Fall For You

48

"Luke, how long have we been together?" I ask, lying on the couch.

We had went out earlier, and decided to come home a few short hours ago. And, indeed, Luke bought me a few things. I hate it when he buys me things. It always makes me feel like a money whore. I don't want that.

So, I have an idea. I just have to talk it over with Amy, and get feedback, first.

"Uhm, 1 year?" He asks, playing with my hair.

"If you subtract the recent argumentation, then it's a little over a year. About a year and 2 months." I roll over on my stomach. "And I love you."

Luke, sitting on the floor, turns his head so our faces are inches apart. "I love you, too." He plants a kiss on my lips, smiling.

"So, I am going to Amy's house later, and I was wondering if you would walk with me. Because, you know, we still don't have our cars back."

"Actually," Luke fishes around in his pocket before pulling out two sets of keys, "Mum gave them to me this morning before she left."

I take my keys and smile. "Really?"

"Yeah. She said that we've been progressing in school, so our punishment is over. Plus, I think she got annoyed with me asking her to drive me places all the time."

Luke and I both laugh.

"Well, I really needed these. I'm glad she gave them back." I flip myself so that now I'm sitting upright.

"Wait," Luke pulls himself off the floor and onto the sofa beside me. "You're just going to leave me? I thought what we had was real."

He makes a dramatic scene out of every conversation, it seems like.

"Luke, I'm sorry. I just, I think it's time we depart ways. But, don't worry, you'll find someone else." I place a hand on his cheek.

"The hell you saying? I was making a joke."

I laugh. "I know. And so was I." I kiss his cheek, "But I seriously need to go to Amy's."

"When?" Luke whines.

"I don't know. She hasn't messaged me back. Soon, I suppose." I check my phone.

"Can it wait until Mum gets home? I don't like being alone." Luke rests his head on my shoulder. "Or, I could just come with you."

"Uhm, I have an idea. Why don't I go get Dylan, and you guys can chill?" I suggest.

"Why can't I just hang with you girls?"

I raise my eyebrows, "Luke. Do you seriously want that?"

"No. But I don't want to be away from you. It hurts in here." Luke points to his chest, heart specifically.

"Awh," I rub his chest, "I'm sorry."

"So....can I come?" His face lights up as he asks.

"Luke, if you tag along, you'll have to stay with Dylan."

Luke lets out a long sight. "Fine. I guess I'll stay with Dylan."

"Great," I smile. "Lets go." I hurriedly run out the door, waiting in the car for Luke. After a few minutes, he shows.

"Sam.."

"Yes?" I ask, starting the engine.

"You're not going to cheat again, are you?"

I slowly back out, saying, "No. Amy and I have some planning to do."

"Planning for what?"

"Something. I can't say. It's a surprise."

Luke sighs and looks out the window.

The rest of the ride is silent.

I can't tell the surprise to him.

It's for him.
