《Falling Beginning》Chapter 8.

[Nea's POV]
I'm opening my eyes to a bright room. The sun's already high up and the room is so bright since the blind was not close yesterday.
"Ughhh It's too bright"
I cover my eyes with my right arm.
Wait a minute!
I quickly jump out of the bed and my hair falls down smoothly to my shoulder.
How in the world am I in bed?
I point to the edge of the bed where I fell asleep last night and to the bed.
Did I sleepwalk? But I'm a light sleeper, usually, I would even wake up to the tiniest sound.
Suddenly, I recalled seeing Adam slightly at the door yesterday.
Did he? No, it can't be. It's just a dream.
I laugh a bit before noticing my spectacles and hairband on the table lamp.
He did.
Reality hits me hard as I sit on the carpet beside the bed.
"Why am I such a nuisance," I mumble and sigh while looking outside the gigantic window next to the bed.
After a few minutes, I grab the hairband to tie up my hair in a bun and put on my spectacles. I go straight to the bathroom to wash up. I need to drown myself in the warm water to shed all of the negativity the day before.
I picked up a habit to drown myself in warm water to release all of the negative things that occurred in my life since two years ago. After about an hour in the bathroom, I walk out of the bathroom only to find Adam is sitting on the bed and he looks at me, eyes wide.
Probably due to the fact that my body is wrapped only in a towel. I forgot to take my clothes with me to the bathroom. I clear my throat, trying to make the situation not awkward, hopefully.

He stands up when he realizes that he was staring at me. He scratches behind his neck, averting his eyes from me. I can see his ears turns red.
Now, I'm embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know.."
"It's okay"
It's unavoidable since we're living together now anyway.
"Urm, I need to talk to you."
"Now?"
"Yeah"
He looks at me and quickly goes straight to the door.
"I mean after you dress up. I'll wait in the kitchen"
I look at him as he runs to the door and his ears, which turns almost as red as a tomato.
I giggle a bit as I walk in the dressing room across the bathroom. I pick out a white L size T-shirt and my white jeans. I blow dry my hair and then tie it high up in a ponytail. I wear my black spectacles and went straight to the kitchen.
I found him sitting on a stool at the big kitchen island which has a beautiful marble design as a top. I see him looking down at a note and his forehead wrinkled while his fingers are at it.
"Good Morning"
His head turns quickly at me, almost whiplash. It looks hurt to me.
"Good Morning"
He replies as I walk towards him to sit on the stool next to him. I literally climb on the stool to get a seat. He grabs my arm to help me.
"Thanks"
I try to avoid his gaze, but I see that he look at me from head to toe. Probably on what I was wearing.
"What is that?"
I point my finger to the note in his hand while taking the toast and jam to my plate.
"Coffee, Tea or Juice?"
He asks me while getting me a cup.
"Tea"
He looks at me with a questionable look and our eyes meet

"What?"
"You're not a British aren't you?"
"Just because I love tea doesn't mean I'm one"
He laughs a bit and pours me tea before handing it to me.
"What's with the note"
I spread jams to the toast and offers it to Adam, which he takes without hesitation
We didn't look like people who had arguments the day before.
"It's Mum and Dad. They fly to London early this morning, Dad has a business meeting. They probably stay there for a few days while Sara's at Leia's also for a few days"
"I see"
Wait a minute. We're alone? And for a few days?
He probably senses that I'm nervous as he looks at me.
I hold the cup up trying to cover my nervousness as I drank the tea.
"You said we need to talk"
He nods and gets down from the stool
"Follow me"
I look at him, puzzles but I follow him towards the pool.
I didn't notice this yesterday, It's big.
He sits on the bench near the pool and puts his hands together as if trying to find words.
"It's about us"
He starts to talk but his iPhone rings out. He ignores it at first but as the second time rings, he takes it out of his jeans pocket and unlocks it. He looks surprised and tries to dials but a message came in.
He opens it quickly and before I know it, He runs towards the door and takes his car key.
Hold up!
"Wait! Adam wait!"
I run quickly towards him and grab his arms, stopping him from getting out of the house.
He stops and looks at me. My heart beating so fast that my head starts to ache and my sights getting blurry. I'm getting panic.
"D D Don't leave me"
My voice sounds desperate.
I am.

Toradora!
Toradora!’s story begins with the male protagonist Ryuji Takasu who is frustrated at trying to look his best as he enters his second year of high school. Despite his gentle personality, his eyes make him look like an intimidating delinquent so he is utterly hopeless about his chances of getting a girlfriend anytime soon, and does not have many close friends either. After being greeted by his hungover mother in the morning, Ryuji goes to school and is happy to find that he gets to be in the same class as his best friend Yusaku Kitamura and crush Minori Kushieda. However, it is then that he unexpectedly knocks into “the school’s most dangerous animal of the highest risk level” — Taiga Aisaka — who just happens to also be in his class, and is a good friend of Minori. Taiga has a negative attitude towards others and will not hesitate to snap at people. After meeting Ryuji, she takes an instant dislike of him. Taiga comes from a rich family, though she moved out to live on her own due to family issues, and by coincidence is now living in an apartment next door to Ryuji. After Ryuji discovers that Taiga has a crush on Yusaku, and Taiga finds out about Ryuji’s affections towards Minori, Ryuji suggests that they cooperate so they can win the object of their affections. Ryuji says he will do anything to get closer to Minori, which Taiga exploits, making Ryuji her personal servant, and getting him to do household chores like cooking and cleaning for her. Taiga spends a lot of her time over at his house, so much so that she could almost be considered a member of his family. Since Ryuji spends a lot of time with Taiga, he is opened up to her world and to a side of her that most people do not see. The two also attempt to help each other in order to improve how people view them. Unknown to them, however, people they know from school start to become curious about their strange relationship together and rumors begin to spread about them.
