"Here. Sorry." Lukas said handing me a screwdriver. "Sorry, I forgot you don't care much for beer."
"It's okay." I said taking a sip.
"Alright, so." He said. I walked over to one of the towers of cd's in his room and sat down. His boxers were showing above his pants and I couldn't stop staring. He looked so hot! I couldn't even beleive I was in his apartment, let alone his bedroom. He pulled a cd off of the rack and held it up. "You're borrowing this and you have to promise me you'll give it a shot." He said. He walked over to me on his knees.
"What is it?" I asked as I took it from him.
"It's Incubus. Old shit though. I think you might like it." He said.
"Maybe. . ." I said.
He laughed. "Okay, so you'd probably dig their newer stuff more, but just listen to it." He said.
I smiled. "I promise."
"All the way through." He said.
"All the way through. I promise." I said looking at it.
"Cool. Put it in your purse so you don't forget it." He said.
I laughed and put it in my purse. I took another sip of my drink. It was really strong.
"Does it need more orange juice?" He asked.
I nodded. "I think so."
"Let me add more to it." He said. He took the drink from me and walked out of the room. I picked up my phone and sent my sister a text message telling her I was in Lukas' bedroom. She had heard me go on and on about how hot he was. Plus, I had to tell SOMEONE! I slid my phone back into my purse and took the drink back from him.
"Did you call someone?" He asked.
"Oh no. I was just checking the time." I said.
"Oh, it's on the vcr." He said pointing.
"Oh." I said as my phone beeped letting me know I had a new message. I just ignored it.
He looked at me confused. He took his phone out of his pocket and looked at it as my phone beeped again. "I think thats you." He said.
"Oh yeah. It's probably just Brody telling me a dumb joke." I lied.
"Well, share it with me." He said taking a sip of his beer.
I giggled nervously as I took the phone out of my purse. I checked the message. It was my sister, as I thought. All she wrote was, "Did you sleep with him?!" I laughed.
"What did he say?" He asked.
I tried my hardest to think of a joke as quickly as possible. All I could think of was a stupid one my little cousin told me years ago.
"Why did the cookie go to the doctor?" I asked.
He laughed. "He felt crummy. That's what he wrote?"
I started laughing and nodded.
He gave me a strange look. "Tell him his jokes suck." He said smiling. "I was expecting a good dirty one."
I just shrugged and took a huge sip of my drink.
"Tomorrow is going to be so cool." He said.
I started laughing again. I felt silly, but I couldn't get the dumb joke out of my head.
"Blair, The White Stripes will be in OUR store." He said.
"Brody's pretty excited too." I said.
"Everyone should be!" He said. "Jack White is awesome." He got up, walked back to his rack of cd's and picked up another one. He walked back over to me and handed it to me. It was The White Stripes.
"Okay." I said. I put it in my purse. My phone beeped again.
"Another joke?" He asked.
"Probably." I said. I took the phone out of my purse again and looked at it. Of course, it was my sister again. She was asking me if he was how I had imagined him. I laughed. I started to feel tipsy too as I stood up. I realized I had finished my drink. Suddenly, I remembered a dumb joke that Sage had told me once. It was a little better than the cookie one, so I told him it.
"Okay, so there's these two little kids. A boy and a girl." I pretended to read off the phone. "It's halloween and they dress up as Jack and Jill. They got to his womans house for candy and she asks them what they are suppose to be."
He nodded.
"They tell her. She tells them Jack and Jill are not black. They go home frustrated and change so they are dressed as Romeo & Juliet. They go back to the womans house. She asks them what they are suppose to be once again. They tell her and once again, she tells them Romeo & Juliet were not black. So, they go home frustrated and walk to the womans house totally nude. She is speechless and dares to ask what the hell they are suppose to be. The little boy tells her, We are M&M's. One with nuts and one without."
Lukas started laughing really hard, which made me laugh. I thought the joke was so stupid, but I couldn't stop laughing.
"You crack me up." He said walking over to me. I smiled and tried hard not to laugh. He got a serious look on his face and placed his hands on my cheeks. He leaned forward and started kissing me. After a few seconds, he pulled away quickly. "Oh my god. I'm so sorry." He said. He took my glass from me. "Let me get you a refill." He walked to his doorway and turned around. "Sorry I drink and then I want to kiss everyone."
I giggled. "It's okay."
He walked out of the room. I sat down on the bed quickly and sent my sister a text telling her he kissed me.
