THE NEXT DAY

I wake up earlier than usual the next morning because last night was the first time I dreamt about the annoyingly sexy detective. Why did I dream about him? Lucas should be the only one I should dream about! Oh god Ro, you're going crazy! I have to get Harry out of my head. So I text Lucas.

To:Lucas
Good morning, how are you? xx

From:Lucas
Sweet texts from you makes it up for a good day. xx

I start to smile like an idiot, see? Even Lucas makes me blush a lot more right? Hey he's my boyfriend and I love him!

To: Lucas
Aww you're so cute!:)Wanna go out today? I'm bored.

From: Lucas
Sure, I choose the place, I'm coming to pick you up any minute so get ready fast. I love you xx

He's the best. Yet I'm having frustrations over another man!

I finally get out of my bed and grab my towel to go to my bathroom for a good shower. When I am done-I want to wear something nice today- I pick a black and pink floral, knee lengthy dress and some comfortable, stylish sandals. I comb my hair to remove the knots and let it loose. Now I'm ready.

"Ro! Sleepy head, wake up its 8:30!"I hear my brother shouting near my door. I giggle and I open the door smiling at him. He looks at me- or should I say, scans me up and down- probably wondering why I am dressed up like this.

"Oh, going out with Styles huh?"He teases me and I gasp in shock. Why would he think I am going out with Harry? Who is Harry to me? No one, just a detective who is helping us find dad. Thats it, and all it'll ever be.

And you have a crush on him!

No I dont!

You know how in movies, there are those Angels and Devils at the either sides of your head telling you annoying things? In other words, my conscience, but I mentally whack them with a baseball bat to get them to shut up and bring myself to talk to Scott.

"Scott! I'm going out with Lucas, no one else, he's on his way now." I tell him and he nods his head and laughs.

"Jeez calm down, I was testing you. You should have seen your face!"Scott laughs at me and I roll my eyes.

"Get a life, Scottpid and let me live mine!" I say to him and go downstairs to see mom. She's made us some breakfast so I eat fast because Lucas will be here any moment.

"Have you heard from Mr Styles?" Mom asks me. I know she wants to know if he found something that could lead us more to dad, but I can't tell her that I was at his office last night. She still thinks I was at Delilah's so let's keep it that way.

"No, did he call or say anything?"I ask her and she shakes her head, disappointed.

"Okay....oh, and what a pretty dress you're wearing! Going out with Lucas?" Mom asks me knowingly, smiling as she looks down at my dress. I smile at her. Good, at least mom doesn't tease me about Harry, like Scott does.

Probably because Scott can tell I might have the slightest attraction to Harry.

"Yes mom, he's coming to pick me up." I tell her and she nods her head. Before anyone can say anything, the doorbell rings and I squeal in happiness thinking about Lucas. I get up to open the door, as excited as I am.

"Hey Lucas." I say, while opening the door and there stood a very cute Lucas wearing a tight black collar shirt and some jeans, holding a beautuful bouquet of red roses in his hands. Awww he's so cute.
