Lulu pov

"OMG!!! Thank you so much! I'm such an airhead and I keep losing my stuff" the pretty lady in front of me exclaimed.

"Uh, yeah, it was not an inconvenience at all. As you can tell my residence is close to this beach so it was no hassle" I chuckled with a tone of embarrassment.

She suddenly hugged me and asked for my number so that she could call me sometime. She was a real cutie, I haven't seen someone with her energy around here so it was a welcome surprise. She released me from the hug and I checked my watch, it was getting late.

I cleared my throat. "It's getting late, you should probably be getting back now. C'mon, I'll walk you to your car".

We walked out to her car and she got in, she attempted to start her car and nothing. This went on for another 5 minutes before she eventually stepped out of her car, locked it and walked back to me. Her checks were tinted with pink blush from her embarrassment.

My mind was running with the things that would've happen a year ago if she had found her. It most likely would end up with her dead somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, and myself being guilt ridden. We stood there for a moment in silence.

"Alright, it's pretty late and dark so I don't think we can do anything until the morning. Sooooo, you can stay at my place till then miss......" I trailed off waiting for a response.

"OH!" she exclaimed after staring at me confused for a minute or so. "Keres. My name is Keres".

"That's such a pretty name for a cute girl like yourself" I flirted with her casually. Her checks lit up, a slightly darker shade than before.

As we walked into my house, I pondered about her name. I swear I've read it in a book somewhere. We entered and I locked the door behind me.

"My name is Lulu, by the way" I said into the silence.

"OOOOO! That's such a cool name, and it just rolls of the tongue!" she said looking like an excited puppy.

"Okay the bathroom is over to the right. You can just sit on the couch, while I grab the blankets an-" I was cut off by a low grumbling. Keres covered her face from embarrassment as she knew the sound was coming from her stomach.

"Or we can get food first, plain cheese?"
She nodded still covering her face, while I ordered the pizza.

I went over to large closet that was on my left. I grabbed a couple of pillows and blankets. I pondered for a moment and then went and got my blankets and pillows from upstairs, might as well make this a slumber party in the living room.

We set them up so we were comfy and decided to watch a movie on Disney+. We picked a movie and just then there was a knock on my door. I opened it and found the delivery man standing there with our 3 cheese pizzas. I simply just grabbed them from him, since I had paid with my card, and walked over to Keres.

I walked to the kitchen and grabbed plates and paper towels as I didn't want my couch to get too dirty. I came back to Keres, and noticed she was looking through the three pizzas slightly disappointed.

"I know I said okay to the cheese pizza but I didn't think you'd get ONLY cheese" she mumbled sadly.

"Sorry, my fault. I'm a vegetarian and you said okay to cheese so I just assumed that would be fine" I found my self telling her.

"Oh your vegetarian! That fine then I understand, now c'mon let's start the movie!"

"Mh! How about we play a game to get to know eachother more?"she asked as we finished the movie and the pizza.

"Sure" I giggled as I cleaned up the place after the pizza. My god, she can literally act like a toddler getting candy, and that was adorable.

I went to throw out the pizza boxes and when I came back I saw Keres attempting and failing at braiding her hair. I grabbed my brush and came over to her.

"Want me to help with that?" She nodded so I sat behind her and started brushing her hair. I was taller than her so it was slightly easier.

"So what game will we be playing?" I asked her while I started Dutch braiding her hair.

"20 questions! I will ask a question and we both answer it and then you ask a question and we both answer it. We don't have to go all the way to 20 but we can just use the rules of the game." She explained bouncing slightly in her seat.

I pressed my hand on her shoulder and she stopped. "Well, what's the first question?"

She thought for a moment. "Here's and easy one: what's your favourite colour?"

"I would have to say teal, there's just something mesmerising about it" I replied smiling. I finished her braids and she turned around to face me. She looked deeply from my eyes to my hair.

"Sorta, like the colour of your eyes and the streak of your dyed hair" she replied dreamily still looking into my eyes.

I quickly looked away. I know what happens when people look into my eyes for too long and I don't want that to happen. Not today...

I cleared my throat. "So what's your favourite colour?"I asked.

She snapped out of her trance "Umm, probably green, because I love nature. Where I grew up, plants mostly shrivelled up and died" she explained.

I nodded in understanding before standing up and walking away. Confused, Keres looked in my direction, but before she could see what I was doing, I came back with a potted plant in my hand.

"This is a Bonsai tree, it is said to live a full human lifetime. It may not last as long as other species but it does last a while. I bought one a while ago but then I got gifted another one and I didn't know what to do with it, so I'm deciding to give it to you." I explained with a smile.

She took it from my hands and glossed over it. Then a small smile appeared on her face as tears filled her eyes.

"Aw, Kiki don't cry" I said panicked.

She stopped looking at the plant and gazed me in surprise.

"Kiki?"
