I walked to my class with Erlin, as we talked about games, books, songs and celebrities. I kept staring at Miles, wondering what he would do after school . It was time to step up to Gankee. I sighed as I get on my seat in class. I saw Miles entering. God... I had to resist not to walk up to him and kiss his lips. No, that was wierd.

Why was I so wierd? I was such a wierd girl. I was acting wierd. It wasn't me. It was my behavior. I stared at the teacher, who was explaining something about air. No clue. But it's not like I could really concentrate at the education. I sighed, and drew something in the corner of my notebook. It was an M. Like I could really care. I put my head on my hand, as I leaned on it. I felt exhausted. Like I could sleep here right on the table. But I didn't give up. Hell nah. I catched a glance of Erlin, as she smiled at me. I just couldn't focus.

I felt two eyes burning in my back. I started to get sweaty. It was him. I could feel it. I just knew it. I didn't dare to turn around. Erlin came to sit next to me. "Yo, I want to say that Miles is staring at you like the entire time." She whispered. I didn't get red this time. It was like magic.

There was something strange going on...Like I knew Miles already for an eternity. No, I shook my head. Couldn't be. Then the test would be given out in the class. I was nervous, I didn't learn at all. Erlin got back to her seat, as the silence would get broken by Gankee. "Excuse me, miss. We miss a boy, Aiden Williams." He said, as the teacher let out a heavy breath. "Ah, thank you, mr. Lee. I really am." The teacher smiled softly at him. "Now, will you continue to focus on the test?" Ganke nodded his head. it was quiet again. I sigh softly, as I read the first assignment.

'okay. you know this. don't mess this up, Aut.' I said in my thoughts. I start to make the test on my feelings in my gut. After the test, and I wanted to stood up, there was a note left on my table. Erlin grabbed it before i had a chance to. "hey, give that to me!" I giggled. She chuckled back. "Morales has a crush on you. Awww, how cute. You're gonna melt his heart, Aut!" She gave the note. I read it.

"🖤"

'What?! Why would someone leave it here for me...' I thought. I putted the note in my bag, as I get up. "wierdo." I sigh and told my bestie. She kept smiling. "Miles is addicted to you. You two should get a room and make out." She said."what? n-no!" I said, as I blushed. "It's probably not him. You know why?" Erlin chuckled. "Suuuure." She rolled her eyes. I just sighed. "He has a girlfriend." I mentioned. Erlin laughed out loud.

"right." She nudged my arm. I walked out of the class, as Erlin walked behind me. "Just believe me." She said, as we get to the cafetaria. "Yea, sure." I said sarcasticly. We sat at a table, as Erlin was getting our lunches. I grabbed my sketchbook, and started to sketch a drawing. A few boys surrender the table. "Hey, that's the plain Jane freak!" One boy said, with a hand in front of his mouth, and laughing at me. "Dayum! Who's she drawing?" One other boy pointed at my sketchbook. I hid it against my chest. "N-no one.." I mumbled. One of the boys grabbed it.

"Miles Morales? That freak?!" He yelled. I tried to get it back, but the guys started to laugh. "Miles Morales!!" The main bully shouted through the cafetaria. There was sudden silent. People looked at me, and a guy answered.

"Yes? What's wrong?" It was Miles that answered the guy's words. He stepped forward. The guy showed him the drawing. "someone likes you!!" He said, as he gave the sketchbook to Miles. Miles just threw it in the trashcan. "Bullshit." He said, and walked away. For some reason, I felt hurt. He just threw my drawing with the trash. A few popular girls giggled. "Pathetic." One said, and the others started to insuilt me. I tried my best not to cry, as I ran out of the cafetaria. I could hear Erlin running after me. "Autumn! Wait!" She yelled. I bursted out of tears, as I cried. I hid myself into a toilet cubicle. I changed into my Spidersuit, as I get out. I swing out of the school, and through the city. As I swung, I cried under my mask. I felt so hurt.

I got to sit on a roof, as I stared at the sunset. It was beautiful. I hated this world, I hated this life. I putted my mask off, as I cried in my hands. I had nothing to do now, so I got to a supermarket, buying a snack and some soda. People wanted to take photos with me, and my signature. I smiled softly, and felt a little bit better. Once I was done being social, I swung home. I layed down on my bed, as I opened the can. I took a sip. I didn't care if i'd skip school. I could just tell my parents that I didn't felt well. I took a good breath, and started to eat my snack.
