Leo's POV

"I think Scott likes me," I said bluntly, I've been staring at the ceiling for the pass hour, trying to connect the dots in my head,

"Of course, Scott likes you, you're one of his best friends," Lydia answered back in a monotone voice, I rolled over and looked up at her, she had her face buried in her laptop, looking for lord knows what,

"No, I mean, Scott likes me, likes me," I said to her, emphasizing the point, she froze and glanced up from her laptop, and I nodded,

She sighed, close the lid and pushed it aside.

"Okay, now you have my full attention, spill," She told me, I sat up in the bed and faced her,

"Okay, remember how Scott was when he first met Allison?" I asked,

"A stupidly, happy, bumbling idiot," she said looking away and scrunching up her face,

"Yes, and he was really apprehensive around her, like he wasn't sure what to do next," I said slowly and she nodded,

"Mhm," She said,

"Then afterwards, when he got with Kira, he different, more experienced, chattier, willing to get involved despite not knowing, but cautious around her?" I asked, and Lydia glared at me,

"Your point being..." she trailed,

"Scott, being overtly cautious around me," I stated and she blinked at me,

"Okay? And how does that correlate to him liking you?" She asked,

"Because, each time he likes someone, he gets weird, he starts to tiptoe around them, like worries he'll chase them off, while fawning over them like a lost puppy, which is oddly endearing but still predictably, Scott," I told her, she paused and nodded to herself,

"And you think he's being like that... with you?" She asked and I nodded, "When? How?"

"After I told him about the Ghost Riders, she said he would lose me, like he lost Kira and Allison, then he panicked after I tried to martyr myself at the lacrosse game, and he gave me a weird look at the hospital last night," I told her,

"Normally, given the things we've seen and done, him being worried about you wouldn't raise any issues of concern," She said more so to herself than to me, then she looked me in the face and I saw the frown settle in her eyes, "But this is Scott, we're talking about,"

"Exactly, and that's only part of the problem," I said with a sigh as I flopped back in the bed,

"There's more?" She asked,

"Jordan!" I exclaimed,

"Oh, I see where this is going now," She said and I heard the smirk in her voice, so I groaned, "You have a very hot deputy, who you're hooking up with btw, on your beck and call, while also having a very attractive, above average, lacrosse player, who is now developing a crush on you, two for the price of one,"
