getting the last text message from Hales he couldnt help but laugh out loud to himself. ice cream "what a character...she's depressed but still has that loveable sense of humour" he said to himself as he drove down to the store to get her favourite kind. paying for it in exact change, Luke walked over to his car and got in then drove off to her house.
arriving, he parked on the driveway and got out wih icecream in hand. shaking his head he laughed once again then headed for the door. Luke was wearing his regular get up...the baggy beige pants which showed off the rim of his boxers, a green tshirt and white etnies shoes.
he stood infront of the large, solid door and rang the door bell as he waited to see the formiliar face of his dear friend Haley Lovell

Haley had been sat in her bed all day under the covers, she was in her sweats and her hair was tied back into a ponytail. After sending her last message to Luke she turned off the TV and waited for him to arrive. On the sound of the doorbell she got up and headed across the corridor and opened the wooden front door to her home. On seeing Luke she let out a little laugh, "bet I look like crap dont I" she laughed.

"ya you smell like it too" as he waved his hand infront of his nose as if to push away the smell. joking like always, Luke couldnt keep a straight face with her. "naw...you look perfect like always Hales.." he shook his head with a laugh. raising his arm between them he handed her the tub of ice cream "your favourite..." he winked then patted her shoulder

Haley laughed and hit him on the arm playfully, "shut up you and get in the house!" she said with a laugh. She took the ice cream from him and pulled him inside the house, "thanks sweetie" she said with a smile and closed the door behind her. She walked into the lounge and took a seat on the large sofa and pulled her legs up under her, "Oh grab us some spoons from the kitchen will ya" she said with a grin.

leaning to one side from the hit Luke held his arm "not cool you know i bruise easy!" he joked with her, as he held a little bit of a shocked look on his face. he enjoyed hearing her laugh because it meant that for that moment her mind was on something else, or in this case someone else. as he kicked off his shoes and walked into the lounge with Haley, Luke was just about to sit down until he heard her command. "so am i slave to you now or something?" he said sarcastically of course. "do you want me to bow down to you as well?" giving a playful wink Luke stood up and walked into the kitchen and grabbed two spoons then quickly made his wa back to the lounge. as he leaned back, Luke fell back on the couch beside Haley and fanned the two spoons out between them.

"Luke you know you're y slave" she laughed, taking one of the spoons she opened the ice cream and took a huge spoonful. Ben and Jerry's fish food her favourite, she moved to the edge of the couch and held the ice cream away from Luke, "No pig its mine you cant have any" she laughed as she stretched as far away as possible without falling off the couch.

"ya ya...i love being your slave, its so umm....rewarding" he laughed along with her as he was about to take a spoonful she moved the tub away from him. "you wanna paly hardball huh? your gunna die Hales" he gave a playful smirk her way as he leaned over then quickly and stealth like, tickled her side and grabbed the tub before she let go of it. with a laugh Luke held it in one hand and used his other wile holding the spoon and took a bite "mmmm yummy!" with the ice cream still in ihs mouth

"Ooohhh Luke Bennett you're gonna regret that, stealing ice cream from an emotional woman is never a good idea" she punched him in the stomach not hard enough to hurt just enough to make him flinch then she stole the ice cream back, "fine i'll share" she smirked. "Seriously though thanks for coming over I could use a friend right now" she said as the smile on her face faded.

holding his stomach he shook his head not really believing that she had just punched him in the stomach. laughing softly he looked up at her "i cant believe you just punched me...i seriously cant believe you just did that" sitting up, Luke took another spoonful and ate it just like last time.
"Hales you know im always here...especially for comic relief as you can tell" he said hinting to the punch from her. "i guess my job from slave has now increased to life sized punching bag" he winked to her wih another laugh. now as he leaned back in the couch Luke looked at the girl sitting beside him.

Haley laughed and nudged him, gently this time "you know I love you really!" she said with a smile. She rested her head on his shoulder and put down her spoon, that was a big sign Haley not wanting her ice cream...this was big! "Luke I dont know how to handle this, he said he wants us to be friends but I dont think I can handle that, we've never been just friends...we've been together two years I dont know who to be without him." Haley avoided mentioning how Craig had admitted to having feelings for Rachel after what Rachel had said about Luke dedicating a song to her in one of his performances she knew he liked her and this would only make things worse. "I wrote a song..." she said as she sat up and looked at him, alot of Haley's songs came from her emotions, in fact they all did and this time was no different. The only way she could express her feelings was in music and she knew Luke would understand that better than anyone.

[ is that a hint or something? lol jks 'its BIG!!'] Luke laughed along side his friend as he leaned back in the couch a little more. with Haley's head resting on his shoulder and her spoon being put away he knew this was going to be tough for her. "im sorry you have to go through with this Hales...i really am." he spoke in a soft voice only because of the situation. "its not easy losing someone you realy care about" Luke could understand her pain in a way, because his twin brother was taken out of his life by his mom. it might not have held the same physical pain but it held the exact same emotional pain. music had always been apart of Luke's life, it would never stop just like it wouldnt with Haley. Luke knew before he even arrived that Hales had or was going to write a song about this, it was her way of getting past the pain. "can i hear it?" he asked in a soft voice once again, she knew if her answer was no Luke would be ok with it

{{Ooooohh yeah baby lol }} Haley sat up and looked at him, she hesitated at first but she knew that Matty would be supportive and she could trust him with her inner feelings. "Ok but be gentle with me" she said with a smirk, she got up and walked over to the corner of the room. She picked up her guitar and perched on the arm of the chair opposite Luke. She slowly began to play as the Word s left her mouth; was it me? was it you? was it all the little things that I didnt do? try to move on, but I cant no I cant imagine being with another man
oh I tried, I tried a million times to get you off my mind its not that easy no not that easy dont you know how hard it is for me to smile and say goodbye it's not that easy no it's not that easy

[way to use my name in the post haha u n steph man...lol, u both make me feel so special lol ] leaning forward so his elbows rested on his legs and his hands clasped together, he listened carefully to the words of the song. it was moving and very touching how she sung it. Luke could tell that Haley was hurting from it all. after the song was over with, Luke arose from the couch and walked over to Haley, he wrapped his arms around her knowing that she was hurting inside, "let it out....hit me...do whatever you need to do Hales im here for you" he whispered into her ear

Haley held him tight for a moment and felt a few tears trickle down her cheeks, she was so grateful for Luke, he and Ethan had been there for her and it made her realise what fantastic friends they were. Pulling back she let out a small laugh as she wiped the shoulder of his shirt, "sorry" she said as she noticed the wet marks from her tears.
She placed her guitar back on the chair and sighed, "I just dont know how to handle this its too hard i dont know how to be myself without him im not the same person I was before I met him and im not sure I know who I am anymore" she opened her heart to him both with her music and with the words that had just left her lips she honestly didnt know what she would do without Luke and Ethan in her life.

Luke looked at his shirt, ya there were little circles where her tears had absorbed into his shirt but Luke wasnt one to care for that. it happened, if he cared he wouldnt have been there to hug her.
biting his lip slightly Luke shook his head. his friend was lost, and what was Luke to do? well try to pick her up and give her a push to go on. "your Haley Lovell, born musician...scratch that, born rockstar. your sweet and kind...and you love to just be yourself and laugh. your one of my closest friends....Hales, your the girl every guy wants to be with, your the girl every guy needs to be with..." he smiled as his voice went back into a whisper "..he didnt change you....Hales you changed him"
