Should I Tell? / l.h

Chapter 8

So here I am, waiting for Luke at Bert's, it's 1:15pm and I'm beginning to think that he's stood me up. It's now 1:30pm and still no show, no text, no nothing, I feel stupid for thinking that he would even show. I bet this was just some stupid joke of his to see if I was pathetic enough to show up, he's probably somewhere now laughing at my expense.

After 45 minutes of waiting I decide to leave, he's not going to show, if he was going to show he would have text by now and he hasn't so there's no point anymore, I might as well just go.

Just as I reach the door, the tall blonde I've been waiting for comes waltzing in, as if he has all the time in the world and I am stood there frozen, unable to move, staring at him.

"hey Lex, I'm sorry I'm so late, I caught up with some stuff and didn't realise the time" he could at least look like he's apologetic, he's not pleading a very good case at the minute

"you could have text me? Instead of letting me sit alone in this cafe for 45 minutes" he won't get away this one easily

"I know I should have I'm sorry, but I left my phone at Ashton's and I borrowed my mums phone to text you last night" that makes sense

"so that's why your number was unknown?"

"yeah sorry about that, I didn't realise how creepy it was until after I sent it" we both started laughing because it kind of was

"Sorry to interrupt but would you two like a table? We have one free?" we must have been in the way because it looked like she'd been waiting a while

"yes, we'd love a table thank you" Luke answered the waitress and gave me a cheeky smile as we followed the waitress to the table and I couldn't help but blush

"Here were are, can I get you any drinks?" when is she going to go? She's already annoying me and I barely know her

"yes please, we'll have two hot chocolates with marshmallows" I didn't know he could be so polite. And with that the waitress walked off, going to get our hot chocolates I assume. But I still don't know how I ended up sitting at a table with Luke? I was mad at him for showing up 45 minutes late but then he gave me that cheeky grin and I immediately forgot everything.

"So, whats so important that has you texting me at 1am?" my curiosity has come back as to why he wanted to meet up with me so urgently

"I just really need to talk you"

"about what?" I wonder whats so important

"you"
