His Girl

Chapter Eight

Luke's POV:

So I was messaging Zelda last night, and she went to sleep. I took my chance and told her I love her at the very end. She hasn't seen my message yet, but I doubt she'd be awake yet. It's only 7:15am and it's a Saturday. She told me she'd face time me this morning so I'm waiting for that. I'm really nervous, I mean, I really like her and I'm afraid that she won't feel the same way back to me. Oh, here we go. She's face timing me. I click the answer button as soon as possible. "Hey!" I said, very unconfidently. "Hey, how's it going?" She said. "Good", I said, smiling as I stared at her. "How about you?" I asked. "I'm good, other than the fact that you staring at me is freaking me out a little haha." Oh. She realised that. "Oh sorry I-" I was interrupted. "I'm just kidding Luke" she said in a happy tone. "Oh, haha" I rubbed my hands on the back of my neck and then realised how obvious it was that I was seemingly blushing. I stopped immediately. In the top corner of the screen I could see that my face was going red. I made it less visible by leaning on my hand. "One second" Zelda said, pressing the home button on her phone causing the FaceTime call to pause. "Okay" I said, waiting. She came back and said to me, "Sorry, I have to go, my mum is calling me". "Okay, goodbye". The face time ended with three beeps. As I stared at the home screen of my phone I whispered sadly, "I love you". *Ping* I had a message.

9:15am
