I can't fall in love || D.M.

•chapter 36•

~water fight~

Me and Luke had got closer the past week, we stayed up almost all night talking about anything and everything.

I was starting to really like him.

It was Sunday night and everyone was asleep getting some rest for tomorrow, we were going to my grandmothers beach house.

I was awake I couldn't get to sleep after I woke up from yet another nightmare. Every time I tried to sleep I slipped into the same dream.

They stopped when I was with Luke. Maybe I should go find him.

I got up and put my slippers on. I had a big t shirt and shorts on.

I tiptoed out of the room trying not to wake Pansy or Rose. I left the dorm, I walked the corridors for a while. As I was walking I decided to not wake Luke up, I should stop being so clingy. He's not even mine.

I decided to go back to my dorm. I was walking back through the corridor when I heard someone's foot steps. I panicked and froze. They sounded me they were around the corner. I pressed my back against the wall and peeked around the corner.

I saw a tall dark figure. I couldn't make out who it was.

"Ariel?" The figure said. I recognised that voice it's Luke. My heart was pounding, thank god it's just him.

"You scared the shit out of me. Why are you wondering around at midnight like a creep" I whisper shouted.

"I could ask you the same question... I couldn't sleep so I decided I wanted to go on a walk" he sighed.

"I had another nightmare so I wanted to go on a walk. I was going to wake you up but I thought you might kill me" I laugh.

"Why would you wake me up" he smirked.

"You make them go away" I looked down expecting him to make fun of me.

"Aren't you cute" he laughed stepping closer to me and brushing a piece of my hair from infront of my face to behind my ear, with his hand.

"Shut up" I laugh pushing his chest.

"Hey! Be nice or... no cuddles" he laughed.

"Fine sleep over in my dorm?" I said smiling.

"Sure why not" he said.

We started to walk up the stairs and my legs really hurt. I felt drained from the dreams I kept having. It was horrible I was trapped in my dream. I kicked my legs and tried to scream but no noise came out.

"Can't. Walk. Any. Further. Go without me." I said dramatically lying on the stairs with my tongue out pretending to be dead.

"No soldier left behind" he said and picked my up and threw me over his shoulder. "She needed sleep ASAP" he started running up the stairs making me giggle as I bounced over his shoulder. He carried me like I was nothing.

"Stay withe me we're almost there" he said as we approached my dorm.

We were so childish I learnt he was just a big baby really. Even thought he could be serious. He was the perfect ratio of loving and toxic.

He put me down at my dorm door and opened the door. I took my slippers off climbed into bed, I looked at Luke who was leaning up my bed post.

I lifted up the quilt inviting him in as soon as I did he jumped up. I stared into his eyes and he did the same.

"Are you gonna cuddle me or just stare at me?" He asked.

I rolled my eyes and turned around allowing him to spoon me. He wrapped his arm around my chest and I stroked his hands taking in every scar, vein and imperfection.

I eventually fell asleep, no nightmares just sleep.

10:00pm.

"Wakey wakey!" I heard someone say before I was drenched with water.

I shot up and looked for the culprit. Luke.

"You little shit!" I exclaimed I saw Pansy and Rose sniggering in the corner.

"Luke if you know what's good for you. Fucking run!" Pansy laughed and Luke obliged sprinting out of the door.

He was fast he was about 6ft in front of me.

"You're gonna pay for that!" I screamed.

"You'll have to cast her me first"

I ran faster and he ran into great hall, I darted after him pulling the door just enough for me to slip through.

There he is standing by Draco. I jogged over to him my chest raising up and down quickly. I was soaked from head to toe.

I finally caught him after running around the table about 10 times. I jumped on him he fell on his back and I straddled his waist. I kissed him to distract him while I reached as far as I could. I grabbed a jug of water and poured it all over him.

I got off of him and ran or my life. Everyone was watching us but I couldn't care less.

He chased me around the slytherin table until I go tired and he slowly gained up on me. He held his wet arms out. "Awh do you want a hug" he asked evilly smirking.

"Fuck no" I said and rand behind Alex.

He caught up to me and grabbed me before I could get away, wrapping his arms around me getting me even more soaked than I already was.

Draco was watching us scoffing at our childish behaviour.

I pulled away and draco looked me up and down. "What?" I asked.

I looked down and my T-shirt was wet and you could see my blue bra underneath. Luke must have noticed it too because he gave me a piggy back. "Abort mission" he said as we headed back to my dorm. I was already packed I just needed to change.

11:30am we had 30 minutes until we had to leave. Everyone was in my dorm making sur ether had everything.

"My eye still hurts you dick" Blaise shouts at Alex making me jump.

"What? Why?" I asked.

"When you left we had a food fight" Alex said proudly.

"Yeah and I got mash potatoes thrown in my eye by that wanker" he scoffed.

"Hey you started it, you flicked peas at me" Alex replied.

"Still you took it too far" Blaise sneered.

"Alex 1, Blaise 0" he cheered.

I scoffed. "Come on we don't want to be late now do we?"

"Yeah lets get going you idiots" Draco laughed pushing Blaise and Alex our of the door shortly followed by Pansy and Rose and lastly me and Luke.

He grabbed my hand and insisted on carrying my bag on his back, it wasn't too heavy I just packed lingerie, tank tops, skirts, shorts and dresses. We're going to a beach house it'll be hot.

I was so excited and nervous at the same time.
