When our professor dismissed us, I began collecting my things quickly and gathering my bag and everything so that I could escape this room among the firsts. I took everything -my bag, my coat and my folder with my arms and headed towards the door. When I was walking down the hallway I heard someone shouting 

"Hey locker girl!" 

It was Matt, I was sure. He was trailing behind me and finally caught up to me. He softly took me by the elbow and I stopped walking. 

"Hey, where you going? I was calling you, didn't you hear me?" 

I gathered the courage to look at him. "Oh I heard you alright. And I'm sure the entire building heard you as well." I huffed. Seriously, a hot boy calling after me? Everyone was looking at me! And I hated being the center of attention if it wasn't obvious. 

Wait. 

Hot boy? Seriously? 

Oh my God, I was losing it. Like, going nuts. I didn't think of anyone as hot. My mind wasn't in that. I wasn't interested. Well, more like anyone wasn't interested in me. Anyways, no. 

I kept on walking with him walking right beside me. 

"So, where are you going? What class do you have?" 

I looked at him as if he had grown another head. What did he care? I raised an eyebrow and slowly said 

"I have a free period. Why?" 

"Great! What a coincidence! I have have a free period too" he smiled.  

So what we both had free periods, I wasn't going to spend it with him, for sure. 

"Okay" I shrugged and kept making my way towards the cafeteria. I needed a hot coffee. 

Matt kept walking right beside me. It seemed like I wasn't going to get rid of him anytime soon. Great. 

"Where are you going?" he asked once again. This boy didn't know how to shut up. 

"You ask too many questions" I snapped. 

"Are you gonna answer any of them?" 

See? Again. 

"You never told me your name, locker girl." 

"Nora" I simply answered. Couldn't he tell that he made me nervous and I was uncomfortable and didn't want him to talk to me? Really, I wasn't used to these situations and I didn't know how ot handle myself.

I made my way through the people who were at the door of the cafeteria -which were a lot- and went to the the bar. I ordered a large macchiato coffee with cream and waited for the barista to prepare it. I was looking at my watch to see that I only had fifty minutes because the new guy had consumed ten minutes of my time. I checked my phone to see that I had several texts -well, only two, but still. 

Aubrey boo, 9:43 

Hey nora, what u up 2? 

Storia (Stella, Mia, Nora), 10:05 

Hey Nora, where did you go? We thought you'd wanna come with us to eat or something, we're at the front door. 

After I had read them I shoved my phone into my pocket and looked back up to see the bartender placing my coffee in front of me. 

"Thank you" I said smiling. The Matt was next to me and said to the bartender that he wanted whatever I was having. "Why don't you stop following me? I know that you're new and all but I don't socialize. Hanging out with me is like a social suicide."
