Two Plus One Lady

Chapter One: The Library

Chapter One: The Library

It's my first day as a freshman and I'm with the girls that were currently ogling some of the smart-looking boys inside the library. I don't really like hanging out with these girls but they keep on asking me to join them while we wait for the class to start. "Hey, Shelly. What do you think about those guys who's definitely checking you out?"

Oh please! I thought while rolling my eyes at her. I kept playing the zombie catchers on my phone and ignored them.

"Shelly! Oh gosh! Here they come." I heard one of the girls panicking. I saw two boys walking towards our table. I was about to take off when the guy started talking to me, "Can we join you?" I heard the girls giggling and offered them seats.

I couldn't help but to roll my eyes. "Are you okay? I don't think you like hanging out with these girls. It's written all over your face." He whispered through my ears. "Am I that obvious?" he nodded his head.

"I'm Calix." He offered his hand and I looked at the other guy. "I'm Ken."

"And I'm Shelly." We shook each other's hand and introduced ourselves to one another. The girls wanted to spend more time with these two guys but they really have the guts to refuse and take me with them. "Where do you plan to take me?"

"Can we skip the introduction of our first day and have some fun instead?" Ken asked. We all laughed together and decided to eat lunch outside the university.

While having our lunch we talked about a lot of things. It's like getting know each other. I liked hanging out with these two idiots who turned down a lot of girls just to save me from being miserable.

"You guys really saved me back there. I don't really want to be friends with them. They were like those mean girls at school who loves making fun of others and hitting up with a bunch of idiots!"

Ken who's basically not as friendly as Calix seems to be agreeing with me because he's actually nodding his head and laughing with us. "You can hang out with us any time since we are in the same boat." I smiled at them. They are not as bad as I think. Maybe this school year will not stress me that much if I keep on hanging out with these two. I like how we vibe and its easy for me to feel comfortable around them.

The class went on and we skipped some parts of it because we were so bored introducing ourselves over and over. "Hey Shelly! We were looking for you everywhere. I didn't know that you are so close with these guys." I think she's one of the girls. Her name's Alesha and I consider her as the leader of the mean girls.

"We are planning to have some drinks at the bar. Would you like to come with us? You can bring your handsome friends." I didn't know how should I respond. I don't own these guys. How would I know if they like to join or not?

"We would like to join you!" Calix, as expected agreed. I saw Ken punch his friend slightly on his back. Maybe he didn't like the idea. I don't really mind because I don't drink that much and this is a good start in making friends with my classmates.

After class, we all went to this famous bar where all students are surprisingly allowed. I didn't know how these girls managed to bring some party clothes while I'm still wearing a black V-neck shirt and jeans.

"Hey. Both of you. Drink responsibly, okay? I won't be your nanny if either one of you got drunk." It's really not my thing to take care drunk friends.

"Yes, boss!" Calix said. After a few bottles of beer, I left the table and went to the parking lot to get some fresh air without the smoke and loud music.
