To this Debbie Hicks person that's been writing the reviews on all my stories, I don't know what is you are doing but it sounds like you are writing the story. Well stop it, it's confusing my readers. What you wrote on the reviews doesn't make any sense at all what this story is about. So shut up, read and let people enjoy my story. I'm sorry if I'm being rude but I would appreciate it if you stop writing like that on the reviews. Thank you.
Now we're about to see Krystal's side of the story on their lunch date.
Chapter 5 – Just Lunch
Krystal's POV
When I woke up, I had a plan fully formed in my mind as though my sleeping brain had been working on it all night. I decided on talking to Lucas today at school. Just the basics; introductions, getting to know one another that sort of thing and hoping he and I could be friends. It sounds easy enough right? I just hope I don't make a fool of myself.
I got out of bed and did my usual routine in the bathroom. I put on a grey long sleeve tops lace collar and dark skinny jeans. Daddy left the house before I did and I was soon at school by then. You know, just the usual mornings.
Today is the same as the first. Everyone is talking about the Cullens. I heard some of the girls have plans to ask Lucas out. Word gets around fast about him. I mean this is Forks. I just hope he says no to them.
I came into history where I saw Lucas sitting at the same seat he was in yesterday. Today he's wearing jeans with an eco grey long sleeve hooded pull over t-shirt. Oh my gosh he looks so beautiful. Snap out of it Krystal! I was thinking about sitting next to him when I was called over by Nathan. Well, I can't be rude to him. I thought as I sat down behind him.
"What's up Nathan?" I asked.
"Nothing much." Nathan replied. "You got any plans for the weekend?"
"Not that I know of. Why?" I shrugged.
"Well I was thinking you girls and I should hang out together this weekend since we never did over the summer." Nathan explained.
"Sounds good." I smiled as we were joined by Carly and Danielle.
"What happen to you two?" Nathan asked when Carly sat Danielle down next to him.
"I have to pull crazy girl away from one of the Cullens this morning." Carly explained sitting next to me. "She was about to jump on Edward. Lucky for him, he got out of the way before she got a chance, as if he could read her mind." I couldn't help but laugh.
"Danielle, you seriously got problems, you know that?" I asked.
"Come on, you know you would do that if it was one of those boys." Danielle said.
"Well can you do it when you're not all crazy?" Carly asked. "It was already embarrassing enough in hall ways."
As she and Danielle started arguing, I heard Nathan muttered, "I really need to hang with some boys." I giggled.
Mr. Denning started the class today by giving lectures about facts and certain events that happened in 1800s which is as boring as yesterday. The class hardly pays attention to what he says. Nathan fell asleep in the middle of the lecture, no surprises there, Danielle is texting underneath her desk and Carly was doodling in her notebook rather than taking notes as I am doing right now. Don't think of me as a nerd, I just don't wanna fail. As the teacher kept on talking blah blah blah, my mind was all over the plan about Lucas.
So many questions are popping in my head; what if he says no? What if someone already asked him out? What if I try to walk up to him and make a fool of myself? What am I talking about? A lot bad things could happen. This is Lucas we're talking about. He's just so perfect. Any girl would be lucky enough to be with him.
I looked over to my left and check what Lucas is doing; probably doing his usual thing like yesterday. I must have been seeing things because when I turned my head, I thought I saw Lucas staring at me. Maybe it was my imagination.
Mr. Denning finished his lecture fifteen minutes early so he gave the rest of class some free time. I looked at Lucas again and saw him playing on his phone. While my friends discuss on what to do this weekend, I decided to make my move.
I got out of my seat and started walking over to Lucas slowly not to trip over. With each step, I could hear my heart beating very loudly. I was this close to him when I suddenly panicked and walked passed him to the pencil sharpener and sharpen my pencil that I luckily have in my hand. Once my pencil was sharpened, I walked back to my desk passing Lucas as I feel myself blushing.
I cannot believe I blew it. Why did I just chicken out like that? I sat back down with my friends who didn't noticed I left earlier.
"How about we hang out at Krystal's place?" Carly asked.
"Huh? Oh, uh sure why not? My dad has the night shift on Saturday so we could hang out then." I said recovering when I looked at Lucas again who is still on his phone.
"Then it's settled then." Danielle said excitedly.
"Just as long it doesn't involve me doing dress up, nail painting or putting makeup on like what you girls did to me last time." Nathan said as the girls and I laughed.
My friends and I went different ways as I headed my way to trig. Once again I saw Lucas sitting in the same seat with Rosalie and Emmett who are in a conversation as I sat down. Mrs. Wilson passed by to check our homework. When she came to me, she gave my work an A which I am very proud of. I looked over at Lucas's table where Mrs. Wilson checks on their assignments. Lucas got an A as well as Rosalie. Lucas laughed at Emmett when he got a D on his. I wonder how Emmett even survives this far in school. Mrs. Wilson was showing the class another review before she starts with the subjects, but I wasn't paying any attention nor was I taking any notes because I couldn't help but feel disappointed in myself.
Who am I kidding? There's no way that Lucas Stone would actually want to talk to me. I don't care how positive my friends say about me. I'm nothing, nothing to Lucas. What does a guy like him want with a girl like me? Oh mom, I wish you were here. You always gave me good advice on how to deal with life and people. I really need your help.
"Try."
I almost jumped when I heard my mom's voice.
"Try."
She kept repeating the same word in my head.
Try…?
Flashback
Age 14
My mom and I are in the backyard playing volleyball on a bright sunny day of the summer. There was never a dull moment with my mom especially with our passion in volleyball.
"That was a good way to blow off some steam." Mom said as she and I sat down on deck to take a breather."You're getting better every day I tell ya. I mean you're even better than me when I was you're age." She laughed.
I didn't say anything when she gave me a glass of lemonade.
"Krystal, is something wrong?" She asked.
"It's just… I don't think I'm good enough to make the team." I blurted out.
"Now why on earth would you say that?" Mom asked. "You're very talented."
"And so are many other girls who will try out." I said.
"Krystal, how can you know you won't make the team if it hasn't even happened yet?" Mom asked.
"I-I-I just know okay." I said hanging my head down in shame.
"Listen to me," Mom took my face in her hands and made me look right in her eyes, the same eyes I have. "You can't know things that could happen if they haven't happen yet. If you know these things before they happen then you will never be able to believe in yourself and you'll never achieve what you want. Your father and I have always believed in you since you discovered your love for volleyball and now you have to do the rest in believing yourself."
Tears came out of my eyes at my mom's words. "But what if I don't make it?" I asked. I don't want to be an embarrassment to my mom who was once a state player on the team.
Mom pulled me into a hug and said, "Then you know what happens. You knew because you've tried. Even if you fail, you can always try again. Remember to always try and then you'll see what happens next."
I squeezed my mom very tight in a thank you way as she rubbed my back and we stayed in this position until the sun went down.
End of Flashback
My mom is right; I gotta stop thinking and just try. Even if Lucas doesn't want to talk to me, I can always try again another time. I have to have confidence and just walk up to Lucas and just talk to him. Just don't back out Krystal.
Mrs. Wilson ended her lesson with only five minutes of class left to go allowing us to get ready. I swung my bag over my shoulders and turn to see Lucas getting up from his seat. This is now or never Krystal. I thought as I walked up to him very slowly.
"Um, excuse me." I said as Lucas threw his backpack over his shoulder.
Lucas turned and looked at me as if he just noticed me for the first time. He's only like five or six inches taller than me but I can see that his eye color is a unique shade of gold. Oh my gosh he's so beautiful even up close. Just looking at him makes me wanna melt into a puddle.
"H-Hi." I let out a small gasp but I don't think he heard me. Wow, he even sounds as beautiful as he looks. Krystal, pull yourself together! I blushed from my thoughts.
"Hi." Why am I so nervous? Just talk already. "I'm Krystal Diamond. You're Lucas Stone right?"
"Y-Yeah, last time I checked." Lucas said. Wow beautiful and funny.
"Um, listen," I said looking down moving my foot in a small circle. "I know this is sudden and all, but I was wondering if you like to um… I don't know… have lunch with me… today?" I asked nervously looking up at him.
"He'd love too!"
I jumped when Emmett just popped over Lucas's shoulder all of a sudden causing my heart beating furiously. How did I not notice his huge appearance? Lucas was giving Emmett an annoyed look probably for giving me a heart attack. Emmett who has his hand on Lucas's shoulder was grinning at him. Next to him was Rosalie who winked at Lucas, then turned to me with a smile.
Lucas took a deep breath and turned to me. "Y-Yeah, I love to." He answered making my heart burst. "But not because he said it, because I said it."
"G-Great, I'll see you then." I said with a small smile and left. I was at the door when I turned my head to see Lucas throwing Emmett's hand off him.
"What was that for?" He asked in annoyance as he punched Emmett's arm. I guess he didn't appreciate the way Emmett spoke for him. Judging by Emmett's expression, he looked like he didn't feel a thing.
"What, can't a guy help his favorite brother out?" Emmett said smiling putting his arm over Lucas's shoulders.
"Can't a guy not meddle in his brother's life?" Lucas asked as he threw off his arm and started walking away from them as Emmett started laughing. I quickly got out before he noticed and started walking down the hallways as I couldn't stop myself from smiling.
I can't believe it; I actually talked to Lucas and what's more, I asked him out to lunch and to top it all off, he said yes. Well Emmett said yes but Lucas said he was gonna but it doesn't matter. To be honest though, I didn't plan to ask him out in the first place. I had no idea where that came from but at least it gives me a chance to get to know him.
I was on my way to my locker when I saw Edward and Bella standing a few lockers away from mine. Bella was leaning her back against the lockers holding a textbook in her hand as Edward placed one hand on the locker and leaned against it. The two are in deep conversation to each other as they smile and silently laugh.
Gosh, seeing them like that makes me wish that was me and Lucas standing there; me leaning back against the lockers while one hand of Lucas's is pressed against the lockers closed to my face, staring into those unique gold eyes that are so hypnotizing making me speechless as he leans close to me, putting his lips on my – Krystal you're doing it again!
I shook my head again from my thoughts. And I thought Danielle was the one who has a problem.
Edward looked up at me when he heard me approached my locker. All of a sudden he chuckled causing me to freeze in my tracks. I looked down to see nothing underneath my shoes and I turned around to see no one behind me. When I turned back to him, he was whispering something to Bella who had a smile growing on her face as her eyes grew big. She turned to me and waved at me with a smile as I waved back awkwardly.
I opened my locker and first put some of my books from my bag away and then grab chemistry book and stuff it in the bag. Once I closed my bag, I look myself in the mirror on my locker. I don't have anything stuck in my teeth and there's nothing on my face. I closed my locker and walked past Bella and Edward without looking back. I have no idea what I did that could make Edward laugh. I don't know if I could be any more embarrassing to him.
I continued walking in the foreign language hall where I saw Nessie standing outside a classroom door jumping up and down squealing. She seems very happy about something. I blinked just for a second and she was gone when I opened them. Whoa, she must be fast. I took a peek in the classroom where Nessie stood and saw her hugging Lucas. Nessie must be very fast to almost knock him out of his seat and judging by his reaction he did not see her coming.
"Lucas, Lucas, Lucas, I heard, I heard, I heard!" Nessie squealed jumping up and down. I almost laughed when I saw Lucas struggling to get out of her arms.
"What did you hear?" He asked while rubbing his neck as she let go.
"You asked Krystal out to lunch!" Nessie said excitedly.
I felt something slip right inside me so heavy. Okay how did she know about Lucas asking me out to lunch? Hold on rewind that, I asked him out to lunch. How could she hear about that so quickly? The only people who knew were me, Lucas, Emmett and Rosalie, unless the latter of the two blabbed it to their siblings.
"How did you know about that?!" Lucas asked with his eyes wide open.
"Alice." Nessie answered. Alice? That short pixie girl? How could she know about it? Maybe Emmett or Rosalie did tell them about it. Oh man what did I get myself into?
I sat down in chemistry when I arrived, thinking about this lunch with Lucas before class starts. I'm starting to have second thoughts about this.
"Krystal come on, it's not like you were asking him out on a date."
"Yeah but the way Nessie, Emmett and Rosalie reacted, it sounded like date to them."
"You can't back out now. Look at the progress you made."
"Yeah and just wait how it ends."
"Hello."
I turned around and saw Edward and Bella sitting behind me. I didn't even hear them come in.
"I'm sorry we never got the chance to introduce ourselves. I'm Edward Cullen." He said.
"And I'm Bella Swan." She said.
"I-I'm Krystal Diamond. Nice to meet you guys." I said.
"Likewise." Bella smiled.
"Listen, I'm sorry about earlier in the hallways," Edward said leaving me in confusion. "It's just that our brother Emmett told us that our other brother Lucas asked you out to lunch and when Lucas told us that you asked him, well it was pretty funny how it was told." He said with a chuckle.
"Oh," I said with a polite smile. I guess that makes sense. "That's okay."
"I think it's nice of you to ask him out to lunch." Bella said.
"Really?"
"Yeah," Bella said. "Lucas has been living with our family not too long and we think it would be nice if he has someone like you for a friend." She added a wink at me.
"Y-You really think so?" I asked blushing.
"Absolutely." Edward smiled. Before I could say anything, someone interrupted us.
"Well, well, well," We turned to see it was Miley who has her arms folded and two of her friends standing next to her. "Word on the street is that you asked Lucas out to lunch." She said to me. Wow, word gets around fast.
"So what if I did?" I asked.
"You bitch," Miley said angrily. "How dare you ask him before I did? I'm the one who should be asking him to lunch not you!"
"Ever heard of the early bird gets the worm?" I asked. I could hear Bella and Edward laughing at my comeback.
"I'm gonna make sure Lucas doesn't want to be with you, you understand that?" Miley said. "He's mine and everyone knows it."
"Excuse me but what makes you think that Lucas is yours?" I turned to see it was Bella speaking and she's glaring at Miley.
"Well he's hot and so am I. Do you need any more reasons?" Miley said to Bella like it was obvious.
"So basically you think you can get the best looking guy or any other kind just because you think you're such a big deal." Bella gritted her teeth.
"Well duh." Miley said. "That's how it works."
"Well you're dead wrong." Edward said. I saw that he has a dark expression on his face. "Lucas doesn't deserve to be with you. Not the way you've been dumping boys left and right here at this school especially after you've slept with that one guy Nick Peterson."
I almost laughed when Miley's eyes widened in surprised.
"H-How did you know about –?"
"I can read you two like a book." Edward said in a dark voice. "Now you better leave my brother and my friend alone or else you're gonna get me very angry. And you don't wanna make me angry."
"Maybe I want to see you get angry." Miley purred. Okay that girl is sick.
"Leave!" Bella snarled as standing up. She looks livid when she said it. It scared me more than it scared them who all took off to their seats.
"Oh my god I'm so sorry." Bella said in embarrassment when she sat down as Edward squeezed her hand with a smile.
"It's okay and thanks." I said kindly.
"Don't mention it." Bella smiled. "Um, is she always like this?"
I sighed. "She's been like that when I first came here."
"Does she… pick on you a lot?" Edward asked.
"Well not really. I mean she does but it doesn't really bother me which probably makes her hate me more." I said. "She does always have a habit of humiliating any girl at this school and dating their crushes right in front of them."
"Well I meant what I said; Lucas deserves to be with someone special. Maybe someone like you." Edward winked causing me to blush. Don't tell me they're expecting something special about me and Lucas.
Mrs. Edenstrom started the class as the bell rang. As she got started on today's lesson my phone vibrated in my pocket. I pulled it out to see a text message from Carly.
YOU! ME! TALK! FOURTH PERIOD! – Carly
Uh oh, she sounds upset. I wonder why? Oh I hope I didn't do anything bad to her. When class ended, I went to English where I saw Carly already in her seat with her arms crossed. I gulped.
"Um, hey Carly." I said nervously as I approached her.
"Sit down!" Carly commanded as I sat down next to her instantly. "You got some explaining to do sister."
"About what?" I asked slowly.
"Why didn't you tell me you asked Lucas out to lunch?!" Carly asked. Okay how do people get their information so fast?
"Um, how did you even know about that?" I asked nervously.
Before Carly could answer, someone attacked me from behind by throwing their arms around me. The impact from behind almost took the wind out of me. I looked over my shoulders to see it was Nessie who is squealing like crazy.
"That's how." Carly pointed. I forgot that she has class with Lucas and Nessie probably has it with them.
"You've heard?" I asked Nessie. She answered by squealing even louder and squeezing me even tighter that I almost couldn't breathe. Where does this girl get her strengths?
Carly started talking when Nessie who smiled, let's go of me. "Why didn't you tell me you asked Lucas out to lunch?" Carly asked again. "Wait, a better question is why didn't you tell me you've even plan to ask him out?"
"I didn't plan to ask him out to lunch in the first place. It just happened. I just wanted to talk to him, that's all. Just trying to be friendly with him." I explained.
"And you didn't even tell me earlier about all this?!" Carly asked in disbelief.
"I was lost in the moment when he said yes." I said sheepishly.
"Well next time you plan something like this, at least tell me. I'm your best friend for pete sake!" Carly said and then took a deep breath. "Okay, now that I got that off my chest, that's amazing!" She said smiling as she hugged me like crazy. Nessie joined in making me feel like I'm about to pass out. It's official; I have such weird friends.
After class has ended with Carly pestering me for details on how it all happened between me and Lucas through it all, all three of us were out of the classroom.
"Good luck on your 'date.'" Carly said giving me a quick hug before she took off with Nessie. I blushed when emphasized on the word 'date.'
I decided to wait at the entrance to the cafeteria and wait for Lucas since I'm sure he comes in after me. As students were passing by to get lunch, I saw Alice run passed me not before she stops and turned to me with a big smile. Soon I saw Lucas coming towards me making my heart beat very loudly. I smiled when he came up to me making me feel even more nervous.
"Hi." He said with a small smile. I could tell he sounds nervous too.
"Hi." I said nervously.
There was silence between us. Great, I feel like an idiot. I don't even know what to say.
"Um, shall we go in?" Lucas asked.
"S-Sure." I answered and we walked into the cafeteria together.
The minute we set foot in the cafeteria, everyone looked at us. I can tell they seem surprised. We kept walking to the food court and I can hear everyone whispering no doubt about us. I know for sure that I'm receiving a lot of glares from the girls. We grabbed our tray and started looking for a table. We passed by Nessie's table who I saw from the corner of my eye, gave Lucas the thumbs up. I saw my friends' table; Carly was smiling at me and Lucas while Nathan and Danielle looked speechless.
Lucas and I found an empty table and unfortunately for me, it was a few feet away from Lucas's siblings who all looked like they're about to see us put on a show. Lucas seems more uncomfortable about us sitting here than I am. He was staring at them for a few seconds before he turned away. As we sat down, the whole school started buzzing. Okay Krystal, just talk. Plain and simple, that's all.
"You don't eat much do you?" I asked mentioning his single apple on his tray.
"No, I'm on a special diet." Lucas said. I guess it makes sense for someone like him to be in good health. I took a bite of my turkey sandwich. When I looked up, I saw he already took a bite of his apple. Weird though. I didn't hear him chew on it.
"So you're Dr. Cullen's foster kid?" I asked.
"Yeah, you know him?" Lucas asked. Yeah I know him because I had my father give me every detail there is to know about I want him to think I'm a stalker?
"My dad is also a doctor and works with Dr. Cullen at the hospital." I said. He nodded in understanding. So far so good Krystal, keep going. "How long have you been living with him?"
"I was adopted by him and Esme, his wife about a year ago." Lucas explained.
"He adopted the others as well?" I asked pointing at the others. His siblings quickly turned away when Lucas turned to them and pretended to act natural.
"Yeah, Esme couldn't have kids of her own so she and Carlisle decided to adopt." Lucas explained looking down and playing with his apple. I find that habit of his kinda cute. Krystal! I almost slapped myself as Lucas continued. Glad he didn't noticed.
"The beautiful blonde girl is Rosalie, her twin brother is Jasper, the silent but cool, Emmett's the big guy with a good sense of humor," I thought I heard an "OW" from someone. "The pixie head girl you're referring to is his sister Alice. If you ever have plans for shopping, be careful with her; she's addicted to it." I gave a small laugh. I'm sure he's overreacting. "Her brother Edward is ten months older than her. A little warning to you; he's very nosy." Really? He doesn't like the nosy kind of guy. "Nessie is the youngest and Bella's my cousin. She's a nice person but can be very stubborn." He smirked at that last comment about Bella.
"Edward and Bella are in my chemistry class and I have Nessie in English." I said. "And you know I have math and history with you." I blushed.
"Yeah I know that." Lucas said. I couldn't see it but I'm sure he must be blushing.
Okay Krystal, you are already off to a good start so keep it going. I looked at his siblings again and then back to him.
"Um, are your siblings like together or something?" I asked. Lucas started to chuckle.
"That's what I asked the first time I met them. It was a bit awkward." Lucas said.
"So they're dating?" I asked.
"Yeah, Rosalie and Emmett, Alice and Jasper and Bella and Edward." Lucas said.
"What about you and Nessie?" I asked. Nice going Krystal, you're making yourself sound desperate.
"Nessie reminds me of my little sister. That's all I think of her so I love and treat her like one." Lucas said. He has a sister? I wonder what happened to her. "Besides she has a boyfriend Jacob, and I would tell the guys here to back off because he's the jealous type." He chuckled.
"Oh I see." I said looking down at my tray. So he is single. My mind was squealing inside. Krystal calm down. It doesn't mean he's into you but hey a girl can hope right?
"So why the sudden invite?"
"Huh?" I looked up at Lucas when I was in my thoughts.
"Um, why did you invite me for lunch?" he asked politely.
"Oh, um, well, I know that you're new here and I thought a cute guy like you could use a friend." I stuttered as I feel myself turning red. Did I just say he's cute? I mean he is but I didn't want him to hear me say it out loud.
"Well I'm honor to be asked by a beautiful girl." Lucas said. I began blushing like crazy and turned away. Did he actually say I'm beautiful? I wasn't sure if he said it on purpose or by accident. Either way those words have a huge effect on me.
Luckily I was saved from the awkwardness by my phone. I read the text message Carly sent me.
What happened? – Carly
He said I'm beautiful. – Krystal
Well it's true and he knows it. – Carly
You don't know that. – Krystal
Have I ever been wrong? – Carly
What is she, a psychic?
Just once can't you be wrong? – Krystal
I put my phone away and just looked up to see Lucas facing his siblings. I looked at them and they're rubbing their legs and glared at Lucas who was smirking. He noticed me looking at them both in confusion.
"They got stung by bees." He said quickly before I ask.
"I didn't hear any bees." I said.
"They're very tiny bees." Lucas said. Well that's odd but I decided not to question him further and shrugged as I took another bite of my sandwich.
"So tell me about yourself." Lucas said. Oh my gosh Lucas wants to know about me? Well don't just stand there Krystal, tell him.
"Well I lived here in Forks for a year." I said. "I moved from Olympia with my dad. I'm on the volleyball team, I do journalism for this school and I love to draw."
"What about your mom?" Lucas asked. At those words, I looked at my tray and tried not to show the tear that came out of my eye.
"My mom has been fighting cancer for five years. She died when I was fifteen." I said sadly.
Losing my mother was like losing a part of me as I watch her lying in the hospital bed holding my hand before she drifted away. It was like they took away the good people for no reason just to have us suffer.
"I'm sorry. I lost my mother as well, along with my father and little sister. They died in a fire a year ago." Lucas said. I looked up and saw his face looking down now. No way; he lost his entire family in one day? That's so sad. No wonder Bella told me he needed a friend. His life was just as rough as mine.
I reached out for his hand. At first I almost pulled back because when I touched it, it was ice cold but I figure it shouldn't matter. Lucas looked up when he felt my hand.
"I'm so sorry." I said as Lucas gave me a small smile. It was then I told myself that I want to be there for Lucas. He needs someone to talk to besides his family. I want to see him keep that smile on his face.
I don't know what happened but I felt a spark when my fingers started moving around his causing us both to pull back quickly. Once again, I was saved by my phone as an excuse when it started vibrating.
"Excuse me." I said as I took out my phone and answered the call. "Hello?"
"Oh don't tell me you've forgotten your best friend."
"Hey Anna!" Anna Reed's my best friend back in Olympia and she's an expert in fashion and gossip but not to make people look bad, just to get the updates on them.
"Oh now you remembered." Anna teased as I rolled my eyes. "So how have you been?"
"Uh great but I can't talk right now. I'm having lunch with someone." I said.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa wait, someone? As in with a boy?" Anna asked in surprised.
"Yeah." I said slowly.
"OMG Krystal," I heard Anna squealed. "Since when are you into boys?"
"Haven't I always been out with boys?" I asked.
"Yeah but you sounded seriously with this one." Anna said excitedly. "So tell me; is he cute, does he have a tattoo, is he smart, a jock, how ripped is he?" Okay how many questions can this girl come up with?
"Anna, I'd love to answer your millions of questions but I gotta go, seriously." I said.
"Okay but you better call me about all of it. I want to hear every detail about this guy." Anna said.
"Yeah okay bye." I said as I hung up. Just when I got off the phone, I heard a yelp and a clutter from a tray that landed on the floor. The whole cafeteria looked around and started laughing while taking their cell phones out pointing past my direction. I turned around and burst with laughter when I saw Miley on the floor covered in tuna fish dressing. I'd never pictured Miley as the clumsy type.
"Was that how you plan on ruining our lunch time? Because I think you made it better instead." I laughed as Miley started running out of the cafeteria in embarrassment followed by her friends. Oh man, now I got an idea what to draw later on.
"Well you can't have lunchtime without a little show right?" Lucas said to me as he and I laugh in agreement.
Lunch was over as the bell rang and everyone started heading out to their next class.
"Here, I'll take those." Lucas said offering to take my tray and dump it in the trash with his. He is such a gentleman. Why is he so perfect?
As he went his way to the trash area, I pulled out a piece of paper and pen out of my bag and wrote down my number. I looked over my shoulder and Lucas was making his way back to me. I put my pen away and turn around to face him.
"Um, here." I said. I nervously handed Lucas the sheet with my number on it. Lucas read it and was surprised. "Call me sometime or text which ever you prefer."
Lucas didn't say anything until he manages to say, "O-Okay." He smiled nervously.
"Well… bye." Without even thinking, I threw my arms around Lucas and hugged him. He must be very strong to have a body this hard. I felt his hard cold body when my arms wrap around his waist as I lay my head to his chest. Wow he feels so nice and he smells nice too. If only I could keep a clothing of his so I could keep his smell forever.
"Um… bye." Lucas said. He slowly started wrapping his arms around me making my heart jumping up and down like crazy even more when he had one hand on my back and the other one on my hair. Oh my gosh I love it when he feels my hair. I want to stay like this forever but unfortunately, class will start soon. We pulled apart and I blushed with happiness.
"I'll see you around then." I said. He just smiled at me as I turned away and head to my art class.
With two minutes to spare, I made it to class and saw Carly waiting for me and couldn't stop grinning when I sat down next to her.
"Well, how did it go?" Carly asked.
"I gave him my number and hugged him and he hugged me back." I blushed. Carly started squealing.
"Oh my gosh Krystal that's so amazing!" She said as hugged me.
"Tell me everything that happened." Carly demanded when she let go.
I told Carly everything that has happened between me and Lucas. She held her squeal at the very end when I was done as Ms. Waugh started the class by having us show our drawings. I pulled out my sketch book and found the drawing I chose to share.
"Whoa." Carly said when she saw my drawing of Lucas.
"I agree with Carly," Ms. Waugh said when she came over to our table and looked at my drawing. "Krystal, how were you able to draw something like this?"
"Inspiration I guess." I shrugged.
Yep, everything that has happened is definitely the best day of my life. Put a smiley face on that and it's official.
I know, seems long but it's worth the reading. Please review. :)
