Chapter Two

Maia

I'm aware that I'm staring at this guy for a bit too long. I mean, how do you speak to someone who looks like he was a God in his past life at least?

After a whole 2 minutes of staring at him, I finally say "You must be in a rush if you couldn't see I was coming"

He lifts a brow and stares into my eyes, which makes me feel hot all of the sudden.

"You were on my way." He says as he walks past me.

Unbelievable. The audacity this guy has.

After that incident earlier, I came to this café that's almost at the exit of campus and grabbed myself some food. I'm sitting by myself looking outside the huge window and I can see all the students and their friends hanging out. From the corner of my eye, I see a tall figure approaching me. I look to see it's Danny.

"Hey Maia, nice seeing you here" he says and points to the empty seat in front of me.

I nod, telling him he could have a seat.

"Hey Danny, how are you?"

"I've been good. Just busy running around and preparing for the party tomorrow"

"Party?" I ask as if he's speaking foreign to me.

"Yes party. We are throwing one since school is starting soon. Maybe you should come tomorrow, that way you get to meet everyone." He tells me with a smirk.

I'm tempted to tell him yes, but I'm actually debating whether or not I should waist my time at a party when I know people won't even like me. I hate to feel this way but back in California it was hard for me to have friends because people just didn't seem to like me. What makes this place any different?

"I don't think so, but thank you for the invite." I tell him while looking out the window.

Danny let's out a deep breath before speaking again "Come on, it'll be fun. You won't be alone if that's what you're worried about. I'll be there and so will Alyssa." He says with a small smile.

I look at him and give him a quick nod.

"What time and where is the party?"

Danny tells me the parties information and we both eat while talking. He's pretty nice. He seems to look at me too long sometimes which I had to hold my tongue and not say something rude to him about it.

I'm a Sagittarius. I'm blunt most of the time and I also have a hard time keep my mouth shut when someone is talking shit. But, I'm trying to start new, and that means I need to start calming myself and ignore dumbass people. That'll be hard.

————————————

I got to my room almost an hour ago and the room was still empty. No sign of my roommate. I wonder who she is.

As I'm finishing putting my PJs on, the door opens and a black haired girl walks in. She's tall and really tan. Lucky bitch. I was so fixed on her, I didn't see the tall and very familiar guy walk right behind her.

I let out a silent gasp when I make eye contact with the guy that dropped me earlier.

Why is he here? Why is he with her? Are they together?

One of my questions were answered when she grabbed him by the hand and pulled him close to her. She tippy-toed and pecked him on the lips. She hasn't even noticed me, great.

I try not to look at them because it feels so awkward. However, I feel his eyes on me.

Suddenly, I hear her gasp loudly.

Great, she noticed me.

"And you are?" She asks me with a hint of annoyance.

I guess she was hoping to be alone with him.

"Hi, I'm Maia." I say awkwardly.

"Right, well do you mind leaving so we can have a moment?" she says and points her thumb at the God like guy that's standing very close to her, while his eyes are still focused on me.

What's with everyone staring at me for so long?

I let out an annoyed sign. I know I said I need to be calm but this girl really asked me to leave my own room so she can fuck. I think not.

I give her a look and shake my head. She rolls her eyes at me and turns to him.

"Why don't we go to your room instead?" She asks him, rolling her finger up and down his chest.

"Nah, maybe another time." He tells her as he backs away and turns to leave our room but not before he gives me one last glance over his shoulder.

Well this is going to be interesting. I can already tell my roommate doesn't like me, how fun.
