A Fixed Heart

Rooftop

Zoe Lee POV:

I kept walking far away from Felix and from that girl. I actually liked him. How did he not know nor see that? The shirt looks good on him though. But he would look better with me next to him.

Tears began streaming down my face as I ran to my room. I locked the door and cried while sitting on the bed. The shirts were a sign. He's so oblivious. I just wish he would like me and not bring up the past.

Flashback:

"I really like you", I said, as I handed the boy a flower.

He looked at me then laughed. "Have you seen any other girls around our school? They're much better looking than you". He was right.

"But looks are all not what matters", I said.

"That's for you because you're born ugly. But for the rest of us it's not that way. We have standards which are above you", said the boy, as he ripped each petal from the flower.

I walked away as tears fell down my face. I didn't bother to look back.

I heard a noise near my window. I looked the other way. I didn't want Argos to see me like this.

"Hey Zoe", said Argos. "I'm sorry about earlier. I was just joking". He looked at me.

"It's not your fault. I don't even know why I got mad", I said, as my tears were no longer visible.

"Oh, so do you want to continue this?", he asked. I nodded as I stood up. He transformed. "Hang on", he said, as he lifted me. I blushed. Before I knew it he was jumping away.

A few moments later, we landed on a rooftop. "Who's this for?", I asked.

"It's for us", said Argos, as he looked at the evening sky.

"What?", I asked. When did he do this?

"When you left me there, I decided to find a way to make it up to you", he said, as he looked at me.

"Oh, wow. This is a lot", I said, as I looked at the food, pillows and blankets.

"I also got some movies downloaded", said Argos, as he placed a laptop in front of the food.

"Why's there so much food?", I asked.

"You didn't eat lunch or breakfast", said Argos. I blushed. He cares. That was enough to make my heart flutter.

We began watching a movie. "Do you want some popcorn?", asked Argos, as he gave me the bowl.

"Sure", I said, as I grabbed something warm. I looked at him and saw his hand. We both retreated and blushed.

"Catch", said Argos, as he threw me a piece of popcorn into my mouth. I blushed red.

A few minutes later, the side character got murdered and a blood curdling scream was heard. I buried my face in Argos's chest.

"You're safe", said Argos, as he wrapped an arm around my waist. I blushed bright red.

We ate some food and looked at the stars. "You have something there", said Argos, as he used a napkin to wipe my face. I leaned against Argos's shoulder. He leaned his head on mine.

"I could die in this moment", I said, as we looked at the sunset.

"Forever young", finished Argos, as he looked at me. We both laughed.

"I'm so tired", I said. "This night was fun".

"Me too", said Argos. "Let me drop you off at home".

"Let's clean up first", I said. In a few minutes everything was packed into a backpack Argos carried.

"Now get on", said Argos, as he lifted me up. We flew through the dark sky.

We soon landed on my balcony. "Thanks for today", I said.

"So did anything interesting happen today", asked Argos, in a teasing voice.

"Well, Ladybug and Chat Noir fought another akuma", I said. We both laughed until I dared myself to ask this question. "Do you like someone?".

"Yeah I do", said Argos, with a bright smile on his face.

"Oh", I whispered.

"Well, I gotta get going. See you later", said Argos, as he jumped off.

I sat on my bed and cried again. I'm such a crybaby. I'm so stupid too. I should've known that he wouldn't like me back, just like that guy. Why does he like someone else? Am I not good enough? Gosh, it's been a few days since we started being friends. I blushed as tears streamed down my face.

I love him already.
