I wake up to what seemed like the afternoon. I found myself back in my bed and everything seemed normal. There was a note on my bedside table that said 'yo me and calum left at around 11 and we didn't want to wake you. we made some breakfast for you when you wake up. thanks so much. -jess and cal-pal'. I set the note back down and was about to step out of bed until I felt every inch of my body ache. I grimaced in pain and layer back down. I hear a cough come from the corner of my room and I froze. I slowly look up and see a chair with a body in it. It slowly moved and I caught a small glimpse of its face. I slowly reached for my water bottle next to me and got ready to throw i but I froze again since it moved again.

Fuck, I thought. I set the bottle back down and got ready to run out of the room. I slowly moved the sheets off and scooted to the edge of the bed. I propped myself up and slowly set my feet on the floor. I lightly set myself on the floor. By now I had just stood up and stayed still. My door was about 8 feet in front of me so I decided to take little steps. I lightly set my toes across the wooden floor, trying to make as little noise as possible. I was about a few inches away from the door now and as I was about to finally step out of my room I turn back to check back on the person. It was still fast asleep, or what it seemed like, and I continued to carefully escape the room, but just as I got out of the room I hear a loud groan and I immediately start to panick. I froze for about two seconds having the door almost fully shielding me hoping they wouldn't see me. Just as I was about to move again I hear more movement and I start panicking again. I hopped out of my place thinking I was able to get out of the room but the body seemed fully alert now and finally stood up. I look at the staircase which was at the end of the hall. Shit, ok Cass just quick little steps and you can go hide in the closet. Just as I was about to start running for the staircase I turn back to check on my room. It was silent again so whoever was there probably went back to sleep. I turned around and I almost shat my pants. I see a huge body in front of me and I scream and headed straight for the stairs. It wasn't too far and I was almost there but I was stopped and was lifted off the ground. I kicked the person in the groin and tried to pry myself off. I fell to the floor and turned around to try and see who it was. I first notice a pair of bright blue eyes and then notice a lip ring. I relax and collapse down to the floor.

"What the actual fuck" I breathed out. "Why are you here Luke?"

"Jess told me someone was going to come at your house at ten and wanted me to watch you. She alsotold me she found you on the floor so I kinda got worried." he said scratching the back of his neck while crossing his legs. "Nice kick by the way."

I smile and apologize. We both head downstairs straight to the kitchen. I find a plate on the counter that has a stack of messed up heart shaped pancakes with blueberries in them. There was also sausages and eggs. I laugh at the nice gesture Jess and Calum had attempted to do. I go to the cupboards and bring out two plates and set them on the counter. I pulled out a chair and sat next to Luke and he immediately started stuffing his face with food.

The day I met Luke was the most oddest day ever if I recall. I met him freshman year, it was in the first and only class, which was science, that I had without Aspyn and I didn't know anyone else. I naturally sat in the back since everyone seemed to know each other and paired up with their friends. The bell had rang and class started and the teacher had decided it was a great idea to actually start teaching on the first day of school. Halfway through the lecture I was starting to doze off until I hear a loud slam. My head shot straight up and I see a boy with a ridiculous fringe come in looking red as a tomato. He explained to the teacher that he wasn't late but spent the half of the period in the wrong class. The teacher had dismissed him and told him to find a seat. I propped my head back on my hand but I was interrupted again by the kid who was late.

"Hey is it ok if I sit here? I mean if it's not then it's ok, this is th-" I cut him off.

"It's ok, just make sure you wake me up when the teacher is looking at me." I close my eyes and I start to doze off. I slowly wake up to the sound of metal falling. I sit back up and I see the whole class staring in my direction. I freeze but I still hear metal falling then I look next to me. My partner was on the floor surrounded by a shit ton of spoons. I hop off my stool and help him up. "What the fuck are you doing, I told you to wake me up if the teacher was looking at me."

"Well he wasn't." he huffed.

"Then explain to me why the whole class is looking at me while I was still asleep?" By this point I was pissed. I was hungry, I hated this class, and I just got embarrassed on the first day of school. I see the teacher walk towards us and hand us two pink slips. Great, detention on the first day of school. We both headed towards the principal's office, me ignoring him. Once we get there the secretary told us to sit on the seats that were just outside of the closed door of the principal's office.

"Why were you on the ground surrounded by metal spoons?" I ask turning towards him breaking the silence.

He looks up at me with a silly looking smile, "Oh I just carry spoons with me." I start laughing.

"Anything else you got there in that bag ya magician?" I ask jokingly. He then puts on a serious face. I stop laughing thinking I said something offensive. He comes up to me right next to my ear.

"I can show you my didgeridoo." And at that moment I burst into laughter almost falling to the floor. The secretary looks up at us and scowls. I try to straighten up and bit back my laughter.

"Was that your attempt of a pick up line?" I ask wiping my tears.

"No I'm serious, I have a didgeridoo" he then proceeds to pull it out. At this moment I just started laughing uncontrollably. While I was trying to hold everything in the secretary call our parents to pick us up for a suspension. At the moment I could care less about what happened. I found myself a nerd who made me happy no matter how bad the situation.

I finish eating my pancake and set my plate in the sink. I head back to my room feeling already exhausted. I climb upstairs while Luke followed. I open my bedroom door and find a pair of socks.

"Do you mind if we cuddle for a bit, to make up for earlier?" Luke asked lying on my bed. I just nod not wanting to start a conversation. I climb into the bed pulling myself under the blanket. Luke's arm snakes around my waist and rests his head in between my neck and shoulder. I smile and doze off into his arms.
