Alison intended to tell Alexa about the matter, but it was already late at night. Therefore, she put away her phone and planned to tell Alexa tomorrow.
The next morning, Alison cout of her room. From the opposite room, Luis also cout with the schoolbag on his back.
As soon as she saw him, what Shaw had said last night crossed her mind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe pursed her lips and greeted him, "Good morning, Luis." "Morning." Luis raised his eyebrows and went downstairs.
Blaze didn't cback last night, so there was no one riding her to Alexa’s house.
Alison finished her milk, looked at Luis across the table, and said, "I'm going to school." It would be a four- or five-minute walk.
Luis grabbed his schoolbag and followed her to stand up. "I'll give you a ride." His way of speech was always concise and affirmative.
Then Luis disappeared from the staircase.
By the tAlison went downstairs, he had been standing outside, waiting for her.
"Get on." It was not the first tthat he gave her a ride. Compared with yesterday, she was much more composed and stepped on the foot peg more steadily.
"Ready?" Luis didn’t feel her hand on his shoulder and thus looked back at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlison met his pretty eyes and blushed. " Yeah." In a hurry, she put her other hand on his shoulder too.
Only then did Luis step on the pedals and set off.
Learning from her experience from yesterday, Alison got prepared by bracing her hands against his shoulders before he tried to stop the bike.
The bicycle pulled off the road, and she avoided bumping into Luis's body.
Alison heaved a sigh of relief and got off the bike. "Thanks for the ride." Alexa hadn't cout yet. Probably, she stayed up last night again.
Luis glanced at her and asked, "Where is Alexa?" "Sleeping in, probably." Just then, Alexa rushed out, hugged Alison, and apologized for getting up late. Then she turned to look at Luis, arched her brow, and asked, "Why are you still here?" Luis snorted and went off on the bike.
Alexa looked at Luis and scoffed, "Did he scold you at hlast night?" Alison asked with confusion, "Why would he do that?" "Mad, ashamed, jealous!" Alison awkwardly pursed her lips and said, "No, Luis helpedsolve the last math problem." "PFE" Alexa snorted, "| didn't expect that." Alison looked at Alexa. At the thought of Shaw's words last night, she hesitated for a moment and said, "We consult Torey on math problems every day. Would that affect his study plans?" While eating a doughnut, Alexa asked, "Did Luis tell you that?" Alison blushed and denied it.
Why was Alexa so sure that Luis liked her? "Okay." Alexa hummed, had a sip of her milk, and said, "I don't think so, Torey's grades are always good. Of course, he has never outperformed Luis." "But we're about to be in the twelfth grade. If he takes out half an hour after school every day to tutor us, won't his study plans..." Alexa thought about it and found her words reasonable. "But, who else could we turn to? Luis? Well, you could, and | would ask my mother to finda tutor!" In Alexa's view, that was a good plan. It was just that she would be less motivated if Alison didn't study with her.
