Avelyn's POV
After I finished, I quickly left the classroom, not wanting to hear anyone's opinions on my poem. I was far too bashful and insecure to hear a negative comment, so I opted for the hit and run method. Once the boys realized this, they followed me to meet Xavier -- Cole speeding up to reach me and grab my bag. We eventually got to Xavier's classroom and began our journey to the cafeteria. On the way, I saw Sarah and decided to invite her to eat with us. Though she seemed on the fence at first because of the guys' presence, she eventually decided she'd join us. We all played for our food and found a table.
And that's where we are now, sitting at the table and chatting mindlessly.
"So, your guys' poem were great," Coco comments. And before I get the chance to mutter a thank you, he continues.
"And common, dude," he playfully hit Ash on the arm. "How could you one-up me like that? Totally not fair." Ash chuckles at his pouty face; as do I.
"What are you guys talking about?" Sarah questions.
"Oh nothing, just how we had to share poems and shit in Mrs. Baldwin's class," Ash answers.
"Yeah, and how Ashton basically serenaded
Avelyn in front of everybody. Not fair, now he seems like the romantic one," Cole huffs, crossing his arms over his chest like a kid throwing a tantrum.
"Yeah, Cole's right. That isn't fair. Especially because I didn't get to write Avelyn a poem," Xavier agrees, and I giggle. He turns his attention to me and says, "But don't worry, princess. You'll get your love poem soon enough. You can bet on that." He winks at me, and I flush a deep scarlet.
"Soo..." Sarah drawls, and I turn my head to give her my attention.
"Yeah?" I ask.
"Are you guys, like, a thing?" She finishes.
"What do you mean?" Xavier asks, and she blushes at his attention.
"Y'know, are you guys dating? Like all of you?" I look to the boys because I honestly have no clue. They seem to have the same thoughts as I do, but Ashton is the one to answer, speaking for all of us then himself.
"We don't know yet. But I personally wouldn't be opposed to it." I direct my gaze to him, completely flabbergasted.
'Did he really just say he'd date me? In front of the other boys, no less?'
But Xavier and Cole don't seem to mind, as big grins begin to form on their handsome faces.
"Yeah, none of us would mind, actually," Xavier chimes, and Cole nods in agreement.
"Wait, do you guys mean, like, individually or all together?" Sarah asks, looking completely baffled.
"We-," Ashton's voice is cut off by the bell, and unlike last time, I'm irritated and far from relieved. I actually really wanted to hear what Ashton had to say. Damnit, these stupid bells.
"How about we talk about this later." Xavier's request is directed towards me, so I nod in reply. We trek our way to gym, which I'm not too excited for. Mr. Brown ruined it for me.
When we arrived, Sarah and I split up from my boys so we can all change. Once her and I have done just that, and we're about to head back into the gym, she stops me. There are only a few girls left in the locker room at this time, so I guess she decided now would be a good time to comment on what happened at lunch.
