Luke stumbles over to where Calum and I are sitting. He stands still for a second, his eyes darting back and forth between Calum and me. He opens his mouth and finally says to me

"Who's THAT?"

"This is Calum" I say

"What are you doing with him?"

"That's really none of your business, Hemmings" I snap.

"Is that his hat?" Luke interrupts.

"Yes, actually. Why?" I say.

He doesn't answer but he comes up to me, leans over, snatches the hat off my head, tosses it to Calum, who catches it, confused. He then takes the beanie off his own head and pushes it onto mine.

"What the fuck?" I say, too shocked to take it off.

"That's better" He says, looking satisfied.

"No it fucking isn't!" I say "Luke come here right now"

I lead him away from Calum, not within earshot, but we can still be seen.

"Luke, you need to stop, I know your drunk af but we are over. We never even were anything really, you've cheated on me a billion times, you don't even like me"

"No, I love you. And you can't be with him because you need to be with me. I know I don't show that I love you, but it's because I'm scared, okay? Every time I want to tell you, I get too scared and go make out with some girl to avoid telling you. Thats the truth. My last girlfriend broke my heart. She broke my fucking heart, okay? And I love you too much and I don't want you to break my heart and I don't want to break yours. Because it hurts. A lot. That's why I'm doing this. I can only tell you I love you when I'm drunk"

"Luke.." I say, I'm absolutely shocked. Part of me believes him, but another part of me thinks this is complete bs he made up because no girl at the party wanted to hook up. I see tears glistening in his eyes, if he's faking it, well, he's good.

"You're drunk" I finally get out.

"Yes I am, I am drunk, the sky is blue, your eyes are green, I am in love with you, that guy is an asshole, are we stating facts?" He replies

"First of all, Calum is not an asshole, second of all, what I'm saying is that the only reason you're saying this is because you're drunk. You're not going to remember any of this tomorrow"

"The thing is I will remember this tomorrow, Hallie. I never forget how much I love you"

"If you wanted to be with me, Luke, you should have tried a long time ago before we got caught up in our screwed up relationship"

"I KNOW" He yells "I know.."

"Luke, I'm going now. You'll be okay, you don't love me"

I take off his beanie and put it in his hands but he refuses to take it, shoving it back into my hands the second it touches his fingers. Exasperated, I stop trying and throw it on the floor.

"Are you six, Hemmings?" I snap

"No, I love you"

"AHDJS LUKE" I yell, and run over to Calum.

"What was that?" Calum asks

"Luke being Luke, he's actually gone insane tonight."

Calum laughs nervously.

"Do you want to go back in the party?" He asks

"Not really, but my friend Julia is my ride" I reply.

"I can drive you" He says

"Seriously? that would be so great!" I say

"Sure" he grins and leads through the house, I see Michael and Julia dancing together, huh, who would've known those two would be together. I wave goodbye to them, pointing at Calum to show he's taking me home. Michael shouted "Oooh" while Julia winked at me. I shook my head furiously at them, but Calum just smirked. Wow.

He led me to the street where a navy Honda was parked. He walked around to the passenger seat and went to open it for me, forgetting it was locked. He blushed, then fumbled getting the car keys out of his pocket to open the door. When he finally unlocked it, he opened it for me, grinning shyly.

"A gentleman" I smirked at him and he winked.

He got in the drivers seat, and when he started the car, the Good Charlotte song "The Anthem" was playing. He quickly changed the station to one playing Today's Hits muttering sorry.

"No it's okay, I like that song" I say, over "Roar" by Katy Perry.

"Seriously?" he grinned and when I nodded he turned it back to the other station.

"Same!" He said "some of my favorites are All Time Low, Good Charlotte, Blink-182, Nirvana, and Green Day"

"Really? me too!" I say, excitedly, Michael had introduced me to all those bands a few years ago and I had loved them

We talked about music the whole drive, with me occasionally telling him directions to get to my house.

Once we pulled up in my driveway, he rushed over to open my door for me. He walked me to the door and stood there as I opened it.

"Well, I had a great time with you" I said, smiling.

"Yeah, me too" He said.

"Well-" I began but he interrupted.

"I know you're usually supposed to wait after you've gone on a date or two but.." He pressed his lips to mine and I kissed him back.

We pulled back and smiled at each other.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Hallie" He said, back pedaling to his car.

"Bye, Cal" I call.
