Finley's P.O.V

I looked at Eli and he mirrored my confusion. What the hell was going on?

I got out of the car and saw someone stomp out of the house, the porch light flickering on. Someone else framed the doorway and from the physique I knew it was Luke. So that was Allie...

What the hell?

"So what, you're running away?" Luke yelled. "Like a coward?"

Allie whirled around, her hair fanning out behind her. "What? It's not like you wanted me here anyway!"

Eli and I exchanged glances, our expressions a mixture of confusion and shock. How had Luke and Allie, the perfect couple, come to this?

I started walking closer as Luke took a couple steps forward, face to face with Allie.

"Don't go guilt-tripping me, Allie," he said.

"Me? What? You're the one who asked me to leave!" Allie shouted.

"Because you were being dramatic!" Luke exclaimed.

My dad appeared in the doorway, startling me as I stood on the porch silently observing the fight as Eli stood behind me.

"What's going on?" I asked quietly.

"I'm not sure," he answered. "Allie came storming down the stairs with Luke following her."

"I left because all you wanted to do was have sex!" Allie yelled.

Luke scoffed. "Please. That's not true."

"Yes it is!" Allie shouted. "Seriously, every time we hang out you try to get in my pants!"

"You like it," Luke shot back.

"Get over yourself, Luke," Allie scoffed.

"Me? What about you?" Luke challenged, coming even closer to Allie.

Next to me, Eli sucked in a breath, as if he was surprised. I was just as shocked as he was.

"All you do is parade me around like I'm some kind of trophy!" Allie yelled. "I always have to do what you want me to!"

That's not true!" Luke hissed. "We go out with your friends!"

"No we don't!" Allie cried, throwing her hands up in the air.

"Oh yeah," Luke paused, his eyes glinting in a way I didn't like. "You don't have any friends!"

If that hurt Allie, she didn't show it. All she did was snap, "Well, at least I'm not always trying to fuck you!"

Luke laughed maliciously. "Right, like you've never wanted it."

"Not all the time," Allie said. "It would be nice to go out once in a while!"

"But what you like to do is boring!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, am I too boring foe you?" Allie said sarcastically. "Am I just too boring for you?"

"Maybe you are," Luke hissed.

"Fuck you," Allie snapped.

"Wouldn't you want to," Luke taunted.

Allie's mouth opened and closed.

"What, no snappy comeback, Sassy Allie?" Luke said. From Allie's expression, I could tell that this nickname meant a lot to her.

"You're an asshole," she said.

"You're a bitch."

"Dick."

"Whore."

"Manwhore."

"Slut."

"Fucker."

"Motherfucker."

Allie opened her mouth and closed it, thinking of another insult.

Luke sneered at her. "Go back to Australia."

Out of all the things that Luke had said, this made me gasp and Allie did too and I saw her shoulders slump and her eyes get glossy in the light.

"Maybe I will," she said, voice thick with tears as she turned and ran towards her car.

Luke stood in shock ad I snapped, "Luke!"

He started and turned, as if just realizing he had an audience. Dad, Eli and I were all glaring at him, stony-faced.

"What's wrong with you?" I hissed.

Luke's face hardened. "Shut up, Finley."

He pushed through us and I heard his bedroom door slam.

Eli looked at me "Fin-"

"Sh," I hushed him. "You go talk to Luke and I'll go talk to Allie."

Eli's P.O.V

I cautiously walked up the stairs, facing Luke's bedroom door. He was pissed of and I knew that guys tended to punch things when they got pissed off. I was just about to knock on the door when I heard a crash and then "Fuck!"

I decided to just walk in.

"Hey, Luke, man," I said, walking in, seeing him on the floor, slumped against his bed.

He glanced up at me and I could tell that he was going to cry. "What do you want Eli? My sister make you come yell at me?"

"No," I said, which wasn't completely a lie. "I wanted to talk to you about what just happened out there," I took a seat next to Luke. "What the hell happened?"

Luke sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "I just... I got pissed and said things I didn't mean."

"What pissed you off?" I asked.

"I don't even know, and I'm not lying to you,"Luke looked at me, his eyes pleading. "But Allie just.came over and.I was in a bad mood because of my mom pressuring me and then I tried to push things with Allie and she snapped and then I snapped.and its all a big mess," Luke buried his face in his hands.

"You said pretty mean things," I said slowly.

Luke groaned and glared at me. "You don't think I know that?"

"But," I continued. "What's important is this- are you sorry?"

"Yes," Luke said immediately.

"Do you love Allie?" I asked, staring him straight in the eyes.

Luke glanced and the ground and then back at me, sighing slightly before whispering, "Yes."

Finley's P.O.V

I followed Allie to her car, where I found her sitting in her backseat, huddled sgainst the side and sobbing. I'd never seen Allie said before, so seeing her cry made me want to go punch my brother. Allie was short to begin with, but seeing her like this made her seem even smaller.

I tapped on the glass and Allie jumped and saw me. I tried to smile encouragingly and Allie unlocked the doors. I slid in and sat next to her, letting her cry before asking, "What happened?"

Allie sniffed. "I came over like usual, and he was kind of in a bad mood and I started talking to him and he tried to get in my pants and I said no and started yelling at him and then he yelled back and then the whole thing just escalated."

I pondered this before asking my next question. "What's 'sassy Allie?'"

Allie sniffed and wiped her nose with her sleeve. "It's his nickname for me," her voice cracked. "He calls me sassy Allie because I'm tiny but I've got sass and attitude like nobody's business."

"That's sweet," I said gently.

Allie sobbed. "But it doesn't matter, because now we're over."

"Luke says things he doesn't mean when he's pissed off," I said, trying.to make her feel better.

"Maybe," Allie said, wiping her eyes. "But... I don't know if he even cares about me."

I chuckled at that. "Allie, I'll tell you one thing about my brother- he's absolutely one hundred percent head over heels for you."

Allie glanced down at her hands. "I love him," she confessed.

I smiled. "I know. You both love each other a whole damn lot."

Allie looked up at me, hope lining her expression. "You think?"she asked.

"Allie, I know."
