3 weeks later...

I was with Lucas in the mall, when he looked at me. "Alex, can I tell you something?"

"Sure" I nodded.

"I've liked you since the first day, when I bumped you, I knew that I liked you... and I don't know if you feel the same, but I just can't keep it in my heart" he looked down.

"Normally, boys do that... but ok" I put my two fingers on his chin, and made him look at me. "Lucas, don't you ever feel nervous when you're telling a girl that you like her, and if you're scared.. just tell her, girls understand"

"Thanks, Alex..." Lucas hugged me. "You're an inspiring friend"

"No need, Luke! And to be honest, I've liked you too" I smiled.

"Do you still?" His eye filled with hope and sadness.

"I still like you"

"I know it's early, but will you be my girlfriend?"

Oh my god!

"Yes!"

I know we didn't get to go to a lot of dates, but you know every time we go out together, he says it's a date.. so it counts.

"Oh my lord! You don't know how happy I am" Lucas hugged me.

"I'm happier, Lukey poo"

"Lukey poo? Really?"

"Yeah" I laughed while nodding my head.

"Mom!" I opened the door, and ran to the kitchen. "Mommy!"

"Why are you so happy?" Mom furrowed her eyebrows.

"I have a ... boyfriend!" I jumped excitedly.

"Oh, really? What's his name?"

"Oh, you know him, mom! Lucas!"

"He's a good guy, I'm so happy for you, darling"

"Why are you so happy for Alex? What's up?" Caleb walked in.

"She has a boyfriend!" My mom grinned widely.

"WHAT?" His face turned red, I know that he's mad.

"Caleb, no need to get mad! You're sister has a boyfriend just like you with that girl, I forgot her name"

"Loren" Caleb glared at mom. "Who is your boyfriend? When can I meet him? Please tell me it's not Charlie, cause if it's Charlie, you're in big trouble!"

"No, he's not Charlie, Charlie is my friend.. you already met him" I shrugged.

"I already met him? Who? Which one?"

"Which one?" I laughed. "Anyways, Lucas"

"If he hurts you, ima gonna kill him"

"You can't kill an ant, you're going to kill a human?" I smirked.

"DAMN!" Matt walked in, laughing. "Can't help eavesdropping"

"What do you think of Alex having a boyfriend?" Caleb looked at Matt.

"I'm happy for you, little sis" Matt kissed my cheek.

"What? What if she gets hurt? We have to protect her, you dumb" Caleb gave Matt the 'are you serious' look.

"Man, we're not always going to protect her, she's strong enough! I trust her"

"It's not that, but what if she gets hurt? She's our little sister, you know"

"I'm still here, ya know" I smiled awkwardly.

"She will learn" Matt chuckled. "Anyways, I should be somewhere now, bye!"

"Bye" we all said.

"Mom, do you hate Ashton?" I asked mom, she looked up.

"Why all of a sudden?" Mom furrowed her eyebrows.

"Just asking"

"I haven't talked to him for a long long time, but I don't hate him"

"What about Luke?" I regret saying his name!

"Why are you asking me those questions?!" My mom yelled at me.

"Mom, I'm just asking!"

"I hate him! I hate him, ok?" She yelled again.

"EMMA! Don't yell at Alex!" Dad walked in with some food on his hands.

"She's asking me some weird questions"

"So what? Can't you talk to her quietly?"

"Dad, it's ok... it's my fault of saying his name"

"Who?"

"Luke..." I looked down.

"Luke as your mom's ex?"

"Yeah, I was just asking if she hates him.." tears filled my eyes.

"Let's go upstairs, Alex.." Caleb held my hand, dragging me out of the kitchen.

What just happened?

All of you, should just hate me...

I have reasons why am I not updating a lot!
