Malea's POV

I slid the straightener over my hair one last time and then the comb over my newly straight hair that flowed over my back. I wore a tight black dress that hugged my curves tightly. Yesterday Mikey asked my out and I was just now getting ready.

I picked up my phone and as much as I hate to admit it, I was hoping to see Luke's name but nothing. I felt bad but I decided over time that it's probably for the best. He hasn't even glanced at me since our last incident.

I heard a knock at the door and glanced at myself once more, smiling. I finished strapping my heels as I called out that the door was open. I heard my front door open and close as I sat on my toilet cover in my bathroom. I heard foot steps approach my room and then enter.

I lifted my head to see Luke standing in the center of my room, staring at me. I froze in my tracks, expecting Michael. He stared at me in amazement. All the time Luke and I had been friends, I went with more of a tom boy look, but now I was growing into my body as a woman.

Things are different now: I have boobs. I crossed my arms over my chest irritably. "What do you want, Luke?" I asked impatiently. He shook his head quickly as if he was pulling himself out of a daze. "I wanted to apologize. I want to take you out. I miss you." He scratched the back of his neck as he made his statements.

I shook my head and walked out of my bathroom. "No Luke. You said what you said, the damage is done. I made a mistake and you handled it extremely irrationally. I don't like Ashton anymore, I'm just still recovering from my break up. I liked you Luke." I got more quiet the closer I got to the end of my statement.

"Liked?" His eyes softened at the end of my sentence. I shrugged in response, hugging my body now. He moved closer to me and tilted my chin up. His eyes looked at me, through me, and everywhere else yet stayed perfectly still. Before I could stop him, he pressed his lips against mine, moving his large hands to hold me close to him.

I left my arms by my side for about thirty seconds until I couldn't contain myself anymore. I love kissing Luke. It was so addicting, he always smelled so nice and the way he held me was the most comforting thing in the world. I tightened my fists in his curls as I widened my lips and allowed him to deeper the kiss.

He moved me back against the wall now and kissed me harder causing a small moan to escape my mouth. He kissed sweetly down my neck, inhaling my scent with every kiss. "My name. Say it." He spoke sternly, causing me to clench my suddenly hot thighs. I whimpered his name into his ear gently as his hands moved down to my ass, squeezing.

Suddenly, the sound of a car door interrupts my euphoria. I shove Luke off me quickly as a wave of guilt washes over me. I'm going out with Micheal and not only am I lying to him, but I'm all over Luke right before. I panicked and shoved Luke into my closet as Mikey opens my front door. He smirks, knowing exactly what I'm doing. I turn around to greet Mikey when Luke grabs my waist and pulls me close to him again, kissing me passionately one more time, tangling his other hand in my hair. Sparks erupted in my stomach as my core heated up at Luke's dominance. It was so attractive, I couldn't help it.

He pulled away and smacked my ass hard as I walked away which caused me to squeak. Mike peaked his head in my room with a look of concern. "Are you okay baby?" He asked worriedly. I smiled at his sweetness. "I'm okay. There was a bug, that's all." He nodded, now looking me up and down. I pulled down my now wrinkled dress and ran my brush through my hair once more. "You look absolutely breath taking, Malea." I smiled tenderly at my best friend. "Thank you Michael."

I took his bicep into my small hands as we walked down the stairs and out of the house. Mike opened my door for me as I slid into the passenger seat of his truck. "I have a surprise for you!" He said excitedly causing me to grin.

I laughed hard as we exited the Karaoke Joint. "That was the best date I have ever been on!" I exclaimed through my chuckles as he laughed with me and nodded. We had both had a few drinks, me a few more than Mike. "Are you okay to drive? I'm gonna call an Uber!" I said, sliding my phone out of his pocket.

He quickly removed it from my hands and shook his head at me. "I only had one drink and then I had water, I'm okay to drive." He guaranteed me as we approached his truck. He opened the door for me again as I slid in. We got McDonalds and went back to my house. I thought somberly about the boy who had been a consistent bright spot when everyone else turned on me.

We pulled into my driveway and he turned his car off. "Sleepover?" I asked him with puppy dog eyes. He gave me a 'sure' and we walked inside. We slid into my room and ate our french fries. I laid on my back and he laid next to me on his. I turned to lay on my side as I stared at Mikey. All 4 of him.

"Malea, I have to tell you something." He said, now turning to look at me. I sat up, feeling the conversation getting more serious and nodded for him to continue.

"Ever since you came into my life, I have felt like the luckiest man in the world. I've never had a best friend like this, like you. I know that I can come to you with absolutely anything and you are my number one supporter. I love you so much Malea. You are such a blessing." He said slowly, processing his words as they came out of his mouth.

My eyes watered as I nodded my speechless head. Idiot. I hugged Mikey and he held me tightly in his arms. I stared at the closet Luke hid in before as I took a deep inhale in Mike's chest.

I am a terrible person.
