A Long Distance Relationship

Chapter Six: Introduction Week

Still a Monday, after the assembly, all of the students went to the register classes after checking their names by the board. Now at the register class, the four friends, Britney, Melanie, Priscila, and Sam, noticed that they attend the same classes according to each other's courses. For Bryan, he went to a different class. So sitting together in the same row, Sam said, "There are so many students here, maturity 50-50. Girls and boys. That's good." "While you are thinking about that, I am more looking for a cute dude to 'talk' with, there is even one looking at my way. Hi!" The girls all turned and looked at the guy who is looking at Britney, and they all waved and smiled. Priscila said, "He is a cutie. I like him already. Sorry Brit but he is mine!" "Oh, you got yourself a challenger. Wait for me!" Rushing and racing herself towards the boy, me and Sam just laughed out. As we were still laughing, Melanie caught a glimpse of someone looking at her, so she looked and then nodded. This, someone, gave her a smile and a wink, which she quickly looked away and covered herself. When Sam was looking at Melanie's reactions, she said, "It looks like someone is making you smile a lot, huh? Turning herself to Sam, she said, "No just a new classmate, I guess. Very funny and weird. Oh, he is coming over here. What do I do?" "Well, continue smiling and laughing while he was afar."

Just then, the boy went over to sit next to Melanie, and he said, "Hi I am Timothy, known for Timmy or Tim. It's really up to you how you say it. What's your name, beautiful?" "I am Melanie, Timothy, nice to meet you. Let me guess, it's your first year in college?" "Yes, it's my first year, but I guess it's the same for everyone here at this class." "Huh! I can tell you do not have friends, right? "Yes, I do. Three of them, exactly. We are very close friends." "Good to know, Mel. Can I call you that? Yes, you may."

Just then, the bell rang, indicating to go to their first class, they stood up and headed out. Walking to their first period for the day, Bryan was alongside them. "Oh hi, Bryan, nice seeing you already. Knowing that this will be your only subject on seeing you, I still think of you." Melanie said that when she saw him beside her. Responding to her with a return hug, he said, "Nice to see you again, Mel. I made new people around the register class, so yea. It went well. Then I had some girls chatting talking about me, like whispering and giggling. Then I meet a player dude, he started giving me some advice and some small talks on how to talk to them, I told him that I was not interested. Do not look surprised, I did not come here to flirt and chat with any girl, I came here to study and play a game. My main focus was to enter a basketball or football team here and do well in my studies." Looking at him, Melanie said, "You have no girl interest, like what you want from a girl, is it friendship or more than that?" "Yeah, I want a girl to be a trustworthy, kind of girl like she will not kiss and tell, goofy, silly, smart, surprising, and a go-getter. Like she knows what she wants and makes the best out of it. Not just any girl to taste, show off, and then, the next thing, she dumps or leaves to go to another guy. Yea." "Are those kinds of girls like that in your class?" "Yes, they are some. Cannot run from that. They are pretty but their attitudes and style say a lot about themselves."

"Well, to be honest with you, according to your list, I want a guy like that, you know. However, the one problem is that he should be firm and serious about me in a way that he does not do the same to other girls, once the attention comes towards him. He should be glad, smiley, and a bit comfortable around me, then from there, we will go a long way."

~Bryan~
"Hey there, I am Bryan James Henderson. I am the second oldest brother, following with three siblings, which are two sisters and a small brother, Hannah, Mia, and Peter, and the other two siblings, which are a boy and a girl, Tabitha and Liam. Two weeks ago, I went to this college for an interview with the principal, and the following week, on a Saturday, I got my letter, and it said that I approved. In addition, that same day, I decided to go to the park with my boys, Patrick, Dominic, and James. As we were playing along, I caught sight of girls playing volleyball, by the open court, and then Patrick said, "Hey, you look distracted, Bryan. Liking what you see that side?" I smiled and said, "Kind of, not sure what I like." (Saying that was a lie, I did like what I saw but wasn't sure if I enjoyed watching the game or the girls) Patrick looked at me and said, "Okay why don't we invite them over for a match, I am pretty sure they would accept that, what you think guys?" With a nod, we all went to that court and Patrick was the one to say, "Hello girls, are you girls looking for a referee?" One of them said, "No, thank you. We can pretty much keep up with our scores." And then he asked again, saying, "Well how about a match against my boys, then?" As the girls were still playing when Patrick started talking to them, they eventually stopped the game and approached us. One of the girls said, "I am in! Are you in girls?" Turning heads and conforming, the rest of the girls said, "Okay let's go." And then, this sweet and beautiful girl said, "I am up for a basketball match and test my gain. I am Melanie." When she introduced herself, the rest of the girls did the same and the next, we all went to the basketball court and played the game.
