Conflicting Error

Somehow we managed to straighten things out, me and Ley that is, a few days passed since the Ley was kind of mad thing, but the atmosphere between us was kind of awkward and tense but somehow we could talk with one another just like always but this time there was that kind of awkward atmosphere but it didn't bugged me in anyway and so I just acted like how I usually acted around her.

One morning me, Abad and Leo were talking with one another, as new guy friends in the classroom, we huddled up to talk and we tried to get to know one another

Abad: So Lee are there any girls that interest you in this room?

Hearing that question I was very surprised, my mind just went blank and I couldn't think of anything, it's like my mind lagged, I was in a freeze. What brought me back to reality was the deafening voice of Leo shouting right next to my ear, calling out my name if I was alright

Leo: LEE!
Me: Ah!~ (Snaps out) oh hey don't shout at me like that jeez
Leo: you were spacing out we had to check if you were okay
Abad: yeah, you seem off after hearing that question of mine
Me: Who me? Nah I wasn't off, I was thinking of something
Abad: (grins) Something or someone? Eeeyyyyy
Leo: oh oh oh I want to hear that "someone" eeey

I was getting ganged up, Abad was furiously repeating the question over and over again, "whom do I like, I thought to myself" the noisy voice of both Abad and Leo started shrinking into utter silence, as I focused my view on Ley who was looking out the window, she was kind of sad and kind of not her, it did make me feel sad as well seeing Ley not herself

"You're looking at Ley right?" that statement snapped me back before I knew it Leo said that I was blushing, I covered my face with my handkerchief and tried shrugging it off, both of them, Leo and Abad, were giggling and teasing me that I was in love with Ley, I was so embarrassed of the fact that they noticed me looking at her and now I am being teased. I just started saying "stop it guys this ain't funny"

But they didn't stop anyway they kept continuing to tease me for like 3 minutes or so, after that it became quiet, and Leo removed my hand that was covering my face and asked "Seriously? Do you like her?"

Again another question that echoed deep in my head, and I was again awe struck with the view of Ley, I suddenly stood up when Abad told me "I'm going to tell Ley that you have a crush on her if you don't start talking" I was in a pinch I didn't know what to do at that moment, and in that same moment, the unspoken phenomenon appears, I get to choose, between whether I should tell them how I feel about Ley or just ley Abad tell Ley about my feelings, and of course for the sake of not wanting to embarrass myself I chose to tell them what I felt about Ley, and so I caught the attention of Abad, and pulled Leo closer in order to tell them my feelings for Ley

And yes I have a crush on her, but I just can't tell her that, I'm afraid that she might reject, and that's exactly what I told the guys about her, Abad stopped his intentions of telling Ley my feelings and just tapped my shoulder saying "bro just confess to her already"

Me: What?! Are you insane, me confessing to her?
Abad: Well yeah what's there to fear about?
Leo: Besides you guys or close, maybe she likes you too
Me: I don't like to expect nor assume that, and I don't want her to avoid me just because I have feelings for her I'm fine as we are right now
Leo: are you sure about that Lee? You know some people might get to her first because you didn't get to tell her your feelings
Abad: You might regret it Lee if you don't tell her how you feel now

I thought about it for a while, what they are telling me is true, I wouldn't know when she'd be taken by somebody else and of course I wouldn't know who is interested in her in that moment

I took a deep breath and just sighed, and said to them "At the very least if I get to see her happy then I'm happy, I just hope that whoever get her would take care of her"

"Then be that someone that would take care of her" says Leo, I replied "I can't do that, I couldn't take care of her, I am far from compatible being with her, she deserves better"

The three of us went to a pause, it was silent indeed and we just glared at each other, but both of my friends only glared at me, it was uncomfortable and it feels like there was this pinching feeling in my chest, I guess that I'm a bit hurt, cause I know that I have no chance of being with Ley.

Then the unexpected happened, before the three of us knew it, Ley was standing near our circle "Yo" she said

All three of us were startled at that moment, Leo and Abad tried making excuses that we were just talking about some particular subject and it was nothing to worry about, but we almost have been caught red handed when Ley said "What are you talking about, about me being snatched by someone who's interested in me?"

Uh oh, that was the only reaction that we could only think of, to think that our conversation was heard by Ley herself, we don't know if our voices were too loud or Ley had just good sense of hearing enough to hear us from afar, there was only one thing to do and that was get out of the situation, Leo acted out that he was being called by someone outside, Abad tried talking with others in order to divert Ley's attention, that's right to me so that the both of them get off the hook if ever the plan was busted, and so Ley attacked me with her questions "What are you guys talking about earlier? Would you tell me? What's this about me anyway? And I stood there speechless as she bombarded me with her questions, I stood there silent and tried to think of a way that would get me out of the situation, luckily Nix called out to me and I was able to escape smoothly, I just told Ley that next time I'll tell her what we were talking about, I pat her shoulders and went to Nix

I took a deep breath, finally I was out of danger "You okay?" Nix asked, "yeah I'm okay" I answered back, I thanked Nix for the backup, she said that It was no problem, but then she told me that "I think you should tell her about your feelings"

At first I was shocked on how Nix knew about my feelings about Ley, could it be that she heard about the conversation of us three boys, or she could of asked the two of them after we were done talking, mostly likely it was none of the two options I have thought of, simply she just said that "It was plainly obvious from the start that you like her" I just sat and blushed, my face beat red and I feel like my face was kind of in heat "oh no she's coming this way" says Nix, she calmly sat down and read a book, and I was left out in the air, in fear of what Ley may have in store for me, as I was ready to accept my fate, I closed my eyes calmly and prepared for the worst, but instead what I got was a note left on my desk, it piqued my curiosity and so did Nix's, I stared at the piece of paper, and Nix poked me while saying "Well what are you waiting for? Read it!" and so I took the paper and slowly opened it up, I didn't know what to feel when I read "Meet me upstairs near the other section's room", I was left like oh my gosh
