Please read all the way through even though this one shot is longer than my others and keep in mind that this has been written for a year. I promise that about halfway through it will get better. And I'm sorry in advance for turning one of the characters meaner than they are in the show.

Luna is laying on her back on her bed reading through her notes for the exam they have in a few days, when Matteo plops himself on her bed. She doesn't say anything to him at first, just puts her legs over his, like every time they are hanging out. Only after a long sigh from his mouth she asks him what is wrong.
"I have been thinking." he starts.
"Those words never mean anything good." Luna groans, but puts her notebook away so she can focus on what he says.
"Very funny." he grimaces and continues, "I've been thinking that you would definitely be the first one from the two of us to fall in love first."
"Well yeah. That's only because you date girls for few weeks and dump them." Luna says and props herself up with her elbows so she has an eye contact with him.
"No, Luna. I meant fall in love with each other."
"Oh, but why would we fall in love? And why me first? If we ask Gastón he would say that you've been drooling after me since we met."
"Slow down, one question at time." he chuckles. "First of all, he's Gastón, of course he's going to say that."
Luna doesn't say anything, because she knows he is right and motions him to continue.
"Secondly, you first because yesterday you were crying because that puppy didn't love you back." he says and Luna pouts. "Thirdly, I'm making a bet. Who will fall in love first loses."
"And, how will this bet work?" she asks.
"We will bring each other presents, compliment each other and cuddle, all that. The loser has to do whatever the winner decides."
"One question, are we supposed to be a couple? Because Gastón sure will have questions and I want to be able to answer them." Luna says and bites her lip.
"Yes, we'll fake date. And he can think and ask what ever he likes, you don't have to answer."
"Somehow I have a feeling that you have some other reasons behind this, but okay, it's a deal." she says and extends her hand for him to shake. This bet is a lose-lose situation for both of them, but Luna still takes it. Whoever falls in love first is going to get their heart broken and she prays that it's not hers. But all he says to him is, "I hope you prepare to lose, because I sure know I won't be the first to fall."

Luna is skating, just doing some tricks and pirouettes, when Matteo comes in.
Being Luna, she doesn't notice him and, well, what do you expect from her? She bumps right into him. She would be lying if she'd say this is the first, second or fiftieth time. This happens more than Luna can count. (Not really, that's just something Matteo keeps saying.)
"Chica delivery, again? Isn't it like the eighty-fourth time? (It actually is.)" Matteo asks. She wouldn't be so surprised about the number, but she counts too and she had no idea that he also does it.
