I woke up on a comfy fluffy bed and I never wanted to leave this bed. Wait this isn't my bed. Where am I? OMG I've been kidnapped. I am going to die. I don't want to die. Then all the events from yesterday came back and I relaxed and breathed out a sigh of relief.
I got out of bed and changed back into yesterdays clothes. I went out the door and downstairs where I heard two voices coming from the kitchen.
"All I'm saying Luke is that you better look out for that girl." I heard Sara say.
"I know mum, I really do." Luke trailed off.
"Whats wrong honey?"
"Mum for the first time in my life I feel something for a girl. I mean I don't know what it is but every time I see her I have this erge to be next to her, to make her laugh to help her out, and whenever I see her with another guy I just feel like punching the wall or pulling her away from them and claim her as mine." He sighed out of frustration. I stood frozen, looking at the wall is Luke talking about me? What does he mean? This can't be happening I mean, he's supposed to fall for me thats the point. But why do I feel guilty. Gosh Emily you screwed up, one minute you want him the next you dont. But this is all part of the plan I was supposed to do this. But why do I feel so guilty then? I started to panic . Do I feel the same way about him . I can't that goes against everythingI have been doing so far.
"Then what are you waiting for Luke? Go ask her out." I heard Sarah interupting my train of thought.
Luke scofed at that "I want to, I really do mum. But.." He paused.
"But, what?"
"She would never say yes. Mum as much as I am embarrased to say this in front of you I am and will always be a player in her eyes." Luke said sadly. I knew what he said was true but I couldn't help but realise that lately I havn't been seeing him as a player at all. But as guy who genuenly cares about me. He helped me with my studies, he backed me up infront of my parents, he saved me from that creepy dude yesterday, he cares about my opinion, hr makes me laugh and not to mention he's a great kisser.
"Luke, look at me," Sara says "I've seen the way you look at each other, and to tell you the truth, I have never seen my son that shy and happy around a girl ever." That made me blush. "If you really like Emily dont miss your opportunity. She would be insane if she said no to you! I mean you get all you good looks from me afterall." I heard Luke chuckle and i did too quietly.
I decided to come out of my hiding spot and tried to pretend I was not eavesdropping. "Good morning Sarah." I beamed, I looked over at Luke "Good morning." I smiled at him briefly.
"Good Morning honey. I would love to stay and chit chat but I have to get to work. You kids have a great day" She kissed Lukes forhead and whispered something along the lines of "Don't forget what we talked about."
"Goodbye Sarah have a nice day," I waved.
We sat there in silence for a moment until Luke broke it. "Do you want breakfast?"
"You cook?" I asked suprised.
"If you call putting cereal and milk in a bowl cooking then sure, yes I am a gourmet chef." He joked.
"Give me the best cereal you have chef," I said whilst giggling causing him to smirk.
"One bowl of cereal coming right up m'lady." I laughed again. He poured the two components into the bowl and passed it to me with a spoon.
"Thank you kind sir." I smiled and dug in.
We ate in comfortable silence and had casual chitchat. After a breakfast he offered to drive me home and I accepted.
During the car ride we kept silent, I couldn't help but think back to the convo Luke had with his mum in the morning. Does he really like me? And if he does what do I do I haven't looked that far ahead in the plan.
Emily you are over reacting just calm down.
"So, do you want me to drive you home?" Luke broke the internal battle I was currently experiencing.
"Why so eager to throw me out?"
This caused him to stumble a little. "No I didn't mean it like that, I mean you can stay as long as you want. I don't mind at all. Mi casa su casa"
Giggling at his reaction. "Actually Brooks I do think it's time I head home."
"It's your call princess." He smiled at me
"Ok I'll just go get my stuff and come down." I headed upstairs running. "Don't leave without me. And for the love of god stop staring at my butt!" Turning pointing an accusing finger at Luke, causing him to blush. Aawwww, he looks so cute.
We drove in silence whilst listening some chill music and having occasional chats. We arrived at my house in no time. But for some reason I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Luke. I know it's stupid I mean I was going to see him in school again anyways.
"Um..Thanks for the ride Luke. No actually thanks for everything."
"I'd do anything for you. And it was no problem I have no problem being a beautiful girl's knight in shining armour."
I was blushing hard, shaking my head in denial and laughing at the same time. I slowly stopped when I felt his hand caress my cheek.
I looked up at his eyes, his beautiful dazzling eyes, and I knew at that moment that this wasn't a game anymore, this meant more, Luke meant more to me then he should have, he was falling for me and I might also be falling for him.He looked straight into my eyes with such intensity, care and love as if he understood what I was thinking, what I felt.
He was so much closer now a few inches away from me and I was not going to do anything about it because in this instant I didn't care.
"You are so beautiful Emily." I couldn't respond I was stuck in a trance, his trance. He leaned closer, our lips were barely touching "so, so beautiful." His eyes remained on my lips.
He finally closed the gap and the electricity and adrenaline came rushing back. The kiss was slow and passionate. We were in sync as if we understood eachother mentally, spiritually and physically.
We pulled apart and we were breathless our foreheads leaning against eachother.
"Go out with me." Luke blurted out breathlessly.
My eyes widened and I blurted the first thing that came to my mind "Unicorns!" I widened my eyes reflecting Lukes confused expresion. "Umm.."
"Emily you can think about it. I'm not trying to pressure you into anything, I would understand if you say no and never talk to me again, it's just that i thought-"
"Okay." I interupted his ramble.
"What?" Luke was confused. He's looked so adorable .
"Ok I'll go out with you." I smiled he looked shocked and was frozen. "Bye Brooks." I kissed his cheek and got out the car.
I ran to my front door and opened it and shut it quickly. I leaned against the door and realisation of what just happened hit me. OMG this goes against everything I was planning.
At that exact moment my phone began to ring. the caller I'D said 'ma bitch' which meant it was Aya.
I answered without hesitation.
"Houston I think we have a problem."
