Tiffs POV –

 

I threw my last bag into the doorway and Luke haled it up and into the taxi. I had agreed to go back last night with Luke. It took a lot of kisses and persuading but I finally said yes. The fact was I didn’t want to go back in fear of being sent away again. Even though Luke said everything would be fine, I knew deep down that something would go wrong. We didn’t have that much luck

“Hey, Tiffany we’re ready to go” Luke came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist, snuggling his head into my neck. Goosebumps rose on my skin and I hear him give a low chuckle. He knows exactly how he is affecting me

“Hey, what wrong” He spins me around so I come face to face with him, my nose brushing his on the way round. I giggle at the contact but go back to being quiet

“Tiffany, I swear they will not send you back here. I won’t let them. It killed me the first time to have you slip through my fingers, I don’t think I could live with pain anymore” He whispers against my forehead as I rest my head on his chest. I felt a tear prick in my eye but tried my hardest to push it back

“I love you Luke” I whispered pulling away slightly to look up at him. A small smile played on his lips and a not so faint blush on his cheeks

“I love you to the moon and back Tiff” He whispers. Without warning he lifts me up and spins me around. I giggle and scream as he gets faster. Soon I am lightly punching his shoulders and yelling to put me down. He obeys my orders and pulls me down gently

“Lets go home yeah?” He asks and I nod. We walk out of the apartment hand in hand I I lock the door behind me. Goodbye apartment, hopefully forever

----- (Skip flight because that would take too long) ------------------------

I rub my eyes as Luke gets the last bag from the checkout. The flight was delayed so it was now two in the morning here in London

“Hey babe, go ahead and get in the car” Luke bends down to whisper but I shake my head and grab the bags from his hands and arms. I am about to pull one off when he grabs my hand and shakes his head back at me

“Seriously Tiff, go in the car and get some rest. I will be fine” He reassures me and I hesitantly let go of the bags. Picking up the pace, I rush out of the airport and get into the car that was waiting for us. The driver smiled as I climbed in and slowly drifted back to sleep

Lukes POV –

 

I chucked all the bags into the back and gently climbed into the seat of the car. As soon as the door shut, the car jolted forward, heading towards home. This time when she arrives home, I intend on keeping her there. There was no way in hell that she was going anywhere, except if it was with me

At the back of my mind, I was worried about Ella and her dad. All I had told Tiff was that I had called off the engagement. But of course it wasn’t that simple. There was even a chance I would have to still get married to her

“We are here” The drivers deep voice stopped my thoughts and I leaned over to where Tiff was laying. Gently I shook her shoulder but she wouldn’t move. I smiled and remember the last time this happened. We had just come back from the cinema and she fell asleep on my shoulder. Back then we still sort of disliked each other. But after I carried her in and tucked her into bed. I don’t know if she heard what I said but I remember it clearly
