There were few who didn't annoy Aria, but to her surprise the face she was met with was one that had been a source of a headache before. He didn't look all too threatening—(he actually looked frazzled, really, she noticed)—but it didn't stop her scowl from deepening. She took a step towards him, making sure to keep a healthy, safe distance between them, and lowered her voice.

"Are you following me, then? Even into the school year?" she asked, brows knitted together.
