Third Chapter

Dear diary,

Ondreaz likes me and I might like him but I can't. Or I shouldn't?

I woke up to my phone ringing. I answer still half asleep.
Mom: Hi dear, we just wanted to talk to you before we go to sleep. 
Luna: It’s morning here. How are you?
Papa: We’re both beautiful dear, just tired.
Mom: How was your first day?
Luna: It was so much fun, I know I’m going to have the best time here. 
Papa: That is so great to hear. Someone wants to talk to you. The camera turned on my brother and I got so excited.
Sol: I almost forgot how you looked when you woke up. Here comes the nightmares again. 
Luna: Hermano, callate! (Brother, shut up!) How are you?
Sol: I should be asking you that big risk taker. 
Luna: I am beautiful, how is my niece?
Sol: Misses her aunt like her mama.
Luna: I miss you all. 
Mom: We miss you too. I have to put these kids to sleep. Deja que el fuego te guíe. (Let the fire guide you.)
Luna: Let the fire guide you.

I hung up the phone and put it on charge. Then I washed my face and brushed my teeth. My stomach growled and I went downstairs to find something to eat. As I open up the fridge, Ondreaz comes into the kitchen. 
Ondreaz: Sleep well? I close the fridge door.
Luna: Yes… You? 
Ondreaz: Great. I’m hungry wanna go get something to eat?
Luna: Yeah is anyone else coming?
Ondreaz: No, just us.
Luna: Okay, let me get my phone. 

I go upstairs and start panicking. What if he tries something or just tells me he likes me? We’re going to be alone for so long and he asked me to breakfast. All the movies say that's a date. I just need to play it cool. I go back downstairs. 
Luna: Let’s go.
Ondreaz: You want to drive or?
Luna: I’ll actually sit in the backseat.
Ondreaz: Okay?
I plugged in my headphones and ignored Ondreaz. I saw this in a movie, I’m going to make him not like me. 

We got to the breakfast restaurant and I barely said two words to Ondreaz. We got our food and sat in the restaurant. It’s so awkward until Ondreaz breaks the silence.
Ondreaz: Have I offended you in any way?
Luna: Why would you think that?
Ondreaz: You’ve been ignoring me and acting a little weird all morning.
Luna: Oh, how do you feel about that?
Ondreaz: Not good.
Luna: So I made you feel bad either way. Great.
Ondreaz: What do you mean?
Luna: I know you have a crush on me.
Ondreaz: Oh and you don’t feel the same way?
Luna: That’s the problem, I think I do but I don’t want to get into something when I leave in six months. 
Ondreaz: I understand that but shouldn’t that be even more reason to try. 
Luna: What?
Ondreaz: You came here wanting to explore life in every way. Why not try dating?
Luna: I’ve never dated before, why start now?
Ondreaz: To try something new. I looked down for a minute. He was right in a sense and even if he wasn’t he was too cute to refuse. 
Luna: Okay, you may have a point. Ondreaz looks up and smiles. 
Ondreaz: Well then Luna will you go out on a date with me? 
Luna: No… will you go on a date with me?
Ondreaz: Yes. We continued eating breakfast and went home. I saw Avani and started walking towards her. I looked back at Ondreaz. 
Luna: I’ll pick you up at seven. Ondreaz shook his head. 

Luna: Hey Avani
Avani: Hi Luna, where are you coming from?
Luna: This restaurant that only serves breakfast. 
Avani: Okay, what do you have planned today? 
Luna: Supposed to be decorating my room for my youtube channel and then I have 2 pov’s set up. What about you? Any awesome makeup videos?
Avani: Yes it’s going to take me about forever and I need to pick up some supplies. 
Luna: As do I. We should go together only no shopping just picking up supplies.
Avani: Too much yesterday huh? 
Luna: Yes. We both laugh. Kouvr comes down the stairs.
Kouvr: Hey guys. What are you up to?
Avani: Hi we’re going out to get some stuff for our videos. Want to join?
Kouvr: Yes.
Avani: Meet back in an hour. I went up to my room and wrote a list down of things I needed for my new room. It wasn’t a lot, just enough to make me comfortable. I got ready and wore this.
