Lukey: Morning cutie, well its night for me still. I hope you slept well and are okay. I'm here all day/night as I don't have school tomorrow so talk to me whenever. X
That's what I woke up to on a cold, Tuesday morning, a day in which I particularly didn't want to take part in.
Over the past Month me and Luke have been talking constantly, finding out weird things about each other. I found out that he's in a band with his three best friends from Australia, called '5 Seconds of Summer' although they aren't famous that is their dream, to be able to play at Madison Square Garden. Luke has found out less things about me, but he does know that I cannot focus without a Starbucks coffee in the morning.
Lissy: Morning/night annoying penguin boy. I hope you had a great day at hell, wish me luck. X
I started get changed. I put my usual black skinny jeans on, a plain black tank top which was too big for me with a plaid shirt, and my bracelets. I went into my mirror to see my face, it was a weird purpley blue coloured and a bright red around my lip. I used concealer to cover up my eye and left it at that.
I went back to grab my phone before going downstairs, only then realising I had a message.
Lukey: I bid you good luck companion. If anyone hurts you I kill verbally destroy them through text. X
Lissy: I'd like to see that. X
I left get a Starbucks, the people there knowing my name and order before going to catch the bus, only giving myself two minutes. Everyone was staring at me, but I kept my head down ignoring all the glances, silently sipping my hot drink.
I got another message from Luke as I got on the bus.
Lukey: Shut up cutie. Anyway I was wondering if maybe you wanted to face time each other sometime, I don't mind if you don't want to? X
Lissy: I'm not cute, I'm punk rock. And yeah sure I'd love to face time so I can see your penguin onesie in full. X
Lukey: Of course you do, I'm hot *sassily throws hand in the air* x
I rolled my eyes and smiled at his text. He's made me happier than anyone I've known in a matter of days.
Lissy: I know this is weird but I first started talking to you at 11:11, coincidence? X
Lukey: I knew it was 11:11 in New York so I made a wish we'd be friends. X
Lukey: I didn't really, I suck at romantic things like that. X
I couldn't help smiling at his awkwardness. I sat on the bus watching the busy streets of New York go about their daily business; business men carrying brief cases; Women pushing strollers along; sellers setting up their stalls; all doing their own things.
I took a picture and posted it on Tumblr, it was blurry but had a great affect.
Millions of people, and I'm still lonely. - LissyStyles
I got another message from Luke.
Lukey: You're making me sad ): I wish I could be with you but I can't. X
Lissy: I wish I could be with you but Australia is so far away... x
Lukey: I'll use my penguin powers and you use giraffe powers to meet somewhere. X
I couldn't help but laugh a bit when I read his message. Big mistake.
"What you laughing at emo, aren't emos meant to be depressed?" A boy from the back of the bus shouted. I felt myself pale as he started walking the length of the bus towards me.
