Solitude

She narrowed her eyes at him. "I don't know what your problem is but..." She trailed off and stood up. "You are being a total jerk. I was here to help you, you know. you looked lonely, and now i know why." She said. She turned to walk away, but slipped on her heels and hit the ground. She not only felt pain in her knee, which was bleeding, but her ego was bruised too. She closed her eyes and waited for him to start laughing at her.
 
Luciano watched her fall, her words still in his head. He knew he had a choice. Leave her there on the ground and walk away, or help her up. His conscience getting the better of him, he stood up with a sigh, gently picked her up, and sat her back on the bench. He wasn't going to apologise for being a 'jerk', though.

"Those are the most impractical shoes I've ever seen" he told her, looking down at them.
 
She was suprised when he didn't laugh. And even more suprised when he gently helped her up and sat her on the bench. he said her shoes were impractical, and she nodded. "I hate wearing them. My mom makes me. i don't think i have ever even worn practical shoes." Her knee was definitely bleeding now, and she felt sick to her stomach. that was possibly the most embarrassing thing she had ever done.

"Why did you help me?" She asked, looking at him with her two-colored eyes.
 
Luciano almost laughed at her question. This girl obviously thought he was some sort of monster.
"Maybe I'm just in a good mood today" he said quietly, looking down at her cut knee. He had helped her up, and now felt responsible for her. Pulling a tissue out of his pocket, he bent down and wiped the blood from her knee, and pressed the tissue to the cut, to stop the bleeding.
"Hold the tissue here" he told her, pressing her hand to the tissue, and standing up.
 
She smiled at him when he said he must be in a good mood today. Maybe this guy wasn't so bad after all. He pulled out a tissue and dabbed it on her knee. She flinched a little at the pain, but the smile was still on her face. She watched him as he pressed her hand against the cloth and told her to hold it there. When he stood up she frowned. "A-are you leaving?" She asked him, trying to hide the disappointment in her voice.
 
Luciano reached back, and stratched his neck. He really wanted leave and go... anywhere he could be alone.
"Um... No" he said, sighing as he sat back down. Luciano hoped that staying with Izumi didn't give her any ideas.
 
She noticed the hesitation in his voice, he obviously wanted to leave. "You can go if you want, I'm fine..." She said frowning a bit. She had wanted him to stay, but she knew not to make him do anything he didn't want to do. She twiddled her thumbs. "Just, if you do go... don't walk away thinking I'm some annoying twit who bothers you... just remember you don't know everything." She said tilting her head and looking at him out of the corner of her eye.
 
If we get accepted as transfers, then we can't continue this topic, because it's set in Y7

Sorely tempted to take her offer and leave, Luciano watched her, unmoving. I can be decent for a day he told himself, looking back at the opposite wall. Luciano wasn't in the mood for making conversation, as usual, and was content at tracing patterns with his eyes in the brick wall he was staring at. He wasn't showing it, but Luciano was thinking hard about her words. Just remember that you don't know everything... He concentrated most on that sentence. Maybe he had judged her harshly, off the bat. Usually he was very good at reading a person's personality. He himself was in the same predicament. Luciano doubted anybody would ever know, or understand everything in his life.
 
((Okay, then well we can end it if you would like, but you'll have to end it :D))

She smiled as he decided to stay. She didn't want to act curiously, but it had gotten the better of her. "DO you not have something to do?" She asked, refereeing to her old speech. He back was now aching from sitting up completely strait. She was about to relax,but remembered her training, so she did not. "If you do then leave with a good bye, and i will not think harshly of you." She smiled at him, and waited for his reaction. When her pride was wounded, the speech that had sliped out, was what she reverted to.
 
Luciano's brow furrowed
"Well... I might take you up on that" he said, standing up, and turning to her
"...Good bye" he said awkwardly. Giving her knee a last look, he shoved his hands back into his pockets, and walked away, disapearng into the darkness of the alley. The girl had given him a bit to think about, and he pondered this as he walked deeper into Bleak street.
