The Contract

Let You Down

Shawn's P.O.V

I held Dani's face gently in my hand. My heart was racing. I was falling for Dani slowly, and all at once.
I leaned in deeper and kissed her slowly. She fell into the kiss as well, so I didn't stop. I kissed her with every ounce of my being. I went to pull back, but she kept me close.
"Don't stop." she breathed.

Luke's P.O.V

"Rae, please. She's not responding and I need answers."
"Luke, I might be mad at her, but I'm not giving in."
"What if Mikey just ran away? What if you needed him and he didn't answer? Please."
"Luke... You can't go causing a scene. I've heard about repercussions to all of this as is." Rae pleaded.
"Thank you." It all clikced then and there.
"Luke! Don't!"
I was already gone.

Dani's P.O.V.

I collapsed on the bed next to Shawn, breathing heavily. "Wow." I gasped for air, but all I felt was regret.
"Yeah... Wow." he replied.
Before any other words could be exchanged there was a knock at the door.
"I'll be right back." he jumped up, quickly throwing his shirt and pants back on and ran downstairs.
I slowly got out of the bed, taking everything in. I quickly got dressed when I heard arguing downstairs.

Luke's P.O.V

"Where is she?" I scowled as Shawn opened the door.
"Not here, Luke."
"Dani!" I shouted, but no response.
"Luke, are you okay?"
"Just tell her I need to see--" I cut myself off as I looked over Shawn. "You're shirt is on backwards."
"You just woke me up with your violent knocking, I got dressed in panic."
I pushed him against the wall, "If you touched her so help me--" I growled.
"At least I'd touch her and not other girls."

Dani's P.O.V.

I quickly grabbed all my things from the bathroom and closet and watched what was going on from the stairs, trying to map my way out.
Luke raised his fist and went for a swing, but Shawn dodged.
"Stop it!" I screamed.
"Dani." They both gasped, pulling away from one another.
"You two are acting like children. I am not some prize to be won, grow up!" I stormed passed them and knelt down next to Luke's car, crying.
"Dani..." Luke spoke out.
"Don't."
"Do you want a ride home?" he asked, with a kicked puppy look on his face.
I nodded as the tears streamed down my face, Luke gave me his hand to get up, and opened the door.
****
Luke didn't go straight home, he took a drive up an unfamiliar hill.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Driving." He chuckled.
"Where?"
"A place."
"Forget I asked."
"Just hold on, were almost there." he replied, trying not to smile. "Here."
"This is where they shot La La Land." I gasped.
"It's pretty nice actually." Luke responded, reaching out to lead me, but I ignored it.
Luke turned the radio up a few notches and set his phone on the dash. I was going through your Spotify and heard this... "Let You Down", and it really hit me..." he trailed off, but he has no idea.
As the song went on and Luke continued to try and apologize, all I could think of was my body entangled with Shawn's just moments ago. I practically jumped out of the car ready to throw up.
"Dani?" Luke jumped after me.
"Just give me a minute. I need to breathe." I snapped.
After a few minutes Luke came out of the car again and "A Lovely Night" from La La Land was playing and he took my hand. Luke began singing along and trying immitate the scene from the moving. It was all going just fine, til I began crying again.
"Sorry." he sighed.
"Me too." I cried.
"What?"
I sat down on the bench and explained everything to Luke. He sat in silence when I finished.
"I... I can't say I blame you..." he let out.
"What?"
"Dani, I left you all alone with this amazing, charming guy, to go sleep with my ex. I can't beleive you didn't try to get out of the contract to leave me."
"It's not that easy, I'm sure." I sighed. "I still don't want this Luke, but I know something bad will happen if this doesn't get fixed or terminated the way the papers say."
"By the end of the week..." he sighed.
"Excuse me?!"
"If his isn't resolved by the end of the week, something bad happens. That's why I've been trying so hard... And the flashbacks, or whatever they are." he faded.
"Luke?"

Luke's P.O.V.

I stopped in my tracks. A moment came over me. I was in a bar kissing Arzaylea... Then the news read we were b ack together and Dani was a fake?
"Dani!"
"What? What happened?"
"I can either see into the future or I finally understand what you mean when you say this isn't real."
"Luke, you gotta give me more." she spoke.
"I'm going to sound crazy, but I saw this tabloid about a kiss between Arzaylea and I--"
"And how our relationship wasn't real. I don't know if you're trying to sucker me in, or be genuine, but I've told you everything from the 'old' us."
"The other thing I saw was when you were gone. I listened to your playlist and heard "A Thousand Years" and I remember standing at the aisle watching you walk towards me. I remember dancing the night away, then you collapsed in my arms at the end of the night."
"So, I'm not crazy?"
"No, Dani, that life was real, or something. I get now why you think you sound crazy."
We both let out a small chuckle.
"Maybe you're just imagining the things I told you. There's so much more behind it all than just us. If we were brainwashed or something, our families and everything would be too." Dani sighed.
"Can we figure it out together?" I asked.
"For now." She smirked, "This doesn't mean I forgive you."
"Then this is just between us, or something bad could happen. And for the record... I forgive you." I replied.
"Let's go home, Hemmings."
