Secrets

I'll meet you at midnight

Maddie's P.O.V-

I walk back to my room after dinner as I was told to by my mum. I get to my room and lay flat on my bed.

All I could do was think of Luke and how sweet, cuddly and hot he was. This is usually what I spent my days doing now.

"MADDIE!"

"Yeah mum?"

"Can we talk?" I frown a bit and get worried, she never wanted to talk. I walk downstairs and she glares. I sit down on the kitchen counter top and she walks over.

"What did you want to talk about?"

"You"

"What about me?"

"You're always out now. Who are you with?"

"I hang out with Luke okay"

"No it's not okay!" She yells and I sink. I knew she hated whenever I mentioned a boy's name.

"He's really sweet mum"

"I don't care, you're not allowed to see him without me meeting him first okay"

"Since when did you care?"

"Since I don't want kids running around my house! Got it?"

"I got it mum. I have to introduce him to you before I hang out with him again" I say and go back to my room where I text Luke.

1 message to Luke:

Hey Luke! I'm going to have to rearrange our date until 12 tonight... Can you throw a rock at my window when you're outside? An evening date is cuter plus I love being sneaky 😏

1 message from Luke:

Yeah that's fine! See you at midnight :-)

I close my phone and relax on my bed again. He had told me that we had a fun date so I was imaging all the possibilities. I was thinking of Luke again, it was impossible not to...

*********

I wake up at 11:49 which meant I had 11 minutes to get ready for my date.

"Shit" I quietly said and searched for an outfit. I simply went with a plain white dress with a pair of sandals.

Clunk

I look out my window and see Luke Hemmings staring back at me. He throws another rock making me jump. I open the window and smile. I slide out and he catches me.

I put my finger to his lips and take his hand with my spare one. I guide him off my garden without moving my hands until my house is no where to be seen.

"Okay, that was weird"

"Sorry, my mum is being stupid though"

"Why?"

"She won't let me see you until she meets you to make sure... You're not going to hurt me" I try to make my sound nice.

"That's sweet of her but I needed to see you" He grabs my waist and I giggle, biting my lip.

"Why do you think we are here at 12 then?" I wink and gently kiss his lips. As I pull off, he then guides me somewhere.

I watch as he looks directly in front and takes me over to the pier. I always used to come here when I was sad so it was nice to come her to make happy memories.

"Here we are" He sits on the edge with me and I grab his hand. He kisses my cheek and I give him a small smile while looking out to the sea.

"I love this place Luke, when I was a kid, no one knew what it was"

"I did. I'd come here everyday and watch you draw while looking at the ocean"

"You did?"

"I did. I had a crush on you since the day we met, well since you came into school'

"I'm not that pretty"

"No you're not"

"Thanks" I laugh.

"You're absolutely gorgeous" I hated cheesy things like that but when Luke did it, my whole insides turned to jelly.

After an hour or so of chatting, we both decide to call it a night as we were both pretty tired. He walked me back to my house and kisses my forehead.

"Goodnight beautiful" He whispers in my ear and I smirk.

"Goodnight Hemmings" I whisper back and he slowly walks off. I climb back up to my window and change into my scruffy clothes for bed.

I lay there without the lights on just thinking about Luke. He was the only thing that I had and for that I was so grateful.
