Ch. 1 Unbelievable

Already late and I didn't manage to eat breakfast. This day couldn't get any worse. I shouldn't have said that. It's bound to get worse now that I jinxed myself.The name's Olivia and right now, I'm sprinting down the halls of Cambridge University trying to make it to my Literature Class that I am desperately late for. Skidding around one of the corners and I almost lose my balance. I catch the side railing attached to the wall and reel myself back in to launch my momentum down the corridor.Holding onto my backpack straps for dear life as I bore my heels into the carpet to achieve a greater push as I stride through the building. I glance down on the watch on my left hand to see the hand clearly past its respective spot that would declare my late bum on time but I can't turn back time."NO RUNNING IN THE HALLS!!" The hall security screeches at me as I bolt by with rapidly increasing speed. Not as fast as I would hope to go with such tiny legs but I managed. I sk

Ch. 2 Unsure

I left the cafeteria unable to think straight after what happened. Faren stayed to finish her lunch and I decided to walk back on my own. I was completely perplexed that I hadn't seen Jason before since everyone else knew him so well.I shake my head and continue down the beaten path toward my dorm. I held onto my phone in my right hand as I walked and decided to check it to see if I had any notifications. Two messages from Gmail and nothing else. I stick my phone back into my pocket and decide to deal with them later.Opening the door to the dorm and still smelling the incense in the room, I let out a heavy sigh and flop onto my bed. I hear the door unlock and I sit up to see Faren had returned."Hey, I've been meaning to ask," I start as she enters the room."What is it?" She replied as she closed the door behind her."Do you like Jason?" I suggested since her reaction to when he entered the room changed her whole demeanor.She hesitated f

Ch. 3 Conflict

"Good, be honest. I honestly feel the same. I already read this chapter, I'm just here for attendance. I don't really need to be here. I'm sure it's the same for you as well." He commented leaning over his desk to talk to me.Seeing him up close is eventful since you get the whole picture. The hair, the eyes, the body. Why am I thinking about this? I shouldn't be thinking about this. I'm going to get murdered.He smirks and leans back into his chair. "Well, we better pretend we're paying attention." He adds and I blink a few times before turning around and looking back at our professor. I see a few girls had turned around when they heard his voice talking to me and instantly glare at me the moment I turn around.Regret for turning around and talking to him churns in my stomach. The look those girls gave me was enough to have me running for the hills. I didn't want to be there any longer than I had to be.Once the class was clarified over by the siren abov

Ch. 4 Aftermath

Whimpering only described the tip of the iceberg of the sounds I was making from the pain I endured. My nose was aching, my shin was on fire from her nails digging into them. My head hurt from how hard she pulled my hair and my hand was in excruciating pain. I laid on the floor withering in my torment while the others congratulated Stephanie on the fight."WHERE'S OLIVIA?! WHERE IS SHE?!" I hear Faron screech at the top of her lungs as she ran down the corridor. I see her squeeze through the crowd and she kneels down beside me. "What the fuck happened?! I heard you got into a fight. I didn't expect it to be this bad." She said trying to help me to my feet. She let me rest against her for support as I hobbled through the hallway. Some scoffed that I was on my feet again and bumped into me purposely.Faron glared at them and tried to protect me the best she could. Jason, on the other hand, was lecturing Stephanie while the crowd listened in to their conversation. I didn'

Ch. 5 Open

I kept walking as I held onto my wrapped arm. I thought he had given up on trying to stop me when he grabbed my upper arm under my shoulder and whipped me around to face him. "I'm not leaving till you tell me what's going on. Why do you need to stay away from me? What happened? Tell me everything." He begged as I tried to be released from his grasp but he held on tight."Stephanie, Stephanie is why I need to stay away from you." I blurted and pulled my arm away from him and kept walking. Thinking about even just the slimmest possibility of being with him drove me insane. I never felt like I wanted someone more in my entire life and now that he's here someone just takes away the chance and ruins it."Olivia look at me." He ordered, making me stop in my tracks and turn sarcastically."First off, don't give me that look. Secondly, to hell what Stephanie says. I talk to who I want, when I want, and where I want. So stop with this "I need to stay away from you" crap.

Ch. 6 Decision

'What was I supposed to say? What could I say? I couldn't just say yes, I barely know him. But what if I did, it would have been a dream come true. I can't answer him not like this. My body still aches from all the damage Stephanie did.' I think to myself as I walk away from a waiting Jason. The look of anticipation on his face was enough to make my heartbreak. But who knows if it was even real. Plenty of guys fake their feelings just so they could....do the birds and the bees.I walked down the hallway to my dorm and opened the door and laid on my bed with my eyes closed. What was I supposed to do? Now Faren will be beyond pissed because he likes me and I don't know what to do. If only the answer was an easy decision this would be cleared in seconds.The door slowly opens as a curious Faren peeks her head around the corner of the door and looks at me. "So he likes you..." she commented as she opened the door more. I simply groaned and turned onto my side to face away

Ch. 7 Getting to Know Y*u

The rest of the day was spent talking to Jason and conversing about stories and things we wanted to know about each other. I took the paper that had his number on it and inputted it in my phone and started texting him right away.Jason - "So you got around to text me have you? Assuming this is Olivia I'm speaking with."Olivia - "It's Olivia and my gosh you sure do have a way with words."Jason - "Well we are in college, I would hope I should have an adverse vocabulary."I check my phone to see his text and smile while I roll my eyes from his choice of words. He just doesn't seem his age, if I even knew what his age was. He's just so...mature, and I love it. I keep texting him back and forth until I reach my dorm once more. I open the door to get hit in the face by the smell of cinnamon and pumpkin spice."It sure smells like autumn in here in the middle of spring, Faren what's up? You only bring out these scents when there's something on your mind

Ch. 8 Left Guessing

I fiddled with the locket on the choker while we walked to the restaurant Jason had a reservation for. My other free hand was clasped in his as we walked casually down the sidewalk. The sun was setting behind the mountains as the reds and purples colored the clouds in the sky. Many people passing by were either getting food or starting their late-night shopping runs.After a few minutes, we stop in front of a fancy restaurant and he tugs on my arm when I felt we were gonna keep going and quickly turn my attention to him when I see where we were going to eat. "P.F. Changs? I haven't eaten here since my parents had their wedding anniversary. You got us reservations here for a mini-date?" I ask completely perplexed by his decision and what money he's pocketing."Mini-date? Who said this was a 'mini' date? This is our first is it not? I wanted only the best for the first one and better for the next and even better after that. I'm not a common scoundrel my dear." He respond
