Juliana always looked forward to the first day of school. Even though it meant summer vacation was over, there was something exciting about a fresh, new year, with the smell of fall in the air.
She rifled through her closet, trying to decide what to wear, while Nate was in the bathroom attached to her bedroom, brushing his teeth. They always slept at each other's houses, and he had a toothbrush among other belongings left there.
"I can't decide what to wear!" She exclaimed, laying out a few different outfits on her bed.
Nate eyed up the clothes she had laid out. "Definitely not that one, I don't need to get in a fight on the first day back." He said, pointing at a fitted black dress.
She laughed and rolled her eyes before deciding on a short pleated plaid skirt and a brown top.
"You're such a caveman. I was thinking this one anyways. But you know you don't need to get in a fight when someone looks at me the wrong way, I was actually thinking maybe this year I'll meet someone decent."
He stiffened at the thought of this, but bit his tongue. "Yeah, as if there's anyone decent at school for you to meet."
She got dressed, something she did in front of him without a second thought ever since they were little kids.
Nate glanced at her, trying to act casual, like he didn't notice she was in front of him in her lacey bra and underwear. In reality, he could barely make himself look away.
His thoughts were interrupted when Juliana realized they were running late and rushed them out the door.
They went next door to Nate's house and climbed into his truck. He helped her inside the passenger side and closed the door for her, like he always did.
If it was up to him, she would never have to open a door herself. He wanted to take care of her all the time, in every possible way.
They arrived to school with a few minutes to spare and got their schedules, immediately going to compare them.
"We have more than half of our classes together!" Juliana said happily, pointing them out on his schedule.
Nate felt more annoyed than he wanted to let on. He wanted to be able to be with her for every class, his presence keeping their male classmates away from her.
Although basically everyone at school already knew better than to mess with her, he still wanted to keep her safe from them.
He walked her to her first class, already counting down until they would reunite in second period. He watched her walk in the classroom in her pretty skirt, her heels clicking on the floor and her long brown waves bouncing up and down with each step.
