love or loyalty

As I recognised the boy in the middle, I couldn't help but whisper under my breath, "holy shit." It was the jerk who  stood up against the guy who attacked me.

However, it wasn't just him; there were three other boys accompanying him. They all exuded confidence they walked down the halls, reminiscent of the popular group from the movie "Mean Girls," except there were no victims falling into trash bins here.

The whispers in the corridor grew louder as they passed by, and it was clear that these boys commanded attention wherever they went.

What was so unique about those boys? And why were they surrounding everyone's attention? I was confused. But I mean I get it, they are so fine. 

As the group passed by, one of the boys, not the one I had already met but the one beside him, caught my eye. There was something about him that exuded a sense of warmth, calmness, and reassurance. Our eyes locked for a moment, and in that instant, I felt a sensation I couldn't quite explain.

But just as quickly as it had happened, reality snapped back, and we both looked away, continuing on our separate paths. The encounter left me feeling a mixture of emotions, and I couldn't help but wonder about that mysterious boy who had briefly captured my attention.

As I stood there lost in my thoughts about the boy, I heard Finn coughing twice beside me. His glances in my direction made it clear that he was trying to get my attention, but my mind was still preoccupied with that encounter.

Feeling curious, I turned to Xochitl and inquired if she knew the group of boys.

"You haven't heard of them?" Xochitl responded, looking like a girl with a high school crush. "They are all SO hot, wealthy, and even talented."

As she spoke, I couldn't help but notice that every girl in the corridor, including myself, seemed to be equally captivated by these boys. 

Xochitl described each boy in detail. 

"Timothee Chalamet was the oldest and regarded as the smartest member. His renown for his academic and artistic accomplishments, such as securing every available drama scholarship, distinguished him as a highly accomplished and esteemed individual. His intellect evidently influenced the group dynamics. He has also appeared in numerous indie films.

In contrast to Timothee's demeanour, Jack Champion was known for being more of a fun-loving and carefree individual. His easygoing and cheerful attitude made him the life of the party, and everyone enjoyed spending time with him. Beyond his vibrant personality, Jack's talent as a state swimmer added to his appeal, making him a popular and well-liked member of the group. His ability to bring joy and positivity wherever he went made him a memorable and cherished presence among his peers.

Louis Partridge, the boy who had captured y/n's attention, has a calm and unassuming presence within the group. Unlike the others, he doesn't seek the spotlight or cause any trouble. Instead, he carried an air of tranquility and poise that was captivating. His musical talents added another layer to his charm, and his wisdom shone through his actions and words. He possessed a unique combination of musical talents and a thoughtful, matureness that sets him apart from the rest of the group.

"I wasn't staring at him..." I retorted, feeling a bit offended by Xochitl's teasing.

With a hint of sarcasm, Finn replied, "Oh, yea sure buddy."
