Third person POV *

Aimi sat nimbly playing with her fingers. Her hands smoothened down her lilac tennis skirt again for the twentieth time that night. Tonight Luke was bringing Aimi on a date. He told her to dress "casual but a little fancy" for their date and she tried her best to do so accordingly. But the nerves had gotten the best of her and she found herself palming the material of her dress every few seconds.

"It's going to have foundation marks if you keep touching it" Melissa cooed, grabbing Aimi's arms and putting them down by her side.

"I'm so nervous" Aimi groaned, putting her head in her hands. Melissa lifted her head up again, warning her about messing up her up her hair and make up.

"I don't care about my hair or make up I just want this feeling in my stomach to go away"

It was an empty wish because just as the words tumbled out her mouth, a quiet knock rang against the front door. Aimi's eyes widened in panic and she stood up straightening out her black babydoll dress, paired with one of Michael's denim jackets (that was really over sized on her).

"Hi, I'm here to pick up Aimi" Luke's nervous voice rang through the living room. Aimi walked to the door and told Melissa to leave, in a joking manner.

"You look pretty Aimi" Luke smiled. The usual pair of black skinny jeans adorned his legs. His hair was swooped to the side like it used to be and he was wearing a blink 182 shirt.

"You look pretty too" Aimi laughed at what she said. Luke rolled his eyes and latched his hand onto hers.

"Where are we going?" She asked. Luke wrapped one arm around her shoulder and the other rested on her waist as they walked out her driveway. He leaned in close to her ear and whispered..

"To the stars"

"You totally copied Titanic"

"It was worth a shot, Reynolds"

--------------------

Over the short period of time that Luke got to know Aimi, he learned that she preferred the little things. She was quite simplistic and minimalistic. She liked walking along the beach in the early hours of the morning. She liked being the little spoon, she liked orange juice before she went to bed a lot of little things like that. Luke picked up on them a lot, they amused him sometimes, made him feel content.

So it was obvious that he would pick something simple and minimalistic for their first date. That, he did. Luke brought Aimi to the local funfair. They didn't even go on any rides because Luke was scared of most of them and surprisingly, so was Aimi. Aimi wanted a teddy bear so Luke told her he'd win her a teddy bear if it was the last thing he did. And although Luke's aim is probably the worst anyone had ever witnessed, he somehow managed to knock all three tins over letting him pick the teddy.

"He's so fluffy" Aimi giggled, holding the rather large teddy bear close to her chest. Luke snorted.

"You're such a typical girl. Wanting the guy to get her a teddy bear by playing a tin game"

She laughed loudly, linking her arm in his.

"You're such a typical guy bringing a to a funfair on a first date"

He rolled his eyes.

"I won you a teddy bear shut up"

Aimi tenderly reached up and held his cheek. He smiled down at her a twinkle in his eye. She was everything he wanted, everything he needed and he couldn't have her. He couldn't have her and it pained every inch of his teenage heart. She leaned up and kissed his cheek gingerly. Luke's smile faded slowly into a small frown. He couldn't tell her now, not tonight.

"Are you coming to the party tomorrow?" She asked holding his two hands in hers. A smile returned to his face.

"Wouldn't miss it for the world" Luke mumbled, pressing his lips against hers. He felt her giggle against his mouth making him giggle too.

"I'm glad this happened" She mumbled motioning towards themselves. Luke nodded his head.

"Yeah I am too"

He couldn't tell her.

He couldn't tell her he was leaving in two days.
