"Maybe there are some parts of him you might be interested in?" Lucas suggests.
"No," I bluntly refuse and shake my head.
I can't...
Well, I might but I'm not going to admit that to Lucas or anybody.
The two of us were sitting at Bucky's for lunch when there is no beer but if you ask Daya, she can hit you up with some beer for lunch at Bucky's. I love French fries and so does he so we decided to take a little detour on our date to eat some fries. The perfect date always includes French fries! And yes, you heard that right - I was on a date and if you haven't noticed I am not on a date with Caleb. And if you saw this amazing creature sitting in front of me, you would agree that he was the better choice.
Was it weird that we were talking about Caleb on our date? Maybe, but he brought it up and it would be rude not to answer the man.
Lucas was from the same class Caleb and I shared together at Chicago U but unlike Caleb, he wasn't a jerk and player. His jawline was to die for and I kept wondering how on Earth I landed a date this beautiful specimen...just kidding I remember! We are taking a flashback people! Back to last Tuesday.
I was on my way to get lunch in the campus cafeteria whose food might be fattening but believe it or not college food is 100 times better than middle school food ever was. Anyway I walked into line and if you were thinking that it was the cliche story of me bumping into him and food being thrown on him and love at first sight in a college cafeteria, you are wrong. That is not what happened at all - it might've happened with Caleb but it didn't happen with Lucas. Lucas instead was a gentleman. I was in a rush to get food and immediately leave to head home and help the sisters in my sorority to host a Family Gathering. Somehow I was running around so much that I might've just skipped the whole line for Subway and ordered my bloody sub without realizing I had an angry mob behind me who were also very impatient for their lunch. That was why Lucas spoke up for me and made the angry crowd cool down - his words were that I had gone on a crazy fasting day that prevented me from eating for the last 48 hours and because my whole sorority was doing this to rise awareness to those who aren't as fortunate to eat like us everyday...which we are going to do two weeks from now - but somehow his words work and the whole cafeteria understood my mad run in and out. Me being me had to thank him because it's the normal thing to do and in response he told me that to thank him I should take him out on a date which brings us to now!
Basically, I owe him a date.
Great, you're all caught up now!
"Because this is our date yet the only person you seem to be talking about is neither of us," Lucas points out but he doesn't seem mad.
We just met a few days ago.
"He just drives me crazy and I'm sorry, you'e right this is our date and we should focus on us. In my defense, you asked about the men in my life and I answered, " I apologize.
This is our first date and I already ruined it by talking about that donkey ass! Lucas was a dream come true and in fairytale terms - Prince Charming and Caleb was Caleb. I really cannot wrap my mind around how a perfect guy was sitting right in front of me eating my favorite food but I wasn't focusing on him at all. What is Caleb doing to me? For all I know he could be a gangster and threaten people for money, and I'm letting a perfect man walk away.
"What about us? Do you want us to be a thing? I've been waiting for this date for a whole month and not to be creepy but I always take glances at you in class and I finally found a way to ask you even if you were in a rush to get food and leave," Lucas explains somehow. I sort of found it sweet.
