Today is Valentine's day and it is coming to a close. I decide to make my move in seventh period and ask my crush to come over. Luke, my crush, came over and sat in the open seat next to mine. "What's up Medley? Do you need help with anything?" he asks in his normal tone of voice. "No, I actually want to give you something, so hold out your hands," I say while a light blush appeared on my cheeks. He does as I say with a look of confusion on his face. I pull out the heart shaped box I want to give him and place it in his hands quickly so that no one else can see. Luke looked at the box of chocolates I placed in his hand. "Thank you," he says as he puts the item inside his backpack.
After doing so, he took my right hand and held it under the desk. "We can't do this, you are still going out with Xyla , right?" I said with a pain in my chest. Tears welled up in my eyes when I thought about him with someone else, but Luke patted my head with a soft smile and said, "Silly, we broke up with each other." He seemed happy about it so I also smiled. I guess he noticed my smile because then he asked me, "Do you want to come over to my house?" Caught up in my excitement, I replied, "Yes! Of course!"
The bell finally rang and I walked towards the bus with him. Before getting on the bus, he hid me in his jacket, since I am not supposed to take the bus. Luckily, I didn't get caught because the bus driver was speaking to someone over the phone. We took our seats near the middle of the bus and he allowed me to sit next to the window. It took a while for everyone to get on the bus, so I knew we were going to arrive at our destination a little late. Luke seemed to notice that I was afraid of riding the bus, so he held my hand again. I did not pull my hand away, since I felt really comfortable. Being able to do this was so calming that I fell asleep on his shoulder.
I felt Luke poking my cheek and it was a sign to tell me we have arrived. I looked outside the window and it was raining. Everyone on the bus hurried to get off and ran home. Luke and I were the last to get off and after the bus left, he asked me, "Are you tired?" I nodded my head in agreement then said, "Sorry I fell asleep on you. I didn't get much sleep last night." I felt myself blush when I thought about the actions I took.
Luke took his backpack in his hand and kneeled down. He looked back at me and said, "Want a ride?" I laughed, while climbing onto his back. While I was on his back, I thought about many things then I looked up at the rain. That was when I remembered what I was wearing. I wore a white shirt today with khaki shorts hoping that Luke would notice me at school. I blush crept onto my face when I noticed that my clothes were transparent now. I dug my face into his back to hide the embarrassment I was feeling. As if he knew what I was feeling, he told me, "Hold on tight for a second okay?" I held him tightly confused at what he was going to do. He removed his left arm from my leg and reached into his backpack. Luke removed his sweater and told me, "Use this for now." After he put his arm around my leg, I put it on quickly and said, "Thank you." He smiled, then continued to carry me on his back, until we reached his home.
Luke lowered himself, so that I could get off his back safely. He picked up the doormat and took out the keys hidden underneath it. He opened the door and invited me inside.
