Chapter 51

                                    

                                          
‘Luke please hurry up!’ I said, knocking on the door for what felt like the 40th time. 
 ‘Yeah, calm down. I’m almost done’
 ‘You said that 10 minutes ago’
 Luke didn’t answer so I continued. 
 ‘If you don’t hurry up there’s going to be a pool of both blood and pee on the floor and you’re going to be the one cleaning it up’
 2 minutes later the toilet flushed and Luke walked out of the bathroom. 
 ‘you’re lucky I needed to charge my phone’ he mumbled but all I could focus on was the place where I was finally able to empty my bladder. 
 Luke and I decided to stay in the hotel today because we were tired and my uterus was still trying to strangle itself, or at least that’s what it felt like.
 So far, we’d spent the whole day cuddled up in bed watching movies on TV and eating whatever food we could find. 
 Luke had gone to the grocery store to get us some chips and more chocolate and a lot of cookies and gummy bears, so we definitely wouldn’t be starving in this room. 
 I flushed the toilet when I was done and walked out of the bathroom. 
 Luke immediately walked back in and told me I could continue watching the movie since it “might take a while”. 
 I crawled back under the blankets that were still warm and sighed.
 Enjoying the silence for a few minutes before Luke farted really loudly and I decided to just continue watching the movie instead. 
 A loud buzzing came from the nightstand and I looked at it to see that Luke’s phone was lightening up. 
 ‘Luke someone’s calling you again!’ I yelled, hoping he would hear me over his ridiculously loud farts. 
 How did I never hear that before?
 ‘Can you pick it up and tell them I’m going to call back later?’ he yelled back. 
 I took his phone out of the charger and picked it up. 
 ‘Hey Lukey!’ Someone on the other end of the line said excitedly, followed by a giggle. 
 ‘Ehm, no this is not Luke, sorry to disappoint you.’ I answered. 
 ‘Oh, hey Ivy!’ he corrected himself. 
 ‘Is Luke busy again?’ 
 ‘Yeah, he’s eh...well…he’s taking a shit’ I answered and the person on the other side of the phone started laughing. 
 In the background I could hear really loud music and a lot of people talking. 
 ‘Alright, are you guys having fun there?’ his words were a little slurred. 
 ‘Yeah we are, we were just watching some movies and eating half the grocery store’
 The boy giggled again. 
 ‘Then that was either a very small grocery store or you have a massive stomach’
 ‘A little bit of both’ I said, and feeling like I had to continue this conversation I asked: 
 ‘Are you at a party or something?’ 
 ‘Yes we are, it’s pretty loud’ 
 ‘I can hear that yeah’ I smiled. 
 ‘So did Luke tell you already?’ 
 ‘Did he tell me what?’ 
 ‘That he’s in a famous band with us and that he secretly really liked kissing you?’ 
 ‘He what?’ I asked, furrowing my eyebrows. 
 ‘Oh come on, we already told you Luke doesn’t do something without a reason. He kissed you because he wanted to and yesterday, he actually admitted that he really liked it, even though it was an “in the moment” kind of thing’
 ‘No I meant the other part’ 
 ‘Oh, what was the other part again?’ the boy giggled.
 ‘You said he was in a band, with you’ I said. ‘Oh, did I say that? I was not supposed to say that out loud, sorry. Please don’t tell Luke’ 
 ‘I can’t tell him because I don’t know your name’
 ‘My name is Ashton, but shit, don’t tell Luke he’ll hate me for the rest of my life and all the Lashton fans will be disappointed.’
 ‘I have no idea what you’re talking about’ 
 ‘You don’t have too, just forget everything I just said because he wanted to wait with telling you. He was scared you were going to run for the hills and maybe kill a few puppies on your way’
