my friends, and I’m already missing Liv. She texted me earlier, saying she would be gone a week and that some of the teachers were emailing her homework to do.
    Luckily, like her brother, she’s super smart and shouldn’t have trouble catching up. Since my dad left a few years ago, my mom has had to work constantly, so Liv and Luke have often helped me with my schoolwork.
    I don’t know what I would’ve done without them. Although I’m missing Liv, I have to say I’m looking forward to the time I’ll have alone with Luke.
    “So, there is this big party in Lebanon this weekend. A girl in my dance class invited me. She said they have some cute guys at their school, and she has parties all the time since her parents travel with their jobs,” Shelby says.
    “Hmm ... that sounds fun,” I say. I have no intentions of going since I have no desire to party or spend time with other guys. I’ll likely be giving them an excuse last minute.
    My stomach is in knots when Luke and I walk to his car after school. As soon as we’re inside, he grabs my hand.
    “It sucked not being able to touch you today.”
    “I found it kind of exciting,” I say.
    “I’m seeing a side I didn’t know you had, Kenzie.” He glances over and gives me a boyish grin.
    “I’ve been waiting to share it with you.” I turn my head toward the window and feel the squeeze to my hand. What’s gotten into me?
    We stroll inside Luke’s, and the second the door shuts, I’m being pushed against it. The thud of our backpacks hitting the floor echoes in the room, and in a flash, his eager tongue is in my mouth, tangling with mine.
    That hot feeling has returned and is spreading through me as my hands go into his mess of hair. He releases my mouth, breathless.
    “Kenz, why did I fight how I felt about you all these years?” he asks desperately.
    “Because you’re a confusing boy. We’ll have to make up for it.”
    He scoops me up into his arms, and I let out a squeal. “Luke, what are we doing?”
    “We’re going to make out on my bed. You owe me for all the torture today.”
    I giggle and lay my head to his firm chest.
    “Only because we’re best friends could you say that to me already.”
    “You’re probably right.” He kisses my forehead, and I didn’t know it was even possible to feel this much joy.
    Luke
    I drop Kenzie on my bed, and she giggles before stretching out. Picking up the remote to my stereo, I turn on music before I practically fall onto her. She’s giggling again as I bury my face against her neck. I lick her ear and tickle her waist.
    “Luke, no!”
    “You’re trapped this time. No throwing those knees up.” My hands go to work, and she’s laughing hard. It’s infectious, but I’m dying to kiss her again, so I cover her mouth with mine like I wanted to do a couple of weeks ago.
    We’re instantly serious as our tongues circle and stroke. She’s fisting my hair, and I don’t know how we’ll ever keep our hands off each other.
    I’m getting turned on fast, so I climb off of her and lie on my back. Rolling over, she rests her chin on her hands atop my chest.
    “What do you think Liv is going to say?” she asks.
    “She’s going to freak at first. I don’t understand it. She’s always been jealous of us being close, and I don’t know why. You’ve been her best friend forever.”
    “Actually, Luke, I’d never tell her, but I’ve always felt closer to you. I think because you’re more laid back like me, and we had to take up for each other a lot when she was being a brat, which was often when we were young. I love Liv, but I’ve always felt more of a connection with you.”
    I strain to lean up and kiss her.
    “What you and I have is natural, Kenz. We’ve never had to work at it, and I’ve always known I could count on you to be there for me, no matter what.”
    “Luke, that is sweet, but you’re the one who has always protected me.”
    I see the pain sweep her face. I wasn’t trying to bring
