Our Daughter

Adventurous

Once in the parking lot, Luke asks.

"Where are going?"

"Do you mind the woods?"

"No why?" He asks.

"Follow me." I get into my car as does he and I take off out of the parking lot?

"Will you tell me where you are taking me?"

"Will you please shut up?" I ask nicely. He nods as I stop the car at the woods. 

"Okay we need to get to New York." He looks at me.

"There's a plane waiting, that is if you are still up for an adventure." The mischief returns to his blue eyes.

"Lead the way Hudson." He says and I do I lead us. I lead us to where the cabin in the woods was, where Fred or "Duck" was waiting for us.

"Now Hudson you sure you wanna do this and is your boyfriend sure?" He asks.

"Fred, this is Luke. Not my boyfriend and I'm pretty sure, are you?" I turn to Luke.

"Hell yes." He answers.

"Then climb aboard the Duck Plane nd get ready for the hour trip to New York." We sit down in the seats and get ready for take off. I close my eyes and wait until this flight is over.

"Loren." Luke says once its over and I look at him. He looks at our hands, which somehow during the flight got intertwined.

"Luke?"

"Loren. I think-." Luke starts, but Fred opens the door and let us out.

"We'll talk later." I promised him getting out of the plane.

"Now there's a hotel waiting for you because I didn't know how long you'd be staying here and theres a car waiting to take you to the heart of the city." He says handing me a phone and a set of keys.

"Thanks Fred, see you next time." I said hugging him.

"Be good to him." He says lowly in my ear as we hug.

"Nice to meet you sir." Luke says shaking Fred's hand.

"Likewise, now get going you to." He says. Luke and I walk towards the car. It was black and I sat in the back with Luke as another person I recognized started driving.

"Hey Troye, is there a partition?"

"Yeah Miss. Hudson." He looks back and smiles at me.

"Could you put it up, I need to talk to Lucas." He nods respectively and clicks a button and a black glass tinted window started to roll up. I turned towards Luke.

"Luke?"

"Yeah Loren?" He answers looking out the window.

"Look at me." He looks at me and smiles. "What's wrong?"

"I can't tell you." He mutters. I sigh.

"Why not?"

"It would ruin our friendship." He leans his head against the window. I run my fingers through his soft blonde hair.

"Nothing could ruin our friendship. You're my best friend and I will always want to be friends with you."  He looks at me then back out there window. "Maybe even something more." I mumble.

"Oh fuck it." He says and I look at him. He lunges at me and slots our lips together perfectly. He's lying on top of me, my arms around his neck, his resting on my hips gently.

"Woah." I whisper as he pulls away. I knew Daddy didn't like Luke and momma thought he was bad for me. Luke and I cuddled until the car stopped. We stopped at the hotel. I ran up to our room after checking and slid down the door frame. I heard the music start playing, from my phone.

Loren: We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello, "
Little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said...

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes".

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, oh.

'Cause you were Romeo - I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me,
I was begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said...

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes".

Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes".

I walked around the room. I stood in front of the mirror staring at myself.

Oh, oh.

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said...

The door opened and Luke came in, I kept singing.

Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come.
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think.
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

Luke: Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad - go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes".

Loren & Luke: Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

"That's a nice song." Luke says.

"There's a deeper meaning."

"Explain?" He says sitting next to me on the bed.

"Luke. I like you. Like a lot and my parents don't like you, which was kinda the song." I sigh, leaning my head on his shoulder.

"I don't care what your parents say, I love and that's all I really know."
