(AN at end xx)

I receive a text just as I'm about to eat a bit of my new cereal. I pause and look at my phone.

L: Pack swimsuit and don't eat breakfast! COMFY CLOTHES.

I scowl at my bowl. Dammit.

I mean...will he know if I eat?

Probably not.

I eat the cereal slowly, feeling almost guilty for disobeying him. Almost.

I go upstairs and rake through my drawer for swimsuits. My swimsuits are all way too small and I only have two bikini's that I bought during my 'dark summer.' Hopefully I still have the one I borrowed from Ash for new year.

A long beep outside gives me a fright and Luke waves to me from the front seat.

"I am starving." I moan and slip into his car. I curse after touching the hot seatbelt and squirm in my seat. owch.

"Sorry. I promise there's a good reason." He says and I watch the neighbourhood pass out the window. We pull up about 5 minutes later outside a breakfast cafe.

"This is such a tourist place." I snort, but I secretly love it. He smirks at me.

"Well, we better just leave then-"

"Never mind, it's fine!" I say, hopping out the car before he drives off. He laughs loudly and gets out, slipping an arm round my waist. I lean into him, daydreaming about my pancakes already.

"Welcome. Table for you two darlings?" The waitress asks, everything about her screaming 'sweet, old american waitress.'

Such a tourist place. I resist the urge to roll my eyes as they usually hire people with mega accents. I smile at her.

"Yep. A great seat for this little cutie." I say and pinch Luke's cheek. He glares at me and I resist  laughing. She leads us to a table and hands us menus. I order a smooth orange juice and Luke asks for the same.

"What are you getting?" He asks, surveying the menu.

I decide to tease him. "Well, I was thinking a buttermilk super 5, maybe get them to add another 5! Then maybe asking for fries on the side along with two eggs, fried, and probably some sasuages.." I pause. He opens his mouth and I continue. "Maybe some bacon too and actually do you think they'll do some cereal? Some coffee would be fantastic too. And maybe some key lime pie to finish, y'know. Incase i'm not full."

He looks a little worried. "Are you sure?"

"Or just the pancakes." I say and he looks at me and realises i'm joking. He shakes his head, fighting a smile.

"What can I get y'all?" The waitress says and cracks her gum. I order the buttermilk pancakes and Luke orders the blueberry pancakes. I scrunch my face up.

"What?" He says, once she's gone.

"Blueberry." I say and make a puking face. He laughs.

"Wanna scrunch up your face again?" He says and I raise an eyebrow, enquiring without speaking. "It's very cute."

I blush. "Shut up."

He just smiles and the waitress reappears to give us our drinks. We talk about football through breakfast. The next game is the Panthers and then it's the championships for whoever wins.

"So your first game with a girlfriend. Are you gonna be able to handle my jealously at the cheerleaders when they swarm you after you win?"

"I would be honored to have you all jealous over me." He says and I smile.
