Illuminous || Luke Hemmings

Prologue

I remember sitting on the grass playing with my barbies when the moving truck came in. I was sitting on the grass with my brown pigtails draping over my shoulders.

I was 5 when Luke moved in, and I knew right away Luke was going to be my best buddy. He came out and ask if he could play with me, it was funny he wanted to play barbies.

"You want to play barbies with me?" I asked giggling. Luke looked confused "Why not?." He looked at the floor while he said that. "Nothing. No one ever wants to play with me or be friends"

"We can be friends."

I put down my barbies and stood up, "What's your name? Mine is Kaylie. I don't like my name, it's to plan and stupid." I pouted as I complained. " I like it, but I'm going to call you Kay" I never really thought of any other names people could call me, but I liked Kay. He had a huge grin plastered on his face " My name is Lucas

but we should have names just for us." He was looking at the floor thinking. "LUKE" I screech at the name . "You call me Kay and I'll call you Luke!" His face brightened as he looked up.

I new that this was going to be the start of an amazing friendship! "Ok! But pinky promise me that we our only allowed to call eachother that" I hold out my pinky and grasped his as we shake our hands up and down creating a promising bond.

His parents left him with his grandma and never came back; Luke said he knew they would but he had me so he was okay with it.

I would always be there for him no matter what happens.

It will always be Kaylie and Luke , Luke and Kaylie even his grandma Claire and My mom Tara knew that this friendship was one that would last.
