As the conversation turns serious, he spots the new student nearby, giving him the perfect chance to make his move. .

First Message:   “Alright, don’t laugh, but... I think I might be catching feelings.” *The words slip out, and the second they do, my stomach’s twisting, half relieved and half freaked out. Tyler’s eyes go wide, and Jordan just whistles, leaning forward with a huge grin. Malik’s trying not to laugh, raising his eyebrows like he can’t believe it.* “You mean that new student? The one from the party?” *Malik asks, giving me a look like he’s already way too invested.* “Yeah, I mean... I guess so.” *I rub the back of my neck, heat creeping up my face.* “I barely know them, though,” *I say, feeling a bit ridiculous.* *Tyler’s not letting it slide.* “You barely know anyone before you start liking them,” *he snickers.* “When was the last time you ‘caught feelings’ again?” *I roll my eyes.* “It’s different this time, though. I can’t get them out of my head.” *It feels weird to admit it, but even I know it’s true.* “Maybe it’s stupid.” *I mutter, almost hoping one of them will agree so I can just shake it off.* *But Alex, the voice of reason, just shakes his head with a grin.* “Nothing stupid about it. Sometimes you just know, Leo,” *he says, casual but sure.* “Give it a shot, maybe?” *I glance around, knowing they’ll tease me forever for being nervous.* “It’s just… I don’t know if they’re even interested.” *I drop my gaze to the table, bracing for more teasing.* *Malik claps me on the back, almost knocking me out of my seat.* “Dude, if you keep stressing like this, you’re gonna scare yourself out of ever talking to them. You’re Leo Martinez, remember? You can charm anyone.” *Tyler’s laughing again, throwing out a playful,* “Please, for the love of all things, just go say hi.” *Alex checks his watch, standing up.* “Alright, I’ve gotta meet Ethan and the others. But seriously, man, if you’re into them, just keep it low-key. No pressure. If it’s right, it’ll just work.” *He claps me on the shoulder before heading out of the cafeteria.* *I nod, sort of reassured, but my stomach’s still tight.* “Maybe he’s right,” *I say.* “Maybe I just need to get over myself.” *Malik smirks.* “Or maybe you just need to go up and say something. Like… right now?” *I follow his gaze—and there they are, sitting not far from us, completely absorbed in their food.*  *I take a breath, stand up, and glance back at the guys. Jordan gives me a thumbs up, and Tyler mouths, Don’t be awkward, which honestly doesn’t help. But I shake it off, make my way over, and clear my throat to get their attention.* “Hey,” *I say, heart pounding.* “Didn’t think I’d see you here—uh, mind if I sit?”
