I woke up, still on Luke's chest. His chest was going up and down, slowly, indicating that he was breathing and probably sleeping.

I looked up and I was right. He was soundlessly asleep with his mouth open. A little bit of drool came out of his mouth and giggled quietly.

I smiled from what happened earlier, when he stood up for me. Yes, it wasn't the best date I ever had, well, I only had 2 dates in my lifetime, but before that, I had fun.

I wondered what was suppose to happen next. I looked out of the window in his room. It was dark, for sure. I wonder what time it is.

Quietly taking my phone out of my pocket, I checked the time.

8:30.

I should go home.. But I don't want too.. I sighed and I woke up Luke, gently.

He slowly opened his eyelids, revealing his beautiful blue eyes. He groaned and turned the other way, pulling his blanket up.

"I don't want to get up" he whined.

He turned back around and wrapped his arms around me.

"Luke, I might have to go" I muttered to him.

"No, please stay" he whined, pulling me in closer.

"Luke.. I can't. My mom is going to get mad.." I sighed. "Plus, we're not dating.."

Luke's face fell and put his lips in a firm line. I know what I said was wrong, but we're not dating. I don't want to cuddle someone, kiss them on the lips and do all of that couplely shit, and be not his girlfriend. It just doesn't make sense to me.

"Then, Flora, would you like to be my girlfriend?" He suddenly felt nervous.

I smiled and kissed his cheek.

"Nah.." I joked.

"Meanie"

"I'm kidding, Luke"

His face turned into a happy grin before his lips pressed against mine. He pulled away after 5 seconds of the kiss (AN: hahaha get it? No? Okay.)

I mean, it's not the way to ask a girl put, just out of the blue like that, but at least I am dating Luke now. I am happy, for once.

"Now that we are dating, can you stay here?" He asked.

I sighed and shrugged. He kissed me on the cheek and got up. He grabbed some pajamas for me and tossed it to me, which ended it hitting me on the face. He mumbled a 'sorry' and I laughed.

"I have to tell my mom though" I told him.

He nodded and he told me he was going to change in the bathroom. He closed his bedroom door while I took my phone out. I unlocked it and went to my contacts and pressed 'My homie (aka mom)'.

I held the phone to my ear as it rang. After waiting for a few more rings, she picked up.

"Hi, sweetie" she greeted.

"Hey, mom. I'm sorry for doing that thing I did yesterday. I was in sort of a rush" I apologized.

"It's okay" she accepted my apology. "So, where are you guys?"

"Oh, well..."

I can't tell her about my encounter with the 2 assholes. As much as I love my mom and that she is one of my homie's, I can't tell her. I never told her that I was bullied at school. I trusted my mom, but not enough to give her that kind of information.

"I'm at Luke's house" I told her. "Can I stay here for the night?"

"Honey.."

"Mom, I am super bored at home. You're really busy with work, dad is still on his business trip, and I have nothing to do all day" I said, almost shouting.

She sighed and I heard shuffling of papers in the background.

"Fine, but don't be late tomorrow or I will ban you from sleepovers" she warned. "Be home by 12"

I smiled and thanked her. I told her goodnight and hung up.

I quickly changed into his clothes, which his shirt was down to my knees and his pajama pants were literally sagging down, making me have to pull it up all the time. Luke knocked and told him that he can come in. He opened the door and closed it behind him. When he saw me, he was laughing.

"What?" I whined. "Do I look bad?"

"No no. It's just that you're so small and my clothes on you are so big" he chuckled and went over to me to kiss me on my forehead.

"So, what did your mom say?"

"She said that I have to be home at 12 tomorrow so.. You know what that means" I grinned.

He picked me up and gently tossed me on the bed. I giggled and he went on top of me. He pecked me on the cheek and wrapped his arms and legs around me. He was still on top of me and since he was way bigger than I was, I had trouble breathing.

"L-Luke" I tried to say. "I can't breathe"

He widened and mumbled a 'sorry' before he got off of me. He lied next to me and smiled. He started to play with the ends of my brown hair.

"I'm happy" he said cheerfully.

"I'm too" I said back.

I turned so I could face him. He scooted me closer to him until we were 2 inches apart, feeling his minty breath against my face.

"Thanks for saving me today" I thanked him.

"You're welcome" he smiled.

Although he still had bruises on his face, he was still pretty hot. I ran my fingers through his soft blonde hair while he played with my tips.

"This date wasn't suppose to be like this" he sighed.

"I know" I told him. "It's just those 2 assholes ruined it"

He nodded.

"Maybe next time" I brought my hands down and he whimpered.

"No, keep doing it. I like it" he whined.

I chuckled at his cuteness and continued to massage his hair. We lied there in silence; a nice silence though.

"Wanna eat? Mom made fish&chips" he said hungrily.

My stomach growled and so did his. I nodded quickly and we both got up, our hands still intertwined until we got to the kitchen.
