I sat there with an awed expression, I felt Luke grab my hand and drag me to the water.

"So what do you think?" He asked. I smiled, "I think it's amazing." He then got up and took off his shirt.

"Are you okay there Luke? It seems as though your clothes are coming off."

He laughed and removed his pants, "I'm fine, just relax." He started to walk to the water, he placed one foot in and wiggled his toes. He smiled and turned back to me, "Are you coming?"

I gulped and rapidly shook my head. I'm extremely self conscious of my body, so going with little to no clothes in front of people is not okay with me.

Luke poked out his lip in a pout, "Awe come onnnnn, the water feels amazing. And I'm here if you need any help."

"Just go ahead Luke, it's fine. I'll just watch." Luke sighed but obliged. He dived into the water, managed to splash me in the process.

I rose from my spot, not wanting to sit in the wetness.

Luke submerged from the water and started to get out, walking towards me. "Are you sure you don't want to come in?"

"Yes I'm sure," Luke turned around and started to walk away. I heard him quietly talking, "Too bad you're coming in," I didn't even realize what was happening until it was too late. Luke hoisted me up on his shoulder and ran towards the water, I screamed out protests but he wasn't having it. And before I knew it we were flying into the water.

I plugged my nose as we splashed into the water, I tossed around underwater, hating the feeling of wearing wet clothes. Finally I managed to get to the surface, finding Luke there laughing his äss off. That cheeky bastard.

"Oh my god Luke! You're so dead!" I swatted in the water attempting to get at him, but I could not win this war.

One day Hemmings. I will get my sweet revenge.

I huffed and raised my hands in surrender, "I give up, I'm too wet to do this."

Luke cocked an eyebrow, "Oh really now, well sorry for getting you all hot and bothered."

I let out an unattractive snort, "Nice one." We laughed, but my laugh was cut short when I started to shiver. The water was beginning to drop in temperature and being enclosed in drenched clothing doesn't help my case.

Luke seemed to notice my shivers and chattering teeth because he grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the water. He grabbed his clothes and handed them to me, "Here take these, I'll be fine without them." I hesitantly took them feeling extremely bad to leave Luke so exposed.

"Are you sure?" He nodded and turned away so I could change.

I glanced at Luke's clothes; he had a pair of black skinny jeans and a band shirt. Luckily Luke is pretty thin so his clothes won't be too big on me. Mostly because I'm pretty tall.

I quickly slip into his clothes, extremely surprised by how decently I fit his jeans. Damn that kid must wear tight jeans. "How the hëll do you manage to wear these things?"

Luke turned to me and laughed, "Hey, it's called being punk rock." I laughed and smiled.

Luke seemed to be cold because he was rubbing his hands together, trying to warm them up. I sighed and wrapped my hands around his, I blew out hot air onto his hands, he was surprised by this gesture, but excepted it nonetheless.

After about 5 more seconds of doing this I let go of his hands and wrapped my arm around him, "Let's get inside the car before you freeze to death." He mumbled a thank you and we walked back to my car and I climbed into the drivers seat, Luke clambered in beside me and I started the car. It roared to life, immediately enveloping us in a wave of warmth.

Luke and I grinned in satisfaction, relieved to be warm.

I quickly chucked my clothes in the backseat and I grabbed my phone, that I left in the car, and I saw messages from the band saying they checked out Luke's band on YouTube and they're really good. I texted them back and went to my music, I clicked on Jasey Rae by All Time Low and put down my phone.

Luke looked at me and smiled, "You like All Time Low?" I gave Luke a funny look.

"Who doesn't?" He smiled and we started the drive away from this secret paradise.

On our drive to drop Luke off and for me to go home, we sang along to songs on my phone. We shared jokes and even told some funny stories. But unfortunately it had to end. I parked my car in front of Luke's house and sighed. I hesitantly looked at him, knowing this will most likely be the last time we get to see each other.

"This has been one of the best nights I've had in a while. Thank you so much for this Luke, and I'll try and get your clothes back to you when I can. Whenever that'll be"

Luke made a confused face, "Why are you saying that like we aren't going to see each other again?"

I sighed, "Well I'm leaving for tour in a few days... So I won't be able to see you for a while."

He shrugged, "Well there's always the chance that your band likes my band. Then we can see each all the time. So for now let's just save goodbyes and instead say 'see ya'," this is one optimistic kid.

I nodded and smiled at him, "Okay Luke, See ya" he replied the same and walked into his house with one last wave.
