"Oh no." I said as I shut off the TV. The Mavericks just got crushed by the Jazz. My boyfriend, Luka, didn't have his best game to say the least. Let's just say, angry Luka is scary. Since he did so bad and lost by so much, he's gonna be pissed the fuck off. It's also scary because it's rare that he's mad. But, looking from the TV at his face, I knew today was one of those days. I like to call it his "angry donkey" days. Don't ask why, it just is.

2 hours later, a loud slam was heard through the Dallas apartment.

"Breathe in, breathe out. You got this Anna." I patted myself on the back. I stood up to greet the Slovenian man at the door.

"Hi babe!" I said to Luka, giving him a hug.

"I missed you all day." I said into his sweatshirt. He hugged back and gave me a peck on the top of the head. He kinda pushed me away and went to go take off his shoes.

Oh God. I thought. He's really pissed now.

"Luka, you haven't said anything since you came home. Is everything alright?" I asked, knowing why he was mad but too scared ti bring it up.

"Really? You're gonna act like that? Ok." Luka said in a rude tone. Fuck. He's PISSED. Be calm, you got this.

"Luka, I know you didn't have your best game today but you gave it your best shot." I told him.

"Don't sugarcoat it. You know I did bad and don't act like you don't." Luka snapped.

"Ok, ok. You maybe did pretty bad, but that doesn't mean you're the worst player ever. You're in the All Star Game! You have to be good." I reassured him.

"I did so bad! I missed easy shots, rebounds, and blocks. Tako hudo sem. Razočaral sem celotno ekipo. Trener je verjetno tako razočaran. Jebi me!" Luka totally ignored my speech. (Translation: I'm so fucking bad. I let my entire team down. Coach is probably so disappointed. Fuck me.)

"I don't even know what you said, but Luka, calm down."

"DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!" Luka shouted. I freezed. Luka never EVER yelled. If he did, he would apologize right after.

"Luka, I know you're mad but please don't yell." I told Luka.

"I, I just need you y/n." the man's thick accent spoke, on the edge of tears. I walked over to him and embraced him in a loving hug. He started sobbing into my shoulder.

"Babe, tell me what's wrong." I rubbed his back as he hugged me.

"I, I just think coach is going to be disappointed in me." Luka sniffled.

"Awwww, Luka. Coach loves you and might be disappointed in you sometimes but knows you're human and humans make mistakes." I reassured him.

"I guess you're right." he sniffled. He looked up at me, eyes red from crying.

"Pizza?" I asked.

"You know me so well baby." Luka deeply kissed me on the lips. I pulled out phone to order pizza. I dialed the place to order.

"Hi! Can I order a large pepperoni pizza?"

"And breadsticks." Luka acted like a child.

"And can I add an order of breadsticks. Ok. Thank you!" I hung up.

"It'll be delivered in 20 minutes. What do you wanna do in that time?" I asked.

"Oh you know what I wanna do baby." Luka smirked and rubbed his hands together.

"Uno!" I exclaimed as I placed down my green 7 card.

"You literally just had 6 cards? How do you have uno?!" Luka exclaimed. He picked up another card and I placed down my last card.

"I win." I crossed my arms over my chest and leaned back into my seat.

"Odjebi." Luka rolled his eyes. (Translation: Fuck off.)

"What did you just say to me?" I asked, confused by the foreign language.

"A word." Luka smirked.

"What word?" I asked.

"Odjebi." the man's Slovenian accent spoke.

"WHAT DOES THAT MEAN IN ENGLISH?!?" I asked annoyed. The doorbell rang, signaling the pizza was here.

"The pizza's here!" Luka shot up from his seat and ran to the door.

"I'll find out!" I exclaimed to Luka.

"Thank you. Have a good one." Luka handed the delivery man a generous tip. Luka shut the door and set the pizza on the counter. I got up from my seat, hungry af. Luka opened the box to reveal a delicious-looking pepperoni pizza.

"Yum." I drooled. We both dove right in, grabbing the slice we thought looked most appetizing. We finished eating our pizza and snuggled up on the couch to watch a movie.

"Was this a good way to end your shitty day?" I asked the man beside me.

"You bet it was, Anna." Luka smiled.

"Good, I'm glad."

"Thank you for being patient with me. I really mean that. Most people aren't patient but I'm thankful you are." Luka spoke.

"Awwww Luka! You're too sweet." I cooed. Luka leaned down and kissed me on the head.

I'm so in love, and I know he is too.
