she was walking towards the greenhouse. this time she left her usual pile of books in one of the lockers in the institute and she just had her bag with her with a bunch of random things. she had a free period and that somehow coincided with axel’s free period so they agreed to meet each other. she was really happy about that, probably smiling way more than usual because some people were looking weirdly at her, but she didn’t really care. it was weird, because she always cared and then she immediately worried about it, but not today. she was just excited to see him again. she really liked this guy. she was there first; they picked a bench near the greenhouse because they agreed that there probably won’t be a lot of people at that time of the day. it was hot; not very hot, but still warm and she felt perfectly comfortable in her summer dress. she sat down and tried to distract herself, even though that wasn’t the easiest task because her thoughts kept going back to him. this was new. her mind was never that occupied with anyone before and she gave up the reading, closed the book and looked around. she saw him and there was a wide smile on her face immediately. ”hi stranger,” she said and got up, because it seemed rude to sit still while he was still walking towards her. she wasn’t entirely sure what to do – she would hug him, but then again this wasn’t his or her room and she didn’t feel all that comfortable and she was also a bit concerned over what he would have to say about that and if he would even want that so she probably did a really weird thing with her hands when she changed her mind and she sighed. ”okay, I am not really sure what to do now,” she admitted with a smile and looked at him. he was… lovely, yes.
