Reality Ruined My Life ((on hold))

Dinner Date

"I'm Calum. Don't worry, I'm not the person you're waiting for. A friend of mine asked me to give you this." he stated and held his hand out with a piece of paper in it. I'm guessing its another note then, great.

"Oh, okay. Thank you." I give him a small smile and take the note from him.

I unfolded the paper after he walked away and it read:

'Alexa,

I'm sorry, couldn't make it. Forgot I had something really important to do. Really sorry. But dinner? Tonight? At 8? Be ready, I'll pick you up! ☺"

Okay, so this was more of a command than a question. But wait, how would he know where I live? All this is creeping me out.

I walked towards my car, unlocked it and put the key in the ignition. I'm not sure if I should go. I mean first off, I don't know him at all. And second, I've never even seen him.

I drove myself home and grabbed a snack before going upstairs into my room. I'm planning to go over to Andrea's house later today to get the project over with.

I checked my phone so see if I got any text messages or missed calls and surely, I did.

It was an unknown number, but for some reason I had a feeling it's the guy that sent me those notes. And I was right...

The message read:

'Please be ready by 8, I swear I'm not actually this creepy.'

This made me chuckle, but no I can't. I have to get this project over with, it's due tomorrow! Andrea couldn't come over after school because she made plans with Michael, but she said she'll text me when to go over. Somehow, I saw that coming.

After spending two whole hours on twitter and listening to music, Andrea finally texted me to go over whenever I'm ready. I need a life, seriously.

I was getting ready to go when I heard a knock at the door. My parents weren't home, they're never actually around. They own a restaurant and work all day in it too.

I opened the door, keeping the chain lock still on. A guy was standing outside, he was....he was the guy who was sitting to my left in English class.

Why would he come to my house? How does he even know where I live?

He was wearing a white button-up shirt along with black skinny jeans and black vans. His hair was in a quiff.

"Hello, I'm Luke." he said, staring into my eyes. His blue eyes were stunning.

"I'm...I'm...uh...." I stuttered. He's gorgeous, he's really handsome. His lip piercing made him look ten times more attractive. I couldn't really see his face in class before, he was always looking towards the front of the class. And I didn't pay attention to anyone in class either because I kept thinking who could've sent me those notes.

"You're Alexa?" he said, trying to remind me of my name.

"Uhm, yeah that." I'm like in loss of words, I don't know what to say. I've never seen anyone that made me feel like this, in loss of words, stuttering.

"So are you gonna open the chain lock so I can get in or...?" he questioned, motioning to the door between us, which made me come back into reality and realize what was going on in front of me.

"Oh, right." I said, opening the door all the way.

"So are you ready?" he asked me once he was inside.

"Uhm, I don't know... I was planning to go over to Andrea's place to get some school work done, but..."

"Please? I promise you a good time. And by the way, tomorrow is Saturday" he chuckled.

"Oh, oops. Ha-ha." I replied.

I really want to go with him though, but can I trust him?

"So is that a yes?" he asked with hopeful eyes.

"Uhm, I guess. Sure." I gave in and he smiled.

"You can sit here while I go change." I said, pointing to the couch right behind him.

With that, I quickly ran upstairs and tried to decide what to wear.

After scrambling through my closet, I picked out a black cold-shoulder lace top and light-wash skinny jeans with the ankle strap sandals I wore earlier today.

I quickly brushed a comb through my wavy hair and applied some mascara and lip-gloss as usual.

"Finally. I was starting to think you had changed your mind." Luke stated once I was finally done and came back downstairs.

"And wow--you look....alluring!" he added, looking at me from my head to toe.

"Thanks," I chuckled and looked down at my feet so he couldn't see me blushing.

I left a note for my parents in case they get back before I do and he led me to his car.

He opened the door to the passenger seat for me like a gentlemen and slipped into the drivers seat.

"So where are we going?" I asked him once he started the car.

"Well first I'm taking you out for dinner, and then I'm taking you somewhere else." he said.

"And where exactly is this 'somewhere else' place?" I asked. I don't know him at all, I need to know where he's taking me. Its bad enough I already fell for his looks, but that's not what matters though. What matters is his personality, and I'm hoping he has a good one.

"It's a surprise, you'll see. I'm sure you'll love it though." he smirked.

Wait, what? He wouldn't...I doubt that's even what he meant, he has to be kidding.
