Ocean || luke hemmings

Indigo was about to scream out of excitement. There was only few hours left. In few hours she'll actually be on a date with non other than 'ocean eyed guy'. Is it really happening? It seemed like a dream. After her little fiasco, Indigo thought she'll never speak with that guy, ever again. But there she was, waiting for their date. 

They both agreed not to go to their 'secret place'. They were there together so many times, it's not that special anymore. And Luke wanted to make it special. As Indigos phone rang, she grabbed it as fast as she could, thinking it was Luke.

"Where are you?" Abigail voice broke Indigos bubble.

"Home?" Indigo answered questionably.

"We're waiting for you."

'Shit'. Indigo hit her forehead remembering she was supposed to go at Abigails for their movie night. 

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry."

"Hurry up."

"I can't come." Indigo said just seconds before Abigail hang up.

"What?!" Abigail asked disappointedly.

No one ever ditched their Monday movie night ritual.

"Luke's taking me out." Indigo said quietly.

Abigail screamingly repeated Indigos words to the rest of them. They all cheered out of happiness. They were a bit disappointed Indigo ditched the movie night, but on the other side they were all happy she was finally going out with Luke. 

...

"Dad I'm going out!" Indigo screamed so her father would be able to hear her when she got the message from Luke.

"Take care!" Her father screamed back.

Indigo was standing in front of cafe few minutes before the agreed time. She couldn't help herself. 

"You're fast."

Indigo jumped a little surprised by the voice. Luke hugged her from the back leaving the kiss on her cheek.

"Ready?"

With Indigos nod they started walking.

"At first I thought about amusement park, but it's too basic."

Indigo thought Luke was so cute all worrying and shaked up, but also sweet and caring.

"So we're going to buy an ice cream and then to the beach."

Indigo's mood changed a little. She felt a bit disappointed with Lukes words. She expected something more exciting and special after he said amusement park is too basic. They were on the beach yesterday. There's nothing special about it. But she didn't want Luke to see her disappointment.

"I have a surprise, by the way."

And when he said that, he wasn't joking. If someone told her she'd be running around with water gun on their first date, she wouldn't believe it. But there they were, running around with water guns and their stomachs full of ice cream.

"I can't." Indigo breathed out. 

Not long after Luke caught Indigo, both of them, still catching breath, were sitting on the ground, with sand all over them, watching the sunset. The sky was magical with all of the yellow and orange shades. The reflection in the water looked even more magical. No matter how much Indigo liked all blue shades of ocean, sometimes she wished she could watch the sunset all the time. It felt so nice and peaceful.

"Let's go in the water." Luke said out of nowhere.

Indigo looked at him a bit worried. 

"What? We're already wet."

Even if she didn't like the idea, Luke was right. They're all wet and dirty. 

Luke stood up and started walking. Indigo watched him 'jumping' into the water. 

"C'mon." Luke screamed after he pulled out.

Indigo, still not so sure, stood up and started walking. Her steps were so slow Luke thought she'll never reach the water. Finally, she was standing in front of him and he couldn't stop watching her beautiful face under the moonlight. Indigo watched few drops escaping Luke's hair and going down his cheeks. Her fingers connected to his cheeks wiping drops away. Her arms stayed on his face as Luke put his arm over hers. Her hand felt so small compared to his. But still, his touch felt so soft. The two of them were so close, only one movement could connect their lips. And Luke made the move. Luke's strong lips met Indigo's soft ones. In that moment everything disappeared. There was no ocean. No moonlight. No water. Just two of them. Luke's hands around her waist and hers around Luke's neck. Kiss felt so warm and welcoming. They enjoyed every single seconds of it. Indigo could taste the salt on Luke's lips. But she didn't mind. She didn't mind it at all. The salt was from ocean and that's what made it even special.

"You're something else Luke Hemmings." Indigo said when they moved apart...
