"I can do this. I can do this. I can do this!" Luke said repeatedly in his head. The only reason he came to the party was to talk to Sierra- his crush.

Ashton saw the constant staring and nervousness Luke got around her, and he walked over to Luke, knowing what was going to happen

"Go talk to her. She's looking at you" Ashton said.

"But I'm too nervous.... It's just- arghh I don't know! I feel like she doesn't like me" Luke said, his gaze drifting back to Sierra and the gold dress she was wearing.

"You'll never know until you talk to her! Look. Did Liz raise a boy too afraid to talk to someone? No. Now get out there and talk to her!" Ashton remarked, pushing Luke closer to her. Luke abruptly walked away from her direction and said
"But my mum did! I'm too afra-"

his sentence was cut off by Mikey- drunk, giggly, and stumbling around. Mikey was holding two cups, and he handed Luke one, to which Luke drank quickly.

"Just go use the pick-up *hiccup* line I *hiccup* taught you- it works *hiccup* every second or third *hiccup* time-"

Calum noticed the commotion and came over to scout the drama

"What's hippity- happenin peeps? How you guys liking the party?"

"Well, it's going-" Luke started the sentence but ash cut him off

"Luke is too afraid to talk to Sierra. Can you tell him to go over and just talk to her?"

"LUKE! YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON SIERRA?? AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?!" Calum yelled

"CALUM! Not so loud! Please! I'm just nervous she won't like me the same or she'll think I'm weird" Luke said, his arm squeezing the other.

Mikey thrust the other drink he was holding into Luke's hand and told him to go (which was followed by more hiccups and gibberish)

Luke said
"I suppose I could talk to her about music? Or movies? Or- ughh! I just don't know!" He took a sip of the "death after noon" punch and cringed.

"No wonder Mikey was drunk- this thing has 3 bottles of vodka and 2 of pineapple rum."

He held his drink to his chest and walked to Sierra.

He walked up and tripped- spilling the drink all over her.

"Oh god! I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry!" He remarked, his light turquoise eyes shimmering in the lights

"Please, let me go get paper towels- I really feel horrible" He ran off and came back holding paper towels and napkins.

"It's fine! Luke, really!"

"It isn't the first time it's happened- I wouldn't worry about it" Sierra said, a warm smile spread across her face.

"Are you sure? I could ask Calum if his sister has a shirt you could borrow"

"No, really; it's fine, I swear"

"Just stay and talk to me- that's all I need" she said, a sly smirk crossing her face.

"I-uhm i-i-i ok?" Like said, shocked by her forwardness

"Do you like musies? I mean- I mean music or movies?" He said, his turquoise eyes gazing into hers

"Why yes- yes I do like musies as a matter of fact" she said chuckling at the dorky boy in front of her.

"If you like movies- and I'm sorry if this is too forward, but- if you like movies, maybe we could go see one, next week?" He asked

"Why I would love to Lucas" she said, that same smile spreading across her face

He went into the bathroom and told the boys what happened. Once they left, he quietly muttered to himself

"I can't believe that just worked! Mum would be so disappointed of she knew I spilled a drink on a girl just to talk to her"
He smiled and walked out of the bathroom.
