Chapter 23

Angelina's P.O.V.

I dropped my bags and my mouth was so open that I think that I ate a bug.

All these suspicions and questions from earlier when Flora was texting to someone, smiling and smirking. I knew something was up but, I didn't expect it to be this.

"This- This. Wow" I was speechless and I couldn't breathe.

There in front of Flora's house, stood a limousine and dressed up Calum with flowers in his hands. He smiled brightly, but it was more like a nervous smile.

He looked pretty damn nervous.

I walked up to him and I smiled brightly, trying to hide my fangirling and screaming.

"Hey beautiful" he called me.

"Hey handsome" I replied back.

He chuckled and I giggled.

"So, I know it's early but, I want to show you something"

"Oh. That's fine. But should I change?" I asked him, feeling kinda awkward.

He laughed and shook his head. He opened the door for me and I looked back at Flora.

"Go ahead. Have fun" she mouthed. She gave me two-thumbs up and grinned like a 5- year old she is.

"Did you plan all of this?" I asked him, while stepping inside.

He nodded and his smile faltered.

"Why? Is it bad? Is it cliché?" He asked nervously.

I laughed and shook my head. I scooted a bit farther so he could have some room. I waved to Flora and she waved back before he closed the door. He waved back also and mouthed 'I ship it'.

I laughed and waved goodbye one last time.

We drove off and I looked at him.

He was already staring at me. I blushed and looked away.

"Why do you like me?" I asked, when I looked back at him. "Like, why me? Why not some pretty model or a famous singer or actor?"

He smiled down at me since he was basically taller than me. His beautiful brown eyes looked at me with awe. His jawline was probably sharper than my grades and his hair was in a beautiful mess.

"Because you're different. And I know how cliché that sounds but, it's true" he took me by the hands.

I literally felt like I was in a movie and everything was going in slow motion.

"For 3 years, I dealt with stupid girls who were pretty and dumb" he continued. "I don't go for looks, Angelina. I go for girls who have a beautiful personality. If they are beautiful, like you, then that's a plus".

He squeezed my hands, reassuring me.

I wanted to cry right there but, I couldn't cause' my mascara is literally $30 but, I did tear up a bit.

"And yes, I did just met you yesterday but, I already like you already" he blushed and I wanted to scream.

"You are beautiful, funny, amazing, and everything about you is perfect. I could already tell that you will be the smile that would always brighten up my day, other cuddle bear that would cuddle with me when I am sad, and just, everything else" he continued. "Now, I'm not going to ask you if you want to be my girlfriend, because I feel like that would rush things, but one day, I will ask you. Just so you wait".

I started crying from his beautiful speech. He's not my boyfriend yet, but this still made me happy and I just wanted to kiss him right there.

And that's what he did.

Except it was on the forehead. My face was beat red and my mascara was probably running down my face.

He engulfed me into a hug and whispered ' I know, I'm pretty amazing'.

I nodded in response and we stayed like that until we finally reached the beautiful bright restaurant.

Flora's P.O.V.

Luke came running after the limo drove off.

"Did I miss them?" He came running to me, breathing heavily.

"Yeah" I looked at him weird. "My house is literally 10 feet away. How are you tired?"

"I don't exercise"

"But everybody does..?"

Except for me, of course.

He started laughing and he went on the floor. He was holding his stomach and laughing so hard, while I was looking at him weird.

"Have.. You.. Seen.. Michael?" He breathed between laughs.

I just stood there, not knowing what to say.

"Sorry... Sorry" he finally stopped and wiped a fake tear off his face.

I crossed my arms and glared at him.

"It's cute when you glare" he pinched my cheeks and I swatted his hand away.

"Shut up" I groaned.

"I will if you kissed me"

"Since when did you become such a tease?"

"When you kissed me" he said playfully.

I stick out my tongue at him and he laughed.

He wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pouted.

"You didn't like it?"

My face turned brighter. I didn't say anything.

He stopped and looked at me.

"You didn't like it?" He said in a serious tone.

I shook my head and he took his arm off my shoulders. He pouted and he scratched at the back of his head.

"Oh.."

He was about to walk away when I grabbed his arm and yanked it towards me. That's when I pressed my lips against his. I felt his soft, warm lips against mine. I closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his neck so I could get higher since he was too damn tall.

He snaked his arms around my waist and gently tilted his head so he could make the kiss deeper. My fingers moved up to his hair, running it through.

We finally stopped so we both could get some air.

Second kiss and it was still amazing.

"I like you" he breathed.

We put our foreheads against each other.

"I like you too" I muttered.

We finally hugged for the longest time ever until his mom called him in.

"Luke!! It's time for dinner!!" Liz called.

"Coming!!" He called back.

He kissed me on the cheek to say goodbye and I hugged him one last time before he ran back with his long, giraffe legs to his house.

Everybody is having a good day today.

HEY EVERYBODY!! Get it? No? Okay. Anyways, I'm moving. ;( cri. This is for my girl, Angelina. A gift for you since I am moving. :) I hope you like this chapter.
