Boy Next Door | l.h [completed]

Chapter 4

"Emma, Emma. Wake up. Luke is here to see you" I heard a familiar voice speak right next to me.

My eyes fluttered open to see my moms head over mine. "Mom?" I stretched out on my bed. "Yeah, wake up. Luke is here. He said he wants to show you around" she stood up straight and walked out of the room.

"I'm awake already" I mumbled to myself. I lazily walked over to my door and shut it.

My eyes were still half open but I managed to get out a decent outfit from my drawer.

I picked out a white pair of skinny jeans and a purple crop top.

I probably looked like a zombie, walking to the bathroom.

I striped my pjs off and managed to slip on my outfit. I put some make-up on. Only mascara, eyeliner and lip gloss. I didn't do much with my hair. I only put it in a messy bun.

I ran back to my room and slipped on my black vans before exited my room with my phone. Thankfully, I didn't look like a zombie anymore.

"Hey" Luke smiled. "Ready?" he asked, licking his upper lip.

I nodded my head and headed out the door with him.

"I like your outfit" he broke the silence. "Thanks. Is it because of the crop? It shows my stomach" I asked. "No, I like the color purple. I'm not like those guys that just like a girl for their looks like Matt does"

I smiled at his comment. "Thanks"

"For what?" he asked.

"For not being like Matt" I answered.

"No problem. I just think girls deserve better"

I giggled at his remark. "What's so funny?" he asked.

"It's funny because no guy is like that. In surprised that one guy is like that" I stated.

"Oh" was all he said. We both chuckled and went on with the tour of Bridgewater.

"This is a really pretty place isn't it?" It sounded more like a question than a statement. "Yeah, it is" he looked up at the now cloudy sky.

"Looks like it's gonna rain" he said. I looked up as well and felt the drizzle of rain against my forehead and arms.

"I like the rain" he said. "Me too" I smiled.

"We should go back. If you want" he snapped his head to the ground. "Nah. Have you ever heard of dancing in the rain?" I felt a smirk etching on my face.

"Yeah. Just never done it"

The rain came harder this time, the streets and sidewalks getting clearer from people.

I pulled out my phone and clicked shuffle. Of course, What Makes You Beautiful came on.

I smirked. "You like this song?" he asked.

"Yeah!" I ran through the rain, my hair getting drenched. I started to skip too.

I looked back and found a stuck Luke. He wasn't really stuck, but he just didn't move a muscle. "C'Mon!" I screamed. I still had my phone with me. It was in my pocket so that it didn't get wet.

"I don't dance! I sing though!" he screamed. "Sing then" I got closer to him.

"Not here! You can't even here me that good! C'mon, you can come over my house and I can show you my talent" he laughed.

"Usually people are scared to show their talent" I giggled.

"I'm not. Let's go" he grabbed my wrist and we both ran to his house.

Once we got there, I slipped off my shoes. My hair was still drenched but not really dripping that much.

"Hold on" he disappeared out of the room and soon came back in with two towels. He handed me one and I quickly took it without any hesitation.

"Thanks" I mumbled. I leaned over one side and started to pat my hair dry.

After a little bit, I noticed that it wasn't really doing anything so I just put the towel up in my hair.

"Ok, now sing" he led me to the living room. I say down on the couch. Luke didn't follow me, he just stood in front of the tv.

"Ok, here's a song that I'm trying to work on. I'm only going to do my favorite part" he chuckled.

Then he started.

"Don't stop! Doing what you your doing! Cause every time you move to the beat, it gets harder for me and you know it, know it, know it.

Don't stop! Cause you know that I like, cause every time you walk in the room, you got all eyes on you and you know it, know it, know it"

He finished his part. "I loved it!" I shot up, of of the couch and launched towards Luke, giving him a huge, cold hug. It was cold because the rain was cold. The rain was on me.

"You liked it?" he smirked. "Yeah!" I pulled away from the hug. "It was great!" I squealed. "You sound just like Natalie"

"Eh" I smirked. "But seriously Luke, that was great. Where did you learn to sing like that?" I asked.

"I don't know, I started singing when I was 10" he smiled that perfect smile. Wait, what?
