After what happened on valentine's day we tried to come up with a plan to tell people. I was going to start with my dad, and then Luke and I were going to tell Michael together... at some point. It was currently Tuesday and so far every time we had an opportunity something else came up. I still had the boot cast on my leg and it was just annoying at this point, Luke thought it was hilarious and kept carrying me around the house if nobody was in. I had a follow up appointment after school today to check up on it and take off the cast. Dad was taking me to the appointment so I was planning to tell him afterwards.

Right now we were sitting in chemistry and Luke has a hand on my thigh as we write down notes. The assignment we were doing was nearly over, we just had one more part to do today and then we had to write the pages up.

"Do you have the numbers for the thingy?" Luke asks looking up at me.

I raised an eyebrow at him, "thingy? Come on that could be anything" I chuckle.

"You know the one with the bubbles," he chuckles, squeezing my thigh lightly.

"Oh you mean, the h2o2 yeast reaction?" I smile putting my hand on top of his interlocking my fingers with his.

He smiles, "yeah that's the one, I'm not sure where I put the sheet with it on," he chuckles squeezing my hand.

I roll my eyes and pass him my sheet with all the numbers on it, "it's that one" I say pointing to the right numbers.

"You're cute when you are annoyed at me," he whispers in my ear.

I smile rolling my eyes at him, "shut up Hemmings," I smile up at him.

"You coming over later to work on this?" he chuckles pointing to the pieces of paper scattered in front of me.

"I can't have the doctor's appointment," I sigh leaning on the desk.

Luke pouts, "but I thought that was tomorrow..."

"Nope it's today, remember, my dads, taking me and then I'm telling him about us over dinner..." I whisper, "maybe you can come over after?"

"Ohh maybe," he smiles, "just text me when you get back?"

I nodded, "sounds good," I smiled and held his hand under the table.

The rest of the day went as I expected, my dad picked me up, and we went to the doctors, but the nurse who always sees me came in to help the doctor.

"So, Olivia how's your boyfriend, I almost thought he would bring you today, you're such a cute couple," she smiles trying to make small talk with me and my dad.

I bite my lip and look at dad, he still had no clue about Luke, this made my job of telling him way easier, "you have a boyfriend? I thought you and Sam broke up," he says looking back at me.

"Can we talk about this later?..." I mumble putting a hand through my hair.

He nodded, "Fine... but invite him to dinner with us, I want to meet this guy."

"He's not my- fine..." I decided against fighting him on this and decided I would just tell Luke to meet us for dinner.

I get cleared to take my boot cast off but still need to wear a bit of support but that's only for a week and then I will be free from it. On the way to the car, my dad tries to talk to me about this boyfriend I apparently have.

"Ok, I don't have a boyfriend. That nurse just thinks that Luke is my boyfriend. When I hurt my wrist and he brought me to hospital but we didn't want to tell her that because she was so nice, but Luke and I started seeing each other just after new years and now we're dating..." I blurt as we get into the car.
