---------------------------------------------------------
After Miles had followed you on Instagram, things started getting better and better with you two. You and Miles weren't dating though... Nor friends. It was just average with you two. He respected you like a lover, but he didn't label the relationship you guys have going on.
You were walking in the hallway alone per usual, and Miles bumped into you purposefully to try and start a conversation with you while also dapping you up. "Hey, Y/N! You didn't text me last night, you okay?" he says with a slightly worried tone. He was being genuine. You could tell that he liked you in some way, he just didn't tell you in what kind of way.
"Yeah, I just fell asleep early... You know how that is." you chuckle awkwardly. He smiles at you.
"I was kind of worried when you didn't text me... I'm glad that you're feeling alright." Miles daps you up again before running to his class before falling onto the ground, but also hopping right back up. He fell pretty hard... Yikes.
As you're walking to your class, two girls come up to you.
"Are you and Miles Morales dating?" one girl says with excitement. You gasp a little and start to get embarrassed.
"Erm... I don't..." you mutter. That was all you could get out at the moment.
"You are!!!" the other girl said with happiness.
"No... We're not dating. We're just friends... I think." you explain to them. You could tell they couldn't understand that well... After all, they are assuming you and Miles are dating, when it's not even confirmed that he sees you as a friend.
"Oh... But we see him flirting with you and we're like, so happy! He was never really charismatic..." the one girl says. It didn't seem like she was being sincere when she said those things. The other girl seemed like she was just agreeing, like some little lap dog. You nod awkwardly and hurry to your next class.
You sit down at your seat, waiting for your best friend to arrive. Her name is Kaimana. She's Samoan and so, so freaking pretty! She always has her hair in a ponytail and always smells like fruit-scented body mist. You tend to tell her a lot of things, but not your feelings for Miles. When she arrives in the classroom, you get a big adrenaline rush, your friends always knew how to make you laugh-cry and that's what made you wanna go to school every day.
As Kaimana sits down, she smiles big at you, and you smile right back! Not knowing what it was about...
"Y/N, you never told me that you're dating Miles Morales!" she said excitedly as she sits down. Your smile fades.
"I'm... I'm not dating him... Everyone keeps thinking that." you say with full honesty. Kaimana knows she messed up and corrects herself ever so quickly.
"Oh! Excuse me, people are saying that you're dating Miles... What's that about, Y/N?" she said more professionally.
"It's a rumor..." you mumble. "I'll tell you later." Kaimana nods and starts working in class. You wonder about what those girls said. Are they Miles' friends? Or are they just trying to make fun of you...? But the thing is, they seemed very... Off about it. It almost seemed like they like Miles too. The one girl was very petty about it. Almost as if you stole her man.
When class ended you were walking with Kaimana in the hallway, you finally weren't walking by yourself.
"So, Y/N...?" she says, hinting about you and Miles. You acted like you didn't know what she was talking about... Just to make the conversation more oblivious.
"What are you talking abou-" you ask before you get cut off. Someone's arm wraps around you as you're walking. Guess who it was. Miles!
"That!" Kaimana whispers.
"What's up, Y/N?" Miles said excitedly as he brings you closer as if he was giving you a loving side hug. You look up at him with shock. Eyes widened and everything.
You didn't know what to say so you said "Hey...!" shyly. You blush a little because it's almost like you're in love with each other... Or are we being delusional? Silly us.
Miles walks you to your next class, casually. Didn't even ask you if you wanted him to or anything. Almost as if you were dating... Maybe he does like you, just too afraid to tell you!
When you arrive at your next class he daps you up before walking back by himself. When you sat down, Miles' friends sat behind you and started giggling and whispering. What's funny to them?
You sat by yourself that period and one of Miles' friends got a little bit louder and said "Miles likes-" before continuing the sentence in a whisper.
---------------------------------------------------------
After school when you got home, you called Kaimana right away. When she picked up she said, "What's up, Mrs. Morales?"
"Very funny, Kaimana," you say with exhaustion since you've been hearing stuff like that all day.
She giggles and says "What's up with you and Miles, hm? Everybody saw how you two were kissing in the hallway." she teases.
"Dear god, Kaimana. We were not kissing..."
"That's not what I saw. You two were Frenching in the hallway. Anyways, tell me what's going on with you two." Kaimana says with a witty tone. You started explaining what happened and what he had been doing the past few weeks and what his friends had said earlier as well.
She nods and says "He wants you so bad, bro." as if she were feeding into your delusions. You laugh and giggle a little because the idea of him confessing his feelings for you actually didn't sound too bad.
"I'm gonna text him something, Kaimana," you say with a bit of giggling behind it. You text him and ask him "What are we?".
"Okay, tell me what he says when he replies!" she jumps excitedly.
Miles didn't text back until way later around 11 PM. You weren't on the phone with Kaimana anymore because he took way too long.
"What do you mean? We're friends, aren't we?" Miles texts back. "Sorry, I didn't reply sooner... I was busy.".
You scoff and think for a minute. This man dared to call you two friends after hugging you and being a little lovey-dovey with you.
"It's okay, I understand, haha" you text back. He hearts your message as he's typing.
"We should hang out, and get some ice cream." he texts back, it seems as if he were being a little bold. You kind of feared that he'll stand you up, but maybe he won't.
"Okay! Sounds like a plan." you text back. You started getting excited and you couldn't wait to tell Kaimana about it.
