Ella's pov:

Ding

I hear my phone go off from across my bed as I laugh out loud at the text.

I shake my head and let out a strange noise that I think was a giggle, but who knows.

Well, that was until I look at my door frame to see my sister standing there with her arms crossed.

She walks over and looks through my text messages, "You guys are clearly flirting." She smiles and hands me back my phone.

"Uhm.. no we aren't-..."

"Oh trust me honey, that was definitely flirting. Might as well say 'Oh my handsome, sexy Luke, I have always liked you since I first laid my eyes upon you, I knew it was love at first sight'." She says putting a hand over her forehead making her statement more dramatic.

I lightly shove her on her side while she smirks, "It is nothing like that."

"Keep telling yourself that, I can't believe mom thinks you're doing yoga, I mean out of anyone, you." She laughs which makes me glare at her.

"Excuse you, for your information I have a natural talent."

"A natural talent to fall on your face?"

I roll my eyes but laugh along with Ally because although I actually don't do yoga when I am with Luke, that would probably be true.

I couldn't do yoga to save my life.

Speaking of Luke, these last two weeks have been.. pretty awesome.

I mean, sadly Zander, Ashton, and Jake had to head off to college last week, so I haven't been seeing them lately.

But Luke takes me to see Julie, Damien, and I even got to meet a girl named Gianna who was also pretty sweet.

Luke has been nothing but an amazing friend.

But it scares me how much alike we are.

Well, except with my obsession with Disney.

But.. one day he decided to take me to the park and we kinda just talked, and to be honest, it was really nice.

Flashback To The Park

I laugh as Luke yet again throws a rock, horribly skipping it across the water.

"This sucks." He mutters as he watches his rock slowly sink to the bottom.

"Are you sure it just isn't you who sucks?" I say as he looks towards me and glares.

"Haha very funny Ella, you know what else would be funny? If I threw you in." Suddenly, he picks me up which causes a scream to come out of my mouth.

"No, no! Luke, please! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" This time, it was he who laughs as he sets me back down on the grass.

"That is so unfair."

"What's unfair? That you are scared of water?"

"What, no! That you can easily pick me up, no offense but.." I look at him trying to keep in my smile as he frowns.

"You're just jealous I am a sexy beast." He says and I almost choke on air.

How is that humanly possible?

I don't know.

"Sure you are." I say and walk up to the little path in the park.

He follows behind me and we just continue walking, admiring the parks beauty.

"So, how have you been lately? I know we just saw each other two days ago, but how's your mom?" He questions.

I just shrug my shoulders, "The same as always, I'm just slowly counting the days until I'm 18, I feel like freakin Rapunzel."

"Well if it makes you feel better, I think you are much more prettier than Rapunzel." I look away as I feel my cheeks heat up.

"What about you? Your brothers still super annoying?"

At this, he nods his head. "Oh trust me, they get worse every day."

"So, I'm planning staging my death the next time our families decide to have a dinner together again, would you like to join?"

"Oh one hundred percent yes, I should have fake blood somewhere.."

But at this, I slowly back away from him, "You own fake blood?"

"Yep."

...

"It's a long story." He grins scratching the back of his neck.

"Okay then.." I give him a skeptical look as we continue walking.

We fall into a comfortable silence as we just take in our surroundings.

"Ella, if you don't mind me asking, has there always been this tension between you and your mother?"

I let myself think for a minute, "Yeah, every since I was little to be honest. We just, viewed a lot of things differently."

"I like your view a lot more though, to be honest, when I first found out you were the daughter of THE Mr. Sanders, I was surprised. I guess I just jumped to conclusions and believed that you would be stuck up, I'm sorry."

But I just shake my head, "Don't worry about it Luke, plus if I would have met your brothers before I met you, I would have assumed the same thing, you know, obsessed with business and money, but when I look at you, I don't think of rich, money, or any of that, I think of just.. well you."

At this, he smiles, "I know this may seem kinda weird, but I'm kinda glad we crashed into each other, I can't even imagine not knowing you."

"I think about that too, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but thanks for crashing cars with me Luke." I laugh.

"The honor is mine, Ella." He laughs back and we continue our walk through the park.."

End of Flashback

"Earth to Ella Sanders." Ally says as she waves a hand in front of my face.

"Hmmm?" I draw out as I look at her.

"You have been spacing out while I was talking to you."

"Oh sorry, what were you saying?" But at this, she just laughs and rolls her eyes.

"Oh nothing.." she smirks and gives me a wink before leaving me in my own thoughts as she goes to her bedroom.

I wonder what she was thinking...

Or what am I even thinking...
