Orion was currently sitting on a beanbag scrolling through his email. Trying to figure out what to do about the issues with the Italians. He sighed and rubbed his tired eyes, he was so fucking tired that all he wanted to do was sleep and not wake up ever again.

But he can't do that.

Not when he has a innocent angel to take care of.

He sighed louder before getting up to make himself a cup of coffee. It was currently 3:58am, he had to be up at 7:00 for school. Even earlier, to get to Lavenders house on time.

Lavender.

Such a unique name, it fits her though because quite frankly he's never met anyone remotely close to a girl like her. And he's met a lot of girls. Orion shook his head and walked back to the beanbag. He looked outside the opened window next to him and started to think.

He needed a game plan and he needs it quick. He's fucking tired of the Italians and especially his father. He didn't like doing his work but at the same time that's all he's ever known. Doing something different would just feel wrong and foreign. Orion didn't like being foreign with the things he did but maybe, just maybe, doing something different won't be bad after all. His thoughts went back to Lavender. She's different and she's perfect for him.

Orion didn't know how long he sat there just staring into oblivion but it must've been long for the sun to be shining so bright.

He groaned softly before getting up to get to the shower. He needed a cold one to prepare himself for seeing Lavender again. The things she does to him without her knowing gives him the motivation to start and jump in the cold shower.

Lavender was currently trying on a new midi-sundress her mom sent to her from Paris. It's was a beautiful baby pink color that flows down couple inches above her ankle. It was a perfect sundress for such a sunny day out.

Lavender heard a knock on her door just as she was done putting on her bow headband that matches her dress. She looked at the person standing at her now, opened door, and saw Orion standing in all his glory. He was wearing black jeans, white tee and black boots. Lavender thought about how he could wear that on such a hot day but gave him a bright smile anyway.

He came over to the vanity chair she was sitting at and held out a hand for her to grab. Lavender shyly held on to Orion's hand and blushed scarlet at the contact. Orion stared at her with hungry eyes giving her a once over, he even twirled her making Lavenders dress flow like a fairy princess. Orion then wrapped a arm around her waist before pulling her flushed to him.

"я просто хочу съесть тебя" (I just wanna eat you) Orion muttered to her ears with thick husky Russian accent. It made all the nonexistent hairs on Lavenders body stick up. Lavender did not know what that meant and knew she couldn't guess even if she tried.

"W-What does t-that mean?" Lavender asked softly, barely audible because her mind was not coping with the close proximity of their bodies.

Orion looked into her eyes intensely and said, "you look absolutely beautiful." Although, it wasn't what Orion said it was still very true. Lavenders eyes widen, her cheeks turning two shades darker if that's even possible. The corner of Orion's lips turned up into the smallest smirk that shows Lavender that he knows how his words affected her.

"Come on, let's go before I do something you're not ready for."

Lavender eyes looked confused not understanding what Orion was implying, making him sigh, "Exactly." He spoke before taking his hands off of Lavender and going by her vanity desk to pick up her backpack.
