"Luke, stop it!" I'm laughing as he tickles me on the couch while we watch Roman Holiday.

"It's your fault for picking a boring movie." he pouts.

"It's a classic and it's Audrey Hepburn!" I hit his chest.

He grips my hips and lays ontop of me. I can feel my heart beating faster. He is really gorgeous but I'm not supposed to think that.

"Dani... if I were to ask you to that stupid dance thing coming up, could you go with me?" he bit his lip.

"Are you asking me?" I sit up.

"Not if you say no." he looked nervous.

"Well then... fine." I gulp.

"Really?!" he grins and hugs me.

"Yeah." I nod.

"Does this mean I'm starting to wear you down?" he cockily smirks.

"Not even close." I roll my eyes and get up.

"Where are you going?" he whines.

"You're clingy you know that." I laugh as I go get my phone from upstairs.

I notice the house is quiet... I decide to text Luke to come to my room.

"What's wrong?!" he asked.

"Lay down with me?" I ask.

Luke crawls into bed with me and kisses the top of my head as I lay my head on his chest.

"You were right..." I sigh.

"About what?" he asks.

"You're wearing me down." I accept defeat.
