"Now, what should we call you guys? Lethan, perhaps? Ooo! How about Le-an?" Abby smirked at me, mocking confusion.
"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked bewildered.
"You, and Leo. Now that you're a going concern, you guys need a ship name."
My cheeks started burning as I whisper-shouted, "Shh!"
Her lips curled into a devious smile. "Oh, you don't want everyone to know about your little secret?"
"No. I do not," I grumbled, embarrassed.
"Fine. I'll keep your new boyfriend a secret," she relented, obviously amused at my "little secret..."
"He's not my boyfriend," I growled.
"Are you sure about that? Because Will told me you and Leo were rather...friendly at the group yesterday," she asked feigning innocence.
"Will you stop? It's so embarrassing," I groaned as I dropped my head on a shelf in my locker, my whole face burning with embarrassment.
"Fine, I'll stop," she relented begrudgingly. "I think it's rather adorable, actually." She grinned at me, amusement dancing in her eyes.
"What's rather adorable? Is it a puppy? Oo! I love puppies! Please tell me it's a puppy!?" squealed my new boyfriend, apparently.
My heart picked up in my chest as I pulled my head out of my locker and looked at Leo.
A half grin tilted his lips, his bright hazy blue eyes -which had turned into a beautiful baby color- were dancing with excitement.
"Umm..." I bit my lip.
Leo's gaze traveled down to my mouth for a few seconds, then he dragged his eyes back up to mine, his grin widening.
"It's not a puppy, unfortunately, but it's something much more exciting," Abby responded, a mischievous look in her eyes.
"What's more exciting than an adorable puppy? Is it a kitten?" Leo was practically vibrating with excitement at seeing a puppy or a kitten. Honestly, it was adorable how excited about animals he got.
"Oh, just you 2." Abby glanced down at her nails, seemingly only partially invested in this conversation, her smile turning downright devilish.
Leo glanced at me with an eyebrow raised. Apparently, he noticed my embarrassment of this whole conversation, and he attempted to defend me by feigning confusion. "What about us?"
"It's fine Leo; she knows," I blurted out.
"She knows what?" Leo asked with his own devious grin.
"Umm..." I bit my lip again, not knowing what else to say.
"Doesn't he look so adorable when he blushes?" Leo turned to Abby, a devious grin on his lips as he searched for Abby's agreeance. Which she openly gave.
Oh God, don't flirt with me in front of Abby.
Him saying that, made my cheeks burn hotter as I pretended to dig for something in my locker.
"He kinda does, actually. Especially when his whole face turns bright red," Abby teased.
When will the bell ring, so I can leave this conversation?
"That's completely true, but you can't call my man adorable-" he paused to send a wink at me-"only I can."
The only part of that whole sentence I focused on was Leo calling me his man.
Did that mean he was officially calling me his boyfriend or was he just joking about it?
