Nice Strings one-shot by Summer Cheng (@SummerCheng37)

    Description:  Luka's guitar strings break, so he goes to buy new ones.  He notices this adorable blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl at the register.  What happens when he attempts to flirt with her?

      

      Luka pulls out his guitar and starts to play a new piece.   The strings break and fall out.

       "Already?"  He groans.

        He is not happy about this. Goodness, right in the middle of the best part too.  He grabs his wallet and heads to the store. 

     

     "Hello, Welcome to Chole's  Instrument Palace."

       Luka nods his head. He is in a bad mood, so he misses the manager's stares.  

         The manager thinks he is hot.

      

         Luka finds the items he needs and approaches the register. It is then, he notices her.  By her, he means the adorable blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl.  Who is she?     

        "You all set then?"

       "Yes, I suppose."

        "Hmm, what do we have here?  Ah, yes, it is the best brand.  Oh, and nice strings."

              "I beg your pardon?"

              "The guitar, I believe you play it."

             "Yes, but how did you know? "

           "Not everyone comes in here to buy brand new guitar strings."

                "That will be $15.55 total for the strings and the picks."

                  "Oh, just throw in your phone number, and we will call it even,"   Luka says as he hands her a $ 20.00                       

                 

                The girl rolls her eyes.

                "Sure, whatever you say, man."

                She hands him his receipt, the change, and a small sheet of paper with a few hearts on it, along with her name and number.

                Luka blushes. She winks at him.

              "So, when are we going out?"

             "What?"  

            "I am offended that you hesitate. I  mean I gave you my number." The girl whose name tag reads Chole Bougerious states.

          "I will see you tomorrow. Is 3:30 pm, good?"

          "Make it 8 pm, I get off around then."

            "Sure thing, Chole."

             "Sir, might I have your name?"

            "It is Luka, Luka Cuffaine."

           "Okay, see you tomorrow, Luka."


      Luka goes back home and attaches the new strings to his guitar. As he plays, his sister Juleka notices the new strings.

      "Why are you grinning so big for? "

     "Oh, I happen to have a date tomorrow."

      "Wow, brother!  That is fantastic!  Do I know her?''

      "I do not think so. She works at the music store. Her name is Chole Bougerios. She gave me her number."

     "Cool, you sure know how to pick them, bro."

        Juleka walks off.  


Time skip to the next day...

    It is almost 8 pm.

   Luka arrives early with a flower in one hand and his guitar case in the other.

       Chole gets off a few minutes later as he got there right at 7:55 pm.

       "Hey!" 

    "Hey, yourself!"

       Luka hands her the flower.  He watches as she sniffs it and smiles.

          He holds the guitar case in one hand and puts his other hand in his pocket.

           

*Author's note: What did you expect it is only their first date?

            Chole and Luka go to the park.  Luka plays the guitar as Chole listens.

         "I must say those strings are rather nice. Where ever did you get them?" Chole teases him.

         "You know very well where missy.  It happens to be this pretty lady with blonde hair and blue eyes who sold them to me yesterday."

            The rest of their date was splendid.    

      the end...

   bye-bye, little owlets!

-Summer out!
