Luke's POV

Luke gripped the edge of his seat as Alex sped from the parking lot. He knew that it was a bad idea to let Alex drive anyone anywhere because of how terrible he drove. As Alex made a sharp left, barely dodging oncoming traffic and speeding down the road toward's his brothers guitar shop, Luke relaxed a little. For now he was safe since Alex was not making any turns or backing up.

"Mate! How do you get with the chicks that you do?!", Alex began. He had one hand on the steering wheel and the other resting on the arm rest of his SUV truck.

Luke shrugged and said, "Mate, relationships are mutual things. You just have to get to know them is all."

"No, no, no," Alex said dismissing his statement. "I talk to plenty of girls and get to know plenty of them, but you get top notch chicks at our school to ACTUALLY go out with you? I mean freaking Jacqueline Acuzi, before she left, was all over you mate and she was a peach. In Year 6, Janaea Swinton, before she became alko and I heard Lexi Gardner has the hots for you mate and she's AC/DC. Can you imagine the menage's?! You're dating Anisha whose three bangers short of a barbie but is legit hot. And you are training THE top notch Sheila to be an axe woman mate. I need to know your secret!"

"You focus way too much on looks bro", Luke said slightly disgusted Alex's macho bravado.

Alex laughed and gave Luke a disbelieving look. "Really mate, you're not going to fill me in?"

"There nothing to fill you in on", Luke said. "Some guys have it, some don't."

Luke gave Alex a sly smile. Alex reciprocated with sticking up his middle finger at him.

Alex snorted. "Just to re-iterate, your girlfriend is fucking nuts!"

"Tell me something I don't already know", Luke said rolling his eyes.

"No really mate, listen to me", Alex said taking on a serious tone. "If you don't want what happened to Jacqueline to happen to Roxy, then you need tighten up or just dump Anisha. Bro fucking decide who you want to be with."

"What are you getting at?", Luke asked slightly confused by Alex's sudden onset of seriousness.

"Its like your doing the same thing all over again", Alex said. "You're YET AGAIN, secretly crushing on a girl that is not your girlfriend. You're ACTUAL girlfriend, who has a sixth sense about things like that, is picking up on it and plotting to destroy this girl because of YOU...again."

Luke gulped. Was it that obvious that he liked Roxy? He did not want a repeat of what happened last year, but he did not want to give anything up. He had a fucking amazing time with Roxy today in guitar class, and he could see himself being around her a lot more often, at least as a friend.

"She's cool and I just want to be her friend", Luke said. "I'm just teaching her guitar, something I happen to love doing and she does too."

"No....you're trying to have your cake and eat it too", Alex said. "Mate if you don't like Anisha just dump her already! There are plenty guys that she can date after you."

Luke narrowed his eyes."You mean like you?"

Luke had known for a long time that Alex was in love with Anisha. Anisha and Chloe had been friends since kindergarten, and that friendship included Alex as well, since Chloe was his twin sister. They had known each for far longer, and it would make sense that he would like her. But a girl like Anisha would never be that sensitive to a guys feelings. She was far too worried about her image, than actually loving someone.

"No, no", Alex said quickly. "She's like a sister to me."

"Bullshit", Luke said. "You've known Anisha as long as Chloe has and you mean to tell me that you never thought about it?"
