   "Ok, class is over!" Desdemona shouted, a big and widened grin on her face. Though she still felt that it was weird seeing Romeo gone on her roster. Luther seemed completely fine and not bothered by Romeo's absence, they must have gotten in a fight. Desdemona wandered over to Oren, checking to see if she was alright.

Oren's face practically buried in a book, she smiled and nodded. "Yes, I'm fine, grandmother." Looking back down at her book, turning a page.

Desdemona smiled and nodded back, leaving Oren to her book.

Luther was speaking with Viktor at the table. The conversation being on and off, Luther keeping his gaze at Oren.

"Luther." Viktor snapped, causing Luther to snap his head back at Viktor.

"What..." Clearly saying this, dumbfounded.

"You were staring off into space. Is something wrong?"

"Nah, I'm fine. Just...tired." Luther itched the back of his neck, faking a smile. "Really, I'm fine." With that, he looked back at Oren, finding it abnormally cute how she gazes at the pages. Without turning his head to Viktor he lowly said, "I'll be right back." Luther got up from the chair, walking over to Oren. His nerves shot up quicker, causing him to freeze in place. Exhaling slowly before approaching Oren. "Hi." Luther shyly waved, shoving his hands in his pockets.

Oren's eyes shot up from her book, meeting Luther's. She automatically looked back down, clearing her throat. "Hello." Her curls falling in her face, causing her to push them back a bit.

Silence clouded the both of them before Luther spoke up. "Would you..." Stopping in the middle of his sentence, looking down. Biting his inner cheek, attempting to form words. "Uhm...this is abrupt." Luther chuckled, shaking his head. "Can we...hang out probably? This weekend?"

Oren blinked, looking up at Luther. Smiling shyly before she could reply in stutters, "S-sure." She sat there in disbelief, obviously thinking it was a joke. "B-but aren't you with Romeo?"

"I'm pretty sure he's pissed at me for some reason. I just don't want to think about him." He looked down, lightly huffing in frustration.

"Oh..." She looked back down at her book, curling her hair with her index finger.

Luther was silent in awe before he spoke, "We can do a movie? If you'd like."

She remained silent for a moment before responding. "Sure, that'd be great."  Her cheeks becoming hot and turning a cherry red very quickly.

Luther couldn't help but smile, nodding his head. "I can pick you up."

Lifting her head, raising a brow in confusion. "Pick me up?"

"In my car." He chuckled, shaking his head. "Not like that, silly."

Oren nearly dropped her book at the "nickname". Chuckling nervously before attempting to push the curls out of her face. "I-I knew that."

"I'll see you this weekend then." He smiled, wanting to hug her but shockingly too shy to ask for one. Luther walked away, leaving a still shocked and flustered Oren.
