Love Conquers All - Juke | JATP FANFICTION (BOOK ONE)

5x2. Truth be told

They both run out of the little out cove of the restaurant. "There you two are!" Reggie shouts annoyed. "You know running all over the city, without telling anybody where you were is so irresponsible!" Reggie states. "We were just-." Luke starts, Reggie cuts him off. "Save it! We know you were just having a "date night." But do you realize that it's been like this since we came back? You two are so wrapped up in the fact that you are bound to each other, that me and Alex have just been ignored, thank god Beatrice joined us, because if not Alex would've just had Willie at this point." Reggie practically screams. "We-." Julie starts, as Reggie finishes her drawn out apology. "Sorry isn't cutting it, you know after the millionth sorry, it kinda lost the sincerity. By the way twenty seven years, and the only brother I rekindled my relationship with is Bobby, I have two, for all I know my parents are dead. Dead, which you know life was better for me when we all believed we were dead." He says honestly. "I was afraid this would happen. Hannah and I are soulmates, but we don't ignore our friends, we don't ignore family. Ah let me guess you two forgot that we are a family." Luke and Julie share a look, as the reality set in. They didn't mean to do that to their friends. "We really didn't mean to Reggie, I guess it's true what they say, about meeting the love of your life." Julie says, sitting next to Reggie on the sidewalk. Luke sniffles, sitting on the other side of him. "Time stops, and you just know." Julie smiles sadly at Luke and Reggie. "I just don't want you two to forget about us." Reggie admits, and they nod walking back to the hotel, and apologizing to everyone. Then they go to their rooms, and Luke and her go to the piano, in the living area. "Maybe we should  take a break." Luke suggests. "Like breakup?" Julie asks. "I don't want to, but we really haven't been fair to our friends." Julie nods. "So what do we do?" Luke plays the notes to Perfect Harmony. "Play pretend." She chuckles. "Alright." She says, and he kisses her head. Then he plays, Dreams. "Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully
To the sound of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Thunder only happens when it's rainin'
Players only love you when they're playin'
Say women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
Now here I go again
I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
Ooh, what you lost
Thunder only happens when it's rainin'
Players only love you when they're playin'
Women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
Oh, thunder only happens when it's rainin'
Players only love you when they're playin'
Say women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
You will know
Oh, you'll know." Then Julie joins him in playing. "If you wake up and don't want to smile
If it takes just a little while
Open your eyes and look at the day
You'll see things in a different way
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Why not think about times to come?
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be, better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh, don't you look back
Ooh." He kisses her head. "Life is a risk, but we will take it." Luke says, grabbing her hands. She cups his face. "Close our eyes and jump." She says, as tears stream down her face. "Together I know that we make it, c'mon let's run." Luke sings softly, wiping her eyes. Then they go to bed. They didn't really think anybody heard them, they were wrong. "Anybody else feel bad?" Willie asks, they all nod. "All I did was tell them the truth." Hannah looks at him. "Reggie! Can't you see how in love they are?" Hannah asks. "So we're just supposed to be ignored?" Alex asks. "No!" Luke answers sternly, as they can all see Julie's eyes well up with tears. "I'm so sorry everyone! Here I'm gonna go find you two a big birthday cake! It's in a month anyway." She giggles and runs downstairs. "Julie!" They all yell, which they can't really do after the two shows they had, then another that night. It was now Julie's birthday and all Luke cared about was her. It was only 12:02 am. "Are you all happy now! You've made mon amour pleure pour son anniversaire!" Luke's voice cracks, and Alex and Reggie's jaws drop, as Ray and Carlos go down to check on her. "Wait!" He shouts, as he sprints down the stairs.
