Excitement. Thanks Joel for helping me.

She turned her head and looked at me. The fine day was destroyed by the sudden downpour. While stealing glances at her, I realised that she was almost dry. I did not know whether it was her shirt or the pure beauty of her, mesmerizing even the rain. It seemed to go around her instead of on her.

I was dripping wet, and looked embarrassingly at her. She gave a short giggle. Little as it might seem, it seemed to render everything else redundant. She filled my body with warming heat against the freezing cold from the rain outside. She turned the world around. As our eyes met by accident, I remembered the first time I saw her.

It was three years ago, when I was still in Secondary One. We had been students who just graduated from our respective primary schools. I had been a clumsy boy, but happy nonetheless. The day started with some ice-breaking games. We needed to play a game of which two people must hold their hands and lift it up in the sky as people crawl through it. I was coincidentally paired up with her. As our hands touched for the first time, I began to believe there was such a thing as love at first touch, right beside love at first sight, which is unbelievable to me, even now. Although I made a lot of mistakes as my attention was focused on her, she forgave it all. She did not criticize me, she just corrected it and laughed with me at it. I had been a child then, so I probably could not understand that feeling. But that had all been in the past.

I was pulled back to the reality when she touched my shoulders. I did not know it was her initially, but when I turned back, I felt my heart start to race. Droplets of sweat formed around me as I did not know this feeling. I was happy yet...nervous?

"So...what did you do in school today? Was it fun?" She asked. I understood the hidden message immediately. She was trying to strike up a conversation. I still had that weird feeling, but I pushed it to the back of my head as my attention was only directed at her. The world around me seemed to crumble, leaving pitch darkness, and me staring into her deep gaze.

I began to find myself chatting about all the things that happened today. Luckily the day was long and we both found time to keep each other company. I ignored the rushing people around me, and forgot about the load of homework that was waiting for me in my bag. With my eyes transfixed on her, I felt ready.

" Will...you be my girlfriend?" I murmured. It had been out of the blue and she looked at me, no doubt stunned. I did not know what to expect. I did not even know I had the courage to say it. To be honest, that question simply blurted out of me. My heart was in my throat and I made a futile attempt to calm myself down. I wanted to think that it was no problem, but I knew this was something that concerned both our lives and she could not be hasty. I decided to give her time to think about it, while sitting beside her.

I felt her eyes flicker over to me a few times, but I had been too nervous to return the gaze. Finally, She made an answer.

"I'm sorry. The exams are coming up. We had best remain as friends." I was obviously disappointed. But I was a guy and such weak emotions will only bring me down. I forced a smile and replied that it was not a problem, and that the fact that we could still be friends was comforting. That had been the time of my life, and although it did not end optimistically, I knew I had tried my best.

(And yes I did. I tried my best on this fiction. I hope I didn't write out of point or anything... >.<)
