"Pride and Prejudice? Really?" Luke scoffed.
"What?" Stevie remarked lowering her book and turning her head to face him.
"You're just... Such a girl." Luke laughed.
Stevie had assumed that Luke had never read Pride and Prejudice or else he would've known that it in fact was a brilliant book. She thought he was quite similar to Mr. Darcy in the way that they were both very stubborn and mysterious. She still couldn't read him, but likewise as Mr. Darcy she knew that he did have a soft side.
But she was no Elizabeth, nor would she ever be. She definitely wished she was so she could have a Mr. Darcy in her life. But that wasn't possible.
"Thanks for noticing." Stevie sneered at him turning back to her book.
"I quite like Mr. Bingley." Luke remarked, still looking at Stevie intently.
"You've read this?" Stevie was shocked. She fully closed her book and placed it on her lap. She instantly regretted it though because she had lost her page. But it didn't matter, it wasn't her first time reading the book so she could pick up anywhere.
"Yes, well sort of. I had to for Year 11 English. I read the first bit then watched the movie or something." Like admitted.
"The movies nothing like the book. I prefer the BBC 1995 TV Series." Stevie told him. It was definitely her favourite mini TV series.
"Maybe I saw the TV Series then. Did Colin Firth play Darcy?" Luke asked Stevie, trying to figure out exactly what he watched.
"Yes. How did you not know the difference between a 2 hour movie and a 6 hour TV Show?" Stevie laughed at him and his lack of knowledge towards a subject she adored so much.
"It was quite along time ago." Luke defended his pride.
"Really? How long exactly?" Stevie teased him.
Luke laughed at her. He'd gotten a better understanding of when she was teasing him and not being rude. So it was easier for him to control his anger.
He studied her as she laughed alongside with him. He noticed that on the sides of her nose where they connected to her cheek she had some but barely any noticeable freckles however the bridge of her nose had a lot more. He also noticed how half her hair would be over one shoulder and the rest would be behind her back. Her dark hair looked dyed, Luke wasn't quite sure but from being around someone who constantly died they hair he had a good idea of what dyed hair looked like. He really liked her nose however. It was so similar to his that it curved up at the end. He thought it really suited her.
"I like your nose." Luke blurted out.
"My nose?" Stevie related shocked at his sudden outburst and such a random one at that.
"Yeah, it's like mine." Luke remarked.
"So you like it because it's similar to yours?" Stevie pondered. She saw a little bit of cocky, arrogant Luke coming back.
"No I didn't mean it like that. I just fucking like it OK?" He told her, getting fed up quickly with her tone. And this time he didn't want to apologize to her. He'd been trying to pay her a compliment and she twisted his words around and used the against him. Something that the media would do.
He didn't even looked at Stevie. He didn't care about what expression her face wore. He was upset. It was so hard to get close to her but nevertheless Ashton already had her number and he didn't. He knew that as soon as they arrived at Coachella, Ashton would ask Stevie to hang out. Just the two of them and that thought was eating away at Luke.
"I like your lip ring." Luke heard the voice next to him say. He didn't know why she said that nor what she meant by it. The outburst was so sudden and unexpected he didn't know what to say. He hoped his silence would make Stevie say something else.
"I think it's unique and different. It really suits you."
"Yeah?" Luke turned to her. He saw she was brightly smiling at him, obviously she was trying to make amends.
"Most definitely." She flicked half of her hair over her shoulder once again and ran her hands through the other half that rested on her left shoulder. "What made you decide to get it?"
"When I was younger I thought I was punk rock."
"Really?" Stevie scoffed. She thought Luke had a bit of edge to him, but he didn't look more intimidating than a penguin.
"Yeah. It's embarrassing I know." He blushed.
Stevie smiled at him, knowing the honesty in his confession.
"What about you? Any dirty little secrets?" He joked with her. She was too innocent to have any, Luke knew that. Nevertheless he enjoyed teasing and poking fun at her.
"I actually do." Stevie bravely spoke up. It wasn't really a secret because anyone who'd seem her in a bath suit had seen it. She just didn't like talking about the meaning behind it but hoped Luke wouldn't ask.
"What exactly babe?"
"I have a tattoo."
"Where?!" Luke exclaimed but as soon as he regained his self control his horny side kicked in as he winked at her.
"On my left side rib."
"That's neat." Luke said still shocked by the news.
"What's wrong?" Stevie asked him, she could tell something was up and hoped she didn't say anything to make Luke upset.
"I just can't believe you have a tattoo." Luke chuckled still at the idea.
"Why did you want to get matching ones?" She joked.
"No, that's too cheesy, even for me."
"Good." Stevie replied.
"I just thought you were a good girl, you know." Luke told her, turning to face her.
"Oh Luke, surely you must know: good girls are bad girls who've never been caught."

PPS. Pride and Prejudice is one of the best books ever written so I suggest you read it and watch the BBC 1995 mini TV series. Colin Firth is A M A Z I N G!
