You Make Me Feel...[Lukas]

[Andi Thalis]

OOC :: this starts off in the dorms, but seeing as I don’t want to make two threads for this, let’s just say it started there and it’ll move downtown in a couple replies.

Finally.

After months of dancing around, sleeping together, and him being gone, Lukas was taking her out on a nice date.

Fixing her hair before doing anything, she took her time getting ready, wanting everything to be perfect. He was her boyfriend now, had been for a couple days, and Andi couldn’t have been happier with anyone else. When they were around other people, he was tall and big and intimidating, but when they were alone, whether it was her bedroom or his or the library, he was sweet, holding her close and treating her like the princess he always thought she was.

Smiling fondly, she finished her makeup and slid on her dress and heels, looking in the mirror to make sure that she looked presentable. She looked downright sexy, and she knew that Lukas would really like it. Grabbing her purse and jacket, she walked out into the common room, avoiding her roommates, and out into the hall.

Walking next door, she knocked gently and smiled when someone answered the door. “Hi, is Lukas home?” she asked, and she walked inside when the person moved aside for her. Following the pointed finger, Andi walked to his door and knocked gently, waiting for Lukas in her pretty dress and coat.

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas had a date tonight. A real date with Andi. Though Lukas would never admit it, he was actually pretty excited to not only take Andi out on the town, but to be seen hand in hand with the love of his life. He liked the idea of guys checking out Andi and knowing that she was his.

He decided that for once he was going to look nice. Presentable. So he took off his baggy gym shorts and white t-shirt and decided to dig through his closet for something his mother had packed along with his stuff. He put on what he believed would look nice together.

A white collared shirt, obviously, it seemed the easiest to match with.
Black dress pants with some stripes and shit on it.
A vest? Why the fuck not. He was dressing up, might as well go all out.

Slicking his hair to the side, Lukas looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but smirk a bit. It was such a weird reflection. A weird thing to look at. A clean and respectable Lukas Wolf, but he liked it.

Hearing the soft knock, Lukas blew a kiss to himself in the mirror, stuffed his pockets with his wallet and nick knacks and opened the door to see his girlfriend.

"Holy shit Andi, you look fucking hot!" Lukas said loudly, grabbing Andi and pulling her against him. His outside may have looked classy, but Lukas still had a lot to work on to get the inside to match the outside.

Placing a kiss on her forehead, Lukas smiled and looked into those beautiful green eyes that he loved so much, "So what did you want to do baby?"

[Andi Thalis]

When Lukas opened the door, Andi smiled widely as her eyes widened. Lukas all dressed up was a sexy Lukas. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close, and she slid her arms around his neck as she hugged him. He looked amazing, but he still had some things to work on to match the outside. She chuckled and looked up at him with sparkling green eyes. “You look really handsome, Lukas,” she said softly, pecking his lips.

With his question, her soft smile widened. “I was thinking dinner and a movie,” she said, linking her arm with his and tugging him into the common room. His roommates were nowhere to be seen. “My friend let me borrow her car tonight, since I’m wearing a dress, and we can split the dinner and the movie between the two of us.” She linked her fingers with his, a content feeling filling her at the way their fingers hooked together. “I’m feeling Italian, and maybe we can go see one of those action movies you like?”

Walking out of the dorms with his hand in hers, she led him to the Jeep waiting for them, a gift from her friend to use for the night for “snagging such a hottie”, as Rachel had put it. Smiling, she handed the keys to Lukas. “You can drive tonight. Just don’t wreck,” she said happily as she watched him, the happiest she had been in a very long time. She knew that her mother would approve of Lukas, and eventually her father would as well, but for now, it was just the two of them, finally together and having a date.

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas smiled and nodded along with Andi's dinner and a movie idea, he didn't mind doing those things. It made sense that their first date would be a typical traditional date, and Lukas didn't mind it at all. But when the brunette suggested them splitting the bill, Lukas' furrowed his brows and shook his head. "Fuck that." He said rudely, "Sorry," he corrected himself, "I mean no. You're not going to pay for any of this." Lukas said sternly, and wouldn't allow for Andi to argue back. "It's our first date together," Lukas said as Andi linked her fingers with his, and led the way, "You're not going to spend a single penny."

"By the way Andi, did I tell you that you look freaking gorgeous tonight?" Lukas asked as they made their way out of the dorms.

When Andi suggested Italian food, Lukas just shrugged and smiled at her, "Whatever you want baby, food is food to me, and action sounds pretty awesome but I kinda wanna watch Project X, or 21 Jump Street, I'm kinda wanna see a comedy, if that's alright." He shrugged again, before excitedly grabbing the keys.

"A Jeep eh?" Lukas said with a smirk and a chuckle. "Wanna go off roading?" He said with a laugh, and a soft elbow jab after Andi told him not to wreck her friend's car.

"I'm just kidding baby, so where to?"

So off to the restaurant they went. Lukas behind the wheel and Andi sitting next to him. This was perfect. Lukas loved driving and he loved having Andi, a beautiful girl, around, he couldn't remember a time in his life when he had been so happy with his life.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Lukas could see that there were not only a few older couples there but there were also a few younger college boys. Tiny little frat boys, Lukas thought as he led Andi through the restaurant towards their table. He would have been quiet and happy walking towards his table if it wasn't for those stupid obnoxious frat boys. Lukas didn't mind people starring and drooling over Andi, he knew it would happen, and he prided himself in it, but when the blonde frat boy whistled at Andi as they walked past Lukas stopped, and turned around.

"Wait here once second babe, I'll be right back," Lukas whispered to Andi, before kissing her cheek and walking back to the table.

Lukas wasn't stupid, he wasn't going to start a brawl here with all these boys. He didn't want to ruin the date either, but he was never the type to let things like that slide. Arriving at the boys table, he could see the fear in all of their eyes. Lukas was a big guy, and he knew he was. He knew how to use his size to intimidate others. "Which one of you whistled?" Lukas asked the boys quietly, and watched as they all stumbled over their words, and played dumb.

Leaning over the table now, Lukas whispered so only the boys at the table would hear him, "Well whichever one of you fuckers did it, don't do it again. I will rip your tongue out of your mouth so you won't be able to make another fucking sound every again. Got it?" When they all nodded in agreement, Lukas made his way back over to his beautiful date.

Looking over his shoulder as he walked, Lukas thought with all his might as he made one of the brunette frat boys punch the blonde whistler in the face. Oh the benefits of being a meta, thought to himself with a chuckle.

"Now where were we?" Lukas said with a smile, and protectively put his arm around Andi's tiny waist.

[Andi Thalis]

Andi smiled when he refused and insisted on paying for the whole night, and it was just that. Andi was a headstrong girl, independent and stubborn, but when it came to Lukas, she knew when to bend and when to stand tall, and this was one of those bending moments. “You did, handsome,” she said with a smile to his compliment, a delicate pink tinting her cheeks. She listened to his words, laughing softly when he joked about the Jeep, and she slid inside as he jingled the keys.

“A comedy it is. And we’re headed to The Italian Grove.”

As he drove, she linked their fingers together again, and that content feeling lit in her stomach again, making her feel very warm and very satisfied with how the night was progressing. The sky was clear, which allowed the full moon and stars to shine down on the pair as they drove into town. When they parked, she slid out and her eyes sought his before looking over his shoulder to see the group of college boys watching her. Paling a bit, for a couple were Ethan’s friends, she took Lukas’s offered hand and followed him into the restaurant.

Looks were thrown their way, towards the tall man and his slightly smaller brunette lady who looked dazzling, and Andi took them in stride, knowing that some jealous stares were thrown their way in regard to Lukas, who looked like a million dollars. She started to smile…until she heard the whistle. All color left her face, memories of her days with Ethan crossing her mind, and she looked at Lukas when he left her side. Suddenly feeling cold, she went the rest of the way to their table and sat in the little private booth, looking up as the waiter approached.

“Two waters, please,” she said shakily, spreading her hair over her bare shoulders with trembling fingers. Why did the past have to come and ruin this date? The water was set, and Andi looked for her boyfriend amongst the tables. She found his broad back over by the frat boys, the smaller men trembling before the tense form of Lukas. While she was proud that he wasn’t resorting to fighting tonight, she just wished he would come over to her side and comfort her.

She got her wish when he turned around and came towards her, smiling at her like she was the only woman for him. He sat beside her and she leaned into him gratefully. “I got water since I didn’t know what you wanted,” she told him, shivering from the chill of the past on her shoulders. “Lukas…I know those boys. Those are Ethan’s fraternity brothers. I met them when Ethan and I first started dating.”

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas sat down, and placed his large hand gently on the small of Andi's back. He took a sip from his water while he listened to Andi explain how she had met those guys before. Placing the cup back down, Lukas looked back over to the table of frat boys and watched as they were all escorted out of the restaurant for causing a ruckus. "It's okay babe, they shouldn't be a problem anymore." He said with a smirk and turned his attention back to the beautiful brunette.

"Goddamn, I can't believe I got so lucky," He said as his eyes looked Andi up and down. "No wonder those douchebags were drooling over you so hard," he chuckled, and took another sip from the water, "But still no one degrades my baby like that, I had to take care of it. I hope it didn't piss you off though babe, I restrained myself. I really did. But did you see the look on that blonde douches face when the brown haired guy punched him? Hilarious!" Lukas let out a deep low laugh. "And the brown haired one was all like, What happened? I didn't do that! And in my head I was like, Yeah cause I did that bitch!" Lukas let out a bellow again, and took another sip.

After laughing a bit more, Lukas kissed Andi on the cheek then her forehead. "I love you Andromeda, and I would kick anyone's ass who gave you a hard time. Maybe that was a bit much... But you know that was very mild for me. And just forget about Ethan, he was a loser. A homo. Which I still don't understand. What the fuck he was thinking. Just a fucking retarded homo is what he is. Hopefully they'll run back to their queen and tell him that they ran into us. Tell him how they shook like a bunch of little pussies."

With a shrug Lukas opened the menu, "so what's good here?" He asked with a look of absolute confusion. "The most Italian I've ever had is noodles with tomato sauce, you gotta show me what's good baby, cause I have no idea."

[Andi Thalis]

His words prompted her to look at the escorting men, and she breathed a small sigh of relief as the burden on her shoulders lifted a bit with their departure. His words made some of the other patrons look at their table, and while Andi was never embarrassed to hear Lukas compliment her in that way, her cheeks flamed at his volume and she squeezed his leg gently. “Lukas, lower your voice,” she said softly, her voice taking a sultry tone to entice him. “Not everyone wants to hear about how much you lust after me.”

With a wink, she sipped her water, her good mood returning. “I love you too, Lukas,” she told him, taking his hand and squeezing it gently as the waiter appeared to take their order. Andi smiled when Lukas stated his confusion, and she looked at the waiter. “I’ll have the feta and parmesan manicotti with a Caesar salad and some milk, and he’ll have the five meat and cheese lasagna,” she said, handing the waiter their menus. When the man left, Andi looked up at Lukas.

“You’ll like the lasagna, it’s cheesy and meaty and saucy and it’s just bone-melting goodness,” she told him, smiling as she kissed his cheek. She pillowed her cheek on his shoulder and let herself relax, the first time in a long time, and in the company of the man she loved. True, she was too young by some standards to be in love, but being with Lukas felt right. He made her feel like a princess without being overly sappy about it, and he was willing to defend her honor when it was she who had the explosive power.

She just simply loved him for everything.

“I love you so much, Lukas,” she whispered, looking down at their joined hands, remembering their reunion in her bedroom and the conversations they had shared about their mothers. It made the tears come, but she willed them away, wanting to be happy on this date.

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas curled down a bit when Andi told him to lower his voice, looking around he noticed some of the older couples starring at him, and he had to hold back his urge to flip them all off. That was the old Lukas, the rough and mean Lukas. He was still Lukas, but around Andi he tried so hard to be good. There was something about Andi, something different. And it was that something that made Lukas want to be good, or at least try his best to be good. He knew he would never be a nice guy, he knew he would never not be rough and tough, but at least with her, he didn't want to be Lukas from the Bronx. He just wanted to be her boyfriend during these moments.

When the waiter came Lukas put the menu down and let Andi do the ordering, usually this would upset Lukas, make him feel less "manly" you could say, but he knew that Andi was a strong willed woman. He knew that she had a good head on her shoulders and she knew what she was doing, and it was just food at a restaurant. There was no reason for him to get upset.

"Five meats?" Lukas asked with a smile on his face, "That sounds awesome!" He let out a deep laugh, his stomach growling at the thought of the dinner. His stomach let out another growl when Andi described the dinner he was about to receive, "That sounds so good..." Lukas said with another laugh, while he joking rubbed his stomach.

When Andi placed her cheek on his shoulder, Lukas brought his hand from the small of her back, and wrapped it around her shoulder gently pulling her closer. Placing a small kiss on Andi head, Lukas smiled to himself. He was so happy. Good food, a wonderful beautiful and smoking hot girlfriend, he was completing his courses, and had gotten almost full control of his power, it seemed for once in his life everything was working out for him, and he couldn't have been more happy.

When Andi stirred, Lukas' mind was brought back to reality, he kissed her head again when she professed his love and smiled to himself, "I love you more Andi," He said with a chuckle and kissed her head again.

Feeling Andi quivering a bit, Lukas lifted her chin up to see the glisten on tears on her eyes. "What's wrong baby?" Lukas asked with a small frown on his face. "Was it those guys? Do you want me to go kick their asses? I'm pretty sure I can catch up to them right now."

[Andi Thalis]

“You’ll enjoy it,” she told him when he remarked on the food she had ordered. She could feel the fight he had in his body, a fight to try and be someone different for her, and she appreciated it, more than she let on. When they had met, he had wanted next to nothing to do with her, and they had fought constantly. Over time, a friendship had formed over some friendly competition with the video games, and now…

Andi was the happiest she had ever been.

She tried to keep her tears hidden, but Lukas knew more than she showed, and he lifted her chin to see the liquid brightness in her eyes. “No, you don’t have to go after those guys,” she whispered. “I was just thinking of Mom…how happy she would have been to meet you. She would have loved the boy who had tamed me.” ‘Tamed’ was a small word compared to what Lukas had done, but like she had calmed his raging will, he had somehow softened her.

There was movement and the waiter was there with their food. Andi wiped her eyes with gentle fingers and sat up as her food was placed before her and Lukas’s before him. The waiter left them to enjoy their meal and Andi smiled as her nose filled with the good scents of Italian. She dug into the salad first, moaning softly with how good it tasted. The soft sound made some men close by perk their ears in her direction, but she ignored them, looking at Lukas.

“This is really good,” she said, smiling as she grabbed his fork and got a bite of lasagna on it. Feeling playful, she held the fork up to his lips, wanting to feed him the first bite. “C’mon, open up,” she teased, her eyes sparkling.

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas looked down at the brunette's green eyes, and saw the tears. Using his other hand, Lukas wiped her tears away with his large thumb, and kissed her forehead. "Tamed," he said with a chuckle and kissed her lips. "Remember they're up there together watching over us now, both of them happy and no longer in pain," He said with a smile as he rubbed her cheek gently, he was upset too at the thought of his deceased mother, but he knew she was happy in heaven.

When Andi sat up to receive her food, Lukas brought his hands back, and thanked the waiter before the man left. Lukas thought he had died and gone to heaven the food smelt amazing. Watching Andi take a bite, Lukas couldn't help but laugh when she let out a soft moan because of how good it tasted. But before he could eat, he looked around the room at all the perverted older men starring at Andi, and gave them all dirty looks.

Returning his attention back to Andi, he noticed that she had grabbed his fork and had a mouthful already ready for him. With a smirk, Lukas leaned forward and allowed the brunette to feed him. Usually Lukas would not participate in anything like this, allowing the girl to order for him, and having her feed him, but it make Andi happy. Lukas could see the sparkle in her green eyes, and that's all he wanted. For that sparkle to be one of happiness, and not caused by tears. He just wanted to make Andi happy, no matter how stupid he felt, if she wanted it he was probably going to do it.

Taking the bite, Lukas let out a deep low moan as well, not as sexual as Andi's since no one looked, but it was one of pleasure. "Holy fuck..." Lukas said as he took another bite, and almost drooled everywhere. "That is SO good." He said happily, taking his fork, and getting a mouthful for Andi, "Wanna try babe? It's the shit." Lukas said with a laugh, and held out the fork for Andi. He had never done this before, but he kinda figured it out. Just shovel the food into their mouth, right?

With a smile, Lukas brought the fork to Andi's mouth, but before putting the food in her mouth, he brought it up to leave tomato sauce on her nose. Lukas let out a deep and low laugh when he sat back and looked at his girlfriend. "You still look sexy," He said with a wink before shoveling more food into his mouth.

[Andi Thalis]

His words made sense about their mothers, since she had been the one to make him see it that way when he had come home. Both of their mothers were painless and healthy now, and perhaps they were talking about their children. Andi would eventually have Lukas meet her father and stepmother, but that would be saved for a later date. Right now, it was the two of them enjoying the evening.

Lukas took the bite she had prepared for him, and she smiled at he groaned in appreciation. “See, I told you you would like it,” she said on a giggle as she went back to her food, intent on eating it. He held out a bite for her, and she leaned in to take it, but before she could, he wiped tomato sauce on her nose. Squeaking in surprise, she pulled back as he laughed, and she mock glared at him before taking a finger and wiping some alfredo sauce on it. She brought it up and smeared it on Lukas’s cheek.

“You still look sexy too,” she said with a smile as she wiped her nose clean and took a bite of her food. It melted on her tongue, and when she swallowed, she leaned in and kissed Lukas’s cheek, her tongue darting out to lick at the sauce before she pulled back and continued eating her meal, finishing her food in record time. Andi had been hungry, and she had a fast metabolism. When she finished her milk, she sighed happily and looked at her boyfriend with come-hither eyes.

Her boyfriend. Hell yes.

“Do you want dessert?” she asked as she reached and grabbed the dessert menu from the little basket on the table. She flipped it open and pointed to a picture. “There’s this triple chocolate lava cake with ice cream, or maybe some strawberry cheesecake. How about you pick?”

[Lukas Wolf]

Lukas smiled as he watched his girlfriend stuff her face. He was happy to see her enjoy her food, and kind of proud that she was not the type of girl who picked at salads, and was willing to stuff her face in front of him.

Stuffing his face and trying to catch up with his girlfriend, Lukas let out a burp and leaned back patting his stomach in satisfaction, "That was an amazing choice baby," He smiled at his girlfriend, and wiped his mouth. He was having such a good time. Amazing food and such a beautiful girl beside him, who could probably out eat him.

Watching Andi now, Lukas couldn't help but watch her every move. After all the time they've spent together, this was the first time Lukas really felt like Andi let her guard fall. He felt like he was finally seeing the real Andi, and he loved her. She was happy, cheerful and didn't care about what other people thought of her. And Lukas was proud to call her his girlfriend.

Lukas was brought back to reality when Andi reached out and grabbed the dessert menu. With a smile, Lukas shrugged his shoulders, "Anything you want babe, I'm good with anything." What Lukas really wanted to say was that whatever made Andi happy, Lukas was happy with. He wasn't good with his words at all, and tried his best to show Andi his love. Lukas wasn't picky about food either, and just wanted to see the smile on the brunette's face.

"You pick it baby, you're on a pretty good streak so far, let's keep it up." He said with a laugh, and gently nudged her with his elbow.

[Andi Thalis]

With dinner over, the atmosphere changed from playful and loving to something darker, something that hinted at sensual things. Lukas had made love to her when they had reunited, and while Andi had liked the rough-and-tumble sessions, something about seeing Lukas above her with soft eyes and their fingers entwined while in bed changed something in her, made her crave more. She was needy for the love he could give her, wanting something that she could hold onto for all her life.

His words went unnoticed as she gazed at the menu, her eyes unfocusing as her mind went into hyperdrive into the future. She could see the two of them together, living in a nice house and having jobs. She could even see their children, a daughter and a son who looked very much like their father. Of course, it was too soon to make thoughts like this right now, and she came to when he nudged her with his elbow. Shaking her head a bit to clear the fog, she smiled at him and looked up at the waiter asked if they wanted dessert.

“We’ll have the lava cake with ice cream, two spoons please,” she said as he nodded and walked away, and she turned her attention back to Lukas as she twined his fingers with hers. Her guard was down around him tonight, a first for her for the first time in a long while. Ethan had always seen her like this, but this was Lukas’s first time.

“Lukas…” she began, her smile fading as she looked down at their linked hands. “Where do you see this going?” she asked, looking up at him for a moment. Her emerald eyes were muted and dark, hiding the vulnerability she was trying not to show. “I mean, we love each other and everything, but…there’s so many questions about what’s going to happen from here on out and how we’re going to make this work and everything.” She looked back down at their hands. “You’re you, and I’m…well, I’m someone you didn’t even consider all those months ago. Ethan broke something in me, something that I thought was impervious to any kind of hurt. I’m not doubting our love or our relationship, if that’s what you’re thinking…

“I just…I want to know if I’m good enough for you, Lukas.”

[Lukas Wolf]

Once dinner was over Lukas could feel the immediate change of atmosphere around the table. What the fuck had just happened? Lukas thought to himself, as he placed his fork down and turned his attention over to Andi. Was she even paying attention to him? He wondered as he talked about the desserts available. What was she thinking about? Lukas wondered as he watched her starring distantly at the dessert menu.

Lukas nudged her. A soft gentle one. Maybe, he thought, this would bring her back to reality. He watched her shake her head, and he knew she was finally back. When she smiled up at him, Lukas gave her a smile right back. That's when Lukas noticed the waiter, and let Andi order. Once the waiter left, Lukas' attention returned to Andi's once again. She entwined their fingers together, and Lukas sat back and smiled.

When she said his name, Lukas sat up and turned towards her. Showing him that his attention was fully on her. "What's up baby?" He asked. Where do you see this going...? Andi had asked him and Lukas was a bit taken back. "Where is this coming from?" Lukas asked with a raised eyebrow. Where had this come from? Why was she asking him things like this.

Lukas sat there a listened as Andi spoke about Ethan and how badly he had hurt her. This made Lukas pissed. He wanted to kill Ethan, but at the same time he wanted to get up and walk away. He wasn't Ethan, and Andi knew that. He would've like to think that he was much better than Ethan, but now he didn't know. But then she started going off about how he didn't even consider her before and that hurt him. He had, but he was just being safe.

"Andi..." Lukas started quietly, and placed his large hand against her cheek. "Listen baby, I love you. And I did notice you before, and whether you believe it or not, I did even consider you. You know how I am. You know how much of a douche I can be, and that was just how I was acting. I was stupid, but now I'm happy."

Lukas went quiet as he thought to himself about what to say next, "Also... Andromeda..." He sighed, as he rubbed his thumb against her soft cheek, "I'm not Ethan. I will never be Ethan. And if I could, I would kill that fucker for what he did to you. But I love you. And I always will," He smirked and kissed her forehead, "You are good enough for me. Sometimes I wonder what you even see in me!" He laughed and sat back, his hand taking hers again, "You're too good for me baby. I'm the lucky one here."
