Luna ran down to the kitchen after a long, hot shower. Of course she didn't go down before putting some clothes on, she wouldn't run down naked people!
She had time before a certain guy would appear with his car outside her house, all she could think about was how her parents would react. Luna's mom liked Lorenzo, even after what he did to her last year. Her dad, on the other hand, couldn't even stand hearing his name after breaking his little girls heart.
Luna took some cornflakes out of her cabinet, she poured it into a purple bowl that she had actually gotten from Catherine. It felt like she hadn't seen her in forever, but she WAS going to sit in the same car as her today.
She tried to open the fridge, but problem is this fridge has REALLY strong magnets. When she finally got it open it slammed against the wall and she fell on her ass, which hurt kind of a lot. She got her self up, but she had to look at her butt to see if it was punctured or flat first.
After checking she took the milk out and poured it in the bowl, then put the milk back and slammed the fridge shut again. Before eating her bowl of cereal she had to slap her fridge a little bit for hurting her first.
"HOW DOES IT FEEL TO GET SLAPPED, HUH?! YA LITTLE PUNK!", just as Luna turned around she saw Tim just looking at her with a VERY confused look. She had no explanation and it would look even weirder if she would even try to give him one, so she gave him an awkward look and took her bowl of cereal and started eating instead.
While eating Luna couldn't stop thinking about that dream she had, *cough* *cough* I mean NIGHTMARE. It was so hot and she never wanted it to stop, but when she saw Lorenzo's face she couldn't help it. She had to scream.
She didn't like this guy, never had. Then why did she have a NIGHTMARE like this about him?
"Doesn't even make sense...", Luna looked down in her cereal bowl, frustrated and confused. "I have never looked at Lorenzo in that way, then why would my mind give me a nightmare like that?", she tried to speculate on how she might have gotten that dream.
"Maybe...", Luna scratched her head. "Maybe it's because of that text he sent that I started chuckling at...", her face lit up, that was probably it! She had had a dream about him because of tha--
Wait...
That doesn't make sense still...
You CAN'T have an erotic dream because of a text, if that's the case then that's just weird... But I'm not here to judge, so we'll let Luna have believe it for now...
"YES! THAT'S IT!", Luna smiled at the fact that she just figured it out all by her self. A sudden honk made Luna jump, it came from outside...
Of course she knew who it was, but she wanted to look anyway. She looked through the curtains in the kitchen and there he was, Lorenzo was leaning on his car outside. He was driving a black BMW, it was a very nice car and Luna couldn't help but to think that it fit him perfectly.
BMW? Does that stand for "Bitchy Motherfucking w***e"?
She couldn't help but to laugh at the thought, she would have asked him if that was what it stood for. On the other hand, she promised her mom she would act like they weren't "enemies" for one day.
Lorenzo grabbed his phone out of his pocket and started tapping on it, Luna felt her curiosity creeping. A sudden buzz from her phone and she knew exactly who it was from.
'Are you ready to go sweet-cheeks? I'm standing outside ;)'
Luna slipped on her shoes and threw her bag over her shoulder.
'I'm coming right now'
'That's what I would make you scream if we were in bed :d'
His response made her gag, just when Luna thinks he's acting like a decent person he ruins it.
'Just... stop...'
'c:'
She opened the door and saw Lorenzo placing his phone back in his pocket, for some reason she was nervous when she got closer to the car. She was about to open the car door, but a manly hand opened it before she could even touch the handle.
"Ladies first", he looked at Luna with big smile. Suddenly her heart felt like beating out of her chest, not because she was in love. There was something else going on...
He was so close to her now, she could smell him. LITERALLY SMELL the guy, he smelled just like her nightmare. Cologne and sweat.
"Are you going to get in the car or do you want to stare at me some more?", she blushed. She had forgotten that she was staring at him, with a swift motion she got in the front seat. Lorenzo felt himself smile, she was staring at him and when he called her out she started blushing.
Lorenzo walked in front of the car and then to his side, he sat down in his seat and turned the car on. Luna didn't look at him, she kept looking forward. He couldn't help but notice so he grabbed her hand, she was now looking at him with a shocked look.
"Don't be afraid sweet-cheeks, I promise I won't crash... Well... I'll at least try", Luna rolled her eyes while Lorenzo laughed. She wasn't AS nervous now, but it was still very awkward.
She had an EROTIC NIGHTMARE about HIM for Christ's sake!
She would never tell him about it, because that would just spike his ego, but also because she didn't want to admit that she was still a little attracted to him. If Luna would have told him that he would probably do the same thing he did one year ago... He would give her all the reasons as to why he would never like her.
In what felt like just a few seconds they were already outside Catherine's house, now all they had to do was wait for her to come out.
"Could you just send a text to your friend that we are outside?", Luna looked at him and nodded. She took her phone out of her pocket and started typing, for some reason she was typing slower than what she usually does.
'Hey, we're standing outside right now. Are you ready to go?'
She waited patiently for a response, Luna stared t her phone intensely waiting for her to start typing.
"Careful Sweet-cheeks, you might actually burn a hole through your phone if you keep staring", he chuckled to himself. Luna couldn't help but laugh a little bit as well, she probably looked ridiculous right now...
"Sorry, she's just really slow at typing and I don't want to be late", he looked at Luna confused.
"Late? You've got to be kidding me, school doesn't start in thirty minutes and you're worried about being late?", she looked at him with a grin. She just liked being early, there was nothing wrong with that.
"Some people actually like being at school early Lorenzo, you might think this is weird, but I actually ENJOY learning", he looked at her with a smile. Yes, she was annoying, but she was funny when she wasn't being a total b***h.
"I KNOW you like learning, in fact, EVERYONE knows you like school more than actually being home", he gave Luna a slight smirk. He wasn't wrong actually, she liked school more than being home. She just felt safer there than with her parents, that is mostly because they are werewolves.
Not that she has anything against them being werewolves, but you never know when a deal has gone bad or if we suddenly have to move. That's why Luna's parents often go on trips all the time, well ONE of her parents.
Greg never felt like a parent to her, but she called him dad to please her mom. After Greg became a family member everything changed, for the better or for the worse is something Luna has tried to figure out for a long time.
She missed her father, there was no denying that. At least she had a spare for now...
Her phone buzzed, it was from Catherine.
'I'm ready to go now, I'll be out in a sec ;)'
'BTW you just HAVE to tell me more about that "nightmare" you had about Lorenzo ;d'
Luna quickly turned her phone off, she looked over at Lorenzo. He had leaned towards her and was now just a few inches away from her face, she could feel her face turn hot. Had he seen the text? Please say he didn't see it!
"So...", he took a long pause. She couldn't even look at him, someone please just kill her now...
"YOU had a "nightmare" about ME? Wanna tell me about it or...", Luna turned around to face him. He wasn't helping the situation, he was staring at her and lifting his eyebrows up and down in a swift motion.
"It wasn't about you! I-It was... It was...", she had to come up with something and fast. Suddenly she got an idea.
"It was about... LORD ENZO!", he looked at her confused.
"Lord Enzo? Who the f**k is that?"
"It's a guy from "The Vampire Diaries", his name is actually just Enzo, but I just call him lord Enzo instead...", Lorenzo was confused. It didn't really matter though, he wasn't going to argue about a guy from a stupid series anyway.
"If you say so...", Luna let out a sigh as her heart finally slowed down a little. Catherine was going to hear it when they were at school away from Lorenzo, maybe even torture her a little for making it even MORE awkward in the car now.
Luna looked out of the window, Catherine was running towards the car with her bag on her shoulder. She opened the car door and stepped inside.
"I'm here, my sister was occupying the bathroom and she wouldn't let me in before she was done shitting"
"Catherine..."
"Yes Luna?"
"Too much information..."
"Oh, sorry, heh...", Catherine slipped her seat belt on and put her phone back in her bag. Lorenzo made sure everyone was wearing the belt before driving off.
The ride was very quiet, after what Catherine had written on her phone Luna wouldn't even dare open her mouth. Catherine on the other hand had no problem what so ever, she put on some Italian music in his car. She knew that Luna spoke fluent Italian and from her favorite artist as well.
"Sing Luna!"
"No..."
"Please!!!"
"Ugh..."
(This is just an Italian song that I like, if you want to listen to it it's called "Soldi" and it's by a singer called Mahmood)
Luna was about to sing the song, she just had to get her voice ready for singing. Catherine was eager to hear her sing, because she had this song on her mind all the time and she thought her friends voice was very beautiful.
"one, two, three, GO!"
"In periferia fa molto caldo"
Lorenzo looked at Luna, he didn't know she knew Italian. Sadly he couldn't her more of the song since they were already at the school.
"NO! We have to stop the song, we're already here", Catherine stopped the song on her phone and turned it off. Luna wasn't as sad, because she didn't like her voice at all. She always got hate from the girls for having a good voice, even though she was told not to care what they said. They would always find a way to get in her head.
"You girls walk out first, I'm going to park my car a little further away", Luna and Catherine nodded and walked out. Before Luna closed the door Lorenzo called her name, what did he want now?
"Luna!"
"What?"
"You really have a beautiful voice you know, so don't listen to the other girls...", he grabbed her door and slammed it shut then drove off. Luna was left standing there in shock, he just gave her a compliment that wasn't lewd. Maybe he wasn't that bad after all...
Catherine and Luna started walking towards the school and the rest of the day was a blur, all Luna could think about was what Lorenzo had said to her.
He was... Nice...
Still... He was a total player, even Luna couldn't forgive him after just one compliment. Even if it did mean a lot to her that he, of all people, said that to her.
After school there was only one and a half hours left before the birthday party, and two hours until Luna would find out who her mate was...
Now her waiting would finally be over, she would finally find the man she was supposed to be with for eternity. Not even Lorenzo entered her mind, she was going to find her love!
Little did she know that, soon, Lorenzo was the only thing she would think about...
