(A/N: Everytime my sister's bf comes, it takes me longer to type up a chapter because they always watch movies on my laptop. Today I was trying to convince my dad to buy me a car. I was so close until he said he wanted to go to sleep. Can we all just cross our fingers and hope he says yes? I really need a car to get to school. Anyway, thank you for reading and supporting me. This chapter is dedicated to my instagram followers because they are the ones who have supported me most. Without them, I think my story would still be at a miserable 500 reads. Thank you for making this possible, guys. God bless. xoxo)

“Why don’t you two go and have some fun for a while and we’ll take care of things here?” Kelly said with a wink. She looked at Luke and I with a smirk on her face.

“Are you sure?” I asked, unsure. I didn’t want to leave them alone, taking on the booth without me.

Luke’s warm hand found mine and I bit my lip as my friends watched him drag me away towards other booths. “We need to get as far away as possible before they change their minds.” Luke chuckled.

“What do you want to do?” I asked him when we had already walked to the other side of the parking structure.

“Lets go play a game!” He grinned, exposing his teeth. We both looked around to find the nearest booth with a game and hurried over to the first one we saw. There was a pretty long line and we stood there, waiting anxiously. It was one of those games where you throw darts at balloons so they can pop.

“Are you going to win a prize for me?” I asked him with a smile.

“Yeah,” He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind and kissed my neck. I raised my hands up towards his face and slapped his cheeks gently, muttering for him to stop. “I’m going to win something really nice for you.” He said into my ear.

We walked up the line, with Luke’s arms around my waist and one of the people attending the booth said, “Come on up. Just one dollar for six darts.” A familiar voice said to us and I looked towards him to see Skip and his soccer buddies there. Luke let go of me to grab a dollar from his pocket and handed it to Skip who took it from Luke’s hand and put it in a box with a small opening on the top. Then Skip handed Luke the darts roughly and had a look of annoyance on his face.

I looked over the shelves full of prizes and I instantly fell in love when I saw it. On the very top shelf was an acrylic pink Michael Kors watch that I felt like I needed to have. Before Luke threw the first dart, I tugged on the sleeve of his cheerleading uniform shirt to get his attention. He turned towards me and I said, “Luke, I need that watch. That pink Michael Kors watch. If you win that for me, I will love you forever.”

“You need to get a perfect score to win that watch. No one has gotten a perfect score yet.” Skip told us, with his arms crossed over his chest.

“Luke’s going to be the first.” I announced with a grin and kissed him on the cheek.

He grabbed the first dart and threw it. We heard a popping sound when it hit one of the balloons that were pinned to a board. He grabbed the next one and threw it towards the board, hitting a balloon with ease. The next two darts hit balloons easily and soon he was down to only two more. He grabbed the fifth dart and launched it. We all watched in awe as the dart travelled, as if in slow motion, towards the board full of small balloons. There were seconds of suspense and the soccer boys and I jumped up in joy as a balloon popped. We all cheered madly for Luke. Skip just stood by, watching everything, annoyed.

The last dart was next and suspense filled the air once more as we waited for Luke to throw the dart. I held my breath as the dart left his hand and headed towards the balloons.
