Luke...Luke Hemmings. The name fit him well. The longer I looked at him, the more I was glad I stayed behind. He was tall, and when I say tall, I mean tall. I was usually the tallest one in my friend group, so finding a tall guy was usually a challenge. This made Luke especially attractive. Not only was he tall, but he had these gorgeous blue eyes and quiffed blond hair that had a total model look to it. It was styled, but not in a try hard full of himself kind of way. It was more of a yeah I put some time into doing my hair so I didn't look like a disheveled homeless man.
I don't know how long I had been staring at him, but it was long enough for him to kind of turn his head to the side with a bit of a weird expression on his face.
"Oh! Yeah Luke, nice to meet you..what do you say we do to pass the time?"
"Well seeing as how my friends ditched me with your friends, I say we ditch this club and find somewhere less sweaty and gross."
So he wasn't into the club scene..I appreciate that. It seems like every guy nowadays is only into partying and drinking. I thought for awhile before speaking again. I was never very good at talking to guys I had a particular interest in, and I could already tell I was interested in Luke. If I had no liking at all in a guy, I could go on all day, but as soon as someone came along like Luke, I shriveled into a shy little ball of girl. This time would be different I thought to myself. I was going to put away that shy, protected Elle and bring out the outgoing and fun side.
Then it came to me. We would go to the Tower Bridge. Of course, I had always wanted to go to the bridge at night, and by going there I would seem adventurous.
"Alright, how about we go to Tower Bridge? Sound good love?"
Luke was quick to respond positively seeing as how he wanted to get as far away from this club as possible.
We found an Uber driver and made our way to the bridge. The traffic was quite heavy, so there was plenty of time for small talk. This is where it could get awkward, but I was determined to not let it get that way.
"Elle...Elle...um Elle?"
I hadn't realized how long I had been thinking of conversaton topics until Luke pulled me out of my daze. Way to go Elle now he probably thinks you are a mute.
"Oh yeah hi sorry I was just um thinking about my friends. I hope they are okay."
"Yeah well Michael has only been to jail a few times and Ashton only has one restraining order, but Calum is clean, so they should be fine.."
'"WHAT..TURN THIS CAR AROUND TURN IT TURN ARO.."
"Woah babe calm down I was kidding..it was a joke."
And then I hit him in the shoulder..hard.
"Wow for a girl you can hit pretty hard. I'm impressed."
"For a girl? Well keep making comments like that and there will be more where that came from."
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry Elle. Let's start over. I'm Luke. Tell me about yourself.."
