'I love you' he whispered in my ear 'I love you'

I jumped out of bed all to awake to realise there wasn't a scary stranger in my bed but the sweet sound of a good dream. My dreams usually consist of nightmares(mainly about me becoming my mother) so I was pleasantly surprised by the fact I didn't wake up screaming. However my dream confused me. I couldn't work out whose voice it was, although it had an innocent loving sound, there was a hint of a dominating alpha male. And it was this that terrified me.
Once again I was dreading the school day, we were having a sports day. Personally I think all sports days should be banned from the face of the earth. Sadly, it's not up to me. I have always been terrible at sport, any type of physical thing makes me shudder and my spine crawl. Fucking school curriculum my ass. I think silently to myself. The morning was dark and cold, making me regret not wearing a coat. I went down the familiar street just around the corner of the school, sighing as I went, when I felt a gentle fall of rain on my nose. Great, just great. The rain continues to get heavier making me feel like a drowned rat. My hair is becoming all straggly from the damp. When, all of a sudden, I'm dry. 'Are you ok?' Luke was looking very concerned. 'Yeah, just a bit wet' I rethink what I just said expecting some witty remark but nothing happens. 'You look like you might be ill. Why aren't you wearing a coat?' He started to sound like a caring mother talking to her child. 'I'm fin-ACHOO!' I sneezed all over Luke's torso covering him in droplets of snot and spit. 'Oh, I'm so sorry!' I go completely silent holding my head to the floor. Why can't I just act natural for once? Eventually we reached the gates to school. 'Good luck with sports day' he whispered and hopped away to his friends. The rain had slowed to a gentle graze against my skin. It felt oddly soothing, almost as if it was calming me down. I made my way into the main building hoping to warm myself up.
Even though the rain has caused the field to become a pool of grungy mud, they didn't call off the sports day. My he whole class sighed, intensely.
Our first 'activity' was a football match. I wasn't passed the ball unless our team was in a very tight spot (although it was always a mistake) so at least I didn't have many opportunities to embarrass myself. The second thing was a race. This was when I realised I had an audience. No, I already knew there was an audience, but it was like I had one all to myself.

Luke stared at me the entire race. His gaze was highly distracting, causing me to trip multiple times on my run. When our eyes met I felt like I was falling into a whirlpool of emotion. Then Luke's eyes turned downwards to look at my but. I scowled at him but he only gave me a sexy smirk. Sadly, at that very moment I tripped straight over my untied shoe laces. I could here the babble of people howl with laughter. I picked myself up and Bentley walked away as if nothing had happened. Ignore them I think to myself. For now I tried to concentrate on Luke's magical garden and what we were going to do later. My excitement overwhelmed we. But in the pit of my stomach was guilt. But what was I guilty for?
