Nani woke up. Her head and legs were pounding.
She looked down at her legs, they were covered in scrapes. She grimaced in pain.
She took care of her knees as best she could, she took a tylenol pill, that helped with her headache a little.
She stuck her hand out the door. Fall was coming, it was chilly.
She put on her light brown jacket and scarf, underneath her jacket was a white blouse, the collar was tied up with a red neck tie. She had a red plaid skirt on, and put on her school shoes, she was wearing a pair of leggings.
She cooked a piece of toast.
She looked at the clock, 6:45.
She burst out of her apartment to be greeted by the warmth of a fimiliar body. She crashed into the body.
Her toast was on the ground, she was angry now. You never mess with Nani's food.
"What the hell dude?! Why were you outside of my door?!" She yelled, punching the man she was sitting on.
"Wow, I cushion you fall and this is the thanks I get." The voice said.
"Why were you waiting outside of my door like that Luca?!"
"I was going to knock on the door, but you came crashing out first."
"O-Oh..." Nani said, her legs still straddling Luca, who was laying on the ground.
Luca looked up at Nani and smiled. Nani glanced at him as if to ask, What are you thinking?
Luca then proceeded to grab Nani's arms and flip her over so that he was now on top. Nani had a shocked look on her face. Luca leaned down to her face until they were so close their breaths were intermingling with each other, his minty fresh and her strawberry. Luca leaned in further to where their noses were now touching. He proceeded to smile at Nani's now red face.
He got off of her and helped her up.
"What was that?" Nani asked with a huff.
"I dunno." Luca shrugged.
Nani then looked down to the left where her poor piece of toast now laid, ants all over it ready to bring it home. She turned around and punched Luca's chest. He was muscular but seemed to feel the impact, judging by his small groan.
"You ruined my toast!" Nani yelled.
"Sorry..." Luca said looking down at her, and staring into her deep brown orbs. They reminded him of chocolate.
Nani went back inside.
"What are you doing?" Luca said, his tone purely curious.
"Making another toast." Nani said annoyed.
Luca rolled his eyes and plopped himself down on the couch.
~~~~~
The toast bounced out of the toaster. Nani grabbed the browned pieces of bread and lathered them in butter.
She walked into the living room to see Luca surfing the channels on her TV.
"You have everything..." Luca said clicking a new button on the remote.
"Turn it off, we're gonna be late." Nani said reaching for her bag.
Nani made sure to lock the door, and they made their way to school.
