Luka sighed as he sat by himself on the subway, looking out the window. Of all the rotten luck he'd had. Nothing could beat today.
He had had her...Right where he wanted her. Marinette was putty in his hands. He had taken her to the ice skating rink along with Adrien and Kagami. Things had gone really well... But in the end.. she had gone back to Adrien.
It figures... Juleka had warned him several times that she and Adrien were destined to be together, but he was relentless about getting her.
But all that relentlessness didn't work in his favor. As his mind wandered, he didn't notice the train stop.
When the doors opened, a tall, leggy blonde entered the train. She was dressed in a black off the shoulder shirt, a black dungaree skirt, and black ankle boots.
She tiredly walked towards where Luka was sitting and flopped down in the seat next to him "Uggghhh what a day!" The girl said.
Luka turned to look at the girl, and his mouth opened slightly as he looked the girl up and down.
He saw that her blonde hair was straight, with little curls at the end, the curls were dyed purple. Then he looked into her tired eyes, those beautiful Emerald pools that you could drown in.
"Excuse me Miss, are you okay?" He asked her.
The girl turned to face him, her eyes a little wider open now "Huh? Oh yeah... I'm fine. Just had a hard day. I had forgotten how hard modeling sessions could be." She told him.
Luka smiled a bit "Oh! You're a model? Well, I'm not so shocked about that. You're... You're beautiful." He said, blushing.
The girl blushed as well. For some reason at this moment, she couldn't take her eyes off of Luka.
"Well thank you... I Uhhh... I think you're handsome as well." She said as she scooted closer to him.
Luka chuckled and then shook his head "Thanks so much sweetheart... Flattery will get you everywhere with me, pretty lady." he said leaning closer to her.
The girl blushed as she looked at him "So what's your name, cutie?" she asked him.
Luka smiled and took her hand "The name is Luka... Luka Couffaine... and what's your name, angel?" he asked.
"My name is Antoinette Agreste... Nice to meet you Luka..." she said, blushing even deeper.
"Antoinette huh? Beautiful... A name fit for a princess." He said.
"I'm not a princess... Just your average teen model." Antoinette said with a smile.
"Well you're the prettiest model I've ever seen." Luka said with a small smile.
Antoinette blushed heavily "Well someone's charming as hell huh? I'll tell you what... Seeing as how you seem like such a sweet man. How about I let you take me to the Cafe for a bite to eat?" She asked.
Luka smiled suddenly. This is the first time he'd been so happy since his date with Marinette ended "Sure... I'd love to. The Cafe is at the next stop.. Why don't we see how far it goes from there?" He said.
Antoinette leaned her face closer to Luka's "For your sake... I hope its very far." She said as she leaned in and kissed him softly.
