I dial Luke's number as I sprawl across the couch in the living room. I just got off of my shift and it's now about eight thirty at night. I close my eyes slightly as I wait for him to answer. Today's been a terrible day at work. So many people came in, and I messed up so many times it wasn't even funny. Luke picks up at the fourth ring.

"Hey, babe," Luke says happily. I smile slightly. He calls me babe all the time, but right now it's kinda all I need to make me happy.

"Hey, Lukey," I respond.

"What's up?"

"Can you come over? I had a bad day and I need my cuddle buddy with me."

"I'm on my way. Be there in ten." he says, hanging up seconds later.

I smiles slightly and rub my hands up and down my arms. Madison likes to keep the air conditioning as high as it will go and it really pisses me off, but I can't do anything about it. I get cold easily and usually end up in a blanket burrito when I'm in my room.

Just then, there's a knock on the door. I shoot up and jog over to the front door which I have no idea why I did. Madison was who knows where. I turn the knob and pull on the door. I tilt my head up at the teenage giant and smile as I take his hand in mine and lead him into the house and to the couch.

"Make yourself at home, Lukey," I say, "I'm gonna go get a blanket because it's fucking freezing." He chuckles and nods, laying down on the couch. He practically takes up the whole couch due to his inhumanly tall figure.

I walk down the hallway and up the stairs. I turn to the first door on the right and walk in; I walk over to my bed and grab a cover off of my bed before going out of the room, jogging down the stairs and walking back through the hallway before returning into the living room. I smile softly as I see Luke scooting a bit closer to the back of the couch.

Luke knew I was really short, so he sourced our cuddling to spooning most of the time. I didn't mind that at all. Most people that it was cute that he was six foot four inches and I was five foot three inches - yeah, that short. Some people even thought we were a couple. I blushed whenever people would say that because, yes, a part of me still does like Luke, but the other part is in love with Calum. Whenever people would say how cute a couple Luke and I were, he would say 'thanks.' And when they walked away, he would turn around to me with the slightest smile tugged onto his oh so kissable lips and say: 'it saves the embarrassment.'

I walk around the some what small couch and lay down next to Luke. I attempt to wrap the blanket around both of us, but fail miserably. Luke chuckles and takes the blanket from my grasp gently and successfully wrapping it around the both of us. I smile gratefully at him before securing my arms around his torso before nuzzling my face into his chest. I feel his arms being wrapped securely around my waist and I smile slightly when he places his head on top of mine.

"Do you want to talk about today?" he asks quietly.

"Not really, but I can if you want to hear about me charging an eight year old fifty dollars for an eight dollar bracelet," I reply, laughing slightly at that mistake. It was quite funny, her reaction. I feel Luke's chest vibrate and smile as he laughs.

"Hey," Luke speaks up after a couple of moments of silence.

"Hmm?" I mumble, cuddling closer to him in order to stay warm.

"Wanna bake a cake?" he asks. I look up at him and smile.

"Sure," I reply, my smile widening as he gets up and picks me up and throws me over my shoulder, making his way into the kitchen.
