☼ Gina's Point of View ☼

He was awake. Finally. I wiped my tears away quickly and covered up my wrists with my bracelets.

"Gina?" I heard the familiar voice ring through my ears.

"Yes Luke?" I asked as I stood up.

"Why are your eyes all red and puffy?" He asked as his smile slowly faded into a frown.

"I just woke up, sometimes I get like that." I was the worst liar, I swear. I knew he could tell I was lying, but he chose to ignore it for my well being.

"It's almost morning we'll only have one more day left. We have to make the most of it." He said ruffling his flat hair.

"Yeah, because we can't totally do so many things in a small coffee shop." I said with a hint of sarcasm in my voice.

"We could!" He whined.

"Yeah right." I said while giggling.

"We could!" He said again and pinned me up against the bookshelf.

"Sure we can." I said once more while rolling my eyes.

He got closer to me and everything just froze.

"I think we could do anything." He whispered, his breath tickling my neck. He leaned in closer and boom! The entire book shelf fell over.

I began laughing as hard as anyone could possibly laugh in the universe as his cheeks flushed red.

"Lu-" I laughed "Luke- do - do you realize what just happened?" I asked in between fits of my laughter.

"Yes." He laughed.

"Help me get this thing up, you lil nasty." I said laughing at him again.

I grunted really loudly as I tried to pick it up and I sadly fell over on my back.

Another laughing attack.

"Oh, fuck my life." I screamed while giggling.

He helped me up as I continued laughing.

"Luke seriously what are we going to do with the book shelf? My boss will literally kill me."

He bent over and picked it up like it was as light as a feather.

"What the heck? Are you Incredible Hulk or something?" I asked with a confused look on my face.

"No, you're just really weak."

"Take that back, Hemmings." I said while punching his arm.

"Wait, did you punch me? It felt like someone tapping me."

I rolled my eyes. "I swear, Lucas."

"I swear, Lucas." He said mimicking my voice, which by the way sounded nothing like me at all.

"I don't sound like that."

"Oh, but you do." He said while laughing.

We just stood there for a second. We didn't really do anything. Just kind of looked at eachother. I swear that second felt like years. Just looking into each other's eyes.

"Can I have this dance?" He asked suddenly, out of no where.

"Of course you can." I said while smiling.

Luke unlocked the door and dragged me outside.

"Lucas Hemmings! There's a huge storm and you want to dance outside in the middle of it?"

"Yes, m'lady."

I laughed at his choice of words.

"Okay." I said while giggling and putting on the stupidest smile in the world.

He grabbed ahold of my waist and pulled me closer to him.

We swayed around as I laid my head on his shoulder.

"I know we only met like a day ago, but it feels like I've known you for years." He said, while I pulled away.

"I know what you mean." I replied with a sad tone.

"Why do you seem so sad?"

"After this, we probably won't ever talk again. I probably won't see you because you'll be busy doing what your doing. You won't want some useless college girl that works at a coffee shop. You'll probably date some beautiful, skinny model who is much better than me. Who has absolutely no flaws and is basically perfect inside and out." I said as tear streamed down my face.

"Why would you think that? I really like you Gina, I really do. I want to spend more time with you like this. I- I think I might even love you."

I literally choked. I had only known this guy for a day. I had the same feeling about him, but how do I handle this? It's just too weird. I don't know what to say, but for some reason the words came out so naturally.

"I love you too, Luke."

Why did I say that. I didn't even want to admit it to myself, let alone say it out loud. As the words escaped my mouth, Luke's face lit up so much, that it could literally light up an entire city.

I smiled back as he leaned in. I put my hands around his neck and closed my eyes.

This is the kiss I have waited for, for so long.

The touch of his lips made me tingle with joy as I kissed back.
