Walking down the halls, I have my sunset curve ep, blaring in my ears. I get to my locker and open it, so I could fetch my lunch, before heading outside to meet up with Julie and Flynn.

I feel a tap on my shoulder, which causes me to turn around. I see nick standing behind me with a smile, so I remove my earphones and return the smile.

"Hey, what's up?" I ask him while I put my earphones into my back pocket.

"Nothing really, I just wanted to ask if you wanna be dance partners. Julie seemed on edge the other day, so I can tell she's not comfortable with me as a partner. I know that your partner got suspended yesterday so you're looking for a new one anyway."

"I would totally say yes, but Julie would be alone?" I furrow my eyebrows.

"Nope because luckily, your partner was friends with Flynn's partner, who is also suspended. So Flynn and Julie are gonna dance together." He explains which inevitably leaves me in a position where I can't say no to him.

"Yeah sure." I smile at him, and he grabs me and pulls me into a hug, which was rather unexpected. The thing that was even more unexpected was the fact that Luke was standing behind nick, with his arms crossed, and a pout on his face. After nick and I broke away from the hug, and he said goodbye, I tried to go over to Luke to explain, but he poofed out before I could talk.

The rest of the school day, was boring to say the least. I was also extremely worried about Luke, he might've gotten the wrong idea when he saw nick and I, which I can't exactly be mad about because it's understandable, but at the same time he should've let me explain.

When school got out, I asked Julie if I could tag along to hers, because I needed to see Luke, and she agreed. When we got to the house, I said hello to mr. Molina and Carlos before walking to the studio that they have in their back yard.

"Luke?" I call out as I enter. "Can you please just let me explain before you over dramatize what you saw."

"I don't over dramatize things." I hear from behind me.

"Yea you do." I turn to face him and he still has that angry pout on his face.

"Do you have a new boyfriend now?" He speaks.

"Yes and his name is Luke, now will you stop being so childish and give me love and attention." I make grabby hands at like, although I can't actually touch him. He walks past me and sits down on the couch.

"Go ask your new boyfriend to give you that."

"You're being serious right now? You're jealous of nick?"

"AHA so that's his name."

"Just because I said his name doesn't mean I'm interested in him."

"Well it certainly doesn't mean you hate him, I saw that hug."

"I hug everyone, besides he was the one who hugged me." I cross my arms and sit on the coffee table in front of him.

"Then what did he want?"

"He asked if we could be partners." Luke gives me a shocked face, "for our dance class, since my original partner got suspended and Julie didn't like dancing with him."

"Oh."

"Yeah oh. Maybe next time you should let me talk before you get all moody. Especially when it involves nick, the guy Julie's had a crush on for months."

"Okay so I was a little dramatic, you can't blame me, the guy has good hair."

"But you have even better hair." I reach my arm out and shove Luke's shoulder in a teasing way, and without actually realizing, my hand actually does touch his shoulder, and doesn't just go through it.

"How did you do that?" Luke looks at me with wide eyes.

"Do what?" I ask confused at his sudden mood change. Before he replies, he grabs me and pulls me into a hug, just like nick did this morning, but it was definitely more welcomed.

"Luke you're squishing me." I say to him. "You're squishing me." I say with more shock after realizing what was happening. I can touch Luke, and Luke can touch me. I instantly wrap my arms around his neck and hug him tight.

We hear a gasp from the studio door and see Reggie standing there.

"You guys can touch?" He asks with confusion clear in his voice.

"Apparently so." I state.

"I want a hug." He says before running straight for me, I open my arms wide, but as soon as Reggie reaches me, he goes straight through my body, leaving a cold chill throughout my insides.

I turn to face Reggie and see he has a disappointed face. "I just wanted a hug." He whimpers.

Luke walks up to him and hugs him tight.

"Someday, buddy." He whispers in his ear, loud enough for me to hear.

I smile at the two boys in front of me, and truest appreciate the people I have around me.
