Xena Pov:
"Ring ring....ring ring "my eyes were closed so I just kept hitting the phone but the alarm wasn't going off it just got louder and louder until I opened my eyes and put it off the
I screamed "fuck you couldn't let me sleep for 15 more minutes" I was frustrated,
it has been a week since I returned to London it has been good but now it's the first day of school and I have to wake up at 10 am for my morning lectures
"Should I just be like Ella and not give two fucks about school"
I thought but still got up anyway to get ready Anway I will be late so I took a quick shower and dried my hair tied it in a high ponytail and went to my walk-in-closet to get dressed
I choose to wear a blue nee high dress with a-line cut and flower embellishments on it and a black naked wolf boot paired with a black tote bag when I was done I went to put on some accessories I put on a gold necklace with some rings and a pair of gold butterfly earrings and I was done I looked in the mirror and satisfied with my outfit I smiled and went to grab my keys and leave my house I head to the garage and get in my car and drive towards the university suddenly I thought
"I haven't eaten, should I stop by Starbucks to get some coffee and dessert?" I thought about it a lot but in the end, I decided to go to Starbucks to have an iced americano and a chocolate croissant and started eating on my way to the campus when I got there I got out of the car and ran to the classroom I was late
"Why did I have to get food," I thought shit I'm late. This is bad as I ran to the classroom as fast as I could. When I got to the classroom I tried to be as quiet as possible while looking for somewhere to sit I finally find one but It was next to Darren
"Why does it have to be him I don't have to crush on him more shit, just act natural X," I thought while taking deep breathes and sitting near him he looked over at me for a few seconds then looked back at his laptop then whispered in a low voice only we could hear
"you're late" I look back and smile awkwardly while answering "yeah I was hungry" he just chuckles and replies "I figured here are the notes" while handing me some notes, I smile at him then say
"Thank you" he just nods and continues with his computer I try to read my notes but my eyes just kept on peeking at him you know when people say men look most handsome while working it's true, I never understood this till I saw this sight to behold
"Jesus this fine specimen is Darren Auclair Rivera he is fully Italian but grew up in England I could say he is my friend, Darren he is a sweet yet oddly cold boy I met in my class he usually is cold and unapproachable and doesn't make friends most of the time but once you get to know him, he's adorable and a big softie no one can not like him he just has that personality. Darren is a 6ft 5 tall boy who looks small on the outside but I bet he is jacked because he is on the basketball and track team, he has long dark brown hair shoulder length hair and blackish-like puppy eyes paired with long eyelashes that could make a girl green with envy and a long nose with rosy lips paired with dimples that often make him look like a puppy or a girl. Darren is one of the hottest boys at our university but he is kind of clueless about it or he knows but doesn't care either way he's like that he is also one of the smartest even though he could skip class for a few days or months but still get the highest grade it's impressive, on top of that his family is one of the richest in the whole country but he doesn't flaunt their wealth he is more of a silent one with it but he is studying to be the next CEO of the company, to be honest, he is almost perfect from my view but who knows, I got to know him on the first day he helped me so we talk often, we are friends not very close but still friends but over this year I have developed a crush on him I want to tell him but I don't think he feels the same but I will wish me luck" I thought "
here goes nothing" I whisper to myself gathering my strength then I turn to look at Darren when I catch him staring at me that means he was looking at me this whole time it causes me to have a goofy smile and a bright red face "calm down X and ask him," I thought while fanning myself then I clear my throat while Darren continues staring at my causing me to blush and stare, I start speaking
"Uh d-d-Darren are you free this week?" he looks confused but still answers "yeah I'm free why?" I bite my lower lip and answer "well I just wanted to hang out with someone and you're my only friend" he just laughs and says "sure X text me I'm always free"
I smile at him goofily and answer "okay" right then the bell leaves and I pick up my things, look at him and say "are you coming?" He just says "yeah you go first" I nod and reply "okay see you later Darren" he just smiles.
Darren Pov:
I sat down when I got to class in my normal seat but I didn't see Xena "she is late as usual" I mumble while sitting down, while taking notes then I thought
"What is she doing that always makes her late" I just smile and continue taking notes for me and her then she finally graces us with her presence and walks into class then looks around for a while before seeking the seat next to me, she seemed hesitant for a second and I thought
"Did I do something wrong why doesn't she want to sit next to me" then I look back at her as she takes a deep breath and walks towards me, I look back at my notes so she doesn't catch me staring at her and I pretend to be serious with what I'm doing as soon as she sits down, I look at her
"you're late" she smiles awkwardly and answers me "yeah I was hungry" I just chuckle she's as cute as ever I procced to reply to her while handing her the notes "yeah I figured here are the notes" she looks back at me and smiles brightly while saying "thank you"
I freeze while my heart did a summersault and my ears start turning red, I just nod to avoid her noticing and go back to my computer pretending to do something important but as I was pretending to be serious, she kept on stealing glances at me making me squirm and feel somewhat exited
"Why is she looking at me like that?" I thought that just as I looked back at her she was in a deep trance staring at me from head to toe.
"That's her Xena Tanaka Williams, Xena we met her first day of school when I Helped her and we started talking occasionally after that as time gradually passed, I started to like her but I'm too shy to admit that I guess so I try to flirt with her to show her hints but she's too dense. Xena, she is the most beautiful girl in school maybe in only my eyes but still, she is 6ft 1 always been the tallest girl with long dirty blond hair paired with grey sharp cat-like eyes with a long straight button nose and natural rosy light pink lips she also has these very cute upper cheek dimples when she smiles and a few freckles with a natural blush, truly a beauty to behold not to forget her long legs and model-like figure but a little curvier and plumper hence why I think she is the most beautiful girl in school with unrivalled beauty.
X is also the richest one in school because she is the next CEO of Williams enterprises it's not like she didn't work for it she is second on the whole campus but she has her demerits too most people think of her as a spoilt heiress because she doesn't get close to people and is often quiet and cold but she is nice and warm also very loud she just doesn't get close to these people cause they don't want to be her friends they just want to use her and it's not like she doesn't act like a spoilt heiress sometimes she does that's how she is but she has this childlike innocence that makes it hard for most people to dislike her that's Xena, I have liked her for a long time and I have finally decided to tell her to wish me luck"
I thought while still staring at her she looks at me finally out of her daze and starts blushing I try to hide my smile not to make it obvious that
I think she is freaking adorable she gets bright red in the face and gives me her goofy smile causing me to slightly smile but I mask it quickly then she starts fanning herself and looks back at me while I am still staring at her causing her to blush again, she clears he throat then proceeds to ask
"Uh, d-d-d-dDarren are you free this week?" I'm confused because I didn't expect her to ask this but I still answer "yeah I'm free why?" She bites her lip causing me to malfunction
"Why is this girl trying to give me indecent thoughts does he not know what she can do to people with that look," I thought while trying to focus
She then answers my previous question "well I just wanted to hang out with someone and you're my only friend" I just laugh and think
"I'm always free for you" but I decide not to say that now so I just answer "sure X text me I'm always free" she then smiles at me goofily and answers "okay" right then the bell leaves and she starts to pick up her things than looks at me and says "are you coming?" I just nod and answer
"yeah, you go first" she nods and replies "okay see you later Darren" I just smile, when she is finally out of the class, I take a deep breath and mumble "that damn girl is going to be the death of me" the I ask myself
"Darren what are you doing why are you blushing so hard, this is going to kill me I have to confess this weekend" I look around and realize I'm the only one left in class so I pack up my stuff and head out the door only to find Xena waiting for me at the door I look at her from behind and think
"This girl is going to be the death of me" I shake my head then walk over to her and tap her shoulder she turns took look at me she realizes that it's me so she smiles
"I've been waiting for you, let's go. The next class is about to start" I just shake my head and ask her
, "I told you to go first why are you waiting for me?" She just smiles and answers "just because, let's go we are going to be late" then pulls me to the next class.
