A very short chapter as a shout out to everyone who commented, texted about my book🥂
^^^
Luca's POV
As we got to school
Tee and I went to our lockers
as Rosa and Thomas went to principals office
I learned that our Principal was one of them
Maybe that's why they never got in trouble when they skipped school
As we reached the lockers
"So tell me Lucaboy, why were you so red like a tomato when you to the car and
why you and Rosa were secretly eying each other in the car?" Tee asked with a smirk
As if she caught me doing something so evil
"Nothing" I dismissed her
"But am your bestfriend and we..." her annoyed acting was cut by a bell
RIIIINGGGG!!
Saved by the bell
"I will tell you, i promise But for now we have to go to class otherwise we will get chased out of class before we even learn anything today"

Today was really some other day, well not different from others in any significant way,
but also nothing like any day before.
For starters,
Every student were pointing at us and gossiping,Â
well i wonder what happened
Secondly, It felt like I couldn't not notice Rosa.
No matter where she was.
I couldn't even focus in all the class that we share
Luckily we don't share a lot, Just two.
Even if there were crowds of people talking over each other ,Â
as soon as I heard the sound of her voice talking with Thomas, my body tightened
head instinctively seeking out the source.
If i looked over a crowded hallway once the end of class bell run, I could always tell where she was in a crowd.
It wasn't intentional
in fact i was increasingly more disturbed as time went on and my heightened awareness of her didn't lessen.
The thing that really made me worry though, wasn't just my newly acquired ability to notice Rosa almost exclusively
It was the fact that she seemed to notice me too
Not worry in a bad way but actually a happy nervous way
When the sound of her voice made me instinctively seek her out, i could see her doing the same.
Almost as if we were playing some game of hide and seek, except there was no hiding; just seeking. Always.
Today we couldn't eat lunch with Rosa and Thomas
and it would have been a first time having lunch with Rosa🥲
So I later found out that the duo got Lunch detention after they fought with some other cliche badboy and Barbie's group because they said something about me and Tyler
^^^
There was just one class left before school is out.
"You will be going with Rosa home alone. Me and Tommy are going out" Tee whispered in a fake sorry voice
But her eyes said other thing, she was eying me in a mischievous way
"Stop, you little devil" I pushed her as i act like i was concentrating on what was being taught
But i knew i wasn't. Nervous flutters wrecked my stomach
as i touch my lips, reminded of how Rosa
the person who is destined to be my mate took my first kiss.
With that thought, i blushed very hard
"Aiigooo, you thinking of her ain't you?" She teased me as she turned back her focus
