We were in the car singing our lungs out to All the Small Things by Blink-182. It was one of our Favoriote bands that we've been listening to ever since our fourth year. Luke even took me to one of their concerts for my sixteenth birthday. It was such a great expierience. We screamed the songs at the top of our lungs.
The song finished and Luke turned down the volume of the album.
"Hey Le?"
"What do you want now Luke?" I asked jokingly.
"So..uh our five year anniversary is coming up."
"It is isn't it?" I almost forgot. Wow five years with this donut how did I manage to do that? Before Luke my longest relationship was for three days. It would have been longer if my boyfriend hadn't thought that Luke and I had a thing.
"Yeah.So uh anyway..I was wondering if you wanted to like uh-" He was fighting his words out and it was kind of funny in a cute way to see him struggle like this.
"Luke if you're trying to ask me out to a fancy dinner then I'd be happy to say yes." I giggled at the fact that we were already 20 years old and he was still struggling with asking out his girlfriend of five years.
"Okay good because I already made the reservations and I was afraid that you would say no."
"Why would you think I'd say no?" These were the times that I wished that Luke could be less insecure about himself. He is such a great person and yet he feels like he is never good enough.
"Aleiyah ever since we moved to America all these boys are staring at you even though I'm standing right next to you. I'm just afraid that one day you will realize that I am not good enough for you and you'll move on and love one of these American boys."
We moved to America as soon as we graduated high school. We had enough of Australia and we both just wanted new beginnings. My parents were prety upset when I told them Luke and I were moving to Los Angeles but they trusted us and I promised I would keep in touch with them too.
"Luke listen to me. I love you and only you. You were my childhood best friend and now you're my boyfriend of almost five years. There's nothing that could pull us apart. and plus I kind of have a thing for guys with Austtailian accents."
Luke stopped the car in front of Calum Hood's bachelor pad, where they do most of their band rehersals, and stayed in his seat.
"Do you really mean that?" Luke turned to me.
"Of course Luke."
"I love you." Luke said as he leaned forward to kiss me.
"Ew gross guys! Get a Fucking room." We both jumped back and saw Michael and Ashton standing right in front of our car.
"Alright guys thanks for that." Luke said to his bandmates. Michael then decided to flip both of us off. In which I returned the favor by reaching over to the drivers seat and beeping the horn. Ashton chuckled and walked away with Michael while I went inside and luke grabbed his guitar from the trunk.

After band rehersal we all decided to go out for pizza like we usually do.
"Do you want to tell her?" Calum asked Luke breaking the comfortable silence.
"Yeah sure." Luke said, nodding his head.
"What? tell me what?" Everyone stared at me.
"Okay well we got our first gig here" Luke said while chuckling.
"Oh my Gosh guys! Im so proud of you. Congratulations!" The band has honestly come so far and it's great to know I've been with them every step of the way. Well at least until they held auditions for a new vocalist and guitarist. I looked to see everyone talking about the set list and outfits. They were so excited. So happy. Although now, I wish it wasn't because of that first gig where it all went wrong.
