___________________________
Andre Harris considered himself to be many things but an overthinker wasn't one of them.
Until he met a girl that he's genuinely interested in.
He didn't know why she exactly caught his attention but he did know that her beauty was obviously the first thing he noticed. How could he not? Not to be a creep but he could stare at her all day if he needed too and would get bored nor tired of her angelic features. He can get lost in her eyes and he has a few times, unable to stop himself from doing so.
But could he be blamed? No. Ciro's eyes are pretty and though she isn't the only one with those colour eyes, he liked the colour best on her.
Her plump lips called to him like a siren just as her eyes did but so did her smile.
How could a smile be so damn pretty? How could a smile turn him into mush and have him stumbling over his words? How could a smile make his heart skip a beat?
Why did her smile do all of that?
The second thing that he noticed was her style.
She seemed to prefer baggy clothing alot more and she knew exactly how to style them as well. Never has he seen her in a bad outfit but even the pants that he has disliked for years seems to look good on her.
Is it because she knows how to style the pants or was it because that it was her wearing them? He's not sure yet.
The third was her voice.
Oh how he could listen to her talk and talk, hours on end and not get tired of her nor it.
Ciro's not really talker, atleast until you get to know her but even then, there are times when she feels like she's talked too much and goes back to talking less. She's interesting, she's funny and she's a very confident person but not when it came to everything.
She seems to enjoy physical touch and it was something he enjoyed as well.
The way that she handles herself, her life and her kids was admirable along with her love for family.
Andre adores the way she was always quick to take a poptart and eat it, he adores the way that she could sleep just about anywhere, he adores the way her face lit up at the sight of cranberry juice and he adores the way she rolls her eyes or manspreads while crossing her arms.
He just adores her.
Saturday night, she told him everything about her past and his respect for her had only seemed to grow. He knows she needed space after telling him all of that and that she hopefully didn't hate him.
But yesterday, she had replied to his messages him only about five times.
Because she needed space right? That was it right? They're still....friends or whatever they are right?
The male takes a deep breath from his now regular spot, leaning against the door of the entrance as he waited for Ciro, poptart in hand.
He was nervous, fearing for the worse. But trying to relax himself at the same time.
As he tilts his head to the side slightly, he spots Ciro walking towards his way and he perks up. She had what seemed to be a iced coffee in hand and she seemed to have gotten her hair done.
The male believed that it suited her so perfectly but anything suited her to be honest. And her her outfit is perfect as well, as always.
[That bag is how I picture her actual school bag.]
When her eyes fell onto the male, she felt liked running the other way. Why? She didn't know. She felt weird after she told him everything and he'd still stuck around.
It's been awhile since that happened, it was weird to her.
She took a deep breath as she continues to walk his way, feeling bad for how she texted him so little yesterday. And she's hoping to make up for it.
"Morning," she says softly when she had reached the male, watching as his eyes lit up. "Morning," he replies with a smile as he handed her a poptart. "Thank you," she lets out as her lips twitched up. This seem to be a regular thing now.
Him giving her poptart every morning. It was oddly cute to her.
"You're welcome," Andre stated, happy that she's not avoiding him today as he had thought she would.
Maybe she did infact just need a bit of time after telling him all of that which he can understand as it was alot.
As the two walked towards their class, they walked closely, so much so that their hands would brush against each others. Neither of them pulled away or made a move to do so, they just left it.
"I uh brought you lunch today," Ciro says suddenly causing the male to blink at her words as his head snapped over to her. "Think of it as an apology for my lack of messages yesterday," she adds softly as she looks his way, their eyes meeting as the male felt his heart melt into his chest.
He just wanted to hug her and he didn't know why. "It's fine and thank you, I'll finally get to try your cooking," he jokes making Ciro snort and his lips tugged up at the sound.
God, he loves that sound.
.....
Loves?
The male nearly tripped over his feet at that and took a deep breath as he looks away from the girl near him. It's just a laugh, he just likes the sound of it. That's it. Right?
"I like your hair," he mutters. "I mean I always like your hair but you normally just have your natural hair out, nothing is wrong with that of course. That's not what I meant," he rambles as his heart started to hammer in his chest.
Hoping that he wasn't fucking and giving her the wrong idea.
Because he's not trying to say that her hair looks nice since it's in twists when her hair always looks nice. "I get what you mean," Ciro says while her shoulder brushes against his and their hands once again brushed against each others.
"Thank you," she adds. "I like it too, my best friend did it for me yesterday," she contiunes and he nods his head at that. "You're welcome and that's nice of him," he says softly.
He wonders if her friend is a hairstylist as there are males that braid hair and such. If so, he's good and if not, then he is really good.
A soft snort passes Ciro's lips as Andre huffed dramatically, turning away from her after she ignored the note that he'd placed on her desk.
"Awe, are you mad at me?" She coos out at the male who felt his cheeks heat up at her playful words. "No," he muttered and she practically hear that Andre was pouting.
It made her amusement only grow.
Maybe I do actually like him, she thinks as he glances her way before turning his head more away, making her lips twitch upwards. "Okay okay, I'll read ya note," she says and he instantly turned back her way with a grin now on his lips.
The sight made Ciro's heart skip a beat as she looks away from him, starting to unfold the note.
Neither noticed and annoyed Tori eying them in distaste, a frown on her lips as she pursed her lips.
She didn't hate the girl but she didn't like the way that she was taking up all of the male's attention. It wasn't fair as he had started sitting with her and her brothers at lunch, not sitting with her and all the others.
He didn't answer her messages anymore and Beck said that Andre didn't or would barely answer his as well.
Tori didn't ask the others if Andre was texting them because she knew that he wasn't. If he was barely texting her, he would also barely text them as well.
Right?
Hopefully she'll get to talk with him in Sikowitz's class.
"You'll fall for me, soon. Just wait, I can wait as well, I'm rather patient." The Harris male says as his eyes locked onto Ciro's own as she arches a brow.
They were in Sikowitz's class and Ciro's not sure what the hell the male told his students to do since she wasn't listening but she didn't expect Andre to kneel on the floor infront of her, take her hand in his and say those words.
Oddly, she didn't think that Andre was acting.
Not right now.
And that made her heart race, especially with the way he was gazing up at her.
The others in the classroom watched the two silently, Tori standing not too far as she crossed her arms, lips in a thin line.
When Sikowitz said to say those words to someone and sound like you mean it, she didn't expect Andre to go to Ciro. He didn't even know her like that for him to say such words to her.
She hasn't been here for a month yet, so why did he go to her?
Worse of all, he did sound like he meant what he said.
Next to Tori stood Jade who was trying to hold back her laughter as best as she could. She saw the way that Tori seemed to perk up when Andre got up from his spot after Sikowitz said what he did and it was obvious to her that Tori believed that Andre would say those words to her for some reason.
Jade also watched as Tori's face had fell when Andre didn't even glance her way.
It had made Jade grin.
Ciro leans down towards Andre's face slightly causing the male to struggle to mantain eye contact with the stunning teen before him. "Oh really? That was rather bold of you, hm?" She muttered as Andre felt his heart skip a beat, his cheeks heating up.
Another point to melanin, he thinks to himself.
"What happened to my shy Andre, hm?" Ciro coo's out causing the male to shyly look away from her.
My shy Andre.
She called him, her's.
Did she mean that?
"He-he's still here," he grumbles out as he glances her way nervously while she chuckles. "Good," she says softly as she leans in closer towards his face, making his breath hitch as Tori and Beck seems to both frown.
The male looks away from the sight and at his girlfriend who has barely looked at hin during class today. She seemed to be avoiding him and he was annoyed by the fact.
Why couldn't they just go back to being happy?
"Glad to hear it," Ciro states as she sat back, her eyes never leaving his own. "That was unfair," Andre groaned out while he rested his head against her thigh, making her smirk as she rubs his cheek gently. "Mhm sure. You literally wrote me a note asking me to write a sound with you but you couldn't ask me face to face?" She stated in amusement and Andre just buries his face into her thigh.
His eyes closes as he enjoys the feeling of her hand carressing his cheek, not at all caring about the others in the classroom or the fact that class was still going on.
He really liked it when Ciro showed him affection.
"Oh well, I guess my work here is done," Sikowitz mutters to himself as he sips on his coconut with a smile tugging at his lips.
