Chapter 18
I slowly shut my eyes before feeling someone grab my arm. I sit up and see Lukas. "Hey, you okay?" He looks at me and wipes my tears. I sniff then hug him tightly. He holds me close and I rest my head on his bare chest. All I do is listen to his heartbeat. "..." After a minute, he pulls away and grabs the photo, "Is this why you were crying?" He asks. I nod and he hugs me again. I shut my eyes as I lay my head on his bare chest again. I silently sigh and start to calm down as I listen to his heart beat. His heart is stead and loud but also kinda fast... I smile and continue to lean on him. "Hey, Jesse?" Lukas asks and I move my head to look up at him. "Could you um... let me get dressed?" He asks with a red face. Thats when I realized he is only wearing a towel. I nod before covering my face and running downstairs. After a few minutes, I walk back to my room and I can hear Jay and Lukas talking.
"So, Lukas. What did you want to talk about?" I hear Jay ask.
"Well, I need some advice. I have a girlfriend. We both know that but... I think I'm starting to have feelings for someone else." Lukas says with a sweet tone in his voice.
"Oh yeah? Who woulda guessed?" Jay says in a sort of sarcastic tone.
"Jay! I'm being serious. The girl I like is sweet. She is kind and smart. She is one of the best people in my life and I just don't know how to tell her I like her..." As Lukas says that, I put my hand over my chest. I could feel my face turning red and my heart is racing. After a second I press my hand against my face, 'what are you thinking Jesse? He could never like a girl like you. He is probably likes Jennifers best friend or something like that...'
"Lukas, look at me. We both know who you like. If you want my advice, tell her at the musical or tell her whenever you feel you are ready! Just... don't forget to break up with Jennifer."
"...Okay."
I slowly walk in as Jay walks out and I see Lukas, sitting on my bed and blushing like a total idiot. He looks at me and smiles, "Would you like to watch a movie?" I nod a little before getting in my bed. Lukas pulls out his phone and puts The Little Mermaid on then he lays next to me and holds me close. I couldn't even focus on the movie... All I could focus on was Lukas and how close we were cuddling. I look at Lukas' phone then I move my body a little and I look at Lukas. He looks at me and I could feel my face turning red. He blushes and smiles a little. I look away, embarrassed then he puts a hand on my face and makes me look at him. "You okay Jesse?" He asks. I nod then I hear the movie turn off. For a few minutes we just lay side by side, looking at one another. I shut my eyes and silently sigh. "..." I turn over and stare at my wall. "Jesse?" I feel Lukas sit up and grabs my arm. I look at him and bite my lip. "I can go sleep on the couch if you'd like..." I watch him as he starts to leave my room, "..."
