ROSALYN
"Goodbye, see you tomorrow. Do review our lesson for tomorrow."
"Goodbye, Miss."
When our professor finally left I then looked on my left side. I was sitting beside Nicholas.
"Nico, are you coming with me?"
I asked him and he lazily stood up as he picked his bag.
"Where?"
"Cafeteria."
"Okay."
Since I do not know our classmates I felt left out. The students do already knew each other and the only person I knew in class was Nicholas. No, one tried to talk to me that is why I was sticking into him.
That is why I tried to be silent as possible when I'm with him so he won't leave me here all alone.
"Let's go eat now, since we need to be in room 207 before one."
I heard one of our blockmates say that.
"Ugh, I hate that professor of ours, she was already assigning the reporters."
"Let's bring snacks to our class."
I heard the complaints of the students as we walked silently. Too much for our first week huh?
"Hey, Jasmin!"
I called her when I saw her, and when she turned around she saw us. She then waved her hand at me and there was a girl beside her.
"Hi! Our class just ended."
"Ours was finished 30 minutes ago and we have class later at 2."
"Oh, we have a class at 1."
"By the way this is Aria."
"Hello guys."
"Hello nice to meet you, I'm Rosalyn."
"Hi, Rosalyn."
She then smiled at me and I nodded at her, she didn't bother Nicholas who was silent at the back.
"So, where's Jasper?"
"He's already at the cafeteria."
"Then who are we waiting for?"
I ask them and they shrug. We rushed to the cafeteria since many students were taking their lunch.
"For goodness sake. One of our professors did the lecture on our first day and we will be having a quiz tomorrow."
Jasmin said angrily and slam her hands on the table.
"He must be strict then."
"Yes. He didn't give us time to adjust on our first day. So inconsiderate."
"Nico..."
I called him and then he slightly leaned on me.
"Hmm?"
"Aren't you going to find Jasper? You're the only guy here."
I whispered that and he shook his head.
"I'm too lazy to do that."
He then started to eat and I murmured okay.
"Do you want some? Mom packed these sandwiches."
Before I even said an answer he already put it on my plate.
"Thanks. Cheesecake?"
"Sure."
We continued to talk about the happenings in our class a while ago when Nicholas excused himself.
"What was that? Did you two develop such romantic feelings just by sticking to each other this whole morning?"
I then hit Jasmin and she laughed. He did change but it must be him just being kind. My daddies must ask him to stay with me? I don't know.
"You two look sweet."
"As if we did something sweet, is it wrong to share your blessings?"
I shrugged my shoulders and Jasmin pointed me.
"I would really get angry at you if you did hide it from me."
"Hide what?"
I drink my juice and I almost burst it in front of them after I heard what she just said.
"You being with a relationship on that old man!"
I then tapped my chest and cleared my throat.
"You can have my word, Jasmin. We do not have that kind of relationship, not in a million years. And if I happen to have a boyfriend I want It to be the first and last. I am a date to marry person. But for now, my biggest priority is studying, and as if your cousin will like me."
"Hmm. You're wrong, Rosalyn."
She then smirked at me. Nah, I won't fall for her words again.
"Huh? You must be really joking."
"Don't mind me. Hehe."
"Ah, I notice Aria you seem to not know anyone here."
"Yes, I previously went to Almond University and I don't want to study there anymore. What about you?"
"We are the same, but I was from Flinton University and decided to study here. But it's not like I don't want in Flinton anymore, my daddy decides it. It's good though since I was with Jasmin."
"Gosh, you're from Flinton so you must know Allen. He was famous in our university after the basketball competition, Jasper and Nicholas too. That is why I was shocked when I saw them up close. They do look great."
"Allen, yes I knew him."
I just nod and smile at her. I still haven't talked to him after he confessed. I feel bad to just ignore him but I will definitely will be awkward in front of him.
"Haa, I'm surprised to know that they were famous in other universities. Why though?"
Jasmin asked and shake her head.
"That guy's head will get bigger once he hears this. It's already bad that he is famous. Gosh. He will brag this to me if he knew."
"Well, your twin has a face that everyone does like, such a handsome guy he is."
I said and Jasmin acted like she was gonna puke.
"Please, stop."
"Anyways, I bet you know this one, but girls keep on talking about Nicholas. He was really famous here."
"Yeah. I heard some of them talking about him..."
I then shake my head and look around.
"It was so obvious, with a face like that... he is sure pulling every single person we saw in our campus."
"You must have a good sense of hearing for you to hear them in this noisy place."
"I think so too. The girls in the hallway a while ago were talking about how they want to get his number."
I then laughed and both of them looked at me.
"What's funny?"
Jasmin squinted her eyes and poked me.
"What? I was just laughing because they got scared to go near him since he was always not in the mood. You know, he goes with this face everyday."
Then I tried to immitate his face frowning and we all laughed.
"Who's that person?"
I almost jumped from my seat when I heard him say that. I then held my chest and glared at Nicholas.
"That scared me!"
"Heh. What are you all talking about?"
"We are talking about how grumpy you are."
Jasmin showed her wide smile and Nicholas' face crumpled.
"See? That's what Rosalyn do a while ago."
"Hey, no need to say that out loud."
Then we both laughed, Nicholas' face remained crumpled until we finished laughing.
"Done?"
"Yeah, Kinda,"
I said and he sighed. He looked at Jasmin and showed his phone.
"Maybe you want to go to your room now since it was already 12:50."
"The heck! Aria let's go now, our next class is in the next building!"
I watched them get their bags and say goodbye before they leave us there. Nicholas then gets his bag and looks at me. He must be going to leave the campus.
"Are you going to stay here?"
He asked and I shook my head.
"I plan to go in the gymnasium. I want to watch the new players."
"Then I'm going to the library since it was near to our next class. I'll go now, see you in a bit."
I said and he remained looking at me for a minute, I bit my lip when I felt this weird feeling again.
"I think it was better to wait in the library... Yes, let's go then."
"Okay."
I followed Nicholas and since there is a not-so-large gap in our distance I got to look around. There are students who are looking at Nicholas and will smile whenever they see him.
"There were better girls around... brainy ones, good looking ones with a good future. He need to choose a better on this time..."
"Did you say something?"
I look at him and shake my head. I didn't realize I was already voicing out my thoughts. When we arrived in front of the library I was a bit surprised when it opened and I happened to see the council president.
"Hello."
I greeted him with a smile.
"Oh. The girl in the grocery store who gave my wallet back,"
He said and I nodded.
"Ah, yes that's me. Nice meeting you again."
"I see. Thanks for that day."
"No worries."
"First year?"
Then he looks at Nicholas and I nod.
"Yes."
"Hm. Go inside with your boyfriend now, thank you again for that day."
My eyes widened and before I even corrected him he already left us there.
"What was that?"
When I looked at Nicholas I sighed in relief when he was just standing there calmly. I was glad that he was not mad, I guess he didn't hear what he said.
But why I do feel happy about it?
How can he assume that we are a couple? Ugh, my heart won't stop beating so fast because of that!
