levi was not happy. he should have been the happiest man alive, but alas, no, he was not. he was angry, to tell the truth, and he was angry at none other than himself. he was confused, upset, and downright unhappy, but the most unsettling part of this all was that he did not know why. he had always known why he felt the way he did— sadness has a cause, affection had a purpose— but these blazing emotions spawned from thin air and that was enough to send levi into a very bad mood; so today, levi had set himself away from the world which was not an uncommon action. in fact, being the emotional being that he was, that was quite common for him (you see, at the slightest upset involving anything sent him away and into a very bad mood).

warm rays from the sun met levi's cheekbones, highlighted all the natural reds and browns in his black hair, made his eyes a warm shade of honey and overall made him look, or sound, more attractive than he really was. he had never been fond of reflection in the mirror but had learned to live with it. the warmth of the sun made him feel lazy in a way that he wanted to curl up on the dew covered grass blades and fall back asleep. attempting to shake the feeling off and trudge onward towards the front doors for the morning commute. i should have gotten coffee this morning.

there were points in the short time it took to cross the field where levi felt lost, or rather numb, but his legs still moved forward. in this lapse of time, his mind took the liberty to notice things for him (if that made any sense), and therefore he just narrowly missed stepping on what looked like a model's foot. jumping and turning to look at her, the boy realized that she wasn't a model, though she just as easily could have been one, but a student, which startled him. he hadn't seen her before. that actually wasn't uncommon, either, because he rarely noticed anyone that wasn't in his circle of immediate friends. she honestly didn't look like someone he would mingle with if someone else had a say, but levi knew different.

there was another odd thing he noticed about the girl: she wasn't getting up to go inside and she looked downright unhappy. something was upsetting her and his naturally curious mind wanted to know why for the sake of knowing things. looking more closely, he noticed that she was also studying for AP, what subject he couldn't tell.

during all this time, levi realized that he was staring like an idiot, so he blushed. yes, blushed. uh... sorry. he apologized, for doing what he didn't know, he just felt genuinely sorry for almost trampling her feet and then gawking at her.
