VALERIA POV (days later)

I'm in the school library reading my book sitting by the back shelves on the carpet.

"Hey Val!" I turn to see Ethan coming to sit down next to me.

Oh great, I guess he wants me in his bed now.

He probably got bored of Monique, for now.

"Can't, I'm on my period." I say reading my book.

"What? No." His eyebrows furrow

"Then what?" I look at him.

"I was thinking..." he mumbles.

"What?"

ETHAN POV

SHIT.

I'm not sure if I want to tell her now.

What if I just think I love her but I actually don't?

She's staring at me, waiting to hear what I have to say.

I don't know what to say now.

"Since thanksgiving is around the corner, I was thinking maybe we can all have friends giving together?" I say trying to make it seem like that's what I was going to say.

"Of course." She seems satisfied.

She goes back to reading her book like nothing is bothering her.

"So.." I say.

She sighs and looks at me again.

"Need anything else?"

God she's so intimidating but it's sexy as hell.

I just want to grab her and...

"Ethan?"

"Yeah?" I snap out of it.

"What else do you need?"

"Oh, nothing." I say getting up

"Okayyyy." She seems a little embarrassed.

"Well uhhh, I'll see ya around." I start leaving.

She smiles.

Crap!

I'm so stupid!

I should've just told her!

Ethan, you are so stupid!

VALERIA POV

I walk with Alondra and Maria to Alondra's house.

"You and Jake a thing now?" I ask Alondra and see her blush.

"You and Ethan a thing now?" She asks and makes me blush.

"I asked you first." I smile.

"No technically we've been asking you first!" Maria laughs

Shit. They have a point.

"I don't know" I slump down on Alondra's bed.

"Is someone in love?" Alondra sits next to me.

"But what if he doesn't feel the same way about me?" I put a pillow over my face.

"Val, maybe you should ask him." Maria says

"What? Why me?" I get up with wide eyes.

"Yes! What if he does feel the same way but he's afraid you don't feel the same way, just like you!" Maria explains.
