At around 9:30 this morning Luke called to organise our.. date?.. outing?..bonding time? whatever it was.

We decided to go for a milkshake at the diner not to far away from the hotel the boys are at. We meet at 2:30, giving me 5 hours to decide what to wear and get ready, I call Kate for some advice 'Hey Kate, can I have some fashion ad..' before I even finish she knows what I'm going to say.

'I'll be over in 10!' she exclaims. Sure enough, she arrives at my house in exactly 10 minutes. She asks a lot of questions, like 'Where are you going' I answered all of them, but flinched when she asked who I was going with. 'OOOOHHH DOES EVEEEE HAVE A DATEEEE?!' oh no.

'No, Eve doesn't have a date, or at least she doesn't think so..' I answer

'So it might be a date?!' She's getting more intrigued

'Maybe, I don't think it is' I should really stop talking

'What is it then?' She's really determined isn't she?

'Bonding time?... an outing?' That doesn't sound lame at all

'Well is it with a boy?' Why does Kate ask so many damn questions?

'Yeah..' Oh hello butterflies, haven't seen you since last night.

'THEN IT'S A DATE' maybe it is a date?

I just laugh as Kate starts digging through my wardrobe. After half an hour of her looking she eventually pulls out a pair of black skinny jeans, and my Fall Out Boy band tee. 'Here wear this, with your white converse, I'll go and get us a drink shall I? while you change' I nod in agreement and she heads off downstairs. I quickly change, pulling the t-shirt over my head, pulling the jeans up my legs, buttoning them up just as Kate walks back in.

'Looking good, now time for hair and makeup' Great, makeup. I do like makeup, just black makeup though, Kate likes pink and blue sort of makeup, we're total opposites. 'Please just do black makeup Kate, please' I literally beg her for 10 minutes before she caves in and does black makeup. She straightens my hair, and back combs it, spraying it with hairspray before starting on my fringe, back combing that aswell, before pushing it down and organising it so it sweeps across my forehead, spraying that too.

All this time she hasn't let me look in the mirror once, covering it with a blanket so I couldn't even if I wanted to. She finished, covering my eyes with one hand, pulling the blanket off the mirror with the other 'TAAADAAAAA!' she practically shouts.

Wow... I actually look, good? She should do my makeup more often. ' Wow... I.. I love it.. how did you do this eye make up, you need to show me so I can do it more often' She then told me to watch any tutorial on youtube for 'Smokey Eyes eye shadow' and then just add my usual winged eyeliner on top of that. We both went downstairs and showed my mum, who was also very impressed with it, we grabbed a cookie and went back up to my room to have some girly time for an hour before I had to go meet Luke.

'Soooo who's this date actually with? you never told me before' My cheeks instantly flushing a shade of pink

'He must be special if you're going crimson just from me asking that' Shit. I still keep quiet.

'WHO IS THE DATE WITH EVE' damn, I forgot how loud she could be.

'Luke Hemmings' I quietly whisper.

'I'm sorry.. who?' Kate asks, again.

'Luke Hemmings' I say, a little louder. Loud enough for her to hear, and scream about.

A high pitch scream bellows from my room for the next 5 minutes, Kate has very good pair of lungs on her. 5 minutes following that sentences such was 'but what'

'when even'

'how did you'

'why did he'

'asdfghjkl' Sounded from her mouth, most of which didn't make sense. I was quiet glad when she had to go. 

A little under 5 minutes after Kate left to go home, I put my white converse on, said goodbye to my mother, and left for my meet with Luke at the diner. It was empty when I got there, which I was reasonably pleased about. I scanned the diner, Luke was already the and had chosen a table, he peered up and saw me, a smile spreading across his face. I walked over.

We both greeted each other and he pulled me into a hug. Damn, he smelt good. We pulled away and sat down. At first we made small talk, which then turned into a full blown convosation about music, and bands such as Nirvana, Blink182, Go radio, Good Charlotte and such like. Did you know he has the most amazing smile? Both of our faces lit up, as Always by Bon Jovi came on. 'I love this song!' I said, with a lot of excitement, too much excitement. 'Me tooooooo!' Luke said back. Singing along like idiots to it, all the way through, not caring who heard or seen.

When he says the words

you've been needing too hear

I'll wish I was him

Cause those words are mine

To say to you till the end of time

Yeah I'll love you.

We erupt into laughter by the end of it. I check the clock on the wall. Wow its 6pm already. 

We talk for another hour and a half. Smiling, laughing,  and me, falling in love even more with him.

-Luke's P.O.V-

'Me tooooooo!' I said back. Singing along like idiots to Bon Jovi, in the middle of an empty diner. This is the most fun I've had in ages with a girl.. most fun I've had with any girl since Chantelle. Fuck her, she's in the past.

When he says the words

you've been needing too hear

I'll wish I was him

Cause those words are mine

To say to you till the end of time

Yeah I'll love you.

The song finishes, both me and Eve burst out laughing. She has the most amazing laugh, meant in the best way possible. I didn't even notice what time it was, or care. Eve is an amazing girl, and I'm glad I asked her to the diner, to get her know her better. She's beautiful. Part of me is hoping that I'm starting to fall for her. Hoping that if I do she catches me. That she's falling for me too.
