Luke Hemmings
"Im bored come dance with me" Lucila whines and I watch her from the dinner table seeing her fling in the air back and forth. Damn she has so much energy. I want to be good for her but she loves to do things I hate doing.
She cried to me when she didn't make it as Juliet but honestly I was ecstatic because she told me Kenny was Romeo. I was livid but I kept my cool. I don't want her to think I'm jealous. I wonder if she knows what jealousy even is.
Her father has me doing so much work lately since his assistant left him high and dry. I'm exhausted and all I want to do is just lay in bed with Lucila.
I don't know how much longer I can keep this going either. I have to leave her I know I do. What will people think of me? What are they thinking of me? I keep saying I should of never pursued her but I did and I can't stop.
She's been seeing a therapist and honestly it scares the hell out of me that she will accidentally spill the fact I'm seeing her. I love her though. I love her thoughts, smile, body, laugh. Everything I just love her.
No one will understand I never looked at another girl lucilas age I was never interested in them. Lucila is so mature for her age, she's so smart and she's dealt with the death from an early age. I wish I could take her pain away. She carries it so well and with such grace. She doesn't let anything stop her from being the kindest person in the world.
To be someone's first love is a crazy feeling, I'm glad she chose me. When you love someone for the first time you give them your whole self and all of your love.
"What are you thinking about?" Lucila asks her face so close to mine. I want to kiss her I can smell the mint from her toothpaste she just brushed about an hour ago. "You" I whisper and she smiles.
"Lucila will you get out of Mr. Hemmings face he is trying to work. I'm sorry boy." Her father states and I gulp. I was just about to kiss her good thing I bit my tongue. "It's really no problem sir, I enjoy your daughters company" I state and I feel guilty because I enjoy much more than just her company.
"Have you messaged ms. Carrington she's been asking about you." He ask and I shrug "Kim? Oh yes I've been meaning to get around to it" I confirm and he chuckles "son I understand if you're not interested" and I crack a smile "I'll definitely do it I'm just waiting " I tell him and he shakes his head "I won't push you" he tells me before walking away.
...
I haven't seen Lucila in a good few hours and I'm feeling almost concerned. I want to know what she's doing but I also am so close to finishing the work for the day.
My phone goes off and I pick it up "Luke?" I hear Kim's voice and I try not to groan. "Hey Kim right?" I question and I hear a faint yes. "I'm sorry I haven't got around to messaging you" I continue. "Luke it's no worries I understand if you're not interested" she fights and I sigh "I am interested you're a great women I'm seriously just busy ms.carrington" I tell her and every word I say is a lie.
"Who are you interested in?" I hear a voice ask and I know it's Lucila. I hold my finger up to her and she rolls her eyes and walks away.
"Luke?" I hear Kim question over the phone. "Yeah? I'm sorry what did you say?" I ask and she responds with "would you like to go out tomorrow " I'm quick to say yes to end the call "yes I'll see you at six email me your address tomorrow. Have a goodnight Kim" I tell her and I don't know how I'm going to smooth this over with Lucila.
