I want so badly for Ross to be by my side but I have to get through this. "Hey, what's up?" Luke asks me.
"Oh nothing, just at a park at the middle of the night." I say, calmly but hostile. "Why am I here, Luke."
He looks hurt. "Christina, I'm sorry for avoiding you all those years. I want to start over."
I avoid his convincing gaze. "Luke, you broke my heart. I can't trust you again. Besides, I have a boyfriend."
*Ross' POV*
'Boyfriend? I never asked her out.' I think to myself. I then realize that she's saying it to have Luke stay away.
"A boyfriend? C'mon Christina, we both know that you've been waiting for me." Luke says to her.
I check my mood bracelet, and see that it's black. If I'm right then black means that she's mad. Uh oh.
*Christina's POV*
I look Luke directly in the eyes and smile, making him uncomfortable. "Oh Luke, you must not know me as much as you think you do." I say, turning away.
"Christina, please wait-" Luke grabs onto my arm, pulling me back to him. He then immediately puts his lips to mine. A few years ago I woud've enjoyed this, but now I don't. My bracelet turns red, as I know what to do. I do not kiss him back, knowing that Ross is watching. I push Luke away from me and kick him hard in the private and slap him across the face.
As Luke cries in pain I say, "I warned you. Don't talk to me." I walk away and when I'm out of the park, I long for Ross. I then get a text message.
Ross: LOL.
Me: Hahah. Where are you?
I feel arms around my waist and I smile. "I'm behind you," he replies verbally to my text.
I look at the time and see that it's midnight. "You're gonna stay over tonight, it's too late for you to go anywhere else."
"Okay." He says.
When we get to my house, I make a bed for Ross on the couch. Then I head up to bed myself and lay there for a while not able to fall asleep. The door opens a bit as Ross slips in and I sit up. "You can't sleep either?" I ask.
"Nope," He replies sitting on my bed. I smile at him. "I'm proud of you Curly Cue, you stood up to your past tonight."
He leans in and I lean in as well, we find each other's lips and kiss for a few seconds. Then we break away and he climbs into bed with me, messing with my hair until I fall asleep in his arms.
