Aries: The One Who Stole My Heart
give him a compliment?I glanced up and saw Leo's lips were curved up with an amused smile. He realized he was staring again.
"Sorry... um," he cleared his throat. "Okay, I won't tell this incident to anybody, only if you go on a date with me."
"What? Why?" I asked, confused.
"Because I think we should, don't you think so?"
"No. We shouldn't." I said firmly, "and stay away from me."
"Well, I can't," he shrugged, "I'll stumble into you since we have chemistry," he said. "And math," he added quickly.
"I've to go." I went to stand, but fell back immediately and clutched my stomach with a groan. The sting in my gut made me realize that I needed help getting up.
"What happened?" He asked with concern in his voice. "Shit! Did they...punch you?"
"Yes," I choked out. The half-empty plastic bottle in his hand was getting crushed, violently, any harder, and the container would burst out. He was angry. I glanced up at him, watching him run a hand through his hair.
I tried to stand up again, taking the support of the wall. Leo wanted to help. I could feel it, so he raised his hand to hold me.
"No, I can do it," I quickly denied his offer. I slid up my back and pulled myself in an upright standing position. I was feeling a severe headrush.
As I was trying to walk out, Leo stood up, picked up my backpack, and stepped out of the stall.
"Are you feeling okay? You don't look so good." He mentioned.
I just stared at him blankly. He looked confused and blurry.
"Leo." My voice was barely a whisper.
"Woh!" Leo exclaimed. Those were the last words I heard before everything went black in front of my eyes.

A Glimpse On Leo's P.O.V.
In the chemistry lab, Leo was just about to walk inside the room, when his eyes immediately spotted that girl in a hoodie from yesterday. Internally he was giddy with excitement, like a happy dog wagging his tail. Leo leaned at the door and appraised her beauty, her innocence from afar with interest. She minded her own business - reading at her textbook, tapping the end of a pencil on her cheek. Leo also observed something curious about her, not once has she looked up at anyone or surveyed her surroundings. She just kept herself preoccupied the whole time. He wanted a good reason, an excuse to talk to her, to get close to her. But how?
Finally, he walked towards her and stood next to her table. She peeked at him from underneath the hood and blinked twice as she was surprised.
"Hi," Leo greeted her.
'God she's so beautiful from up close, I could gaze at her all day.'
She too stared back at him. Leo wondered if only he could read her mind. He leaned a little closer and inhaled the air surrounding her.
'Mine.' He almost growled.
Her eyes were blue just like him, he noticed, but seemed more intense now, maybe because he was standing too close to her.
She blinked again as if she came out of a trance. Leo realized he needed to talk, so he asked her for a pair of gloves. When she asked him what size, Leo was dumbfounded. Her accent swayed him, and before he could give her an answer, she'd already found a pair and handed him.
Leo thought that she might have handed him the wrong size, so he told her that he needs a large size, and she giggled.
Her sound had a strange effect on him. It was the sweetest melody he'd heard. He thought that her face blossomed with cuteness when she did that.
She was beautiful, hands down absolutely gorgeous, and she wasn't like other girls in the school, who always tried to flaunt their beauty or much like others who mask their faces with makeup. She was simply beautiful.
Her scent was driving him crazy, sped his heart to race, from being so close to her. He felt what mates feel when they find their real mate, sending them into a frenzy of excitement, and Leo felt it strongly. He was coming in his prime state, spikes extending.
He wanted to grab her and sink his canines and break that vein in her neck, seeped his essence in her blood, and declared her as his.
"I'm.." Leo wanted to introduce himself to be her close confidant, but Mrs. Roger interrupted the class.
"Do you mind?" Leo snarled at Mrs. Roger.
The whole class went shocked in the wake.
"Go to your table. Now." Mrs. Roger yelled.
Leo clenched his fist and glared at the teacher and went back to find an empty table.

During the class, Leo watched her looking or maybe searching for something or someone. She was fidgeting a lot. After a couple of minutes, Leo again saw her looking over her left shoulder, and when her eyes met with Leo's, she seemed tensed up, nervous when their gazes met, Leo had a tsunami in his mind - 'Shit, I scared her too.'
No. wait, did she just try to hide her smile so I won't see it. Oh... but I did notice that, girl. Pretending to look for me and then hiding the smile - god, that was so adorable of her to do that.
'I love chemistry.' He thought, his tail swinging happily again.

There was something very intrigued about her. Leo couldn't help but had his eyes fixed on her—well, at her backside, and his eyes stayed glued on her glutes.
'Nice!' He groaned as he felt something inside him as he checked her out.
'Damn Leo, get your dirty mind somewhere else, you’re in the class, and you definitely don’t want your PDA in your pants, now do you?' The voice within said.
‘Fine.’ Leo shifted his gaze to look out the window.
He couldn't wait for the class to be over, he planned to catch her and maybe walk with her so he could talk more. But as soon as the bell rang, she was out the door. While rushing out, she managed to drop something of hers. Leo saw that as
