~The Bottom~

*Flashback*

*Message from Leo*

Are you still at the faculty?

Yes, why?

I need you to come to the basketball court.

?

I'll explain it later to you, okay?

But why do you want me to come to the court? I still have the presentation sheet for my most recent project due and the deadline is on Tuesday...

It's Thursday, relax...you still have five days...

Yes, and my structural engineering exam is in two weeks and I want to have a nice grade on this one, because last semester, I only got 86% on this exam...

86 % is more than a nice grade...you exactly know, that mom isn't that strict with grades.

But my dad is...he was like "why didn't you get an A on this one?"

Fiat, I can understand that your dad is quite strict with your grades, but it is really important. 

Are you sure?

Please, come over...

Okay

After Leo convinced me to come to the basketball court, I saved all the calculation problems I solved during my study session for my structural engineering exam on my Ipad and closed it then. My Ipad found its way into my black tote bag, as I went to the buffet to get an ice latte, before I headed out of the buffet room. I left the heavy glass door of the room behind me and made my way to the basketball court. On my way there, I met Anda and Natsu, who were just coming from the direction of the modelling work shop. 

"Fiat...what are you doing here...", Natsu asked, as I responded to her, that I was just on my way to the basketball court to meet Leo there. Anda raised a brow and smirked at me, teasing me. 

"Does he finally have the guts to confess to you?..." 

"Anda...", I looked at her annoyed, whereupon she just chuckled. 

"Do you want to get dinner afterwards?", Anda added, as I told her and Natsu, that I have to finish the presentation sheet and that I have to study for the structural engineering exam.

"Fuck...", Natsu realised, that she should start to study for this exam, bacause last semester, she barely passed it with a score of 63% and you need 60% to pass an exam on our faculty.

"But you can do every exam 3 times...", she said, as I just told Natsu, that I highly prefer to pass my exams on the first attempt. 

"So you won't pick up dinner with me and Natsu?", Anda concluded slightly sulky, as I only offered her to wait for me and Leo after he met me in the basketball court. Again, Anda teased me, that she and Natsu might have to wait for some hours until Leo and I are done kissing each other. She was right to an extent. I wanted to kiss Leo for a really long time, but I never had the guts to do so. They rejected my offer and left me in direction to the front door of the faculty, while I resumed my way to the basketball court. 

My head was in a sea of thoughts of why Leo ordered me to the court. Does he want to confess to me? Does he want to talk to me about the incident with King? (That's a long story) Why did he pick the basketball court and not any other place, that was maybe not so crowded? Because the court was almost always filled with teams playing matches or training for matches. I also spend a lot of time there since I play in the team, because my dream is to become a famous basketball player, but my dad told me to study at university after I finished my 5-year technical school with focus on glass as building material and its versatile possibilities of use.
