||UNEDITED||

Autumn's P.o.v
There was a lot of details that I had left out when I told Luke about my life. A lot of fucked up details. A lot of very fucked up details.
After I had spilled my life for Luke, I hadn't bothered to ask him anything. Nor had I given him a chance to ask anything. I had just stood up and walked down to the kitchen, took an apple then ended up where I am right now; in the closed of part of the library.
I was sitting on the floor with a random book I had taken from the shelf where the newer books were located. The book wasn't very good but it brought me out of reality just for the time being.
It was quite wired really; it was about a girl who falls in love with a boy all over again, she had lost her memory and she didn't remember anything about the boy she was in love with before she got amnesia. The boy refuses to tell her the relation they had to each other. And as the time goes by; she falls in love with him all over again.
It's odd, really.
I probably sat there for a good two hours. And when I exited the dungeon-like part of the library I was just in time to see Michael and Lynn walking through the door to the kitchen.
I assumed that everyone was eating in the kitchen so I slowly made my way to my room. When I walked in I saw Luke's bathroom door wide open, the metallic blood-ish smell mixed with the smell of cleaning products hit my senses. My curiosity got the best of me so I peeked through the door.
Not really to my shock there was Luke on all four scrubbing the floor with a thick cloth. Almost all the blood was gone but if you looked closely you could see stains on the tile floor. He didn't notice me so I picked up a cloth which lay on the counter and helped him with the last couple of stains. I sat down on my knees beside him which caught his attention. He stared at me in shock. But quickly gathered up a understandable sentence.
"You don't have to help me, you know?" He whispered. I realized how close I had sat down next to him; so close that our knees are touching.
I gave him a small smile.
"What if I want to help you?" Iretorted in a whisper. We're so close that I could feel his hot breath fanning over my face.
I first didn't realize the depth in my words before it was to late because Luke had already realized it. He sat up and leaned his back onto the bathroom counter. He threw his bloody cloth into the open shower.
He spread his legs in front of himself and crossed his arms. His eyebrows furrowed together as he gazed at me in utter confusion.
"What- what if we help e-each other?" He stuttered.
His stutter is cute- I've always thought badass boys who stutter is the cutest thing ever- but there's something extra to his, like he don't want to say the wrong things. I can't decide whether it's either cute or worrying.
"Maybe we can..." I whispered and scooted a bit closer.
His eyes widened at my sudden action. I was sitting my knees in between his sparrow like legs with my hands firmly placed on his thighs. He squirming like crazy under my touch.
Before I knew it; the both of us were leaning in. His hands reached up and cupped my cheeks in his big palms as my hands moved up a bit further. And he threw his head back and groaned.
I looked down and saw that I had slipped with my hand when I placed it on his thigh because I had accidentally palmed him trough his tight black and ripped jeans.
Oh shit.
I quickly pulled back and looked at Luke in his somewhat state of pleasure in shock.
"O-oh I-I-I...-" I cut myself of and ran out of the bathroom into my own and locked the door quickly.
I was breathing hard as I slid down the door and leaned my head into my knees.
After about 5 minutes I could hear hurried steeps in the room behind the door.
I knew it was Luke immediately. I could sense him waddling back-and-fourth like a frustrated penguin.
But I couldn't care at the moment because I'm trying to figure out one thing;
What the hell just happened between Luke and I?
