Dylans POV:

i wake the next morning and smile to myself.

i get out of bed quickly and pull on my uniform shirt and some shorts, along with some combat boots.

i braid my hair and spray some Victorias Secret glitter stuff in it and head off to work.

i play on my phone for most of the walk, when im not thinking about my date with Luke in a few days

i reach the cafe' and enter through the back way.

Luke and Ashton are goofing off when i enter the kitchen. go figure

"Hey Dylan" Ashton greets me and hugs me quickly

"hi" i smile and turn to Luke

"Hey there" he smiles awkwardly. this must be weird for him.

"im gunna take the register today" i say and run up to the counter before they can protest

the day goes by slow, only selling 30 drinks

at the end of the shift, the three of us go out and get dinner

we end up getting fast food again.

"i dont like thridwheeling so im out" Ashton chuckles as we walk through the park i nod and say bye as he walks away

"so...." i say, as the awkwardness starts to settle in around us

"so" he says back

"this is so awkward for some reason i dont even know why" i giggle and he nods

"i understand. its weird because we both know how we feel about one another. " he explains and i nod

"can i show you something?" he asks and i nod

he pulls me over to a small pond and sits us down on the damp grass.

the moon is rising in the sky and the dim park lights, make the whole place look magical.

i look out at the water, i can see our relfections. Luke and i, side by side. just admiring the view

"its so beautiful" i smile

"yeah, ive always liked this time on night because it makes the whole place look like a fairytail to me" he replies

"how long have you known about this place?" i ask

"ever since i was little, my mom used to take me and my brothers here when we were little" he explains, smiling at the memory and i nod

"well i can see why you like it so much" i smile

"yeah it calms me down when i get stressed or something" he shrugs 

"yeah" i reply, 

i look over at Luke and see hes already looking at me. his eyes flicker from my lips to my eyes and he slowly begins to lean in. i flutter my eyes closed as i feel his hot breath fan across my face.

i wait a few seconds for him to make a move but he doesnt. i open my eyes and see he has pulled back and is looking the other way

embarassment floods through me. as if he would even kiss me

i sigh and look the other way

"we should get going" he says quietly and  i nod, not looking at him

he doesnt walk me back to my apartment being its across the street and im disappointed.

I climb the stairs and enter the apartment. i dont acknowledge Carly and walk straight for my room.

i strip of my clothes and pull on some sweats with a tank top.

i plug my phone in and climb into bed, with Luke flooding my thoughts

why would he lead me on like that and then embarass me? he likes me the way i like him. doesnt he?

i fall asleep with doubts filling my dreams
