Month later
It was the day before thanksgiving I was helping Liz cook in the kitchen. Luke was better now. I started making pumpkin pies. I rolled the dough for the crust laying it in a pie pan. Luke sat at the island watching us. "I forgot cranberries" Liz says "I can go get some" I say "no I'll go" Liz says walking to the door putting on her shoes and coat. The weather was getting chilly she walked outside as I kept making pies I put the crust in the oven setting a timer luke started digging though the cabinets looking for food I jumped up on the island counter sitting watching him "babe you hungry" luke says looking over his shoulder grabbing a cookie "no I'm good thanks" I say he ate his cookie then walk over to me I wrapped my legs and arms around him I smile looking up at him he kisses me as I kiss back the kiss turned into a make out Luke's arms were under my butt pickings me up my arms around his neck softly. I pulled away resting my forehead on his and smiled at him as he kissed me again before putting me back on the counter I giggle as he stood in front of me holding my hands "I love you" he whispers "I love you too" I smile the moment was ruined by the timer for the pies I jump down grabbing the hot crust out of the oven placing it on top of the stove I started rolling the dough for the next pie placing it in the pan then putting it in the oven Liz walked in with a bag she took of her shoes and coat "everything going okay?" She asks "perfect" I say and smile at her I filled the pies with pumpkin then put them in the fridge "where is dinner tomorrow" I ask "Luke's brother jacks house" Liz smiles "okay what time are we leaving" I ask "umm around 1:00 it's about an hour drive" Liz says "okay thanks" I walk up to my room picking out an outfit for tomorrow luke sat on my bed playing a game or something on his phone I pulled out a maroon dress the was mid sleeve and a little shorter then the knee I then pull out a pair of nude color tights with black flats "does this look okay" I ask holding the dress to luke "yeah perfect babe" he says his eyes not leaving his phone "luke you didn't even look at it" I say his eyes move up to the dress quickly "it looks wonderful baby" he smile i laugh at him I sit next to him i played with his hair "luke can I do your makeup" I ask "no" luke says "please love it will come off" I beg making a pouty face "fine" luke says "really!"
