I look up quickly, to see Robin. With his hand stuffed in his pockets, he was rocking back and forth on his heels looking towards the sky.

"Yeah, they are, they are very beautiful actually" I say, staring up at the sky. He sighs, and sits down next to me. "Y/N" he says confidently, "Robin" I say, kinda anxious.

"Do you know what an anti-romantic is?" He kinda whispers it. "Yeah I do, why?" I say looking at him, noticing his pretty features. "I think I'm an anti-romantic , I just don't think most people are interesting. I only kinda like one person , but I don't think you know them." He says staring directly at me.

My heart kinda drops, I know I said I wouldn't fall in love, but I'm starting to think I lied.

"Oh yeah, pfttt, I understand!" I say nervously good going Y/N, you totally blew it. I mentally face-palmed. "Great! Thanks for understanding me!" He says with a bright smile.

Robin ended up walking me home, in a cute cliche totally platonic way. We were laughing at each others jokes when he stopped suddenly "What happened? Like at the party?" He says scrunching his nose. "Just some girl drama, it's a mess honestly" I say laughing it off. He giggled at my laughs. "I was just wondering, I mean I saw you run off so instantly, I mean me and Finn were totally-" I cut him off  "Thank you, Robin, for worrying about me. I don't know what I'd do without you" I embrace him in the sweetest hug.

"Goodbye, Y/N"

"Ciao, Robin"

I wake up to the sweet smell of waffles my mom must've made them. I get dressed after a quick shower and walk downstairs. "H-" I immediately stop. I'm greeted with something extremely unexpected. It was a random guy. "Hey so.. something kinda happened between your mom? " he said shaking his hands. "What?" I say, obviously confused. "Nah kiddo, I'm just messing with ya! Your moms sleeping, and I'm her new boyfriend! It's a pleasure to meet you" he says holding out his hand. "Yeah, I gotta get going.." I say kinda awkwardly. "Alright, bye!" He says waving to me. There's no WAY he's straight.  I say to myself, on accident.

"There's my girl! How ya doing?" I hear Donna say, I have forgive her since the party incident, it wasn't really a big deal, honestly. "Great! You?" "Perfect, dear! I heard some gosssssippppp! You gotta hear!! It's about... you!" She says excitedly. I tremble at the last sentence "its about... you!" I hear constantly replaying in my head until Donna starts talking.

"Someone is head-over-heels for you!" She says grabbing my shoulders. I sigh "Who?" "You'll never believe me, but it's Robin!" I gasp. "That's just a rumor, he doesn't like me, he obviously likes someone else. He told me!" I tell Donna.

All I could think about that day was a particular boy with the name of my favorite bird, coincidence, right?

I feel a tug on my shoulder. "Hey! Y/N!" I hear a high pitched voice yell. "Gwen! What's up?" I say, smiling. "I learned about Japanses sayings today! And apparently there's these that mean stuff like 'I love you' and 'I like you'!" She says happily. "Really? What are they?" I question. "Well the 'I like you' one is 'the stars are beautiful, aren't they?'" She says. I stop in my tracks and get sudden flashbacks from the other night.

I heard footsteps, but ignored them, since it was probably Courtney, or Stephanie leading me back to the pack, or something. I see familiar black shoes, Boom, it wasn't Stephanie, she was wearing heels, not Gwen, she was wearing tennis shoes, maybe Donna, or Courtney? No, not Donna, she was wearing pink slip ons. "Hey, the stars are beautiful tonight, aren't they?" I heard him say. "Yeah, they are very beautiful, actually."

I couldn't take the hint then, but now I knew. THE Robin Arellano, had a crush on me!
