As the lunch bell rang, Skylar gathered her belongings, pushed back her chair, and stood up. She then faced her friends.
"I'll catch ya'll after lunch, I have a tutor session in the library." She informed them and they pouted before nodding.
"Lunch is gonna be so boring now, nothing to talk about.." Jazmine let out a dramatic sigh and crossed her arms over her chest. Skylar rolled her eyes, exasperated by her friend's dramatic display.
"I doubt that Jazzy. Y'know that your twin is a certified yapper."
"Am not!"
Skylar and Jazmine laughed at Aria's offended tone. "Hope you enjoy lunch, but I'll catch ya'll later, I don't wanna be late to my own tutor session." She smiled at them and they nodded, "See you later then, Sky! We hope it goes well!"
With a final smile, Skylar exited the room. She then headed to her locker to store her belongings, retrieve her lunch, and gather the materials needed for her tutoring session.
With all her supplies gathered, she headed to the library, weaving through the crowded hallways. As she approached the entrance, a smile spread across her face when she spotted Miles.
"Hey, pretty boy."
Miles glanced up from his phone, a smirk spreading across his face as his eyes settled on her. "Hey, mami."
"Did you wait here long?" She entered the library, with Miles following after her.
"Nah."
She nodded, her eyes scanning the room for the person from her first period class. A small smile appeared when she finally spotted him.. "Okay so, my classmate name is Jayden but I call him 'Jay' for short and—!"
"You gave him a nickname?"
Skylar shot him a confused glance, wondering why he had suddenly cut her off. "Um, yeah? I give everyone nicknames." She said, as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.
Miles scowled.
He did not like that.
No more words were exchanged as Miles silently followed her, his mood tinged with jealousy.
"Jay!"
The sound of her pretty voice calling his name caused Miles' scowl to deepen. His gaze settled on the person he presumed was 'Jay', and he sized him up.
At the sound of his name, he looked up and smiled when his gaze landed on Skylar. But his expression quickly shifted to one of surprise as his eyes moved past the girl with the hot pink hair to the person standing behind her.
Miles Morales.
Skylar placed her belongings on the table and sat down in the open chair next to Jayden. "'M sorry for the last-minute notice, but Miles is joining us today." She said, Miles silently took the seat on the opposite side, leaving Skylar in the middle.
