Chapter 36: Anatomy Ace
Nina
I had an anatomy exam the next day and after my shift with Tiffany I needed to get some studying done. It was nice and sunny out, which was a welcome relief after the weather being gloomy and rainy for the past couple of days, so I decided to find a spot to sit under a tree where there were few people.
A few minutes after I sat down in a spot a little ways out from campus in a quiet park, Luke showed up. He walked over to me and stood right in the way of the light.
“You’re blocking the sunlight,” I said, not looking up from my notebook.
“Oh. Sorry,” he said, stepping out of the way. He continued to stand there, just staring at me. I tried my best to ignore it in the hopes that he would just go away since I was not in a good mood at all after seeing Enzo’s hickey, but he didn’t budge. Finally, I slammed down my pencil and glared up at him.
“If you’re gonna hang around, at least sit down or something,” I growled.
“Okay.” He immediately plopped down on the ground.
I couldn’t help but smirk a bit, amused by his doglike obedience.
“What’s so funny?” he asked, cocking his head. As he did so, I could hear the faint rattle of his vertebrae clacking together.
“Nothing,” I replied, returning to my work. “You’re just… Do you have any thoughts of your own?”
Luke was silent for several moments before speaking. “Of course I do,” he said finally.
“Why don’t you share them, then?”
