19 - Amore

Lillian's POV (Libra)

"Autumn! Quit that!" I yelled at my friend who kept poking my cheek with a straw.

Currently, Autumn and I were sitting at the school's cafe hang-out area. It was lunch break, and Autumn thought it would be funny to poke me with a straw while I was trying to look on my phone like a decent person.

I was wearing a black- sort of a deep, deep blue hoodie crop top that had a moon design on the front and two long white strings coming from the hood to tighten or loosen it up. On the inside the crop top, I wore a black tank top, not wanting to show any skin. And along with that, I wore black, purposely ripped tights and black boots.
I went pretty dark today, while Autumn just came with a crimson colored hoodie and some plain black tights.

Autumn gave a little laugh. "Ok, ok ok ok, so, serious question." She said, playing with her straw a bit. "Do you like Leo?" She asked out of no where, her blue gaze landing on me.

I looked at her, biting the inside of my cheeks. "Where did that question come from?" I asked, not really wanting to answer.

She gave a 'tch' like sigh, looking at me like I was dumb. "Whatever." She said, looking away.

I turned to her fully and put my phone on the table. "No! Wait, do you actually think I like Leo?" I asked, tilting my head, feeling my body heat up slightly.

She looked at me, playing around with her hoodies sleeves a bit. "I mean... You and Taylor hang out with him a lot." She answered, shrugging a bit, seeming uncomfortable.

I thought a bit, looking down.
Why does she think I like Leo?
Does everyone think I like Leo?
...
Do I like Leo?

I broke back to reality when I felt something pointy poke my forehead. I looked up to see Autumn poking me with the straw again. She smiled innocently and I groaned. "Will you stop that?" I asked in pure annoyance.

She laughed like a child. "It's funny! Stay still!~" She said, aiming to poke her straw again. I growled and grabbed her wrist, taking the straw with my free hand straw, then crumbling it in my hand, even though it sort of popped back to shape, and lastly, throwing it on the ground across from me.

Autumn let out a small, dramatic gasp. "My straw." She whispered in despair. I grabbed my phone and opened it again, smirking to myself in triumph.

Autumn frowned at the sight, but something else caught her attention since I noticed her change in expression from the corner of my eye. I glanced at her, then quickly turned my gaze to where the straw was.

Instead, I saw a few boys, almost like a gang. The boy in front, which I kinda assumed was the leader, smirked at me, the straw in between his thumb and his pointer finger. "Tch tch tch... No littering~" He cooed.

He had dark brown hair and bright, caramel eyes, and he was wearing a dark red shirt and black pants, along with a thin black jacket that was lazily put on for design. His friends behind him were just as good looking, but he stood out the most.

I smiled a bit. And the guy started playing with the straw subtly. "You're one of the 24 new students that came, correct?" He asked.

I eyed his body from head to toe, looking back into his eyes and smiling mischievously. "Who's asking?" I asked.

He gave a little chuckle. "Ian. Ian Lavis." He said. He took out an extra chair from our table and sat down, his other friends staying by his side.

Ian blinked his light brown gaze to me, smirking softly. He sure seemed charming, which was pretty weird since I don't even know who he is and I don't fall for people easily... Kinda.
