, and scribbling. It took me an hour to think off a good chorus; well I think it still sucks though. It described my angry feelings for my Luke situation perfectly.

This ain’t a movie that I wanna see. A tragic story, starring you and me. Yell “cut”, we’re stuck inside this scene. This is heartache on the big screen.

I jumped when I heard a male voice humming along to the tune. I kept on playing my guitar, while looking over my shoulder to see who it was. Michael stood there smiling down at the paper and glanced at me, giving me a wink.

‘you sing it’ I whispered, starting the chords back up for the chorus.

‘This ain’t a movie that I wanna see.
A tragic story, starring you and me
Yell “cut, we’re stuck inside this scene
This is heartache on the big screen’ Michael sang, I hadn’t had any words for the second part of the chorus, so I wanted to stop. Though Michael continued and I kept playing.

‘The clock is ticking and I’m out of time
The camera’s rolling and I forgot my lines
My script is ripped and now I see’

I stopped playing after that scribbling it down in my notebook. I bit my lip as I concentrated on the words. They were painful, but the total truth.

‘so are you going to tell me what is going on with you and Luke?’ Michael asked and I shook my head ‘we are all losing track on what status you guys are. Luke is grumpy and you are in your room writing sad songs with my help. Are you using Luke to write your songs?’

‘sort of’

‘what happened? and you better start talking, because we are all fed up with the good cop, bad cop attitude towards each other’ my eyes widened with shock, he wasn’t letting me go easily ‘I’m not letting you out of this until you spill the beans’

‘I’d love to focus on the song if not you can get yourself out of here, because I have to get changed’ Michael sighed and without any arguing he got up and left the room. I set down the guitar and strolled to the bathroom, quickly locking the door.

I turned on the shower and stripped out of my clothes. I set foot in the shower, the water running down my skin. I closed my eyes and ruffled my hands through my hair, letting it soak up the water. Why was my past with Luke haunting me ever since we started to drive down here?

*past*

‘Luke, come on’ I giggled, he was grabbing all the stuff together.

‘I can’t leave all this behind’ he whined and shot a pleading look at me.

‘fine I’ll help you’ I laughed and grabbed the picnic basket and everything that had been displayed out on the floor.

We had been doing this ever since he had surprised me the first time. It was nice and so sweet, sometimes we went to do other things like bowling, swimming or you name it. Only today it had decided to start pouring down like crazy. We had been laying in the sun and eating, drinking and having a good time when all of a sudden it had started raining.

‘let’s go Wills’ Luke smiled at me as he gathered the last bits

‘you owe me a hot bath or shower’

‘you can have a warm shower at my place’ he laughed as we ran through the field back to the car.

‘I hate you’ I yelled playfully

‘you love me really’ he flirted, grabbing my hand intertwining our finger as we ran

‘I do love you’ I giggled

‘and I love you back’

As we reached the car, he unlocked it and we quickly placed all the stuff in the boot and climbed in. We shared a look with each other and burst out laughing. We looked like two drenched cats, hair flat and sticking to our faces while the water drops streamed down our faces. The seats were soaked within minutes, but Luke didn’t seem to care as he started the engine and drove off.

We ended up at his place, leaving all the stuff in the car as we climbed out. Luke ran towards the front door and I kept standing in place for a second.

‘Wills get in’ Luke yelled at me

‘Luke come here’ I yelled happily back at him. Without questioning me he walked up and I looked into his eyes.

‘what is it?’ he asked, probably noticing the thoughtful look on my face.

‘I have always wanted to do this’ I smiled and grabbed Luke’s shirt, pulling him closer to me.

Without speaking he crashed his lips onto mine and we just stood there making out in the rain. I always thought it would be much more spectacular, like they made it look like in one of the Spiderman films. It wasn’t though, just no dehydrated lips, which was nice.

*Present*

I smiled at the old memory, which also happened to be a nice one. I shampooed and ended my shower, getting out and drying myself off. Luke’s words kept on ringing in my head, but tonight was the night I wouldn’t care anymore, not about him at least. Hello careless me…
