Me and Luke had been friends for two years now and I had developed a crush on him. It was typical that I got a crush on him, and ironic that I got it at the same time as Selena did. Me and Selena had been neutral meaning not best friends but not enemies. In fact it was kind of hard to make enemies on this island. The whole neutral thing with Selena completely changed one late fall day.
It was about six days till my birthday and I was just going to go outside to tend to my farm work when I heard a knock. Of course at this point I had to become to the surprise of the random knocks by now, but who I saw at the other side almost made me jump. I attempted to keep my cool knowing that if I offended her I would be in serious trouble. "Hey what's up?", I asked. She smiled. "Hey I was hoping to get your opinion on something.", she said looking a little bit nervous. I took a deep breath and replied, "What is it?" She looked up and stated, "I have a crush on Luke." It felt like I had been crushed. Littererly. Of course I couldn't keep up with her she was beautiful. I was just a farm girl. What hit me harder was what she asked me next, "Should I go for it?" I was speechless. I wanted to tell her no, but what good would it do? She just wouldn't like me anymore. The only solution was to say my opinion. "I don't know...", I quietly mumbled. She looked stunned before giving me a glare. "I get it. You like him too. Whatever farm girl.", she hissed. I winced and waved. She stormed off and I crumbled heading out to tend to my farm. Maybe I had a chance? Probably not though….
The next morning I sat on my bed. I had today off because it was sunny and the plants were still wet from last night. I was thinking hard about my best friend. We wouldn't be the same with Selena in the picture. Then I heard a knock. I wanted to tell them to go away, but being me I walked over in my cut off shorts and tank top and opened the door. Then I saw Luke. I could feel a tear fall down my cheek. "Hey there…..", I mumbled. "Angela? You alright?", he asked worriedly. I nodded and looked up. Hey he was still my friend he didn't deserve to meet my sobby self. "I was wondering if you wanted to go on a picnic.", he nervously mumbled. "Sure!", I giggled. He was cute if I was going to have him as a friend or not. He smiled, "Great meet me at the lighthouse at around… five.", he commanded in an army voice. I smiled, "Okay see you there."
At 4:30 I got in a blue tank top that said party like a princess, lighter denim shorts, and some blue nike shoes. Then I ran over to the lighthouse. "Heyo!", Luke shouted from over at the bench to the right of the light house. I grinned and ran over. He hadn't laid anything out so I was confused. He saw my face and had a sheepish smile on. "I don't really know how to set it up…", he mumbled. I smiled sweetly, "Don't worry about it, I can do it for you if you like." He nodded. I laid the blanket out, it was red and white checkered, iconic. Then I pulled the food out of the picnic basket. There was spinach cake, protein shakes, and banana pudding. Of course everything he loved, I smiled. Over the time we had been friends I had come to love any food he liked. It wasn't even on purpose, it was like it was meant to be. We sat down and had the best time of our lives. When we pulled out the spinach cake Luke shuffled through his pockets. When he pulled it out I noticed it was a wrapped present. What…..? Then it hit me, he had gotten me a present. I probably looked like I was drunk but I had the sloppiest smile on my face. "Here, its- wait open it first", he stuttered. I giggled. Carefully, I opened the small present. It was a picture of us together at the beach. "Happy Birthday Angela.", he whispered. I was so stunned, but what hit me the hardest ever is when he held out his hand. I slowly grabbed it and he pulled me up. Well it would have all gone well if he hadn't accidently pulled up too hard and had pulled me straight into a kiss. I was stunned, amazed, shocked and ten more words in the category all at once. When he pulled back he asked, "Angela will you be my girlfriend?" I covered my mouth with my hands. "Yes, yes, yes and more yes!", I squealed. He laughed, "Come on let's pick this stuff up." I nodded and helped pick up the wonderful picnic.
A/N: So as much as there is quite a bit of Luke x Angela I thought that I could contribute to that world. Thank you guys for all of your support!
