"No"

Lucas looks shocked, which makes me crack a grin.

"It's too soon! But yes, I will go out with you, but later. Ask me a few days after today, and I may or may not say yes," I say, winking at him and getting up from the lunch table.

I head towards my own, glancing back at Lucas, who had a grin splashed on his face.

"What was that all about?" I hear Riley ask in disbelief.

"Oh nothing. That was just the best moment of my life." I chuckle out, picking at my food.

And lord, it was one of the happiest moments of my life.

Lucas tried repeatedly in the next month, popping up with new and creative ideas about how to ask me out.

The whole school knew about it, and most of them pitched in new ideas for him to try.

It went from him picking me up, spinning me around and asking me out, to asking the marching band to play a love song for us.

It was like asking me out to prom- which, trust me, was years to come.

Lucas even went out of his way to put confetti in my locker and jump out from behind the closet, yelling, "I'm out of the closet for you!"

I laughed, kissed his nose, and skipped away.

Yes- skipped.

Now, the last day of school before summer vacation, I was so close to just asking him out myself.

Before I could bring myself to ask him, Lucas skidded -literally skidded across the floor on his knees-OW.

He was right underneath me. He lifted himself onto one knee, and caught his breath.

"Farkle, I've known you all this year and I just wanted you to know, I love you. Yes, I finally said it! I love you. Will you please go out with me?"

He asks, quite desperately if you ask me.

I grin at him, before brining my lips down to his and giving him a kiss.
A kiss that we were bound to remember forever.

"Was that a yes?" He asks cheekily, and I remember the first time he asked me.

I grin, "yes, of course it's a yes." Before I pull him back in for another kiss.
