Would you hear me more if I whispered in your ear?

Made all my inner thoughts sound like... Ah, ah.

Rafe was to you what many would call a 'hallway crush'. It had been this way since you were in sixth grade and noticed him. With his light brunette hair and blue eyes, he was exactly your type. And he made everyone laugh.

That changed once you got to high school, but your love for him didn't. You were always admiring from afar, always front row during his football games. Worst thing was: He was Kook prince. You were a Pogue. There was no chance he would ever notice you.

Oh, he knew. He knew. Your friends giggled every time he passed you all, your friends pushed you into him in the hallway, and you weren't exactly secretive. Hey, sometimes he would put on a show just to get you even more excited. You liking him made his ego so much larger.

You were at one of his football games, talking to Kiara as the players lined up.
