That Way

"Yeah! Y'know, since we do debate together and I've had a crush on him since the sophomore year it would only be realistic."

"Aw, that sounds so cute! Look, we got to pay but we'll catch up, alright?"

"Hm? Oh yeah! Course! Bye!"

"I swear she talk one more time and I kill her" Kristen balls her fists up and they continue walking to the cash.

"Don't be dramatic. We can't have you going to juvie again."

.......

"Why aren't you the cutest little thing" (y/n) giggled at Luke who had gotten his hair cut.

"Stop, I look so dumb" he blushed and pulled his hoodie up, pouting like a little kid.

One day my kids are going to be making the same face.

"You got everything ready for the dance? It's tomorrow"

"Yup. My suit, shoes, m'lady" he kissed your hand and you laugh nervously, blushing like crazy.

"God, Dunphy, you're such a flirt" you punch him and giggle. "You wanna head back home?"

"Yes, I am in desperate need of  shower and  nap"

"The first one more than the other"

......

"Hey, (y/n)" Phil said with a smile. "How are you?"

"I'm good! Yourself?"

"Oh! I forgot to tell you but I've been selling houses like crazy! I think it's the most I've started since I started working"

"Phil! That's amazing! Does the family know? We need to celebrate"

"What do I not know?" Claire pranced in. 

"Oh, Phil-" Phil covered your mouth and smiled at his wife. "Nothing, honey"

Claire narrowed her eyes. "Have you seen Luke?"

"Yeah, he's taking a shower or he's napping"

The mother nodded and ran a hand through her hair, organizing some papers on the desk. "Are you eating with us, (y/n)?"

"If you'll have me" she joked. "I'll be upstairs if you need anything"  you excused yourself but stuck around in case Phil said something about her or Luke. 

Haley was in her room picking up some things and pulled you in when you pasted by her door. 

"Girl!" she whispered and closed her door. "What is up with you?"

"I beg your pardon?" (y/n) blinked. "Why are you here? Don't you have a house or something?"

"No," she scoffed. "I'm staying here for a little while. Anyways, what's going on with you and my brother?"

"Luke? Nothing?" (y/n) furrowed her brows. "Why? Did he say something about me?" you knew Luke was closer with Haley and would probably come to her fro girl advice but she had to say it in a way where she didn't sound suspicious. 

"Yeah, he did" (y/n)'s eyes went big. "He said he was taking you to the Spring-a-ding-fling. Is this true?" she put on her mom face and she looked exactly like Claire. She gulped. 

"Yes?"

Haley squealed and hugged you. "I'm gonna have another sister!"

"Another-what are you talking about? We're going as friends" the teen rolled her brown eyes.

Haley threw her head back laughing and grabbed (y/n)'s shoulder. "Friends don't look at each other the way you do"

"(y/n)? Haley! Stop hogging her!" Luke ran in and pulled you towards him. The older sister goves you a look and you bit your lip. "You wanna play video games?"

"Yeah, sure"

.....

"Don't you blow dry your hair when you come out the shower? You look like a wet dog"

"No, cause if I do It's gonna get all big and poofy and I'm gonna look like a poodle" the DVD slid into the slot and the console started humming. 

"Poodles are cute. You could try it for a change"

"Hardy har har" Luke said sarcastically and sat next to you on his bed. Water droplets dripped down on his shoulders from his curls onto his shirt. "Did Haley say something to you?"

(y/n) bit the inside of her cheek. "No."

"I have a hard time believing that"

 I'm in love with you and I don't know what to do.

"She has mom brain and she's still clinging on to her teenage years. It's nothing to worry about, Lukie. What game did you put in?"

"Minecraft. We never finished that cottage you wanted to build"

The screen loaded and MINECRAFT in big bold letters and Luke got his controller ready, handing one to his best friend. 

"I totally forgot about that." You're eyes scanned Luke's room even though you've slept in this exact spot and know every nook and cranny. On his mirror frame hung a picture of you two from the day you first met; sand all over your hands, Luke's curly head of har a mess, plastic toys all over the place. "You kept that photo of us?"

"Hm?" he turned his attention to you. "Oh yeah. I looked through my mom's scrap book and took it out. Let's hope she doesn't notice"

(y/n) bit back a smile and scooted closer to her best friend, getting a whiff of head and shoulders and getting to see clearly the water droplet on teh tip of a curl about to splat down on his pajama shirt. 

I hope we last.

"You smell really nice" 

Luke glanced at her and blushed.

"Thanks"
