"HEY MOM" Lev barged through the front door and tossed me on the couch.

"She says there's more gifts" Lev pointed at me as i walked into the kitchen.

"They're in your room.... and please don't scream. Okay?" She furrowed her brows, knowing full well that he was going to scream either way.

Lev grabbed my hand and yanked me all the way to his room, i almost tripped a few times.

On the corner of his dresser laid bags of animal food and bedding for small animals and such. This didn't go unnoticed by Lev.

"You did not get me an animal" He looked back at me and grinned, utter disbelief filled his voice.

"Sorta-" I stared at my feet. Lev stayed quiet for a while and just looked at me, waiting for me to say "JUST KIDDING" but i think we both knew that i wasn't going to.

Lev shrieked and squeezed my poor small body. "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU" He set me down and put his hands on my shoulders, his green eyes widened as they stared into mine. The poor boy looked like he was at a loss for words, his eyes darted all around the hallway and his cheeks puffed up with words that he wanted to say but just couldnt.

"GEEZ" Lev blurted and started flick me all over my face. I could've sworn that i had never seen him smile like that, not since we both confessed to each other in middle school.

He lifted me off of the ground and hugged me again, giggling like a moron while doing so. He hasn't even seen the lamp i got him.

"WOW Y/N YOURE AMAZING! I LOVE YOU"

I felt my heart nearly burst open, my entire body felt like it was on flames.

"Okay you two" Dayanara (Levs mom) tapped his back and smiled at us. "You'll need to set everything up for the baby porcupine."

Lev put me down. "Baby porcupine?"

"Hedgehog." I whispered.

"YOURE LYING" Lev ran into his room, searching for the tiny animal.

"How many times has he said that today?" Dayanara put her soft, cold hands on my shoulder while looking at her son geek over the small hedgehog.

"I lost count" I laughed.

"COME HERE" Lev yelled. "Look at how cute it is" He held the hedgehog up to eye level.

"So what'll you guys name it?" Levs mom lightly petted the hedgehogs back, careful not to upset the small animal.

Lev and i looked at each other, not knowing what to name it. "We'll need to figure that out"

After we had got the hedgehogs enclosure ready, we placed him in to see if he liked his new home. He scuttled around in his newspaper and bedding, sniffing everything out of curiosity. I looked over at Lev, he eyed the animal closely. It hasn't even been 30 minutes and he already looks like he completely loves the thing.

"So, the name?" I poked Levs shoulder.

"Hmmm" He tapped his finger in his chin. "Clementine. I like it"

"Clementine? Like... as in the orange?"

"Sure" He shrugged. "Clem for sort"
