The part in italics is a flashback to earlier that day. I didn't intend for it to be like that.. but when I was writing I forgot to write that part first... and was too lazy to change it. ----------------------------------------
Chapter 105: Only Me When I'm With You
She was standing on the front porch in tears. Mariana and Nathan trying to calm her down. Reassure her. He watched from the kitchen, looking through the screen door. He stood there trying to calm himself down.. trying not to get upset. She was only an hour away.. but that hour long drive felt like eternity. Grabbing the cup of coffee he had fixed for her he slowly made his way outside. Abby wrapped her arms around him and he held her tight. She stepped back and he wiped her eyes before walking her to the car, his arm snaked around her waist. Luka set the cup on top of the car and turned Abby to look at him. She was looking down at her feet, tears falling, sniffling. "Hey." He said gently. Biting her lip, she looked up. "You're gonna be ok."
"Without you.. I'm not so sure." She said quietly.
"You're not without me." She fell into him again, laying her head on his shoulder. "You're not too far away."
"It's not the distance I'm worried about."
"What are you worried about?"
"The environment.. the things around me.. Maggie... Eric."
"I am available twenty-four seven... one call.. one text.. I'm there... you got that?"
Sighing, she nodded. "Well.. I told Maggie I would be back by ten.. sooo.. I guess I should go."
"Yeah.." Luka said, letting her go. He stepped back, shoving his hands in his pockets. Abby grabbed the cup off the roof of the car, and got in, slowly closing the door. He watched her hold the keys, her bottom lift quivering, endless tears sliding down her cheek. She shook her head and wiped her eyes, bringing her hand back to the keys. Luka moved toward the car and stuck his head in through the open window, kissing her temple. "It's ok." She just looked at him with a slight smile one her face and started the car. "Yeah." She said.
"Call me when you get there, ok?"
"I will."
"Alright.. drive safe."
"I will."
"Ok."
".... Bye Luka."
"Bye."
And then she was gone. Just like that. He stood there for a moment, and then sat down on the curb, half expecting her to come back. But, when she didn't, he didn't get up... He just continued to sit there, thinking about earlier that day... -------------------------------------
"Hey Luka?" Abby said.
"Hey what?"
"Lets go to the park."
"Right now?"
"Yeah, why not?"
"I'm eating."
"You're done... Come on." She got up and pulled on his arm until he stood. The walk down the street was kind of quiet, but neither cared. Words weren't always an important thing in their relationship. They walked through the gate, and headed toward their tree, sitting down in the shade. Luka plopped down first, leaning up against the trunk. Abby sat herself in front of him, leaning back against him. "What are you thinking?" Luka asked.
"Well.. right now I'm thinking about how I'm going to kick your ass."
"Excuse me?"
She laughed. "Come on."
"Uh uh."
"Yes huh!" She whined. "Get up." She said before turning around. He watched her walk away for a minute. The sun making her dark hair shine. "Luka!" She called back. He smiled and then got up, jogging toward her. "What are you doing?"
"Like I said.. I'm going to-"
"Kick my ass. I know.. how?"
"Swinging." She said, sitting down on her favorite swing.
"Abby, you know I always used to beat you."
"Oh, no you did not! I always won.. and even if you did win, it was because I let you."
"No.. It was because I was better at it."
"Well, we'll see who's better now, won't we?"
"I'm too big for the swing now."
"That's what you said three years ago... and you swung then."
He thought about it.. three years ago.. The swinging competition. That moment. The kiss. The one that led to it all. He knew that wouldn't happen now... they had already been over that, but he sat down anyway.. he always was a wishful thinker. "Fine... but if I do recall, I beat you then too."
"Actually." Abby said, starting to swing. "If I remember correctly no one won, because we decided to start a game of tonsil hockey instead."
He blushed. "Yeah.." Abby giggled, and he looked over at her. His head tilted, really looking at her. The smile on her face brightened it and for a split second he saw that sparkle in her eye. That fire. They were both swinging high now, yelling they were winning at each other, laughing all the while. Luka jumped off and turned around watching Abby still swing. "Come on, now you do it."
"No way!"
"You never did like jumping off the swings."
"Yeah, well thats because I was traumatized by the one time I got hurt doing it."
"I won't let you fall.. you'll be fine.. you can do it."
"Nooo." She whined.
"You're a big girl now.."
Laughing, she looked at him and then just jumped off, landing right in front of him. His hands moved to her waist keeping her balanced and she looked up, smiling. There faces close enough so they felt eachothers breath. "I knew you could do it." Luka said, breaking the silence.
"Yeah.." Abby said stepping back. Luka quickly took his hands off her waist, and ran one through his hair nervously. "I think I still won though." He said.
"Psht!" She said hitting his chest." He stuck his tongue out at her and then made a dash to the right. "What are you doing?!" She yelled. "I don't know!"
"Don't make me come after you!"
"It's not like you'll catch me anyways!" Rolling her eyes she started after him. He screamed and she started laughing, before finally jumping on his back bringing him the ground. "Pinned you again." She said breathless. "Guess something never change huh?" She asked hovering over him.
"You're crushing me."
"Oh, shut up." she said rolling off him. He stood up and looked down, towering over her. She squinted up at him and studied the sneaky look on his face. He giggled, and then bent over picking her up. "What are you doing?" He just laughed. "Luka?" Looking behind him, she saw the lake and screamed. "No!"
"Yes."
"Luka, don't you dare!" She said, now above the water.
"Don't I dare? are you daring me?"
"Luka I am going-" She gasped and then screamed. "I'm going to kill you! It's cold!"
"Cannon ball!" He yelled. "Ohh.. it is kinda chilly." Shaking her head, Abby grabbed onto and pushed him under. "Stop drowning me!" She just laughed. "This is what you get for throwing me in!" Laying in the tall grass that night, they stared up at the stars. Their clothes still damp from the lake. The air was cool with a breeze that gave Abby goosebumps. She moved closer to him and he wrapped his arms around her, warming her up. "Better?" He asked.
"Mhm."
"If you're cold we can head back."
"No.. I'm fine now."
"Ok.."
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"For this." ------------------------------------------
Friday night beneath the stars In a field behind your yard You and I are painting pictures in the sky. And sometimes we don't say a thing Just listen to the crickets sing Everything I need is right here by my side.
And I know everything about you I don't wanna live without you
I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
Just a small town boy and girl Living in a crazy world Trying to figure out what is and isn't true And I don't try to hide my tears The secrets all my deepest fears Through it all nobody gets me like you do
And you know everything about me You say that you can't live without me
I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true.
And I’m only me when I’m with you
When I’m with anybody else It’s so hard to be myself Only you can see
I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true.
And I’m only me, who I wanna be Well I’m only me When I’m with you
With You, ooh yeah
Only Me When I'm With You Taylor Swift

Sorry guys... no update.. but make what you will out of this...
And I've lost who I am, and I can't understand Why my heart is so broken, rejecting your love, without, love gone wrong; lifeless words carry on But I know, all I know's that the end's beginning who I am from the start, take me home to my heart Let me go and I will run, I will not be silent, all this time spent in vain; wasted years wasted gain All is lost but hope remains and this war's not over There's a light, there's a sun taking all these shattered ones To the place we belong and his love will conquer all [/i]
