JULIES POV
I shut my locker door and jumped “hey” he smiles at me “daa normal people don’t do that, and ghost definitely shouldn’t, what are you doing here?” Despite my words I can’t help but to smile at the dorky look on his face.
“We need to talk about what song we’re going to play tonight, I was thinking…Great?” He looks unsure it’s kind of funny to see his usually cocky attitude look so unsure, I was about to answer but then I remembered no one else can see Luke and I don’t want to look insane for talking to myself, “hold up” I whisper taking my phone out “your just gonna take a phone call wile we’re talking, do you know how rude that is” he look offended, I cut him off with a smile he’s such a dork “HEY thanks for calling, otherwise people might think I’m talking to myself” I emphasize the last part and he smiles “right, nice” he takes a step closer to me,
“No but ya, I think Great is a…great choice”, his eyes soften “sweet well, that pretty much just what I wanted to talk to you about, so” he gives me a sheepish smile and I can’t help but to be a little disappointed that that was it “oh, ok” I feel a little awkward, “uh actually no there is one more thing I wanted to talk to you about, it’s, look I know I’m not the easiest person to work with, but, I-I w-wanted to tell you that I think you make me a better writer” his stutter was kind of adorable, I can’t help but to blush slightly at that thought, “I think we make each other better” I look him in the eyes and see a flicker of something I don’t quite Recognize, “you know what, why don’t you, why don’t you just ditch school today, let’s go rehearse” wow he’s stuttering a lot today I wonder why, he’s usually so confident, “what no, no I promised dad school first” I had to close my eyes cause that look in his eye was going to make me break and skip with him, “right your at school first, now your leaving to go rehearse” he does this cute thing when he shoved his hands into his pocket and gave me these big round puppy dog eyes, his voice all of a sudden became breathy and just above a whisper “come on I can’t do this without you” I was struggling not to say yes and I was running out of excuses “I, I can’t (I let out a exasperated sigh cause I didn’t want to use this excuse, I told Nick I would be his dance partner” before Luke could respond we heard Nick call to me and walk over “a-and he’s heading this way, gotta go bye” wow I sound disappointed I really gotta work on the inflection in my voice.
“Hey” I knew Luke was about to be a idiot by the look on his face “well don’t you look Sharp” he stood over his shoulder and looking at me with this unreadable look, “so you ready for our big performance” Nick smiles but I can’t seem to stop looking at Luke “ya, we’re gonna do great” I push my hair behind my ear, and Luke is looking between Nick and I, “I’m glad your confident, even after three classes I still think I got worse”, Luke’s face drops a little bit and I realize he’s mocking Nick, “it’s a good thing I got my secret weapon” Luke’s eyes go wide with mischief and he pops his tongue at me “uh-oh I think somebody has a crush on Julie” he smiles “shut up” I respond to Luke, I realize what I did and stammer to fix it, and I look over and Luke is grinning and waiting for me to fix this one, “umm, I mean Shut uppp” I say in a slightly flirtatious way, trying to save myself, “no seriously, Molina, I-I-I’m nothing without you” he stuttered out and I fight the cringe at his words and stutter, I can’t pay much attention to him though cause Luke stood behind and mocked his movements, lip syncing his words, with this pouty lip, “pshh, no, no your gonna do fine” I push his shoulder and for some reason Luke’s face drops a moment before resuming his mocking, “see you in there?” I say desperately wanting out of this conversation, “ya I’ll be the guy trying not to make us look stupid” he backed away and so did Luke until Nick was gone, then Luke walked back up to me, with a picking tone mixed with something I can’t quite understand, “well he is just to cuttee” Luke says pointing behind him,
“Boundaries, Ill see you after school” I role my eyes and begin to walk away, “guess we’ll just have to carry you tonight” “JUST LIKE WE ALWAYS DO!” he yells the last part down the hall and I can’t help but smile and role my eyes, “I know your smiling” he yells and I smile more, Luke just has that affect on me, “kill it on the dance floor!” I kind of wish he was going to be there with me instead of Nick, I shake my head of those thoughts and try to just focus on class.
