[How was it that two people who liked each other had the hardest time telling one another that they did, in fact, like each other? This would probably make for a funny story later on, but in the moment, it wasn't the best feeling for Rey. She was a little confused as well, knowing Rose only showed up to their performances here and there.
So, naturally she thought Luke had been texting or chatting with her on the side. Because she was a smart and pretty girl, and probably more Luke's type.
Rey was preparing to make a quick getaway; pick up her bag and say she had to go home for one reason or another. Would that be cowardly? Probably. Before she could move to pick up her bag, Luke told her it wasn't Rose he was interested in but her.
Her.
The hurt she felt gave way to shock and surprise.]
You...like me? [The young woman repeated, caught off guard by his words and still trying to process what just happened. It wasn't Rose. It wasn't Rose, but her!] You like me? [She repeated again, still trying to come to grips with the situation and found her cheeks were starting to feel warm. Was she blushing? Yes.
Rey chewed on her bottom for lip for a moment before taking a deep breath. Hopefully, she wasn't going to sound idiotic for this:] I didn't know, but that makes me happy. I like you too, Luke. Like...really like you.
