My head snapped to look up at Lucas. He shot me a quick wink and gave my hand a reassuring squeeze.
A rush of butterflies swarmed in my stomach, and I blushed furiously. Walking hand in hand with Lucas in public felt like a huge step, one that was bound to stir things up at Shadow High.
Entering school, hand in hand, was like setting off a bomb.
Everyone's eyes fell on us as if he had a spotlight over our heads. Whispers and muted conversations quickly filled the air, and I could practically feel the weight of countless eyes on us, something I'd experienced before, but never like this.
Every eye in the building was on us as if we were celebrities. Everyone wanted to get a closer look at what was going on. Even a few teachers seemed to be giving us curious looks.
"Ignore them," Luca
