Maia
I couldn't wait to get out of there. I needed to stop watching what was happening in front of my eyes.
Running like my life depended on it, I made it outside of the dorm.
It's raining right now and I don't even care that I'm getting soaked. I hate how loud my heart is beating and how I'm feeling butterflies in my stomach and not in a good way.
With the rain hitting my face, I can still feel how warm my tears feel against the cold rain water on my skin.
Why am I crying? Why do I feel like I got sucker punched in the face?
I go to lean against the brick wall by the stairs that lead you to the dorm. I need to stop thinking right now. I don't know why I feel hurt but it needs to stop.
As if the universe was listening to me, Danny approaches me.
Im so glad he's here. He looks so good with the rain hitting his tall frame and messy blonde hair that looks dark right now.
He's wearing a button up shirt with jeans. The shirt is now wet and sticking to his body and I can tell he is very fit.
As Danny gets closer to me I see his eyes are gazing all over my body before landing on my eyes.
"Why are you down here in the middle of this rain?" I look at Danny's lips before I'm able to answer him back.
Licking my lips and playing with my fingers because I don't know if I should tell him what I witnessed. "I like the rain.. it brings peace to me. What about you? Why are you over here walking in the rain?" I look down at my feet.
"I was coming to find you actually. I was going to invite you to watch a movie over at my place." He says stepping closer to me and motioning me to sit on the stairs so we don't keep getting wet.
"Well I would love too" I would do anything to get out of here at this moment.
Normally I would of rejected him because it's only Monday and I do have class tomorrow.
But I can't go back to my room. I want, no, I need to forget what I saw. And even more so, I want to get rid of this feeling.
The guy and I only shared one kiss. A stollen kiss at that. And I want to be mad, but I can't.
Danny grabs my hand which snaps me from my annoying thoughts. Danny leads me to his dorm.
Danny's room is what you'll imagine a guys room would look like. Messy desk, full of papers and books. A few shoes and shirts on the floor. I think I spotted a condom raper in his trash also. He has a model in a very cheeky bikini hanging from the wall and a playboy magazine hiding under his pillow. I've also realized he doesn't have a roommate.
"Here you can wear this if you want so you don't stay in your wet clothes." Danny hands me a black t-shirt.
"Turn around" I motion to him with my fingers before stripping off my uncomfortably wet clothes and put his shirt on.
I've never worn anyones clothes before and I like the fact that I'm wearing Danny's.
"Okay you can look now" I say shyly.
"Wow, you look good in my clothes" he smirks turning to see me.
Walking to his bed, he pulls out his laptop. He motions for me to sit on his bed. I walk over feeling very nervous suddenly.
I hate having bad thoughts but the fear of being taken advantage of scares me..
I wish I could be normal and not have these stupid fears with people who haven't given me any reason to feel this way.
Danny seems to notice my mood change, "We are only watching a movie, don't worry nothing that you don't want to happen will happen." He gives me a little smile.
I nod and give him a smile back. Feeling more relaxed, we go back and forth about what movie we are going to watch. He wanted to watch something with a lot of action while I wanted something more scary like. We ended up settling for a show instead of a movie.
Three episodes in of American Horror Story and I started to feel myself taking long blinks.
"You seem tired. I can drop you off at your dorm if you like."
I am very tired. Today was not as I expected it to be. I want this day to be over. However, I don't want to go back there.
I sit up a bit so I can look at his face better. "I don't want to go back to my room.." My voice barely audible.
I can see confusion in his eyes. "Why not? Did something happen? Was that why you were alone in the rain?"
"Um no. Nothing happened it's just my roommate doesn't seem to like me and I don't wanna deal with it right now." I tell him while looking down at my fingers.
"Sophia is giving you a hard time huh, well you can stay the night if want, I can sleep on the floor."
So that's her name. God even her name is perfect. But how did he know she's my roommate?
"I mean it's your bed, you should sleep in it. I don't mind." I can't believe I'm saying this.
He searches my face for any hint of discomfort or doubt. He must of not find any because he gives me the cutest smile and nods.
Danny is trying so hard not to get too close to me in his tiny bed. It's almost impossible for him not to touch me. I want him to touch me.
I try to get comfortable but can't.
I turn to look at him and see he's facing me already.
"Is it weird that I want you to get closer to me?" I whisper.
"No, because I want to get closer to you also." He scoots closer to me and I feel his hand caressing my face.
It feels so good to have someone touch me and it not hurt.
After talking for a bit, sleep won the battle and before I knew it, I was sleeping in a cute, nice guys bed while he cuddles me.

The next morning I woke up early and sneaked out of Danny's room. I really need to get to my dorm to shower and get my books before class. I hope Sophia is sleeping and I pray to God that Michael left.
Opening the door, I enter the room with my eyes closed. Finding the courage to open them, I do and notice that only Sophia was there. Michael must of left right after he was done with her. Or maybe he stayed a while to cuddle her until she fell asleep and then he left.
Stop caring Maia. He doesn't mean anything to you.
Grabbing some clothes, I exit the room and go straight to shower. I let the hot water hit my body and I remember how nice it felt waking up while Danny was holding me.
I've never had anyone be so gentle with me before. I find myself wanted more of these feeling instead of the other ones I get with Michael.
Leaving the shower, I enter my room and thankfully she's still asleep. I grab my bag and quickly leave.
Getting to the cafe, I ordered a black coffee, and a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel.
I'm sitting outside today, got a table all the way by the trees in the furthest corner. The sky is bright and blue and I hope this means it'll be a better day.
I lose concentration in my book when I hear some voices talking. Both guys aren't talking very loud but their tone seem tense and that's what got my attention.
Michael is arguing with some other guy that's covered in tattoos. I can see some tattoos in the back of this persons neck and the side of his face also. They both seem to have some tension.
Michael's hands the guy a little bag with something in it. Looking all around themselves to make sure no one saw. Before they could see me in their business, I quickly look back down at my book.
I take a shaky deep breath, feeling as if I just saw something I wasn't supposed too. I force myself to focus back on my book while I take low-key deep breaths.
I look at my phone to see the time and I quickly get up to start making my way towards class.
Strong arms pull me away before I could make my way inside the class, turning around to see Michael, arms on his side with his fits and jaw clenched.
"You can't seem to mind your own business huh?" Annoyance in his tone.
Stepping back to creat some distance "I don't know what you're talking about" i snapped.
"Sure, but tell me hermosa did you enjoy walking in while I was balls deep in your roommate?" He asks with a mocking smirk.
He's unbelievable. What does he take me for?
Feeling rage take over me at the fact that he's mocking me and reminding me about that night, I push him away as hard as I can and walk into my class. Making myself a promise to never allow myself to feel any sorts of feelings for him. I hate him.
