//That Boy Luke Hemmings\\

Chapter 8

~Brooke POV~

Today was the little date thing Luke had ask me out to yesterday. I wasn't gonna dress up or anything special. Maybe just a little bit. Like put on a tiny amount of makeup. This is totally obvious now that Luke likes me. He's only known me for about two weeks. He had been acting a little bit weird but I don't necessarily care really. As long as he isn't doing anything bad.

"Hey, the movie starts at 5:30 be ready by 4," Luke said as he marched down the stairs. I only look at him to show I heard what he said. We both just smile. I rethink what he just said. "Wait, why so early?" I question. It wouldn't make sense to hour and a half early. "Just don't worry about it,"

I looked at the time. It read 3:49 pm. It was fine because I only needed to put on my shoes and grab my phone, and whatever else. I always forget things so I wouldn't be surprised if I forget anything for this date.

I grabbed everything I needed. My phone, and I small jacket because I don't wanna be an idiot like last time, and some gum because why not. I came down the stairs ready. And there was Luke in his normal attire a t shirt with some black skinny jeans. His skinny jeans are so tight I feel like I could fit in them.

As we walked out to the car together. I offered to drive but he insisted that he drove. We both sat down in the car. He started the car and we drove off.

"You look beautiful" he compliments me. Why did he say beautiful? And not like nice or anything casual. I wont question it. He was just being nice like he always is. "Thank you" I only mumble. "Same for you" I sorta whisper. He smiles. His smile is something I wanted to see everyday. It makes me happy. Luke just makes me happy in general. I love Luke. I don't usually use "love" as a term. I haven't used it for about a year. I haven't had anybody to love since I saw my mom. It felt weird saying I loved somebody I've known for two weeks.

"We're here" Luke stops the car and points. I read the sign. "Ice Cream" I just smile at Luke. "You know, that I love ice cream." I tell him. "Good, but I know now," he smiles. I follow him as he enters the place. We look at all the flavors together. He decided to get Cookie Dough. I looked around getting the Mint Chocolate Chip. It was my favorite flavor. We sit down across from each other.

"Is that your favorite flavor?" I ask him. "No but I felt like getting this kind, ya know?" he says in return. "What about you? Is that your favorite flavor?" he asks. "Actually, yes it is." as I lick the ice cream. I could tell Luke was nervous. I could just tell. He had chill down in his bones.

"What is the flavor you got? What's it called?" he points at my ice cream "Mint Chocolate Chip" I tell him. He chuckles in the cutest way. "I love the way you say it. Its so cute" he smiles a huge grin. I just sarcastically pout towards him.

"I've never tried that kind of ice cream I don't think." he tells me. I gasp towards him. "Why?!?" "I don't know, there's always so many flavors to choose from." I only nod. "Can I try some?" he smirks. I shake my head "please?" he says in a baby voice. "No" he pouts towards me. "Ugh, whatever Luke" I push my ice cream towards him like I was sacrificing the last ice cream on earth.

He takes a huge lick. I acted disgusted when he handed it back. But he knew I didn't mean it. I slowly like the spot he licked. I knew he covered up that he never tried that kind of ice cream. But I don't really mind.

We both finished our ice cream cones. We went back to the car together sitting where we were before. "Brookey- Brooke," he studders. I look up. "You're so adorable when you're eating ice cream." he says. He boops my nose quickly and starts driving to the movies.

"So, you never told me what movie we're gonna see" I ask kind of confused. "Lion King. I've known you've probably seen it before but I wanted to see it with you" he says proudly. "Awe that's sweet."

We had arrived at the movies. And we got some chocolates, a medium popcorn, and a large soda. We began walking into the movies together. I was holding the popcorn and the chocolates while Luke was holding the soda.

We sat in the back row. I like the back row. Its better because there's nobody watching you behind you. The advertisements took about 10 minutes but I didn't mind as long as I was in Luke's comfort.

The movie began to start. Luke casually slipped his arm around my shoulder. "You know that I noticed that, right?" I point out. "Yeah I know Brookey." I smile at him.

As I watched the movie it brought back memories of my childhood. It wasn't even really a childhood. I was used to be so independent as a child. I snapped put of my somewhat horrible thought so realize I was curled up next to Luke. His head was rest in on my head. He was being so cute. "You're so cute" he compliments me.

The movie was over. I love the Lion King. I also love Luke. I love my life right now. Its all I could imagine. We both get up from cuddling. Also all of the food and soda was gone. I blame Luke because I barely had any popcorn. We shared the drink but I didn't mind. We got back to the car together. My legs were numb from sitting there for about two hours. For some reason I kinda like the feeling of being numb.

"Is this Why you're so nice to me?" I ask Luke. He knew exactly what I meant. I was practically asking him if he likes me. "Yes, that's why." he replies with a grin. Luke had just addmitted he liked me. He knew it too. He seemed so confident about it too. It was obvious that he did like me but the way he had admitted it to me was so cute. It was silent for the rest of the way home.

Beep beep
Mary is calling you
It was Skype. My old pal was skyping me. I missed her so much. I answered it.

"Hi Mary oh my gosh you dyed your hair again."

"Yeah do you like it?" she replied.

"Of course I do!!!" I excitingly say back.

"So, what are you up to?" she questions.

"Oh, I'm just here driving.....home" I swallowed hard and I don't know why.

"Yeah, it's your home alright." Luke chirps in.

"Ooh who's that I hear?" Mary smirks.

"Its my....." I start, not knowing what to say.

"I'm her boyfriend Luke" he smiles. I was confused. Why did he say that?

"Oh why didn't you tell me?!" Mary snaps.

"I didn't even know either Mary." I reply still shocked.

"Oh, it's okay. I'm gonna go though. I love you! Bye Brooke and Luke!" she says.

"Bye" we both add. "I love you too" I smile and hang up the call. I know I said I don't like saying love to anybody but I loved Mary. She was always there for me no matter what. She was the one who cared about me when nobody was there. And she's the only one who talks to me from Seattle still.

We arrived back home. Ashtons stuff was all gone. He was gone. He had left a note

You guys were gone so here's a note.
I love you guys. Keep in contact. I'll be over tomorrow anyways. Love you. Thank you for letting me be with you all these years. But I wanted my own house since I'm 18 now.
-Ash x

We both finished reading the note and smiled. "I'll really miss Ash" Luke said. Even though he was so mysterious I liked Ashton too. He was sweet.

I already started to put my stuff in Ashtons old room. Now it's mine. Luke helped me moved the rest of my stuff, there wasn't a lot but I appreciated his help.

"So" I say lifting up a box "why did you say boyfriend earlier?" I say to Luke confused. "Uhh" he starts. He took my box and put it down. And he grabbed my hand and we both fell onto the couch. "I was wondering if you wanted to be my girlfriend, Brooke Davis?" he said in the most proud way he could. I couldn't let Luke down after I fell in l-love with him, and especially what he's done for me. I was looking so hopeful at me. "Of- of course Luke" I studder. He grabs me and hugs me so tightly.

Me and Luke were boyfriend and girlfriend. I could finally call him mine. We cuddled on the couch together. "I love you Brookey." he kisses my nose. "I love you too." I could feel my heart get big hearing Luke say those words. And I actually felt loved by somebody else, not forgetting about Mary. We were cuddled together still. I could feel his heartbeat on me. It was so calm. I drift off to sleep and I think Luke did too.
