Confused

"Aaarrgh"

This is so not what I signed up for when I decided to go to college. There's only so much work a scholar can take (I'm not trying to rub it in or anything) and on top of all that I have edits to do for my clients, I mean I can't just leave them hanging!.

All of this is what makes me really happy that the end of semester break is near like in a few months or so but of course it comes with the down side. Exams. And let me tell you that no matter how smart I am I don't think I will get used to getting my brain tested in such a cruel way. I mean who invented those things!.

(AN: Maybe that was a little bit of me speaking😅)

For the hundredth time today my head crashed into my desk table as rose again to look at my progress on my assignment and guess what? I had somehow managed to mix up my graphic work with my school work and the last paragraph just read gibberish. I sighed getting up. That is work for another time.

Getting into the shower--, yes I haven't showered because some lecturer thought it'd be pretty funny to give out assignments at the crack of dawn.

Stripping myself of my night wears, I got into the shower and turned on the water to the right temperature. Warm but hot enough to fend off the cold weather. Letting myself come undone under the fast running droplets of water cascading down my skin, I let my mind wonder to the randomness of my mind till it all again stopped at a pair of stormy grey eyes. Asher.

Things had gotten.. weird after that day and that was two days ago. Not weird like awkward but weird like 'we can't seem to say anything to each other yet' type of weird and it's driving me nuts because one; we're in the same space and two; not being able to talk to him had made me aware of the slightest details about him like the way he runs his hands through his hair all the time or the way he narrows his eyes when he's annoyed or scrutinizing something and oh his lips, those plump pink-- get a grip Avery. You see what I mean? Its driving me nuts. I mean it was way easier when I hated him because that way I had other things to focus on apart from his gorgeous looks like his impending ego but now...I don't know.

After getting dressed and taking my supplements, I walked out of my room  and my dorm building and off to classes for today.

"Oof, oh I'm sorry I didn't see you there--"

"Save it." I was apparently cut off by the person I bumped into "You obviously weren't watching where you where going just as you weren't watching who you were getting involved with." My brows furrowed.

"Excuse me?"

"Stay away from Asher. He's mine" the little blonde said and I blinked just before I burst out into a fit of laughter holding my tummy and all and after a few seconds I calmed down and met the surprised face of little miss blonde here.

"What is this high school?" I said with a scoff "I mean seriously?. But you know what? No one tells me what to do and who to associate with so I suggest you watch it before that pretty little face of yours gets bruised" I walked past her and into my class and right unto my chair slumping down on it.

'What a life'

Tyler

I was panting cause I just had the most most heated air striping kiss of the century.

"That was-"

"-Amazing" the one responsible for my disheveled state cut me off.

"Hey we should get going before-"

"Yeah let's go"

We both had different classes now so we split ways and I made my way to my next class being with Ave.

I would describe Avery as a strong girl, independent and so fucking badass just lately she's been a bit off and I'm not the type to pry into peoples business so I just thought of a way to cheer her up.

"Sup A" I greeted when I got near and plumped down on a seat next to her. She threw me a grin and we fist bumped.

"How bout we head to a gym tomorrow. Get all that stress of your back"

She wiped a fake tear while smiling and agreed. That girl loved to work out I came to know"

A couple minutes into class I noticed her mind started to drift. How do I know that? Well you see the Avery that I know wouldn't keep a straight face or a shut mouth when the person sitting right in front of her is determinately digging through his nose like full blown 'I must find buger' kind of digging with his face turned sidewise so she had a view and she just sat there looking like she was concentrating on the guys finger. Some people have no shame.

Looking back and forth between the two I decide to speak up

"Uh hey Ave?"

She snapped out of her trance and turned to me. "Hmm?"

"You okay?"

"Yeah sure why?"

"Well for starters you've been absent minded and you didn't seem to notice that" I mentioned motioning to the guy in front of her with my eyes. She followed my  view and she cringed.

"Hey did you find any gold yet cause your really going deep in there" she managed to say making the guy freeze with the tip of his finger half way down one nostril causing the classes attention cause Avery's voice was pretty loud.

Long story short, it ended with a class full of snickers, laughter and a very red faced guy.

This is why she's my friend. She always seemed to make life more interesting.

Avery

I was on my way to another class which the school decided to put at another building and I bumped into someone. It was a guy and according to my stereotype about this school he was cute and he had dimples though not as cute as Asher's.

"Hey sorry about that" he gave a light chuckle "Avery right?" Damn his voice was like vanilla

"Yeah"

"I'm Luke"

"I'm Avery"

"Yeah I think that's been established" he chuckled and when I thought about it, my face burned up a little.

"Your cute. Definitely not as scary as everyone says you are but I have to go now, I'll see you around?"

"Yeah sure"

Flashing me one last grin he walked off and only when he left did I realize the burn on my back like someone was watching.

I got back to the dorm and the moment I open the door and got in I was pined against it and was immediately hit with the scent of wet sand and a bit of cologne.

Asher was staring down at me with an unreadable expression, our faces inches apart.

"What do you think your doing?" He asked

"I should be asking you that as to why you have me pinned against the damn door"

He leaned in and I could feel his breath on my neck. My lips parted when I felt him take a short whiff

"Your being a naughty little princess"

"What are talk-- ahh" I was cut off by the pleasure that shot through me. He just bit my ears.

"Mmm ahh A-ash- m-my ears are s-s-sensitive"

"Are they now" he mumbled against them and continued his torture. I was trying my best not to moan as he left kisses down my neck sucking and biting each piece of flesh that met his lips that was until he found my sweet spot and sucked hard. That action alone made my eyes roll back. No guy had ever made me feel so good with just a kiss on my skin.

After a few more seconds, he pulled away putting a good distance between us leaving me panting lightly.

"Are you hungry?"

My mouth fell open at his question acting like nothing just happened a moment ago.

"What?"

"Are. You. Hungry.?" He asked again with each word he took a step forward and just like that we were back to inches apart. My breath hitched.

"Y-yes?"

He pulled away again "good, I ordered two boxes of pizza by mistake and I can't finish them both. It'll be here in twenty minutes"

To say I was stunned was an understatement. I was loss for words but still went with it and decided to have a shower while we wait with one thought on mind.

'What was that all about?'
