daydream

She looked over to Calum who was staying out of the conversation. He was poking his food.

She reached under the table to grab his hand. Once she located his hand she gave it a reassuring squeeze. He squeezed it back and smiled to himself.

When lunch was over he escorted her back to her locker and then to their next class.

She couldn't help but like him already, He was such a gentleman.

They went to their assigned seats which were on complete opposite sides of the room.

For some reason her classes went fast for the rest of the day. Soon enough she was starting to walk home. She mentally slapped herself for not driving today until and cherry red jeep pulled up beside the side walk where she was walking. The person rolled their window down and she quickly identified Luke.

"Hey," He said coolly.

"What?" She scoffed.

"I was going to see if you wanted a ride but apparently not," He rolled his eyes.

"I'll take the offer if it's still up," She raised her eyebrow at his kind offer.

"Get in," He demanded lightly.

"Where to?" He asked when she finally got in.

"Somewhere warm," She said without a hint of sarcasm behind her tone.

"I might know a place," He said and began to drive.

They pulled up into the driveway of a big white house. Whoever lived there must be treated like a fucking king.

He walked into the house first, She followed, She was taken back by how fancy in was inside. It looked spotless.

"Who's house is this?" She whispered.

"Mine," He replied.

She nodded and he walked into a different room, She followed behind him silently.

He grabbed a apple from a bowl on the counter then he walked up the spiral staircase.

He opened one of the doors at the top of the staircase. It was a blue room with white curtains and white sheets. There were band posters on the wall. Typical Luke, her conscious said.

"Why did you bring me here?" She asked softly.

He shrugged, "You'll find out."

She heard the front door slam down stairs.

"Luke!" Someone yelled.

"Up here," He replied.

"Luk-" A girl said, She looked at Kaylynn with confusion.

"Whos that?" The girl scoffed.

"Kate," He shrugged.

"Arent you going to kick her out," the girl hinted.

"No," He stated.

"We had plans," The girl said, obviously annoyed.

"So what?" He sighed.

"So, I thought you would go through with them," She growled.

"Oh well, get out," He ordered.

"Fuck you we're over," the girl said though gritted teeth.

"We were never on," He yelled as she stormed out of the house.

Now it was just Kate and Luke again.

"Who was that?" She asked.

"Willow," He answered.

"Girlfriend?"

"No."

She was still confused as to what she was to him but she asked no further questions, She just nodded.

"Friends with benefits," He answered the question on her mind.

"How did you know I was thinking that?" She raised her eyebrow.

"Its not my first rodeo," He shrugged.

"What are we going to do?" She asked curiously.

"Whatever you're up for," He replied calmly.

"I'm a virgin, Luke," She said nervously.

"Theres more than one way we can go about it," He explained.

"Why me out of everyone you could do it with?" She asked, "I'm just a freak."

"You're not a freak, but you are pretty," His eyes met hers.

"Your just saying that," She whispered.

"I'm not," He whispered, caressing her face with his forefinger.

He leaned in to kiss her but she backed away.

"Kate," He warned.

"I haven't had my first kiss yet," She admitted.

"Who said I was going to kiss you."

"Yo-" She started.

"No I didn't," He refreshed her.

He began to lean in again and he attached his lips to her neck.

He began to kiss her jaw line and her cheek. He stopped at her lips.

"Can I?"

She took a second to think before she nodded.

He pressed his lips to hers gently and she kissed him back.

He pulled away and looked her in the eyes as if he was asking if she liked it.

She smiled softly at him but his face remained neutral.

"I'll take you home," He offered.

She shook her head, "I'll walk."
