*Do you really think I'll leave the comfort of my home to walk all the way to the pier?* I text him back and sit at the table
After a few seconds he replies
*Actually I do. Just get over here*
*What makes you think I'm actually going?* He must be so full of himself to think I'm gonna show up
*Because I'm asking nicely. Stop playing hard to get and just get your ass here*
*I'm going to sleep and you should too, we have class in the morning* I text him back wanting to turn my phone off but I don't
*Alaska, please* I can imagine his voice cracking. I just stare my phone for a second, not knowing what to text back. and I don't have to, Luke texts again *Please, I need you*
Three simple words that knocked me out of my game. Three words that made me weak. Three words that made me stand up and go find my sneakers and sweater.
*On my way* I send him and write a note to Taylor in case she wakes up and I'm not home
My flat is 10 minutes away from the pier. The night is dark and streets are empty, the only sound I hear is from my light breath. It's a bit cold which makes me miss home, I'm wearing a black shorts with a gray hoodie and my white sneakers.
I get to the pier and see Luke sitting at the edge with his legs hanging. He's with the usual black skinny jeans and a black hoodie.
"Hey, what's so urgent you had to drag me out of bed?" I sit next to him.
"Ashton kicked me out of the dorm" he says looking at the ocean. He looks sad and tired.
"Why would he kick you out?" I put my hands in the hold of my hoodie
"He's mad at me" Luke bites his lips "Can we please not talk about this right now?"
I just nod and look down.
"You know you can crash at my place" I look at him "Taylor wouldn't mind"
"That's not why I texted you" he looks at me "I texted you because I needed you. I wrote that"
"Yes, and I read it" I'm not following "So what do you need?"
"Can we stay here until the sun comes up?" I feel like his dodging my question
"Luke it's almost 4am and we have class in a few hours" I try to sound reasonable
"Can you ask the good girl in you to leave the room just for a moment?" He rolls his eyes "C'mon! You have a hot guy asking you to stay up all night with him and all you really want is getting enough sleep and go to college?" His baby blue eyes stare me
"You're not that hot" Who am I kidding? "And that's called being responsible"
"We're not supposed to be responsible!" He smiles "We are supposed to make mistakes and live life at the most of it"
"Then what do you plan to do?" I know this won't end up well
"Nothing dangerous or anything like that" He takes a deep breath "I just wanted to sit here and chill"
"And explain me why you had to text me?"
"Do you have short memory problem?" He asks me rolling his eyes "I said I need you, that's why you're here"
"To do what? Observe the stars?" This is very pointless
"Some girls would think this is romantic" He comments "But no, I didn't text you to observe stars"
