Fate (L.H.)

Chapter 3

*Luke's POV*

Finally school is out! Then after summer I only have one more year! I couldn't be any happier, except for the fact that when I go to college I don't know when I'll be able to see Jacquelyn. That kind of scares me to be honest. I'm used to seeing her beautiful face everyday, seeing her daydreaming during English. Earlier during school Michael asked who I liked, I wasn't going to come right out and say it because I knew they would tell her, and she doesn't like me, I'm just plain boring me. She could have anyone she wants.

Why would she pick me?

Sometimes I see her looking at me, but then she quickly looks away, I'd like to think she's looking at me, but I'm not sure. Maybe I should just ask Jerika is she knows if Jacquelyn likes me? Yeah maybe I will! I text Jerika saying, "Hey can I ask you a question about Jacquelyn?"

I anxiously waited for her to text back, finally I saw that she had opened the text and was now replying. Why am I so nervous right now? She finally texts back saying,

"Of course!"

"Do you know if she likes me?" I send, but rethink my question thinking that it's too blunt in a way. I locked my phone, now my leg bouncing up in down in nervousness. I need to calm the fuck down.

"Well, I'm not really supposed to say, but yes, she does. A lot actually, just don't tell her that I told you that because she'll kill me if she finds out!" Jerika texts me back, I look back at the text rereading it because I'm not sure if I'm imagining it or not, how could she like me?

Me for crying out loud!

I feel like I should do something about it. Ask her out for coffee, ask her to go to the movies with me, ask her to go on a walk by the beach? Why is this so hard?! Maybe I'll ask her tomorrow if I figure out what I'm going to do.

*Jacquelyn's POV*

I finally wake up and look over at my little clock/ alarm thing and it says 9:30 am. Not bad for staying up till 12:30-1. Well that's good for me at least! I sit in bed a little longer debating if I want to go back to sleep or not. Deciding against it, I get up and unplug my phone taking it downstairs with me. I saw a note on the table next to the couch saying that my mom and dad had gone out to breakfast and would be running some errands after. Sighing, I plop down on the sofa and try to wake up a little bit by looking at my phone and seeing I have a new message, from Luke. Hmmm. I open up the text and look at it about 4 times before realizing that it was really him that texted me that. The text said,

" Hi Jacquelyn, I was wondering if today you wanted to go out to lunch then go for a walk around the beach?"

I'm about to shit myself. WHAT IS HAPPENING? This is Luke Hemmings I'm talking about! My crush, my sunshine, just what?! I have to text Jerika! "BABE LUKE TEXTED ME ASKING IF TODAY I WANTED TO GO TO LUNCH THEN ON A WALK ON THE BEACH WITH HIM AFTER!" After sending I carefully answer Luke saying, "I would like that:)" Hopefully that doesn't seem desperate or anything weird. A few seconds later I get a text from Luke saying,

"Great! I'll pick you up at 12." He responds.

"Sounds good! See you then!" I text back getting up off of the couch to go and get dressed since it was 10 now. I was starting to wonder any Jerika hadn't texted back since I knew she was the text. After a few minutes of me rummaging through my closet I hear my front door open. I always forget she has a key to my house. She ran up the stairs and into my room then sitting on my bed. She looked a little out of breath, I figured she ran from her car into my house and up the stairs and into my room. I would be too. After a few seconds she goes to my drawer and pulls out a pair of my high waisted shorts, moved me out my closet and got out my Bluntly Does It T-shirt from Drop Dead. Even though I wasn't the skinniest person, I still loved high waisted shorts. She threw threw these clothes at me and I got out a pair of cute Victorias Secret underwear, with a matching bra and no-show socks.

"I knew you would need help with picking an outfit babe" she told me laughing slightly.

"You know me so well! Thank you!" I told her laughing.

I went into the bathroom, changed into the outfit Jerika picked out, brushed my teeth, put deodorant and my usual makeup on. I decided to put in my contacts and and not wear glasses. I wasn't sure how to do my hair, so Jerika told me to braid my bangs into my hair and to just above my ear and then pin it back. I did as I was told and I check my phone seeing as it was now 11:45, wow time went fast. I grabbed a white wristlet and we walked downstairs and I once again out on my black Vans. We talked for a few minutes about her and Calum and how they were going on a date tomorrow night and she wanted help. There was a knock on my front door, figuring it was Luke, I said bye to Jerika and told her Id text her later. I opened the front door, and Luke stood there with his signature black jeans, black Vans, and his Destroy Yourself See Who Gives A Fuck shirt, he looked amazing. All I can say is, I feel like this is going to be an amazing day.

--------------------

I decided not to write about the problems that she has until later in the story, so I'm sorry if you wanted that but it will come! It was weird for me writing in Luke's POV so sorry if it sounds weird or anything along those lines! Thank you for reading! Comment and vote if you would like! Love you!
