Chapter Two: A new start
"Ugh Luke where do you want this bow?" yelled a tired Zuri. "Uhhh I don't now just set the dishes in the kitchen." He replied quickly.
"Remind me again, why you asked Robbie and I to help you move your stuff when you could have just got professional movers." She said with her hands on her hips. "Why get movers when I have siblings who can help." He said with a sly smile.
"Big brother, why are you moving I don't want you to move and leave the house!" Robbie wailed while embracing his taller brother. "Robbie! Robbie let go!" Luke yelled while prying his brothers' arm off his torso.
"Robbie I am already a grown man I should have moved earlier. Plus mom and dad have too many rules and I can't bring anyone over." Luke explained to his younger.
"Translation: Luke is way too old to be living with mom and dad." Zuri said with a laugh while Luke glared at her. "Yeah, yeah but don't come to my house when mom or dad are in one of their moods." Luke stated.
"I would not even want to come in your nasty apartment anyway." Zuri mumbled. "Okay back to work!" Luke said while opening the door to get another box.
"Hold up I have a call...Ooh I gotta take this." She drifted. Robbie shrugged and went to get another box. Zuri put a hand on the speaker of the phone and glared at Luke. "What are you still doing here we will never get anything done if you just stand there being noisy listening to my conversation." She whispered annoyed.
"Nah I'll wait till you're finished." he said with a wave of a hand and a sly smirk. "Yeah, right, no way, yeah yeah, hey listen I have to go, yeah I am very sorry I will call you later." Zuri said while hanging up the phone.
"Took you long enough." Luke said. "Whatever Luke." Zuri said while rolling her eyes.
"What do we have left to take up there?" Zuri asked with a groan. "Uhh I think all that we have left is some dishes, cleaning supplies-" "Even though you do not know how to clean." Zuri said cutting him off. "Ahem, as I was saying some more clothes, and then the T.V., but don't worry I can do that with Robbie." He said. The pair walked to the moving truck and opened the trunk.
"Here I will give you the boxes with my clothes since your pretty weak." Luke said. "Ugh rude!" Zuri said while punching Luke in the arm playfully and taking the boxes.
"Since I trust you more than Zuri I am giving you the dishes, please try not to break them." Luke said. "I got it big brother." A determined Robbie replied. "I mean it Rob be careful with those, they are really, really expensive." Luke yelled. "And I said I got it." Robbie yelled back with his heavy accent.
Robbie better not break those dishes. Luke thought while taking the box labeled 'cleaning supplies' and shutting and locking the trunk. He hopped off the trunk and adjusted the box in his arms. This condo is sweet! Man it feels good to get away from THAT apartment. His thoughts were interrupted when he fell. "What the hell." He mumbled to himself.
"Ouch that hurt." A new voice mumbled. Luke looked left and right but saw no one. "I wonder who said that." He mumbled. "Uh down here." said the voice. Luke looked underneath him and his face immediately heated up. "Oh my- I am so sorry." Luke said while getting up quickly. "It's very much ok-" She was cut off by Luke.
"Listen I am very sorry, I did not even see you -but then again I was not really paying attention- oh gosh I didn't hurt you, right?" He rambled. The blonde laughed at him and Luke felt his blush deepen. "No I am fine, no scratches or bruises see." She said gesturing to her pale arms. "Oh thank god." He said with a relived sigh.
Zuri came down from the elevator and saw the two smiling and talking. She leaned against the frame and smiled a evil smile suddenly getting a plan. "A match made in heaven." She said grinning like a chastiser cat. She laughed at how Luke was acting. Oh he has it bad! She thought. His face was flushed in embarrassment and he was scratching the back of his neck and he looked so...cute. Not that she would ever say that out loud.
So being the awesome little sister she was Zuri decided right then and there to hook her brother with the blonde beauty. Usually Emma would be the one in the family to play matchmaker but since she and Luke were not talking she would gladly take the job.
"Yeah I did." Luke replied while picking up the box. "Hey Luke!" Zuri yelled. At the sound of his name, he turned around as well as the blonde and Zuri had to take a double take.
The girl was drop dead gorgeous. "This is going to be harder than I thought she is way out of his league." Zuri mumbled to herself.
"I can't help you finish decorating the apartment I have something to do." Zuri lied. "You do? I thought you were free all day today." Luke said dumbly. "Yeah I know but a girl that recently met asked me for help on something so I gotta go." She hinted. Luke squinted really hard at her trying to comprehend her. "You do? I still have a lot of decorating to do and unpack, you know I suck at that stuff, I will mess the whole place!" He complained.
"If you really need a hand, I can help I got nothing better to do." The blonde said with a genuine smile. Luke turned around and faced the girl beside him. "No I can't let you do that. I already feel bad for falling on you, I don't want to be a bother-" before he finish his sentence Zuri cut him off.
"Oh can you? Pretty please with cherries on top. You know guys they are totally hopeless when it especially my brother he cannot fold for his life. So please can you do this -and I know I just met you but I will owe you big time." Zuri pretended. "Well..." The girl faked thought before nodding her head. "Sure I will help! I am awesome when it comes to organizing." The blonde said.
Operation hook Luke up half way done! She thought. However Zuri inwardly face palmed when she saw Robbie walking out of the elevator with a big smile on his face. No Robbie is going to ruin everything! Okay Zuri calm down and think fast. She thought.
Zuri pulled out her phone and text Robbie.
To: Robbie
911 EMERGENCY! Go to Mom and Dad's house ASAP!
Not a moment later did he dash out the lobby door with a worried look on his face. Phew that was a close one! Zuri thought while pocketing her phone. She looked up and smiled at the blonde and Luke who were giving her questioning looks.
"Oh great thank you so much uh- what's your name?" Zuri asked. "Oh Connie, Connie Thompson." She said with a smile. "Thanks so much Connie you are a lifesaver!" Zuri said with a smile as well. Plan set up Luke with pretty blonde a success! Now it's all up to him...oh boy. She thought. "Okay bye Luke!" Zuri said while rushing to the door.
"Wait Zuri." Luke called. "Damn he called my bluff." Zuri whispered to herself. Slowly she turned around and smiled sweetly. "Yes?" She asked. "What about Robbie? Where is he at?" He asked. "Oh Rob had an emergency too so he left, he sent me a text saying so and it completely slipped my mind to tell you, sorry." She said.
"Oh, well uh good luck with your friend." He said. "Right bye Luke, Connie it was nice meeting you." She said quickly before dashing out the glass doors. "Bye Zuri it was nice meeting you too." Connie called out.
"Well...that was weird." Luke said while looking down at Connie. She nodded in agreement. "Should we get started?" She asked looking up at him. He gulped and nodded hesitantly. "Sure uh I'll show you where I live." He said walking to the elevator with her.
A/N: And fin. Originally I was going to have Connie's debut in a whole different scenario but I decided against it because I liked this way better. SO what do you guys think? Review and tell me what you think! Stay in tuned for the next chapter 'Organizing and Personal talks!' Well until next time.
