I felt Lukes eyes staring at me and I turned to see his amazing blue eyes looking at me.
" h, hi," he says to me when he realises I've seen him. "I,I, I was just looking at your work to see what that word says, I can't read the teachers writing on the board." he says, not really sounding convincing.
"Haha, were you really?" I say jokingly, not really looking for an answer.
"You know I wasn't really," Luke says blushing slightly.
I hear Darren and Michael talking about us on my other side but I pretend I can't hear them. I think about something to talk about.
"So Luke, erm, what brings you here? Your accent tells me your not local." I say to him.
He looks down and his face grows upset, and kind of embarrassed.
"Is my accent really that noticeable?"
He says sounding concerned.
"It's amazing, I love it!" I say. Not realising what I was saying.  I then felt my face burning scarlet.
"Awe really!?" Luke says excitedly
"Erm, yes. Yes I do," I say giggling slightly.
"Awwwweee look at them!"I hear Darren saying, I turn to face him and he pats me on the head smiling.
"You two are adorable," he says.
"Oh shut up!" I say, slapping him on the shoulder while holding back a laugh.
All through this Luke is just sat looking at us shyly, wondering weather or not to join in the conversation. I turn back to face him and catch him looking away upset, he looked in the edge of tears.

"Luke?" I say, putting my hand on his shoulder.
He looks back at me and smiles.
"Are you okay?" I ask. I wasn't convinced by his smile. His mouth was smiling, but his eyes weren't.
"Yeah, I'm great!" He says smiling again.
"Well you don't look it! If you need someone to talk to, I.. I'm here," I say. Trying to sound as supportive as I can.

He really didn't look ok! You could see it in his eyes. He was ready to break, Or to cry. Or both. I really wanted to know what was upsetting him, but I was too scared to ask. Instead I just looked at him as he smiled at me and accepted my support, before carrying on with my work.

Before long the school bell went to tell us we had to go to next lesson. I had been getting on with my work for a good half an hour now, and when i finally look up I see Luke putting some neatly folded paper into his jeans pocket before he packs his things away.
He then stands and waits for the rest of us to pack up.

We all begin walking to our next class, maths, as Luke grabs my arm as I begin to walk. He signals for the others to carry on walking and he looks at me once they've gone.

"Erm, Lilly..I...well...I wanted to ask you some stuff, but I'm not good with words, so I made you a letter...Erm, you can read it in maths if you want, or you can rip it up or whatever. Or if you want you can even reply." He says,blushing as he hands me the paper I had seen him putting into his pocket before. "Anyway were gonna be late so we better get a move on," he says before walking away slowly, expecting me to walk with him. I carry the paper safely in my hand. Not wanting to let go of it, and I rush off to my next class. I didn't want to wait another moment to see what it said. For once I couldn't wait for maths!
