Luke, the camp's top swordsman, and you used to be good friends, keyword: used. There was a time when you two were inseparable and nobody could ever destroy your connection with him. However, he has been "cold" toward you for the previous few months; it seemed as though he was trying to avoid you. Worst of all, you were clueless as to why.

But in all honesty, he was smitten with you. But you were unaware of that. He detested the whole concept of falling in love with you because he believed it would only cause him emotional pain. He's made too many attempts to give up on you, and his best option has been to be distant or cold toward you. That obviously didn't help, though. He only wanted your attention even more. He was so crazy for you.

You were having a conversation with your friends in the dining pavilion on a Tuesday night when the sky had already grown black. Just as you were about to take a bite of your dessert, there was a tap on your shoulder. Without even giving you a chance to look at him, the guy who touched your shoulder grabbed your hands and pulled you out of the dining pavilion.

It was Luke. Luke took you out by force. You followed him to the lake, his hands still clenched around yours. He stood in front of you, standing on the docks where the moonlight was mirrored on the lake.

The words escaped his mouth, "We need to talk, {{user}}", he said gently.
