a secret love story

Chapter One : fate

On a particularly bright day roughly in the beggining of spring : The blossom twirling to the ground with the grace of a balet dancer, the sun shining though being tucked away by the milky white clouds, and the baby blue sky being hypnotysing and able to capture you within seconds of looking in the same direction.
The traffic was always unusually busy but today the traffic was as gentle as a stream of water calmy flowing past trees, plants, animals and all sorts of beings. This was the day that you would see in the romantic films where the main character would meet the person of their dreams or atleast something like that. With the sun creeping through the curtains as if to say to wake up there are footsteps quietly brushing against the stairs and a creak on the landing along with the sound of faint pattering. Then the door slowly opens and a voice echoing through the room its mum. "wake up today you are going to your new school and if you dont you'll be late." she then turns around and leaves the room "okay!" his voice croaked after her, after sitting up and scanning the room his eyes settle on his school uniform and whilst striding across the room his mind starts to drift to other things, shaking himself to snap out of it and carries on walking to get changed. Twenty minutes later he ties his new tie and heads for his bedroom door with his backpach slung over one shoulder and he slumps his backpack down outside the bathroom and goes to wash his face and brush his teeth. Whilst looking in the mirror ponderinig about the new school the toaster pops and he walks out grabs his bag and heads down the stairs but one shoelace starts to unravel resulting in a stumble. After which he ties his shoelace and carries on down the stairs reaching the living room and he strides through the room to get through to the kitchen and grabs a  couple of piece's of toast a knife and butter and starts to spread the butter across the bread whilst humming (not very well). After eating the toast he then heads to the door "bye mum!" "goodbye." he then starts to walk to the bus stop and after three minutes he finally reaches the bus stop and gets on the bus. When he gets on he's asked "pass?" he turns and shows his bus pass to the bus driver "okay go on then." he starts to walk down the aisle searching for a spot he sees two empty seats in the back one row away from the back and he starts heading to the seats . When he nearly reaches the spot he feels someones grip on his arm "come and sit with me at the back." said a voice he turned around and saw a boy with a brown fifties haircut and hazel eyes with american girl doll teeth. "okay." "im tom" the boy said "im luke." the two walk down and sit in the corner with malachy by the window and lucas next to him. Sitting down they begin to buckle their seatbelts whilst doing so their hands brush together and they look up locking eyes with each other and tom looks into lukes eyes noticing their colour and luke looks into toms eyes and notices their colour, they realise and awkwardly look down and swear to keep it a secret for as long as possible. The two begin a conversation awkwardly and pretend to not remember what happened a moment before and shrugged it off they started talking and beore long they had arrived at the school time started to fly by and by the time it slowed down abit it was lunch the two had arranged to meet up for lunch. He singled out tom from the crowd and started to head over to him tom saw the blonde he had met on the bus a couple hours before and headed towards him swiftly.

As the two got closer they started talking and went down to the hall to grab some lunch and went back out to the benches where they had planned to stay that lunch the two carried on talking and were slowly recognising eachothers feelings for one another and trying to hide it from anyone without being suspicious. While they were talking tom got out a blue paper towel and ripped a corner off to scribble his phone number on "here"tom says "whats this?" luke asked tom responds with "its my phone number so we can talk." "okay." the pair soon began talking again and a piece of blossom falls on the blondes head causing the brunette to burst out in laughter "whats so funny" a flustered luke said "theres a piece of blossom on your head"wheezed the brunette and the pair start to laugh even more uncontrollably than before and they get up off the bench and start to run throwing blossom at eachother gigling to their hearts content.

"aah , stop throwing the blossom" the blonde chuckled "heh never" the brunette chimed appearing to be more bubbly than usual. a bell rings and everyone starts to ooze out of the building and walk to lessons the boys start to run to their backpacks and grabed them putting them on the two parted to their seperate lessons as the odd sensation of butterflys built up in lukes stomache, After lunch in his last lesson thinking about tom and getting told off for daydreaming during his test.

The end of the day drew closer and closer by as the two thought of one another longing to get back onto the bus to see eachother again then the bell echoed through the building as the noise barged into the classrooms. The two of them immediately sprang up to be dismissed from their lesson and waiting with anticipation as their teachers crept down the rows. "Dismissed" cooed a teacher and the two shot up and swiftly made their way to the doors fond of the idea of spending time together, bolting down hallways , dodging teachers and other students the two were overwhelmed with emotions.
