<><><><><><><><><><>

{Next morning}

Waking up to the sound of my ringtone, I pick up my phone and slide it to unlock. Andrea's name pops up on the screen.

"Hey!" she says excitedly.

"Hi. Where were you last night? I couldn't find you anywhere." I say, remembering what happened last night.

Oh shit, Luke is still in my house!

"I was-" Andrea started explaining, but I cut her off.

"Hey I'll call you later, really gotta go." I excuse myself and hang up.

I jumped out of the bed and put my hair into a messy bun on top of my head and quickly put on a pair of sweatpants and pulled a t-shirt over my head.

I ran downstairs and found my parents sitting in the kitchen table, talking to Luke. He seems a little paranoid as he saw me coming downstairs.

"Mom, dad, I can explain." I start, breathing hard.

They both stare blankly at me, waiting for an explanation. Damn it. I should have thought of what I was going to say before I came down here. I try to organize my thoughts as I slowly take a seat.

After 10 minutes of explanation, I finally got them to understand my situation. They warned me not to do these kinds of things again and if I really needed to, I need their permission first. They made sure I was aware of how dangerous it would be if it was someone else in Luke's place, someone....dangerous. It was for my sake, they had said.

Seems to me that Luke and my parents had a good talk while I was sleeping. I hope he had a good impression on them and didn't make either of us look bad.

Thank god my dad got a call from work saying they'll need to get to work early today. I get up to get cereal for myself and Luke when they leave the kitchen.

*Luke's POV*

"Thanks for helping me again. I...I didn't know it would be such a big deal. I'm really sorry." I apologize when her parents leave the kitchen.

I only stayed for a night, 7 hours to be exact, but her parents made it sound like I was going to rape her or something. They wake up so early even on the weekends but I guess its due to their jobs.

"It's no problem. Not like you had anywhere else to go." she shrugs.

Yeah, about that. I could've stayed at Ashton's place if I wanted to, but I guess that idea never crossed her mind.

"So what are your plans for today?" I try to change the subject, feeling guilty.

The truth is, I just really miss her. I miss her hugs, her kisses, her laugh, her presence, the way her bright blue eyes light up every time I sing to her, I miss everything about her. But most of all, I miss her. So damn much. I just want to finally experience them all over again.

"I don't really have any plans yet, I usually spend my weekends hanging out with Andrea." Alexa says.

"Do you need me to drop you off at Ashton's for your car?" she asks, looking back at me.

"If that's okay with you."

Hell, I want to spend every second I can with her. I'd do anything to be beside her, even if its just for a day.

"Okay well, I'll go get dressed and be right back." she says, placing her cereal bowl in the sink and heading back upstairs. I look away when she disappears into her room, I didn't realize I was staring.

Their kitchen is pretty big compared to the one I ever had and have now. The living room is right in front of the kitchen, with two big grayish sofas, one red love seat, and a huge plasma TV. This room is a bit bigger than the kitchen and the guest room, of course. They have a few paintings up on the wall, they look pretty expensive if you ask me. The paintings suit the color of the living room.

I sound like some judge in a stupid TV show, judging a house. Damn, what has gotten into me?

I wonder how Alexa's room looks like. I wonder if she decorated it a different way from her last bedroom. I wonder if its a different color, I wonder if...

"I'm ready." I snap my head around to find Alexa dressed up casually, in a pair of shorts that reached her knees and a green tank top. I was lost deep in my thoughts that I didn't even realize I was up from my seat and was standing in the living room, admiring the paintings.

"Didn't mean to scare you." she giggles. That beautiful sound could make anyone's day.

"You got all your stuff?" she asks as she picks her keys up.

"I don't have any stuff, hah." I remind her.

"Oh right, yeah." she replies and we both walk towards the door.

I noticed this time she quickly ran to the drivers side. But to talk about last night, I don't know what came over me. I'm finally somewhat getting close to her again and I was about to ruin that small chance.

I was actually going to kiss her, but why didn't she turn away?

I remember how tempting her pink plumped lips looked. I couldn't resist it, but I had to. I don't want her to push me away again. This is harder than I thought it would be.

I turn on the radio once we get in & Sing by Ed Sheeran starts playing.

'It's late in the evening

Glass on the side

I've been sat with you

For most of the night

Ignoring everybody here

We wish they would disappear

So maybe we could get down now'

"Wait you listen to Ed Sheeran too?" I ask once I realized she was humming along to the song.

"Yeah, I mean he's amazing and very talented. You?" she smiles, looking at me.

"Yeah of course. Ed is such a big inspiration for me. Besides, who doesn't like him?" I reply.

"Inspiration? What do you do?" She questions.

Oh shit!

I cant tell her that! Not yet at least.

I start singing along to the song, avoiding her question. Pretending as if I didn't hear her say anything.

'I need you darling

Come on set the tone

If you feel you're falling

Won't you let me know'

"Hey, can I ask you something?" I finally get the courage to ask, trying to think of how she'll take this considering we barely even met.

Or so she thinks...

But what if she says no? Gaah.
