i'm sitting with ashton at my usual spot under the big shady oak tree. i sip on my strawberry smoothie as ashton chats about his dog. i look down as i concentrate on my textbook.

"hey," i hear a velvety smooth voice say.

i don't take it seriously. at this point, passing my math test is a lot more important than making friends.

it's not until ashton elbows me in the gut, i look up.

"what?" i grumble, glaring up.

i only see a tall figure. then, when i blink the sun out of my green eyes, i finally focus on the boy standing in front of me. he had blue eyes and messy blond hair.

then it hits me, luke fucking hemmings is standing in front of me.

"is this a bad time?" he asks, messing up his already messy hair even further. his cheeks are flushed pink from my rude greeting.

"no- no! what brings you here?" i ask, staring up at him.

the worst comes to mind and i almost think that he's discovered my secret. that he finally discovered that i'm his secret admirer.

"mr dun told me to tell you that he wants to see you after school. he mentioned something about tutoring." luke explains, twiddling his fingers awkwardly.

relief floods through my system and i realize that my secret's still safe.

"a-alright. thanks for, uh, telling me." i blush, fidgeting nervously.

"no problem," luke blushes even harder.

i get lost in his ocean blue eyes. he gets lost in my forest green ones. i'm in a trance for a moment; ashton could've dropped dead beside me and i honestly wouldn't notice.

"well, uh, bye." luke finally breaks eye contact and he walks away quickly with his hands stuffed in his pocket.

"did that just happen?" i ask breathily to ashton.

"it did. get ready, you're about to carry his babies," ashton replies, grinning widely.

"oh, shut up."
