↞Winter↠

I was extremely nervous to go to school
today. the number one reason being that I know that luke will be there. of course he will make an attempt to talk to me.

I put on the best pair of jeans I owned and actually did my makeup. in case I ran into luke, I needed to look good.

I heard my bus pull up and I laced up my black converse and walked out the door, an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach.
here goes nothing, I thought to myself.

↞Luke↠

I was at the bus stop with michael, ashton, and calum. all I could think about was winter. god, I was so nervous. what if she doesn't like me anymore? or if she's too scared to talk to me? so many things could go wrong.

"so the girl I was talking to yesterday was winter, as in your winter?" calum asked. I nodded.

"yes. and I don't know what I should do."

"are you kidding? all you have to do is, I don't know, actually have a conversation with her like a normal person would." michael said sarcastically.

"it's not that easy. we've been talking for months and I had to go and ruin everything by asking her for a stupid picture."

"you never said anything about a picture! dang, you're doing pretty well with her then! hemmings got some game!" ashton smirked.

"oh my god, shut up." I said as we climbed onto the bus. I saw her. I stopped dead in my tracks.

of course winter rode our bus. how could I have never noticed her before?

she was sitting with matt and joey, her two friends. as I walked by I saw matt give me a smirk.

winter noticed me and just stared. I opened my mouth to say something, but then I froze. I guess I forgot how to speak.

"what was that about?" said ashton as he climbed into the seat with michael and calum.

"it was winter." I said.

"and you didn't talk to her? typical." the three of them shook their heads in disapproval.

"I don't know what happened. I just kind of froze." I mumbled. not like it mattered to them anyways.

"stop being a coward. go talk to her. now. " ashton sighed.

"how did I not notice that luke hemmings, the hottest boy in school, rode our bus?" matt said.

"oh god he's coming over here. what do I say? he looks so good and all I have on is a nice pair of jeans." I sighed.

his hair was styled perfectly and his blue eyes popped ever so slightly when he noticed me.

thank god we were at school. I practically jumped out of my seat to avoid a conversation with luke, when a hand pulled me back.

"hi." luke stood in front of me, playing with his lip ring and not making direct eye contact with me.

"oh uh hi." I said.

"you okay?" he asked.

"uh yeah. this is just, awkward to say the least." I said.

then there was silence. we sat there, being idiots for about a minute. probably the longest minute of my life.

"oh god. what are we doing?" I laughed slightly as I broke the silence.

"oh look, we're at school. nice talking to you winnie." luke finally walked past me and got off the bus.

I saw his friends start yelling at him as I got off of the bus.
