L U K E
"You're sure you have the flowers "
" Yes Luke," Oliver says annoyed
" And the confetti? "
" Yes, Luke! How many more things do you have to check "
" Just one more, how about the flowers? "
" I've got it, now come on before we're late " He grabs my arm leading us to the car
" Wait wait wait the posters " I grab the posters before I make my way out of the house
I enter the car as Oliver inserts the key to start the car
I tap my foot trying to assure myself that everything will be okay and they is no reason to worry.
" Nervous ? "
He pushes me up to the door to ring the door bell
" Go man, you've got this " He encourages me
I gently nod at him and ring the doorbell
As the door begins to open I feel the dryness in my throat
" Hi Luke ! "
" Hey Char, uh could you come with me real quick ? "
" Oh yeah sure "
I lead her to the car
" Oh actually can you get me a water first, sorry I haven't had water all morning and I'm truly parched "
" Why didn't you get water ?! You could die you know, I'll be right back " She rushes into the house and I grab the poster from the car while Oliver positions him self on the other side of the car
My eyes follow char as she runs out the house " Here you go " , she pants out of breath
" Thank you so much "
I place the glass of water and ice on top of the car
" Wha- I thought- "
* plays random song *
The sound of the song cuts her off
I watch as her facial expression change from confused to even more confused
" Who's playing that music ? "
" Charlotte ? "
" Yeah ? "
I pull out the sign saying " I don't really know what else to say accept will you go to' Hoco with me ? ' "
She slightly turns her head
She places her head down in her arms
I here her voice break and crack as she says my name, " Luke "
The tears that come running from her eyes having meaning behind them, she looks ... hurt ? Upset? Confused ?
" W-what happened, are you okay? I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you cry I just thought- "
" No " She chocks out before continuing " I'm just surprised and super super grateful "
" Oh, I thought I did something wrong - "
She cuts me off by hugging me tightly with her arm hooking over my neck
" Thank you " She whispers into my ear
" Anytime " I whisper back
" Oh and if you didn't already figure it out, yes, I will most definitely go to homecoming with you"
She unhookes her arms from me and smiles
of course I smile back
I give a thumbs up to Oliver, signifying to pop the confetti
The confetti goes off and I can feel Charlotte immediately tense around my arm that is on her hip still
" Oh my gosh " She laughs
He runs up to her, " Hi Charlotte ! "
She leans towards the other side of me to hug him , " Hi Oliver "
" I'm glad you said yes because I spent hours and hours listening to Luke plan this thing and - "
She cuts him off by not hugging him but hugging me
tighter than last time
I hear Oliver chuckle before she lets go

" Green's your favorite color? " I question his strange answer
" Your not any better , you're favorite color is light pink " He exclaims
" Because it's literally the best color ever duh "
" I beg to differ, you know- ", I cut him off with my next sentence
" Pinks better and you just can't admit that "
" No, green's better "
" No pink "
" No green "
" Pink ! "
" Green ! "
" Pin- "
Chase cuts me off by throwing a pillow at the both of us , which only end up hitting Chase" Both of you shut up "
" Chase ", I yell
" which color is better, pink or green ? " I question
" neither, blue is the best "
" Ew " Luke and I say in unison
" What's wrong with blue ? It's the color of the sky"
" Either way pink is the best "
" It's - "
" It is . End of discussion "
" Blue's better " Chase whispers before heading to the kitchen
" Want me to order Fridays ? "
" Yes please ", I lay down on the couch
" Are you staying for dinner Luke? "
" Uh I mean- I won't want to intrude on your family time so I'm just gonna - "
I shove his shoulder not letting him finish his sentence
" Stop it, you know you're not intruding on anything. It's Fridays for goodness sake "
" Charlotte - "
" Please ?? Chase wants you to stay don't you chase "
" Huh " Chase yells
" Can Luke stay for dinner? "
" Yeah of course "
" See ! "
" Fine " He responds, trying to hide his smile
" Yay " I lift from the couch to give him a quick hug before I fall back down
" foods coming in about an hour guys " Chase notifies us
We thank him before Luke turns on the tv and asks me what channel I want to watch
