Girl ❤ Ghost

Love

I met Luke for lunch in the canteen at college the next day. Neither of us spoke of what had happened before, however both of us knew that we were both thinking about it.
I was the one to break the silence.

"Luke you see last night..."

"Yea. It's OK don't sweat it. It was great until..."

"I'm. When mum walked in?"

We both chuckled. He kissed my check and I went bright red.

"Luke are you going to prom next month?"

"Yea. I'm taking you aren't I?"

My face froze in shock. I smiled. Did he just kinda ask me to prom? Or was I just imagining things?

"Do you want to meet up again?" Luke asked.

"Tonight?"

He winked at me.

Later that day, Luke and I walked home together. Our arms entwined. I leant my head on his shoulder as we walked. With Luke I felt complete. We were nearly at my house when it started to rain. Neither of us had an umbrella or a coat, so we darted to my house. By the time we got in- we were absolutely soaked to the skin. I started shivering and Luke put his arms round me and grabbed me a blanket. We both went upstairs to grab a towel to dry ourselves of. We sat in my room drying off and started talking again.

"Luke,I'm sorry if this is invading anything but, how did your mum die?"

He looked at me with sad eyes.

"She suffered from a mental health disease called schizoaffective. One of schizoaffective symptoms include hallucinations. She had a bad hallucination one day where she went round believing that she was a bird. She went onto the Red bridge, just down Tamworth town centre, and she jumped believing that she could fly. And she was found..."

Luke cried as if his heart would break. I hugged him. Desperate not to let go.

"J promise me you will never leave me..."

"Luke I promise. Cross my heart. Hope to die."

I drew him near and our lips met. His lips were sweetened and silken. His hands moved over my body. Then his lips slid to my neck. Each movement was soft and sedated. Every kiss sent shivers down my spine and increased my heart beat. He pulled me to the bed where we both laughed and caught our breath. Unrushed, Luke slid his hands to undo the button of my blouse. I did the same to his top. In the space of 10 minutes, we were in a passionate trance with each other in only our underwear. Sharp bursts of love pierced my heart. Gasping to catch my breath. I loved him. I love him soooooo much.

The aromatic scent of Luke sent me to sleep into his fond arms. I smiled. I was the luckiest girl in the world. I had Luke.

"J, I love you."

"Luke, I love you more."

"Jaimie, I love you most."
