I was in science class when it happened
We were examining the cause of dialation in the pupil
When he walked in

"Class please welcome our new student"
The teacher (Ms Foley) calls out
All eyes land on him

His shakes his blonde hair
away from his blue eyes
The same pair that were trained on me
His lip twitches upwards
And he speaks

"Luke, i'm Luke"

I turn away
Panicking
My mind racing,
irrational thoughts whizzing around my mind

"Can i sit over there?" Luke's voice is heard and i hear Ms Folley agree. His footsteps were loud but not as loud as my heavy heart. Struggling to break free of its cage.

I feel him grow closer

And closer

"It's nice to see you again cal"
he smiles occupying the empty seat, sitting next to me.

i look him straight in the eyes.

"I've missed you"

And that's when I realised
I was right all along

Lucy.

they were Lucy's eyes.
