Luna Pov

"Luis! Give me my phone!" Anna chased Luis around my room as Tony and I sat on the bed laughing at them.

We've been home for an hour and I can't count how many times Anna has beat him up.

Obviously Luis likes it because he won't stop doing things to warrant her beatings.

"Alright Luis, give her back the phone it's like, 1am and you guys are so loud." I said thinking of my sleeping nonna.

"Alright, alright." Luis held the phone out to Anna, but when she reached out to get it he pulled back his hand.

"You!" Anna was fuming.

"I quit!" He quickly handed her the phone and put his hands up surrendering.

She stomped out of the room and I got up to go after her. Before leaving the room I stopped in front of Luis.

"Stupid."

I said shaking my head laughing at him he obviously likes her, and chooses to annoy her.

I think she likes him too, but she doesn't want to get hurt. I should talk to her and see where her head is.

"Anna, wait up," I said catching up with her on the stairs.

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"I don't know. I was looking for the kitchen I forgot where it is."

"Come on." I said taking her to the kitchen.

"Are you really upset?" I asked as I poured us some juice.

"Yes, I mean no. He's just so annoying! Why does he have to be so cute!" She said burying her head in her arms.

"Hahahaha, I knew you liked him!" I said laughing and shaking her shoulders.

Her head moved back and forth from my shaking, but she didn't care. She just sighed loudly as I shook her and laughed.

"Ughhhh! Why do I also like the popular guys! I swear I won't fall for him," she said.

"Yeah right." I snickered between sipping my drink.

She clearly just said she liked him but I won't be the bearer of that news.

"I'm serious! I won't fall for those brown eyes and beautiful smile."

"Then how come you know his eyes are brown and his smile is beautiful? Sounds like you have a crushhhh." I teased her.

"Luna Russo!" She said getting up and chasing me around the kitchen.

"Hahahaha." I laughed and ran faster.

After three laps around the kitchen I was out of breath. My chest was tight and my heart was beating way too fast.

I was starting to panic, in my head I did not want to freak Anna out. I'm sure she noticed the portable oxygen and all the meds in my room.

Yet she did not ask questions or treat me differently, I was grateful for that. I stop at the edge of the counter trying to catch my breath.

"I got you!" Anna said coming up to me but when she saw my eyes tearing up her face straightened.

"Luna are you okay?" She asked helping me to a seat.

My breathing was labored and I searched for the oxygen tank. She took it out of the bag for me and handed it to me.

I adjust the oxygen levels and take deep breaths.

"You okay?" She asked after a while of us sitting.

"Y-yes, I'm fine," I said feeling slightly embarrassed that I can't do something basic as running around with my friends.
