"Luke! You've been there for longer then 30 minutes! How long could it possibly take for you to quaff your hair?"

"Ya know Le I would be a lot quicker of you weren't pestering me every 10 seconds."

My name is Aleiyah Peterson. I don't know why that donut calls me Le except for the fact that he's been calling me that since we were seven.

"Okay Le! I'm done! Happy now?" Luke said in his sarcastic tone that he has every. Single. Morning.

Today was a typical Saturday. Luke had to go to band rehearsal with the other guys. So he was wearing black skinny jeans, vans, and an All Time Low ripped shirt. Apparently thats the bands uniform except they're not all allowed to wear band shirts on the same day. I thought it was stupid but Luke said it was punk rock so whatever floats their boats right? He does know that they make other clothes right?

"I would be if I you let me go first"

"Jeeze Le I can never make you happy can I?"

"Nope" I said  making a pop noise on the P.

Luke chuckled.  God I love his laugh so much.

As I was walking into the bathroom to take my shower Luke stopped me.

"Wait. Le?" He asked

"Yes, Luke?"

"Frozen waffles or lucky charms?"

"Lucky charms except I only want the marshmallows." I said sounding like a picky little child.

"Ugh you make my life so difficult"

"I'm sure you'll get over it" I walked my way to the bathroom I almost closed the door when Luke called

"Oh and Le?"

"Yes Luke?"  This was getting irritating. I just want to take my fricking shower.

"I just wanted to say I love you." 

"Luke, I love you too but I really need to shower"

Luke laughed again and walked away.

Luke and I have been dating since 10th year when we lived in Australia. Before that we were best friends.

Luke moved in with his grandparents when he was five years old. His grandparents lived just a block down from my house and when I found out a kid my age moved into the neighborhood I sprinted all the way down to the boy I was so curious about.

I was so happy to meet a new kid that I could play with except when I first saw Luke, he was crying on the first step to the porch.

He wouldn't talk to me the first few weeks he lived near me but that never kept me from talking to him.

*FLASHBACK IN THIRD PERSON*

"Hey Luke?"  Aleiyah asked.

They were sitting in their tree house that Aleiyah's Dad made for them far in the woods.  Right in the middle of their two houses. That way, when they wanted to play they could meet half way there.

Luke looked over to Aleiyah without saying anything.

"Remember the first day you moved here"

Luke nodded.

"Why were you crying?"

Luke didn't reply. He just sat there staring in the distance. Aleiyah was about to just ask more questions because she knew Luke wouldn't answer. But then he did.

"My-my parents.." Luke started

"What about them? Hm?"

"Le I was crying because I moved far away from them. I knew I would never see them again." 

Aleiyah was impressed with Luke's voice. For a five year old he was very mature.

"Well what happened to your parents? Why can't you see then again?"

By this time Luke's eyes were watering and Aleiyah was afraid that if she said the wrong thing then Luke would stop talking to her again.

"Th-they-they died. In a car accident on the way to pick me up from a play date. Le its all my fault!"

Luke was already sobbing. Alieyah had no idea what to say so she just cried with Luke.

They stayed this way for a good ten minutes. Aleiyah knew it wasn't Luke's fault for his parents death but she didn't know how to let him know that.

Luke finally spoke up. "Sometimes I just want to be the king of the world. Ya know?"

"I know exactly what you mean"

"If I Had my own kingdom,  Things would go exactly how I want. Nobody would die without my permission and  everyone could live happily ever after."

"Luke, happily ever afters don't exist."

"Not yet Le, not yet." Luke got up and climbed onto the roof of the tree House and screamed at the top of his lungs "I'm the king of the world! And this is my kingdom!"

Aleiyah giggled at how unrealistic Luke was being but she just played along because it was nice seeing Luke happy and enthusiastic. "No Luke! This is Our kingdom."

Luke smiled happy that Aleiyah wanted to join him. "Fine Le, this is the kingdom. The most powerful kingdom of all. You can be the Queen if I get to be the king. Deal?"

"As long as the queen gets just as much power, if not more as the king does"  Aleiyah was a very stubborn, independent, girl.

"Yes whatever you say Le."

"Then deal"

Aleiyah started to climb back down from the roof when Luke spoke up.

"Wait. Le?"

"Yes, Luke?"

"Welcome to The kingdom"

(A/N) hey guys so yeah.. this is my fanfic. So i was in the shower thinking of what could happen to me if I had known Luke before he was famous and i made this whole scenario and before i realized i was like sobbing in the shower. SO this fanfic idea is very original and in all honesty pretty intense BUT I really suck at writing stories. I can write an essay much better then writing dialogue and detail so if anyone actually does read this fanfic then can you Please leave any constructive criticism or feed back. it will help me become a better writer and my story to become a better story and in return Ill dedicate a chapter to you. I'll read all of my comments and stuff. If you want to message me on either wattpad or twitter my twitter will be left at the end of this. and uh ya. Let the story begin!
