"it hurt,
because
it mattered"***
"stop stealing my fries"
"but it tastes better when it comes from your plate"
he pouts, his hand reaching over the table and closer to her food.
luna slaps his hand away and scowls at him.
"i swear, if you weren't dating Mina, your hand would be broken at this point."
"aggressive much"
will smiles slyly as he kicks her under the table. luna narrows her eyes and pokes her tongue out at him.
"I'm nothing compared to Lucas"
the smile slowly dissipates off his face.
he sighs and looks at her concerned.
"if you'd let me, I'd gladly push him off your apartment balcony."
she laughs and the somber look on his face softens slightly
"what did he do this time?"
luna avoids eye contact.
"well... "
"sorry I'm late!"
a slim figure with long black hair slumps into the seat next to me.
"mina!" the boy across the table yells as his eyes light up.
"will!" she responds just as brightly.
they continue to stare blissfully into each others eyes as a small blush makes its way onto his cheeks
luna huffs and shoves another fry into her mouth.
"you guys having been dating for 3 years and you still act like a cringe high school couple"
mina smiles and boops her nose.
"it's nice to see you too luna."
