After Seth made his rude announcement of the day, Luke looked over at me unfazed and tapped his watch, looking at me with a question in his eyes, his big brown eyes... I picked it up. I nodded and glanced at Abby, she shrugged, but her condition seemed to be getting considerably worse.
After reading most of the hour and having silent conversation with Luke, the bell rang. Abby was out the door faster than I could blink. Seth gave us a sneer goodbye and knocked my books on the floor. How original. Luke picked them up before I could even register what happened. He got that look, that one he got if anyone ever tried to harm me. I loved that look. He stood protectively in front of me, which Seth and his followers found amusing. I grabbed his arm before anything got started, and I led him out. It isn't that Luke is hotheaded because he most certainly is not, but he is protective of things he cares about, and I am one of those things...
