Chapter 44

"I don't always get the pumpkin spice latte!!"

"Yes you do!!"

"No, I don't!!"

"Luke, admit it" I turned to look at him.

"Okay.. Maybe once in a while.." He began.

"Ha! I knew it" I crossed my arms in satisfaction.

"You're cute" he whispered on to my neck, his lips brushing past my ear.

"And you're a penguin"

"Way to ruin the moment"

"It's true though!!" I laughed.

He rolled his eyes and laid kisses on my neck, making me shiver down to my spine.

"Luke.." I whined.

"Yes..?"

"You're making me feel weird.. Like I have a weird feeling in my stomach"

"That's called 'Love'" he smirked.

I rolled my eyes and pecked him on the lips. I wrapped the blanket around us tighter. My legs and arms are wrapped his while his hands played with my hair. Pretty Little Liars was rolling on the TV.

"Do you love me?" He asked me.

I furrowed my eyebrows. In middle school, the day after you start dating, you already say 'I love you', but this is different. 'I love you' is a pretty big word to say, it's not that easy.

Did I love Luke? We've been only dating for a week, but it felt like we've been dating more than a week. Plus of what happened a few days ago, I don't know.

I didn't respond to him.

"Do you?"

"Luke, I don't know. We've been dating for a week" I told him.

"Oh..." He looked down my from my eyes.

"Luke, this doesn't mean I don't like you. Just give me time" I told him. "I do like you, a lot, actually"

He looked back up again and he small-smiled. He didn't say anything and I decided not to either. We continued to watch PLL in utter silence, yet still wrapped in each other's arms.

"Why do you have to go?" He whined.

"Because.. My parents said so" I told him.

I pecked him on the cheek.

"I will be back tomorrow" I winked at him. "I promise"

"Okay" he booped my nose and he told me goodbye.

I said goodbye back and walked down his steps, also saying goodbye to Jack. I walked back to my house in the chilly weather. Wrapping the coat that was around me tighter, the smell of turkey and mashed potatoes filled my nostrils.

I jumped in excitement and ran to my house. I burst my door open and the smell was even more spectacular. I smelt all different kinds of foods. Turkey, gravy, chocolate, and many more.

"Mm.. What's that smell?" I moaned.

"Hey sweetie!!" My mom popped her head out of the kitchen. "I'm making a feast since Tom is back"

Tom is my dad, by the way.

"That's awesome!!" I smiled.

"I also invited the Hemmings over. Liz, Jack, and Luke are coming over"

I smiled brightly and hugged my mom, saying thank you more than a hundred times.

"Dress nice. Your father would want that" she told me.

"Where is dad?" I asked her.

"He went out to see some friends, but he will be back in a few hours" she consulted me. "The Hemmings are coming in an hour"

"Wait, does that mean I have to wear a dress?" I groaned.

"Yes"

"Ugh.. Fine, but just this one time"

I wasn't a fan of dresses. The last time I wore one was because Eva and I made a deal at school. She was suppose to wear makeup and I was suppose to wear a dress. When I came to school wearing a dress, she tricked me and she wasn't wearing makeup. I was so pissed off that I didn't talk to her for a week.

That's how much I hate them.

I groaned while I walked up my long steps. I opened my room and saw my messy bed. I quickly fixed it and went to my messy closet.

My mom always encouraged me to wear them when I didn't want to, so she would buy them for me. Of course, I never wore them, which I felt bad because she wasted money on me for no reason, but I told her that I would wear them sometimes.

That never happened.

I looked through 5 of my dresses. One was a long bright yellow, sleeveless dress. It's not summer so I tossed that to the side.

One was a coral pink and white striped dress with no sleeves like the first one. A little too short. I tossed that one on the side.

A white laced with a black bottom dress came into my view. Not bad. I put it off to the 'maybe' side.

I was looking for more until I saw the perfect one. It was a medium blue dress with a black bow tied around the waist. It was a simple dress, yet cute. I put it on, stripping off my pajama, and looked at my mirror.

I looked.. Good.

I smiled in satisfaction and decided to put on some makeup. A little eyeliner and mascara will do. I brushed my hair since I wanted my natural waves and walked downstairs.

I walked into the kitchen and my mom gasped.

"You look beautiful, darling" she smiled, almost on the verge of tears.

"Thanks" I blushed.

"The Hemmings will be here any minute" she told me.

"Did you need help?" I asked her.

"No no. It's okay" she smiled. "Just wait for the Hemmings"

I simply nodded and went to the couch. I waited and read on my phone. Suddenly, the doorbell rang and I shot my head up.

I walked to the door and opened it. There revealed Liz who was dressed in a blue shirt with some dark blue jeans, Jack in a white dress shirt with dress pants, and Luke who was dressed almost the same thing except he had black jeans.

"Hi!! Welcome!!" I greeted them as I lead them in.

I hugged all of them, maybe hugging Luke a little bit more.

"You look so beautiful, Flora" Liz awed.

"Thank you so much" I blushed.

Jack winked at me and I winked back, giggling.

"Wow.. You're.. Wow" Luke was speechless and I laughed.

"The same thing for you" I pecked him on the cheek.

"My mom is in the kitchen if you need her" I told Liz.

Jack and Liz nodded and went to kitchen.

Luke and I were alone now.

sORRY TO END IT HERE!! But I gotta ZAYN. Also, the dress thing with Eva... Well, that actually happened to me before and I am still friends with that girl but not really anymore.
