The next morning I woke up with a smile. Last night Luke kissed me! He kissed me, Melissa Wu! When I finished getting dressed I looked into the mirror. I hope Luke likes my outfit! I wore a dark grey V-neck sweater and a tight pair of skinny jeans. My hair was slightly curled and down. I grabbed a bottle of hairspray and heard my silver bangles clink.

Not wanting to see my father I raced out the door and made my way to school. I looked around at the peaceful surrounding. I never stood there and took everything in. The mail-man delivering mail as a father walked his daughter to her bus stop. I was jealous of their relationship. My father never held my hand the way he was doing to his daughter and never even walked me to my bus stop! Not that I didn't have a good childhood, I did. I just never had a good relationship with my father. I stopped thinking about my depressing relationship when I felt a pair of warm arms wrap around my waist.

"Hey", a husky voice breathed into my ear. He dropped a light kiss on my cheek but I wanted more. "You okay," he asked. He was actually concerned!

"Yeah, I said not wanting to ruin the mood with my thoughts. What are you doing here?"

"I just thought I'd walk you to school."

"I'm allowed to do that right, even though I'm not your boyfriend?" He asked with a slight smile.

"Luke," I said as I remembered the question last night. Will you be my girlfriend? I said I wasn't sure because I wasn't. I didn't know where I stood with Jackson, even if I did stand anywhere.

"No, never mind, I'm sorry I asked, he said. But…..would it still be wrong to ask for a good morning kiss?" How can I say no, he's been great to me, one little kiss won't hurt I thought.

I smiled a little and leaned forward. Our lips met and even thought it was only for a few seconds it felt like forever. His hands rested firmly on my hips as mine played with his belt loops. I could get used to kissing him I thought. Then I heard somebody call my name and I immediately pulled back.

"Melissa," I turned and was shocked with who I saw.

"Jackson, I screeched. W-What are you doing here?"

"I was coming to apologize and give you this, he said as he shoved a red velvet box into my hands.

"But I guess you're too busy with him," he spat.

With that he stormed off leaving me, Luke, and the unopened box.

"Jackson," I screamed. But it was already too late, he was down the street.

"I-I have to go," I said to Luke without even making eye contact.

"Melissa," he yelled.

I ran the opposite direction not even knowing where I was going. I have to get out of here. Without looking I ran across the street and saw a bus coming my way.

"BEEP," was all I heard as the box slipped out of sweaty hand.
