Maybe...?

CHAPTER 48

It's dark and only the lights of the street can iluminate the path that leads me to the house.

I'm thinking about Aiden.

Are we really going on a date tomorrow?
Has he really said that he likes me?
I... I can't believe it.
I hear my phone buzzing over and over again.

It's Lucas.

B: I'm seeing you through the window of my bedroom.
L: You're perv.
B: A pretty sexy perv.
L: Omg you're an egocentric.
B: Babe, don't get mad.
L: DON'T CALL ME BABE!!!!!
B: Whatever babe, come up and I'll show you the surprise.
L: And If I don't go up?!

Babe... What an awful word

B: It's cold outside for angelss to flyyyy

L: Don't quote Ed Sheeran to me.

B: C'mon, come up or...

L: Or what?

I roll my eyes, standing still, right in the porch.

Suddenly, I see him walking out of the house, wearing a black jacket and some blue jeans.
His blue eyes shine around this darkness.

"Hi babe." I say ironically.

"Shhh and come here." he takes my arm, leading me inside the house.

I follow him as we go walking up the stairs, directly to my bedroom.

"Are you too little to sleep on your own BABE?" I laugh as we walk in my room.

He doesn't reply, and all he does is to switch on the light.

And suddenly all my bedroom is full of tiny stars surrounding the big ceiling.
But that's not all.
My room doesn't look like a princess one anymore.
It has posters of my favourite groups of music like Twenty One Pilots and yeah, Adele.

He listened to me, and filled my bedroom with my favourite things.
Not all is pink.
It's blue, it's my blue.
I can't stop staring at every single thing.

I observe that Lucas is standing in the middle, in front of me.

"Welcome to your new painted room."

I mumble.

He's smiling, that cute smile.

"You told me you wanted to paint your room... But yeah, I'm Lucas, I've done more than just paint." he winks at me.

I... I just can't hold this anymore.

I run toward him, and without thinking it twice, I hug him.
I hug him because he has done too many things for me, for my happiness.

And maybe he doesn't like me.
But I like him, I know it, and that's all that matters for me right now.

"It's amazing." I feel him hugging me tight. "Thank you"

"It was a pleasure." His voice is relaxed.

After a few seconds more, I stop hugging him, a little ashamed.

"I wasn't intending to hug you..." 

Our eyes are shining.

He laughs.

"Oh, c'mon, you was wishing for this moment to come, don't lie to me." 

Why is he so DUEFHUIESFHUERIHFUERIFBUEJBF?¿?¡¡¡¡

He stresses me out.

"Keep being so fucking self-centred." I say ironically.

He lifts one of his eyebrows.

"I'm the sexiest self-centred person you'll ever meet so, I would take advantage of every moment you pass with me." 

"You're not sexy." I tell him rolling my eyes.

"Ouch Lea, two lies in the same day, you're such a savage." he smirks.

"You know what? Fuck off." I say as I turn myself back.

I want to get out of the room, but he detains me.

"Really? You're going to leave me here after doing all this for you?"

He doesn't seem mad... I think.

"I already told you thanks." I say with a clipped voice.

"I didn't hear you well." 

"Don't dare to joke with me." 

We're still back to back.

He suddenly takes my hand.

"What are you doing?" I ask puzzled, turning around.

"I was just wondering If you're this cold outside as you're inside." 

His hand is warm.

And he doesn't leave mine.

"I know my hand is beautiful, but, you can stop holding it." I frown.

"Your hand is not beautiful." he says serious.

"Oh, thanks."

"Your smile is." he gazes at me.

WHAT.

THE.

FUCK.

"But it's a sin that you don't show it as often as I would like to see it." 

BRAIN: What a rude boy, oh my gosh.

HEART: He's just said that he likes my smile... 

He lifts my chin softly with his bare finger.

"And If you can't find a reason to smile, don't worry, I'll give it to you."

Our faces only inches far away.

And slowly, my heart starts to beat faster and faster.

Our lips, are they going to touch each other?

BRAIN: STOP, LEAVE THE ROOM RIGHT NOW.

HEART: IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

As I close my eyes, and his hand leads me to him, I feel the stars shining for us.

Abruptly, they are here.

"What are you two doing?¡" Richard yells.

We separate inmediately.

And I swallow harshly.

We were going to kiss.

What is happening to me?

I-I have a date with Aiden tomorrow... I should be excited.

Why was I more excited to kiss Lucas?
