I sighed as I looked at all the boxes I had to unpack. My aunt just sent the rest of my stuff, and there must have been hundreds of boxes full of clothes, knick-knacks, and some furniture. There were boxes on the floor, on the kitchen counter, on the table, and even on my bed. I had no
idea I had so much stuff! It's a good thing I got my house upgraded yesterday.

I put a hand on my forehead, when I heard a knock on the door. I walked over to answer it, avoiding every box. When I opened it, I saw Luke standing there with a grin on his face.

"Hey Angie!" He greeted. I smiled and he gave me a big hug. It's been two days since the Selena incident, but Luke and I haven't acted any different. We still laugh and hang out like we did before Selena tried to split us. "You got any plans for today?"

I let him in, and motioned at the boxes taking over my house. "Unpacking," I answered. "My aunt just sent me the rest of my stuff that I left at her house." Luke nodded.

"Ah, I see. Well, do you need any help?" he asked. I sighed with relief.

"Do I ever. Will you please help me?"

He nodded and grinned. "Of course! You're my girlfriend, and I'm there for you. Maybe we could get more people to help to make it more fun!"

I shook my head and said, "Renee and Toby are on a date somewhere, Anissa has to watch Taylor, Kathy went mining with Owen, and Candace has work. Jin's busy at the clinic, Calvin and Pheobe are exploring in the mine, and I don't think either Bo or Maya want to help."

Luke shrugged and looked around. "Well then, we have a lot of unpacking to do!"

"Phew!" Luke said as he sat down on my new blue couch. "That was a lot of work! Thank goddess we're done!"

"And now we can eat," I said. I put a plate of mashed potatoes and steak in front of him, and sat down next to him. Luke picked up his plate and sniffed it, and I protested. "Aw, come on, it's microwavable food!"

Luke looked at me. "But it's from your microwave. Who knows what could've happened to it while it was in there." I chuckled and pushed his shoulder, which made him smile. "Ah, the famous shoulder-push. You've done it to me so many times, that it doesn't hurt anymore. Not that it hurt that much before."

"Shut up and eat your crappy food," I grumbled. He laughed, and furrowed his eyebrows.

"Hey look, there's still one more box," he said, pointing at the corner. Yep, there was still one tiny box. I walked over to it, and opened it up. When I saw what was inside, I smiled and motioned for Luke to come. Inside, there were things from when Luke and I were kids. Little things he gave me, stuff we made, and the scrapbook that held all out pictures.

I picked up the scrapbook, and showed it to Luke. He grinned, and opened it. The first picture was of a six-year-old Gill crying with wet pants, while Luke and I were rolling around in the background, laughing.

~Flashback~

"Do you have the thing connected?" Luke asked me. I nodded and showed him. We had our prank ready for Gill, and I thought it was awesome.

I heard footsteps, and gasped. "He's coming!"

Luke and I hurried behind a bush as Gill came. We had small speakers hidden around the park, that were connected to a microphone we were going to speak in.

"Gill...Gill...we're coming for you, Gill," Luke whispered in the microphone in a demon voice. I put a hand over my mouth to stifle my laughter. Gill looked around, scared.

"H-Hello?" he asked weakly.

I took the mic from Luke and said, "We know who you are, Gill. And we're going to get you."

Gill's eyes started filling with tears. "W-Who are you? W-What do want?"

"We want your brain!" Luke exclaimed into the mic. Then Gill started crying, and screamed, "NO! You can't have my brain! It's my brain!" Luke laughed evilly, and Gill's pants got darker. We started rolling around in the grass, cracking up, and the camera we set up flashed and took a picture of Gill.

He noticed the flash, and wiped his eyes. He looked around, and saw Luke and I. "You...you two are so dead!"

"Catch us if you can, Gilly!" I exclaimed. We hurried up, and Gill started chasing us around the park.

~Flashback Ends~

Luke started rolling around on the floor, while I turned the page. On the right, there was a picture of Luke and I at the amusement park. Luke had his arm around my shoulder, and he was covered in vanilla milkshake.

~Flashback~

"Okay kids, stand together," Dale instructed as he held the camera in front of us. Luke and his family took me to the amusement park for my sixth birthday. We stood up against the wooden fence behind us, and Luke put his arm around my shoulders. "Now smile big."

I smiled as wide as I could. I was having a really good time. It was my first time here, so Luke showed me all of his favorite rides, and I was pretty tired. But yet, I couldn't wait to go on another ride. Dale pulled the camera away from his face, and furrowed his eyebrows.

"Uh, honey?" he asked Luke's mom. "Which button do I press?" The woman rolled her golden eyes, and walked over to help her husband.

"You press this one, dear," she answered, smiling. Just then, someone on the rollercoaster above dropped their milkshake, and it spilt all over Luke.
His hair and the front of his shirt was covered in vanilla. His mom and I roared with laughter, and Luke got a look of disgust on his face, right as Dale took the picture.

"Eww!" Luke exclaimed. He wiped some milkshake off of his shirt, while his mom and I continued to laugh.

~Flashback Ends~

I snickered as I remembered that day. Luke stuck his tongue out at me and pointed at the picture on the left. It was of Luke and I slow dancing. I was standing on his toes, and he was biting his lip in pain.

~Flashback~

"Ugh, I can't believe my mom made me come here," Luke complained. His mom's friend was having a ballroom party, and she brought us. She made Luke dress in a tuxedo, and I was dressed in a pink ruffled dress. He tugged on his bow tie, and sat down. "I'm so bored! There's nothing to do but eat."

"We could dance," I suggested.

"Do you know how to ballroom dance?"

I shook my head. "No, but you could teach me." Luke's mom has been teaching him how to dance ever since she was invited. Luke shrugged and stood up, holding his hand out to me. I took it, and he helped me up. We walked over to the dancefloor.

"Okay, so...what now?" I asked, looking around.

"Uhh, you put your hand on my shoulder and then I put mine...on your waist," he answered, blushing. I blushed, too, and did what he told me to. He put his hand on my waist and added, "And now we...dance."

We stepped to the side, then turned, and stepped forwards. I stepped on his toes, and he yelped. "Sorry," I said sheepishly. We continued to dance, and I kept bumping into him and stepping on his feet.

"You know," he started. "Why don't you just stand on my toes while I do the moving?"

I shrugged and stood on his toes, like I would with my dad. He whimpered in pain, and bit his lip. "Ow, not a good idea."

Dale and his wife saw us dancing, and came over.

"Aw, Dale, look," she said, pointing at us. "Where's the camera? We have to take a picture!" Dale pulled the camera out of her purse, which he was holding, and gave it to her. "Okay, smile!"

I grinned, but Luke was still biting his lip when she took the picture. "Aw, we're gonna keep this picture forever," Luke's mom said, grinning happily at us.

~Flashback Ends~

"I had bruises on my feet for a week!" Luke complained.

"It was still cute," I said, and he gave me a kiss on the cheek. I turned the page, and gasped. On the right, there was a photo of Luke and I outside, covered in mud. "Remember that day?"

"Do I ever," Luke replied, shaking his head.

~Flashback~

I sighed as I looked out my window.

"What's the matter, Angie?" Luke asked me. We were spending the day at my house, since we're always at Luke's house.

"It's raining," I replied sadly. He walked over to where I was, and patted my head.

"Aw, it's okay, little Angie. The rain won't last long," he reassured me. I looked into his golden eyes, and gave him a 'seriously'
look.

"They weather-people said that the rain would last all day."

Luke shrugged. "Well then, let's make the most of it. Let's go play in the rain!" I raised an eyebrow at him.

"But we'll get wet."

"So what? Let's go!" He grabbed my wrist and ran out the door. As soon as we stepped outside, I got soaked. Luke let go of me, and ran around my front yard. Man, it was muddy. There where huge puddles of mud everywhere. I jumped in a puddle, and splashed mud everywhere, including of Luke. I started laughing at him.

"Oh, that's it! You're in trouble now!" He threatened.

"Can't catch me!" I called as I ran away. He chased me all around the yard for about an hour, when he finally caught me.

"Ahhh! Let me go! Let me go!" I shouted as he picked me up.

"Nope! You deserve your punishment," he argued.

He carried me bridal-style with trouble while I kicked my feet in the air. When we got to a deep mud puddle, he finally dropped me.
Literally. The puddle was deep enough that it didn't hurt, but I was dirty and covered in brown mush. Luke howled with laughter, and I threw some mud at him. It landed on his face, which made me laugh, too.

"Oh, you're getting it!" He exclaimed. He kicked some mud on me, and I stood up. I got two handfuls of mud, and threw it. For another hour, we flung mud at each other. Unfortunately, my parents came back from the store, and saw us covered head-to-toe in mud.

"Oh...my...goodness..." said my mom. Then her expression brightened and she said, "Dave, where's the camera? I have to take a picture of this!"

My dad ran in the house, then came back out with the camera in his hands. He quickly handed it to my mom, who said, "Smile!" and snapped the picture. She showed my dad the picture, and they both started laughing.

"What?" I asked. "We can't look that silly"

Luke observed me, then busted out laughing with my parents. I looked around with a confused look on my face. "What?...What?"

~Flashback Ends~

I looked closer at the picture, then started laughing, in the same way my parents and Luke did. Luke looked closer at it, too, and grinned.

"Even when I'm covered in mud, I'm still hot," he said, which made me laugh harder.

"You can be so big-headed sometimes, you know that?" I asked, after calming down a little.

"What?" Luke asked, pouting. "Okay, you look hot, too."

I rolled my eyes and gave him a smile, which he returned. I looked back at the picture, then said, "If we were the age we are now when that happened, it would've been a great time to make a move."

Luke smirked and riased an eyebrow seductively. "What, like this?" He put a finger under my chin and lifted it up, then softly kissed me. I pulled away a little, and giggled.

"Yeah, something like that," I said. Then he kissed me again, and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, kissing him back. I laid down against the floor, and Luke layed on top of me, and we continued to kiss each other. A couple minutes passed, when there was a knock on the door. I opened my eyes, and rolled Luke off of me. Dusting myself off, I stood up and walked to the door. When I opened it, I saw a very happy Renee, and a blushing Toby.

"Hey Renee!" I said cheerfully. She squeeled in response and held out her hand, where there was a diamond ring on her ring finger.

"I'm getting married!" She exclaimed. We screamed like thirteen-year-old fan-girls, and I hugged her.

"Oh, Renee! I'm so happy for you! You and Toby are such a great couple!" I told her. I really was happy for my best friend, even though I was a little jealous. She and Toby had been going out as long as Luke and I had, and they're already engaged. Luke came up behind me and out a hand on my shoulder, grinning widely.

"Cangrats, guys!" He said. "So when's the wedding?"

"On the twenty-sixth," Toby answered calmly.

"That's only eight days away," I commented. Today was the eighteenth of Summer. I know that they've only been dating for about eleven days,
but a lot of people rush into marriage here, apparently. I heard that Craig proposed to Ruth after only five days, who knows how many years ago.
"You're gonna be planning 24/7!"

"Well," Renne says. "Anissa, Kathy, and Candace are helping us plan, and I was hoping you would, too."

I smiled and nodded. "Of course! Anything for my best friend."

Renee beamed. "Great! And since you're my best friend, I was wondering if you would be my maid of honor?"

I put a hand over my mouth and squeeled. Then I started jumping up and down, and hugged her again. "Heck yeah, I'll be your maid of honor!"

This was going to be a tiring eight days, helping Renee and Toby plan their wedding. But it would be worth it to see my best friend be happy with the love of her life.
