"When I was little, I was quite chubby," Luke says. He blushes a little.
"Oh, trust me, I was too."
We're having this conversation because Megan Trainor's "All About That Bass" came on in the car.
"I find that hard to believe," he says while eyeing my slim figure.
"I was! I'll show you a picture if I have to. "
He laughs. "Okay, I believe you," he says not too convincingly.
I punch him in the arm. We've gotten quite close these last few days. Bad for me, because the closer I get to him, the more I fall.
I start singing along with the lyrics.
"You have a good voice, Anna."
I snort. "Thanks." He starts singing along with me.
"We should start a band. Ditch Calum, Ash, and Michael." I meant it as a joke but Luke's face darkens still. "Hey I was just kidding, Luke."
"Oh." His face returns to normal. "I thought you were being serious," he laughs.
"Why would I be serious about that?"
"I don't know."
"Hey let's go get some lunch," I suggest. "Okay."
We drive the rest of the way in silence.
