《Different》Chapter 36
Advertisement
The sequel will be called The Same. As some of you already know, it will be about Luke's childhood. I'm so excited!
I was thinking about making this book also in Luke's POV but I decided on writing only about his childhood. I mean if you'd wanna read this book in Luke's POV then comment and tell me, but in my opinion, the dialog would've been too repetitive, making the book boring.
Enjoy this chapter!

"Good morning princess," is the first thing I hear when I wake up. I snuggle into his neck and kiss it.
"Good morning Luke," I smile but my smile disappears in a second.
This isn't Luke.
Oh shit.
"Jack- I-I'm so sorry," I stutter. This definitely hurt his feelings. It would hurt mine. After a few seconds, I look up at him and he's looking into a wall. I grab his face with my hand, "hey. I'm so sorry Jack it's just that I'm not used to this yet. I'm not used to not being with Luke and that doesn't mean that I don't wanna be here with you," I whisper and he looks at me, a small smile playing on his lips.
"It's okay. I'm probably kind of rushing it, aren't I?" A huge wave of relief washes over me. I kiss him on the cheek and get up.
"Of course not," I wink, going to the bathroom to get dressed up and ready. We're heading back to the campus today, since it's Sunday. I put on a plain grey hoodie and some pants. Yes I stole them from Jack. He doesn't mind it though. I think he loves it by the way he looks at me.
"You better visit us again next month!" His mom hugs us, "and I'm talking about both of you. You're always welcome here Emma," she smiles and I nod, smiling too.
Then, Noah comes out and tries to give me a hug but I move away causing him to almost fall. Jack laughs and Noah scowls, "do not touch me," I growl quietly and he moves away.
We wave then goodbye and get in the car.
"Finally we've arrived," I sigh, getting out of the car.
I walk towards my dorm with Jack right behind me. I walk in and almost have a heart attack, "What the fuck Luke?" I yell. He's sitting on my bed, with a bottle in his hands, looking at me. He's drunk.
"What's he doing with you?" He growls, standing up and stumbling closer to us. I walk towards Luke. There's no way I'll let Luke fight Jack. And I know Luke wouldn't hit me. Even if he's drunk.
Right?
I put my hands on both of their chests, looking at Luke. "Luke stop it," I say in a calm tone, trying to calm him down. Of course he freaks out even more, "don't fucking touch him!" He yanks my hand away from Jack's chest. Jack immediately grabs me and pulls me behind him.
"Hurt one hair on her body and I swear to god Luke, I will kill you," he threatens, while I'm hidden behind him, trying not to cry. He's holding my hand and I feel more secure.

What if they have a fight again? Because of me. Again. I couldn't stand anyone getting hurt because of me. Not after V. It's all my fault. It's always my fault.
"Oh yeah? Go ahead. I'd love to see you try," Luke hits his own chest and stands in front of Jack. Jack lets my hand go and aside from all my pleads, hits Luke's jaw. Luke stumbles back, dropping the bottle. Wiping the blood off of his face, he chuckles, "you fucked up," and hits Jack.
"Stop, please!" I yell out but Jack quickly pushes me out the door, closing it. I start banging on it, yelling for them to let me in.
Nothing.
All I hear are hits and grunts. When I hear the bottle break, I quickly run outside, finding a security guard. They'll probably get in trouble but I don't want them getting killed.
Because of me.
I run down the stairs, crying and run into someone.
"I'm sorry," I exclaim and try to continue running but the person grabs my hand and pulls me back. Anger building up inside of me, I get ready to yell at the person to let me go. When I turn around, I see Dean's worried face.
"Emma? Are you okay?" He asks and I nod, trying to get away from him, so I could find a security guard. Or, I could ask Dean. He's strong.
"I need you to break down the door of my dorm," I quickly say and my expression tells him not to ask questions. He follows me to my dorm. He runs into the door three times until it breaks.
The first thing I see is Luke's and Jack's bloody faces. Jack is on top of Luke, trying to hit him with the broken bottle.
"FUCKING HELL STOP!" I yell on top of my lungs. They both look at me and Dean. Luke's strength suddenly returns, pushing Jack off of him. He stands up grabbing Dean's shirt, "get the fuck away from her," he spits blood on the floor and pushes Dean out.
"You two are such fucking morons. Luke what the fuck were you doing here in my dorm in the first place?! And Jack how could you hit him? I thought you were better than this. Now get the fuck out. Both of you!" I yell but they don't move.
"Emmy I'm so sor-" "Em we have to talk," Luke interrupts Jack, pushing him away a bit. He walks up to me, grabbing my hand. I move it away, stepping back.
"Jack could you please leave us alone for a few minutes?" I ask him and hurt immediately flashes through his eyes.
"The door is literally broken and you're trying to be alone," he huffs and leaves, wiping the blood off of his face.
"Jack-" "it's fine," he says, not turning back.
What did I just do? I shouldn't be here talking to Luke. We're not together. I should be with Jack, comforting him and cleaning his face up. But something keeps on dragging me to Luke. If I'm going to talk to Luke, one thing's for sure - we can't talk here. It needs to be somewhere private.

"Come here," he says, pulling me downstairs and towards his car.
Of course we're going to his place.
"What do you wanna talk about?" I ask him, sitting on his couch. "First, let's get you cleaned," I say before he could answer me. I get some disinfectant and start cleaning his cuts. The entire time, he's looking at me and it's making me a bit uncomfortable. I did miss this - us alone.
His brown eyes are staring right through me, making me blush a bit. I hate the effect he has on me. "You're so perfect," he murmurs, caressing my cheek with his thumb. I shiver at his touch. It's been three days but it feels like a year since I felt his fingers on me.
He then takes down his shirt. I look at him weirdly but then realise he has blood on his chest too. I start cleaning them, when he suddenly grabs me by my hips, seating me on his lap. I screech and laugh softly. He smiles, still watching me.
"There," I say and sit on the couch. The soft, soft couch.
I have a problem.
"Em, I'm so sorry. I just got angry at Jack because I know he loves you and that he's trying to take you away from me. Every guy is. And I don't know what I'd do if that ever happened to me. I mean, you can see what a wreck I am and it's only been 3 days. Baby I love you so much and I can't live without you. I know I fucked up and there's nothing else I can do than say sorry and try to make it up to you with kisses and hugs. God I wanna kiss you it's been so long-" I interrupt him by kissing him.
He's taken back by surprise but after a second he kisses me too. I feel so good but so bad at the same time. This isn't fair to Jack. But I can't help myself. I crawl onto his lap, not breaking the kiss. Then, he lifts me up, laying me on the couch.
After our make out session I lay my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. "I missed you so much Em," he whispers and kisses my head.
I smile to myself and before I know it, I'm drifting off to sleep.
I wake up and look at the time.
10AM
Shit shit shit.
I jump on my legs and pick up my stuff. "Where are you going?" A raspy voice says behind me, just when I was about to leave.
"I'm late," I answer, opening the door. He grabs my wrists and pulls me back inside. "One more kiss," he pouts his lips and I roll my eyes, kissing him. Quickly, I run down the stairs and when I get out, I realise that Luke drove me here. Sighing, I return to his apartment.
"Took you a while," he chuckles, sipping coffee.
"Can you drive me, please?" I plead and he smirks, shaking his head.
Why is he being so mean? I knew yesterday was too good to be true. I shouldn't have slept here or even came here in the first place. Poor Jack. This is gonna break his heart. And Luke will break Jack's bones if he finds out what we did.
"Fine," I roll my eyes, leaving the apartment. I guess I'll have to call Jack. Just as I was dialing his number, Luke stopped me.
"I'll take you," he takes my phone from me and starts walking towards the car. When we get to the car, he finally gives it back to me.
I rush to my class and sit where I normally would. Only difference is that the seat next to me is empty. I miss her so much man. I miss our conversations and laughs.
I came so late that the bell rang 5 minutes after I came in. I see Jack on the hallway, looking all sad. He looks at my way and I quickly turn around, walking away.
"Emmy!" He exclaims and I stop walking. Inhaling, I turn around, smiling. He looks really tired. The bags under his eyes are black. I instantly feel bad. I just have to tell him. It's easy.
He leans in to kiss me and I move away. "Jack I-" "you're with Luke huh? Okay," he rolls his eyes and leaves. I run after him, grabbing his shoulder. "What?" He spits and I stay silent. Not saying another word, he turns around and leaves.
I run to the bathroom, locking myself into the stall. Tears start pouring down my face.
Why are you such a fucking failure? You always let everyone down. Luke, Jack, V and Aarya. Every last one of them.
Suddenly, someone knocks on my stall, "Em?"
"Luke what are you doing here? This is the women's bathroom," I say, unlocking the door. He walks in, hugging me tightly.
"Who do I have to kill?" He asks me and I stiffen. That made him chuckle. He kisses my forehead, hugging me again. I felt safe. But when I'll tell him about Jack, I don't know how safe I'll feel then.
"Em, I have a question," he says and I pray it's not what I think it is.
"Y-yeah?" I stutter, my heart pounding.
"Did you two have a thing with Jack?" Disgust in his voice, when he mentioned Jack was clear. That sent shivers down my spine. And not the good ones.
I gulp, "n-no. Nothing," I stutter and he nods, kissing me.
Slowly, the guilt washes over me.

The rightful Luna
*'I-I am sorry your highness I touched ...!' She was trying to apologize, but she fell silent as she could not utter with her mouth that she accidentally touched his lips.'But I am not sorry!' He said calmly looking straight at her. What was she supposed to say after hearing his words?'I did not mean to touch your highness's ...' she said with great difficulty.'That was not a touch.' He said not permitting her to brush it off as an accident, even though it clearly was.'It was a kiss.' He said with a hoarse determined voice.She widened her eyes, as her face flushed even more than it did when she realized what she had done. He dared to say the word she avoided.'That was not! I...' she tried to refute. 'What is a kiss Celia?' She could not answer. How could she say the definition of a kiss with her own mouth, it would only confirm his words.*'It was an accident. I am truly sorry, I did not mean any discourtesy towards your highness. If I can make up for my error somehow?' She quickly said. She did not know of his personal life, as he had a tight security around him and nobody knew much of the king outside official visits and business. He must have felt insulted.'Please don't call it an accident. For a first kiss of a person to be called an accident ...' He said again with a dejected tone, but did not continue. It was like he had already gotten his point across.'Ahhh. I am so sorry! It really was an ...' She wanted to say accident but, because of his pleading she could not actually say it. To have committed the blame of taking the king's first kiss and then not acknowledging it, how would he think of her?At this point she did not even realize that their roles had reversed, or that it was her first kiss also.PS: If you like loyal mates... then please proceed further :D
