30 Days of Us

Day 25:

Day 25:

"Congratulations! Aww my baby is graduating," Dani hugs me really weirdly on purpose and I grimace.

"Dude, get the heck off me." Dani pouts at my cutting statement.

"Why?" He whines.

"I just... ugh! I missed my 6 pointer!" I groan.

"Um, yeah, you got 7 points."

"SO?! There's tons of people ahead of me now! It's just one point, but so many people don't have it."

"And you are upset because...?"

"Are you crazy?! This will get me into a horrible class!"

"Hun." Dani looks at me pointedly for a while before sighing. I continue to pout. "Babe, I didn't stay an extra two weeks for you to pout. However, I'm gonna take care of you until you're ready for me to drag you out on a well deserved celebratory dinner."

"You're kidding me right." My ego is just extremely deflated at the moment. "Plus, I should be losing w..."

"Baby, don't you dare finish that sentence. Don't. You. Dare."

"Why? I'm just stating facts." I cross my arms and scoot over. Maybe I'll find a good book to read and drown in my sorrows.

"No, you're beautiful. And not to be egotistical but if you were such a big fan of me and I found and chose you, you must've done something right, right?" I hardly notice how exasperated he's getting, although I do notice the frustration.

"No, left." We crack a grin/smirk at each other. Then I sigh. "I don't know... I feel like I've underperformed."

"Well, some dreams have to be traded for others. Y'know, like, you can have Harry Potter distracting the crap out of you and get a 7 pointer in exchange..." Dani trails off.

"Get out," I joke, finally deciding that giving my boyfriend hell isn't a good idea after all.

Dani's face falls. He lets go of me and retreats slowly.

"Okay," he whispers quietly. I don't have time to respond before he's out of my dorm.

Crap.

"Where is the dude?!" I mutter to myself. My eyes scan across the doors and hallways. Finally my eyes land on a sign.

Access to rooftop.

Ahh. Sounds like a legit place to start looking.

I bound up the stairs, trying to be quiet in fears of Dani noticing me and running off. I scan the place hurriedly, taking in all the pretty flowers. Tulips, Daisies, Roses, Forget-Me-Nots... AHHHH.

Forget-me-nots.

Ahh.

I sneak over a side of the plants, using pillars to shield myself. A red faced boy is sitting smack in the middle of the plants, rubbing his face repeatedly. Now, how should I go by doing this...

You know what? What the heck. I'll tie him up or something. But first, I sit on him.

"Hey! Who are you... oh... oh um hi?" Dani's voice trembles slightly.

"I'm Nicole, 20, nice to meet you. I'm actually looking for my boyfriend. Do you know where he is? I need to pass him this." I show him a clump/bouquet of forget-me-nots, hurriedly stuck together. He chuckles through his tears.

"Look. To make up for this, we'll go out tomorrow night, and you get to pick." I decide.

"But it's your..."

"Shut up and enjoy your flowers." I help him on his feet and cuddle in his arm.

"You're sleeping with me tonight." Dani snuggles into my hair.

"Don't smell me I stink... I mean, whatever!" I grin sheepishly at Dani who is glaring at me again.

"Oh. And did you know that the sofa in the dorm is pull out?"
