Bad Blood

Lexa's POV

"Luke! Come on! This is serious!" I scolde the blonde boy who was playing with my hair. He smiled brightly at me and put his hands up in surrender.

"Okay, okay. Whats up?" He asked me. I bit the inside if my cheek and decided on how I wanted to word this.

"Its about our future I guess.." I started. His eyes went wide.

"Am I hearing you correctly? Lexa Nicole Hood is trying to talk about the future?!" He mocked. I rolled my eyes and punched his arm playfully. "Continue, darling." He rest his head on his chin and eyes me like a five year old.

"I graduate soon, Luke." I tell him.

"Not for nearly six and a half months, but go ahead." He smiled.

"And you know that my university is all the way in another city. It would take forever for me to try and drive here and then there everyday. And if I move out there, it will be nearly impossible to see you as much." I soon start rambling.

"So...what are you trying to get at?" Luke raises his eyebrow.

I sigh, "I want to know if you would like to move in with me? We can get our own flat, I have enough money for at least half because I am on a full ride scholarship, so I don't need to worry about school, but I totally get if you dont wanna. I mean, you have the band to worry about and you might not want to leave Ash and-"

"Lex!" Luke snaps me out of my rant. "I want to move in with you." He smiles. I felt butterflies in my stomach and a grin from ear to ear on my face.

"Are you serious? I mean there are alway better things you could be doing with your time than me and I don't-"

"Lexa, its fine. I want to move in with you. I want to wake up with you in my arms. I want to be the last face you see at night. I want to come home from band practice and see you working on your school work, and then I would take you in my arms and tell you that you are doing great, even though I have no idea if you are or not. Then during Christmas break, I will fly us out to New York so that way we can see the ball drop on New Years and I will kiss you right at midnight because you are the one I want to be with forever." He finishes with a sweet kiss to my lips. I return the kiss and then smile gratefully at him.

"Sounds like you had this planned out." I beamed. He took my hand in his and kiss the back of it.

"I've had this planned out since the second week we've been dating. You just never wanted to talk about it." He tells me. I blush wildly and shrug my shoulders.

"The future scares me, thats why I don't talk about it." I admit finally.

"Why is that, baby girl?" He questions.

"Because I'm not ready to grow up. I'm not ready to face the world by myself. Or deal with bills and shit. And then we die. I'm not ready for that, Luke." I said in barely over a whisper.

"Listen, you won't be by yourself, okay? I will be with you and we can be as childish as we wanna be. I will make sure that we have every bill paid on time, and if you die, I die. I will have our graves side by side. So you are never alone. Got it?" He took me into his arms.

"I love you so much, Luke." I whispered to him.

"I love you so much more, Lexa." He says.

"Okay, enough being sappy." I laughed and pecked his lips real quick. "Nearing the end of the last three month at school we will go house hunting." I tell him.

"Will do, baby girl." He pats my leg and stands up.

"What do you want to do tonight?" He asks. Have sex, but I wasn't going to admit that.

"Wanna go to the drive in?" I asked.

"Bringing the whole gang?" He questions.

"The whole gang will bring seperate cars in case some people want to get freaky." I laugh and direct that statement towards Luke.

"Hey, its not my fault that you find me irresistible." He winks at me. I roll my eyes and start to text Madison about the plan.
