Walter

"So, what's our next class then?" I asked Henry as we were packing our things after English class.

"PE" He closed the last book that was left on his desk before we left the classroom.

"Noo" I groaned, letting my head fall back, "We're gonna play hockey again, aren't we?"

"I think so" We went to the lockers to pick up our sportswear.

"I'm so bad at this...and I also have rowing training later. It's gonna be even more exhausting." I opened my locker and looked for my clothes.

"Why didn't you just quit rowing as well? I mean I didn't want to spend more time with August than I have to, that's why I quit, you could just do the same." He suggested.

"I can't" I closed the locker shut and started walking to the gym, "I need an extra course for my grades and there's nothing else I could do." We entered the changing room, being the first ones there, "I mean, do you think I would fit in the choir? No one would want to listen to them anymore then." We took our usual changing places next to each other.

"That's true" Henry had a smug grin on his lips.

"Oh, I hate you" I huffed at him.

"You don't" He changed into a different hoodie, "I think you actually love me" He leaned close to my face.

Then the door opened which made Henry and me jump back from each other, turning away and continuing changing.

"I do, actually" I smiled at Henry when I was wearing my sports clothes.

He then turned around, taking something, "Here" He passed me a hockey stick.

"What are you doing?" I looked at him confused.

"You said you're bad at hockey, so let's practise before we actually play."

I rolled my eyes at him but he already started playing.

"Come on" He pleaded, so I joined him and we were playing hockey in the changing room. Even though I expected someone to be annoyed by us, no one actually said anything, letting us play while they were changing and it actually started to make fun but that might also be because it was with Henry.

"Take it" He instructed me, "And play it back to me" I did as he told me.

"Now don't let me get it" I tried what Henry told me to do.

"Exactly like that" He chuckled and that made me chuckle as well.

When we started playing hockey in PE, I first had to wait outside until someone needed a break.

I watched the other's play, mostly Henry to be completely honest. His hair jumped up and down when he was running, looking extremely focused on the game while I had no clue what was actually happening in the game. I only knew where Henry was running to. Strands of his hair were getting sweaty but he still looked as good as ever.

After Simon scored Henry came to me, "Can you play for me?" He was breathless.

"Yeah, sure" I stood up and took the hockey stick from him.

"Don't think I haven't seen you staring at me" He whispered into my ear before he sat down. I turned around, looking at him slightly shocked but he only gave me a smug grin in return. Then I ran to the field, starting to play with the other's.

"So, I've been thinking," Henry started as we were walking back to our room after PE, "we've never had a proper date." He let our fingers brush past each other since no one was here, "So wanted to ask if you want to go out with me tonight?"
