17.

" Luke don't worry she'll love you!"I tried to make him less nervous and calm him down while we drive in the taxi to my mums house.

"Yeah I hope so" he replied
About two hours later we pulled up to the house that all my mementoes were at.I remember playing in the yard with my friends.I also remember burying my goldfish "Petey" under the bushes in the front of the house.The house was a pale yellow colour with white trims and a brown squared roof.A fireplace was placed I'm the middle.I noticed that smoke was flowing out of it so their must've been a fire going.
Me and Luke payed the taxi driver and grabbed our bags and headed for the door. we knocked at least four times until a nerdy looking guy with glasses opened it.He looked surprised.Did I know him?

"Oh hello you must be molly!"He said happily shaking my hand
"I'm Tom Greene"he said smiling widely.After talking with that guy for a minute my brunette mother came behind him and hugged me.I gave her a questioning look.
"Hello kids come on in"She signalled her arms towards the entrance to the door."You must be Luke"She said happily.I looked over to Luke who was nervously shaking her hand."Im Anne"She smiled."You guys must be exhausted from the flight,Tom go show them they're rooms"She said
The Tom guy led us down the hall and up the stairs that creaked every other step."Luke here's your room"He pointed to the room I remember as my brothers.Well it used to be his until he joined the navy in Iraq."And sweetie this is yours" Tom said.I thanked and him and placed my bags down.
I plopped myself on the bed and looked at the ceiling.The glow in the dark stars were hanged on it from when I was scared being here alone in the dark.
"Tired?" A voice said
I looked up to see Luke smirking at me."Yeah a little you?" I asked
"I'm okay" he replied

I woke up later on and looked at the pink clock hanged on the wall.(5:36pm)It read. I must've fell asleep.
"Hello"A voice said
I stood on my elbows an looked up."Oh hi Luke, why are you in here ?"I asked
"Well not to be creepy but I came in here and watched you sleep so I wouldn't have to go out there and be awkward with your mom"He said blushing."Oh that's fine" I said smiling

I walked out of the bed and went down the hallway and saw my mom on the couch."Your awake!"She said. "Ya I fell asleep" I said while sitting on the couch"
Luke came along and sat down on the thee leather sofa.We watched tv for a little in silence until my mum decided to speak up.Of course.
"So Luke what part of Australia are you from?" she asked
"Sydney mainly" He said while looking at me.I smiled and Watched the tv while my mum fought him with questions.

"So how'd you and my daughter meet?" I heard her say.
"Well it's quite funny"he said chuckling."I was on my phone and I was walking back from my friends and I was walking down the side walk and she bumped into me and she fell and we just kinda went on from there I guess" he said laughing.
"That sounds wonderful,shes told me so much about you.I also have some pictures to show you"
Awe no not the pictures.My mum always has to show every friend or boy that used to come over the most embarrassing pictures of me.I absolutely hated them,While she found them adorable and funny. "Here Luke come here" she said signalling her hand to the picture frame. "Now this ones quite funny" she said giggling.

I heard Luke faintly laugh as he looked at the pictures.I felt my face turn about 1000• from the embarrassment that I'm now used to. "haha that's cute"He said pointing at me. I rolled my eyes and watched the screen.
