Lucas Aires

Lucas was walking down the street to the coffee place on the corner to pick up a latte for his hungover fiancé.

"You didn't seem to enjoy yourself last night", his best friend Terrence said opening the door the the coffee house.

"That's because it wasn't fun", Lucas replied and wiped off the drop of water that fell onto his blonde Grant Gustin's styled hair. He went up to the counter and asked

"Can I get a Strawberry Spritzer with extra whipped cream please".

"Sorry sir we just ran out of whipped cream", the man behind the counter said with a half-pleasing smile.

Lucas looked at Terrence and sighed.

"You know she ain't going to be happy", he replied, Lucas rolled his eyes and put five dollars out on the counter.

"Just get it without", he said and didn't even look at him.

The man gave him back his change and receipt the served the next coustomer.

"What kind of Coffee shop in Fairview not have Whipped cream", Lucas ranted and sat near the big window pointing towards the Empire State Building.

"It wasn't fun?", Terrence asked sitting next to him.

"Are we still on this", he replied and looked at him sternly.

"Yes bro", he said a grabbed his shoulder," we've been friends for years but lately ever since you ask Jenny to marry you, you've been different it's like you are so busy with school you can't have fun anymore".

"Look", Lucas said," I just never though I would be 21 and have a fiancé okay".

"But your the one who proposed", Terrence asked.

Lucas looked at him for a while and then Terrence eyes got super wide.

"She asked you!!", He said almost yelling.

"Quite down", Lucas said and looked around," Yes she did, I was to nervous to say no I mean we've only been going out for a year and we rarely ever really connected".

"Dude, you gotta end it before she asks you to start planning the wedding okay", he said then was cut off by the man behind the counter.

"Strawberry Spritzer, for Lucas", he said and Lucas took the drink and started heading for his apartment.

When he opened the door he heard Jessica in the other room watching a movie.

He entered her room and she was crying while watching the Notebook, a bunch of tissues littered the floor.

"Jen, are you okay", he asked and handed her the Spritzer softly.

"Do I look okay Lucas", she said and snatched the strawberry mixture from his hand and started scoffing it down.

Lucas started backing off when she said," where's the whipped cream".

"They said they were out of it", he replied and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Okay, fair enough...." she said then looked around her,but then she scoffed, " um...where's my bagel".

"Your what", he said and turned back towards her.

"My bagel, my whole wheat toasted bagel with low-fat mango spread, where is it", she asked super ticked off.

"Look babe I'm not your servant or whatever", he said and looked horrified at her replied face.

"You think I'm ordering you around", she said her eyes tearing up even more, running down her puffy face," oh my god you do".

He sighed,"I don't mean it like that, look I'll get you the bagel, and some whipped cream okay", he said rubbed her leg from above the covers.
