Ali's POV

" No! I am not going on another blind date!"

I exclaimed towards Chelsea. My best friend and roommate. Well, she's about to lose that spot if she keeps going like this.

" Come on! He's perfect for you!"

She exclaimed back raising her hands in the air emphasising her sentence. I knew it was a lie. It always was when it came to these things.

" Chelsea, last time you set me up I ended up walking barefooted back home. And along the way, I got drenched with puddle water."

" Puddle water?"

She asked raising her eyebrows at me hiding a smile.

" I don't know! All I know is that I'm not going on another one."

I said simply turning around and heading towards the kitchen.

" That was one time babe!"

Chelsea chased after me.

" You liked all the other ones! It's just the guys weren't exactly your type."

" Look Chelsea, love isn't meant to be found. It's meant to find you."

I quoted really weirdly, putting a hand on her shoulder.

" Oh my god you weirdo."

She laughed. Making me laugh with her.

" I'm serious though! I don't want it to be forced. It's just meant to happen. And I want to experience it that way."

I said grabbing a box of Oreos from a cupboard. It's been an obsession really.

" Your so cheesy, that only happens in movies."

She chuckled taking an Oreo as soon as I ripped the packet open.

It was true. I guess it did only happen in movies. But a girl can dream right?

" Well then, I'll think of my life as a movie then."

I shrugged taking an Oreo and taking a bite out of it. Chelsea just sighed.

" Alright, I give up."

She said putting her hands up.

" Yes!"

I exclaimed chuckling a tad.

" You missed out though."

She shrugged patting her hands on her jeans to take the crumbs off her fingers.

" Oh really?"

I laughed walking towards the fridge to grab a drink.

" Mm hmm! He's a hottie."

She chucked taking her phone out and starting to text someone.

" You're not tempting me Chels."

I breathed a laugh grabbing a bottle of water and walking back towards her.

" I'm not kidding, I think he's the best one I found for you. But no, you had to turn this one down."

She chuckled continuing to text. I fiddled with the cap of the bottle biting my lip slightly.

" Well, what's his name?"

I asked taking a sip if my water.

" Luke."

Luke?

Wait.

Luke.

I know that name from somewhere. I swear I do. It's like whenever I hear it I hear this voice in my head. Am I supposed to know a person named Luke?

I know no one named Luke, but how come whenever I hear it something in my mind clicks? Okay I'm over thinking this.

" He's a pretty good guy, but I'll cancel."

Chelsea sighed. Wait is that who's she's texting?

" Wait."

I said grabbing her wrist lightly, making her look up at me.

" You okay? You look like you've just seen Ryan Gosling naked."

Her comment made me laugh a bit, but I shook my head immediately.

" Don't cancel. I wanna meet him."

This Luke this has been going on for too long. I mean, I barely hear that name. But whenever I do, my mind gets filled with thoughts.

Maybe I just need to meet someone named Luke and maybe. Just maybe this Luke thing will go away.

I don't know how, but it will.

" Okay, how come you suddenly changed your mind?"

She asked raising an eyebrow at me. I never told her about this thing I've been experiencing recently. I felt like if I told her I'll sound weird, or insane.

But I guess I should just tell her, she'll understand. Right?

" I don't know, I guess I just did."

" You're lying."

" Maybe."

" Tell me!"

" I feel like I have a connection with the name Luke. Oh my gosh that sounded so weird."

I sighed digging my face in the palms of my hands.

" Yeah it did."

She lightly chuckled.

" How come?"

She asked sincerely.

" I don't know! That's what I've been trying to figure out. It's weird I know."

" I've heard a lot of weird things come out of people's mouths. That's barely anything Ali."

She smiled.

" So the dates on?"

I just nodded in response, smiling.

" Ooh! I'm excited for you babe, I'll text him now."

She smiled grabbing her phone and waking towards the living room. This obsession with this name is so weird.

I decided to follow Chelsea into the living room. That's when I heard her talking on the phone.

" Alright, so you're free tonight? Okay I'll tell her. Bye Luke!"

Luke.

************

" Luke come here!"

" No, you come here!"

" Baaaabe!"

" Alright alright!"

He chuckled waking over and crawling in between my legs kissing up my arm as he does and makes his way up to my neck and finally my lips.

************

What. The. Hell.
