"Can you believe they are starting preschool already, Pam?" Luke's mother gushed.

"Liz are you sure that she's ready? I mean Blake could wait another year." Blake's mother replied.

"Blake will be fine Pam. She has Luke and those two are already inseparable."

"Mommy! Luke dirtied my dress!"

"No I didn't! You dirtied my shoes!"

"Yeah, but you dirtied my dress first!"

"Well I didn't mean to!"

Liz sighed. "Kids." She walked over to the pouting children. "Now what happened?"

"Well I was spinning in circles like this," she started spinning in circles and abruptly stopped, "then Luke bumped into me and got dirt on my dress!" The small girl burst into tears.

"I said I was sorry!" Luke began to cry as well.

Liz laughed. "Ok kids, it's not the end of the world. Luke said sorry and I think I have an even prettier dress for you."

The little girl stopped crying and spread a magical smile upon her face. "Really?!"

"I bet you will look even prettier Bee." Luke said to her with a smile.

"Bee can we go already?" Luke whined.

"I'm trying to make this uniform look good Luke."

Coming from fifth grade, Blake wanted to make her grand new appearance as a grown up sixth grader and this uniform was not helping her in any way.

"Bee you look great, let's go."

Blake stomped her foot. "Luke you don't get it! I need to make a new impression so I can get friends."

"Why do you need new friends?"

"So I'm not alone forever, obviously." she rolled her eyes.

"You'll never be alone Bee. You have me."

Everyone at the party was either drunk or smoking. And Blake had failed to be either. Luke on the other hand didn't hesitate to get high with Calum Hood.

"So are you guys a thing?" Calum asked pointing to me and Luke.

I shook my head.

"Are you ok Blake?" Calum asked.

I nodded my head.

He nodded and took another hit from the elephant pipe. "How about you try it Blake?" He passed the elephant pipe and the lighter to me.

I took both in my hands, nervous, not because I was about to smoke weed for the first time, but because Luke was staring me down with his big blue eyes.

I lit it up and flew to the clouds.

"Bee your hogging all of it." Luke whined.

"One more hit Luke, Jesus Christ."

After he took a hit, he leaned back in his lounge chair and stared at me. "So I was thinking," another hit, "my mom is going out of town next week for three days so I have this wonderful house all to myself, and what kind of best friend would I be if I didn't share this tremendous about of freedom with my true best friend." he smiled a cheeky smile.

"Sounds good Hemmo. One problem, I have to go to this gala thing with my mom next week."

He rolled his eyes. "Ok. My mom is gone for three days. Did you miss that?"

"Don't roll your eyes at me Lucas. The gala is in London."

Luke groaned. "Fuck I hate your mom so much Bee."

"Yea so do I but I'm being forced. Luckily she isn't being completely unreasonable and she is permitting me to invite a friend."

He smirked. "I wonder who you'll pick."

"Yea I wonder."
