Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked into the eyes of my long-time boyfriend Jeremy. He was still speaking to me, but I couldn't process anything.
"Piper. Piper. Are you even listening to me? Come on, Piper, pay attention."
"I'm sorry Jeremy, it's not easy for me to concentrate right now."
"I know. Listen, I still want to be friends, and right now I've got to go, but until we see each other again think about what our friendship means, ok?"
"Ok, Jeremy." I watched his back fade into the crowded hallway. As the teardrops began to slide down my cheeks I felt a hand gently brush them away before they could fall from my chin. I turned to come face to face with a smiling young man who matched my height, inch for inch. For some reason I couldn't help but notice his strikingly blue eyes, and the way they complimented his dirty blond hair. My eyes were sill overflowing, but I suddenly felt better.
"I couldn't let someone so beautiful as Piper Halliwell be degraded to crying in front of her locker, now could I?" his voice startled her out of her daydreaming.
"Who are you?" my voice seemed resentful, but my heart was thinking otherwise.
"My name is Leo. I guess you don't remember me, but I moved here at the beginning of this school year. My locker's only a row down from yours."
"Actually," I said, thinking, "I do remember you. Didn't you save that little freshman, Joey Stevens, from becoming a locker sandwich?"
Leo laughed and grinned at Piper. "I'm not too fond of locker sandwhichs."
That smile is just too much. Why have I never noticed this boy before?
"So how come I've never seen you around?"
"I usually keep pretty busy."
"Well.are you busy today?"
"That depends. I am, but only if you'll come to the Café du Soleil with me after school." He grinned again.
I smiled brightly and said "Then I guess you're busy!"
