"It was Ámbar, right?" Luna asks and Matteo looks at her confused.

They are sitting on one of the couches Jam&Roller, or more accurately, she was sitting on one of the couches of the Jam&Roller and he had decided she looked lonely without Nina and could use some company, even if she seemed extremely focused on doing her homework. They had engaged on their usual banter and after a while they had fallen into silence again until that question.

"What was Ámbar?" He asks her.

"What you were worried about the other day." She clarifies. "It was Ámbar right?"

"How do you know?" He asks curious.

"I saw her that day on the rink she seemed..." She bites her lower lip, trying to find the word, and Matteo doesn't let that distract him, for too long anyway. "Frustrated, sad, lonely, you pick."

"You noticed all of that?" He asks surprised that someone who doesn't know Ámbar could read her feelings so well.

"I'm good at reading, people."She shrugs. "But really, I'm worried about her. Is she better now?"

"Why are you worried about her?" Matteo asks her confused. "You don't know her."

"No one deserves to feel that way." Luna whisper looking down, her face full of sincere concern. "But she seems better now, that's why I'm asking."

"Yeah, she just needed a few days to clear her head." Matteo shrugs remembering the last three days, days full of rage and late night calls.

"To clear her head of what?"Luna asks curious. Matteo looks at her not sure if she should tell her about Ámbar's problem, in fact he is sure he shouldn't but Luna really seems worried about her and he can't really deny her much when she is looking at him with those big green eyes of hers.

"Let's just say that sometimes she lets people's criticism get to her head." Matteo shrugs,settling on a vague answer. "One person's criticism in particular."

"Her godmother?" Luna guesses and Matteo raises his eyebrows at her but nods anyway.

"She is just not the best guardian." Matteo sighs. "But Ámbar always manages to pull through, she is strong."

"I hope she has someone to support her." Luna whispers looking down at the table.

"She has me." Matteo shrugs. "And who better than me?"

"Why?"She asks raising her head and locking eyes with him. "Because you are Matteo 'the snob' Balsano and there's no one better than you?"

"Yes." He let's himself smirks for a second before becoming serious again. "And because I understand her?"

"You do?" She frowns,leaning closer to him and Matteo has to smile a little at how cute this girl is.

"My parents are not as bad as Sharon is." Matte shrugs. "But they are never around and when they are they like to remind me all the expectations they have for me and for my life."

"I'm sorry." She says in a soft voice and once again she puts her hand on top of his, he pulls the same move than the last time and turns his hand around to squeeze her but this time he doesn't let it go after a few seconds, he starts tracing little circles on the back of her hand, Luna's eyes go to their hands but she doesn't pull away.

"It's not your fault." He tells her. "It's just the way things are."

They are so close, he could just try his luck now, just lean in and brush his lips against hers. He can see it in his mind, he can see himself shortening the distance between them and finally getting to kiss those lips of hers and find out if they are as soft as they look but he can also see her breaking the kiss and running away, she doesn't seem like the kind of girl to kiss a guy she's known for just two weeks. He clears his throat, erasing the thought of his mind, for now at least.
