A high school English class takes a summer vacation to Verona, Italy after a semester of reading the famous love story "Romeo and Juliet".
Ariana has been looking forward to this trip ever since reading the book in class. Her secret lover Jason also...
The morning of our third day here in Verona consisted of exploring more of the city and getting some souvenirs for home.
It is now late in the afternoon, around 7 pm, and I am getting ready for my 'date' with Jason. We both decided to be basic Americans and get pizza. He found a restaurant called Pizzeria da Vincenzo that's supposedly has good pizza and for a reasonable price.
As I'm curling my hair, Luna walks into the bathroom and sees me all prettied up.
"Woah" She says as she suddenly stops at the door way.
"What?" I ask looking at her through the mirror.
"You. Look. Amazing" She says.
"Thank. You" I mock her back.
Chloe then comes into the bathroom as well to take a look at me.
"You look so nice" She smiles at me and I give her back a small smile too.
I finish up the last piece of my hair that I need to curl and touch up my makeup.

"You're so lucky that you get to go out after curfew" Chloe whines.
"Yeah but it also sucks for her cause she has to be with Jason" Luna says as she makes fake gagging noises when she says Jason's name.
"Oh right, you poor girl" Chloe pats me on the arm.
"It's fine, I'll have a good time. I'll text you guys when I'm coming back" I say as I grab my tote bag and hug them both.
I say goodbye to them as I leave the hotel room and close the door behind me. Jason already texted me saying he was downstairs waiting for me and I speed walk down the hallway to not keep him waiting.
I walk down the few steps of the stairs into the lobby and Jason turns to face me. His eyes go wide and his mouth hangs open a little.
"Wow, you look beautiful" He says.
"You always tell me that" I say to him.
"And every time I mean it" He smiles at me and his comment makes me give him a smile back.
