-Emilia Diaz-

*TW*

I wake up to the sound of my alarm and sigh, yesterday when I was at the cafe Ethan kept spacing out for some reason.

And every time I called his name he looked like he had just been back to reality

I wonder what he was thinking about, I bet you do. What? Oh, nothing.

I get up and rub my eyes going to shower and do my skin care putting on baggy jeans a tank top then a sweater over it since it's getting colder out now

I sit down at my vanity and start doing my makeup and then my hair putting it in a ponytail and leaving small strands of hair out

Putting earrings in, bracelets on along with necklaces my eyes linger over to Ethan's jersey that's peaking out of where I've hidden it.

I get up and grab it staring at it, when there's a knock on my door I panic and hide it behind my back

Leo opens my door "I was asked to check on you" he said and I nodded my head clearing my throat

"Yeah- uh thanks." I say and Leo stared at me "what's behind your back?" He asked, my eyes widened "what? Oh? Nothing just-" I don't know what to say.

"Emilia, what are you hiding." He asked, I bite my lip not wanting to show the jersey, but I'm lying.

"Emilia.." Leo says staring at me skeptically I sighed and was about to say something when the jersey fell out of my hand.

Wonderful.

Leo's eyes find the jersey that's behind me and I decide to kick it under the bed nearly loosing my balance.

"Emilia." He says "don't say anything." I pleaded and Leo grinned at me "whose jersey." He asked

I scoffed "why does it have to be someone's jersey? Maybe it's a shirt." I say

"A shirt that you're hiding?" He asked, I bit my lip again and I sighed going under my bed and grabbing the jersey.

Showing it to Leo.

"Hernandez." He reads the name on the jersey "kids got a good last name." He said

"Please tell me you do not find the last name attractive."

"You said it, not me."

I stare at Leo with my jaw slightly dropped as he just causally walks out of my room.

I sigh and shake my head hiding the jersey before continuing to get ready for school, I fix the septum piercing before putting what I need in my bag and going downstairs grabbing a Celsius from the fridge

Then all of a sudden it's taken out of my hand "I- hey-" my father holds the Celsius in his hand and I frown

"You need to start drinking more water, Em" he tells me and I frown

"But what if I can't pay attention in class and fall asleep." I say and I get handed a water bottle that I take with a frown

"Where's mom?" I asked papà as he gets stuff out for breakfast "upstairs, she's not going into work today and neither am I" he said (dad)

"Oh? Why not" I asked opening the water bottle "she's not feeling good, woke up with a fever, so I'll drive you to school" he said and I hum

Ethan's still suspended from school until sometime this week I believe.

I eat breakfast when it's done, my father goes upstairs to give my mother her breakfast and medicine

Then comes back down to drop me off to school Eliana is sadly sick again.
