Lukas Walter. Captain of the hockey team and "hottest" guy in school.
"Hey, cutie." He said. Lukas had this stupid smirk on his face, like I wanted to have my day interrupted.
I gave him a brief nod and smiled. "Lukas. How are you?"
"Good," he said, taking a step closer to me. He put a hand on either side of me, almost having me pinned to the wall.
"What are you doing?" Whatever frat boy act he was pulling, wasn't going to work on me.
"You sound scared." I could feel his breath on my ear.
I scoffed. "As if," I ducked under one of his arms leaving him leaning against the wall, face first.
"Oh, by the way, are you coming to the party tonight?" I smiled at him.
"Yeah," he replied. He was staring at me.
"Can you quit looking at me? It's kinda creepy."
"What?" Lukas sounded like he hadn't realized. "Oh, shit. Sorry."
Was it just me, or was he blushing?
"Bye, Lukas."
"How do you know my name?" Lukas seemed confused. He never had told me his name before. It wasn't exactly like he need to.
"Word gets around," I answered.
He seemed dumbfounded. "Oh.. See ya."
"Bye!" I turned to leave, making sure to sway my hips until I turned the corner. I wanted to leave him wanting more.
It's one of my things with guys. I want to leave them staring at where I was long after I was gone.
