4:30 A.M. Luke woke up because of an incoming call. Luke picked up the call; suddenly, Blake talked and said…

"Goodmorning, did I wake you up?"

"Yeah, but it's fine, my alarm will ring anytime soon anyway."

"Great, so I called you because I was planning on picking you up later."

"Sure, sure, what time?"

"I'll go there around 5"

"Alright then, I'll start preparing now. Bye."

"Okay, I love you."

Luke felt shy and said. "Yeah, yeah, Bye."

Luke turned the phone down and started preparing breakfast. Luke was eating when Blake arrived and knocked on his door. Luke opened the door for Blake and continued having breakfast.

"Did you have breakfast? Do you want some?" Luke asked.

Blake winked and said. "Hmm, but I want to eat something more delicious."

Luke blushed and started eating faster. Sheryn suddenly came out of her room and said to Blake. "I wonder if I could also taste that delicious thing you're talking about."

Blake flinched; acted like he didn't hear anything and Sheryn chuckles because of Blake's reaction. Minutes had passed, Luke and Blake left and headed to the cafè. As soon as they entered the cafè, Erina called Luke from behind, Blake turned around and saw Erina. 

"Oh, you came with Blake. Hello Blake" Erina said.

Luke smiled and asked. "Yeah, do you know each other?"

Erina didn't let Blake talk and said. "Yeah, my friend has a crush on him. Anyway, I'll get going now. Bye."

Erina left and Blake was surprised by Erina's reason. After a minute, Blake and Luke left and got in the car; suddenly, Luke noticed Blake and asked…

"Hey, are you alright? You seemed quiet since we saw Erina."

"Yeah, yeah, it's just that girl..." Blake said.

"Mhmm? What is up with Erina?"

"She's Dylan's ex-girlfriend."

Luke was shocked and speechless and suddenly remembered when he saw Erina and Dylan yesterday. After a few minutes of drive, Luke and Blake arrived and walked separate ways. Luke was walking up the stairs when he suddenly heard someone talking. Luke sneakily peeked and he was shocked when he saw and heard Erina and Dylan saying...

"I saw them at the cafè this morning."

"Did you see something weird?"

"Nothing really, they just came together."

"Hmm okay, just tell me if you see something weird."

"Okay."

Luke suddenly felt betrayed by Erina and his tears slowly flowed and decided not to attend his classes. Luke headed to the park nearby; thinking about what he heard and what he saw. Luke texted Blake saying…

"Blake, are you busy? I'm at the park nearby. Don't worry, you don't have to come if you're busy. I miss you by the way."

Blake was surprised when he saw Luke's message and said to his mind. "Luke never texted 'I miss you' before." Blake immediately excused himself to the professor and left. Blake was rushing until he arrived and saw Luke crying.

"Luke? What's the matter? Why are you crying?"

"I heard Erina and Dylan talking about us. I think Erina is teaming up with Dylan. I really felt disappointed, Erina is the only one who talks to me when I'm having a hard time but after that, I don't think I could trust her anymore." 

Blake hugged Luke and comforted Luke. "It's alright, you still have me. I'll stay by your side forever, promise."

Luke cried on Blake's shoulder while Blake continuously pats Luke's head.

"Thank you, Blake. I love you... so much."
