TRACIYON-
"I've only known the girl for like 2 weeks" I say in between reps "so you like her right?" " I don't know her" " but you want to tho" "you got a point" " how many classes you got with her" "2" "creative writing and what else?" " Marketing " "don't you have that in the morning?" "Yeah but.." " okay so you can talk to her about it tomorrow then" "see that's the thing she's usually late to that class and she sits dead in front ..I don't think she knows I'm in her class" " well let shorty know pull up on her" Reese says tapping me on the shoulder to switch places on the bench " so you saying I should ask her out?" "I'm saying you should reintroduce your self"

                         ~ the next morning ~

"Yeah traci, I'm on my way to the airport now" " alright I love you dad let me know when you land" I say as I back out of the driveway " I love you too son and still don't tell your mother" "I won't I swear" I say with a laugh knowing my mom's gonna trip when she sees him. As I get off the phone I noticed it's time for me to get to class ...

I make it to campus check up on my grades then I start heading to meet with my coach but before I cross the quad I see kae pull up in her all black 2020 Mercedes Benz "she's early today" I think to myself as she catches me staring at her..again  I smile at her then keep walking towards my coaches office... impressed with my performance  these last couple games he officially made me a starter on the team, I came from a different school playing a different position but it didn't take me long to move up in "rank" I thought to myself. Walking into class I give Professor Wilson my tardy note and scan the room for a seat Kae looked up at me shocked like she'd seen a ghost, "Damn, she fine & blind" I thought to myself as I continue to look but with only a few choices to pick from I settled on the seat in front of her but off to the side by the windows as professor Wilson got back to his lecture.
  After a 45 minute marketing lecture Professor Wilson gave us our assignment for the day and our instructions for our assignments due throughout the week I'm making my way back to my seat when me and kae happen to make eye contact "following me ?" I ask with a slight laugh "I could ask you the same"she says smiling and raising her eyebrows at me "right um no I realized you were in this class too the day we ran into each other" I said taking a light deep breath and brushing my hand over my waves " oh right and again sorry about that" "oh no your good" I say as I make it back to my seat the bell rings and everybody starts to gather their things to leave or head to their next classes.
   I get my backpack and my notebook and I head back toward Kae who was still seated writing in her notes "Hey I never got your name?" " you never asked for it" she says with a slight smile as she adjusts her glasses and I stopped in my tracks, I chuckle "in that case what's ya name" I say taking a seat beside her. "Kaelia, and yours?" She says looking up at me smiling  "Traci'yon but everybody calls me Traci" " who's everybody?" "not you apparently" I say raising my eyebrow and laughing "just kidding I'll call you Traci, everybody calls me kae" we look back and forth at each other
"does everybody make you nervous like this tho?" I say more to myself than out loud but she heard me. I noticed her fidgeting with her pen so I take the pen and caress her hand, she just stares at me like she can't breathe then she pulls away opens her laptop and starts research for one of our assignments I just sit back in the seat beside her for a second and think the way she fixed her glasses and got to work was so sexy I find myself staring at her and she catches me then starts side eyeing me "can I help you Traci?" she asks grinning at me I just look at her for a moment then I cock my head to the side "we're supposed to be going to our next classes-" I say with a seductive smirk. She closes her eyes slowly, lowers her head with a laugh and takes a deep breathe then begins to pack up her things. "Cmon I'll walk with you" I say as I pick up her books and her jacket so all she has to carry is her purse which is doubling as her laptop bag while we walk to her next class. " so how tall are you again?" She says eyeballing me from the side "6'3 ish maybe 6'5" I walk up close in front of her and stand over her " why do you ask?" "Your a giant compared to me" "your right what are you 5'2" " aht aht 5'6" " oh excuse me" "this is my class" Kae says as we come to a stop outside of her class she looks disappointed so I ask "what's wrong?" "Nothing" she says looking at everything else but me " tell me what's wrong" I say as I reach out and caress her arm and shoulder she looks at me and says "we're here" she pouts and points into her classroom. I stick my head in and look around its a few people standing up talking and a few people setting up their laptops and note taking supplies. I turn back to kae "yikes that looks boring" "it is" "well what are you doing after maybe we can get some food?". She looks up kinda quick then the light fades from her face "I can't but I'll call you" she says as she reaches for her books while handing me her phone, I type in my number then I give Kae a hug before we go our separate ways but the hug lasted a little longer than expected I looked down at kae as I let her go and smile as she pulls away slowly."Alright go to class" I say in a low tone caressing her hand again before backing away from the doorway and watching as she enters her classroom. I head towards the student center where my last class of the day is meeting in the auditorium for our professors weekly lecture, I made it right on time too cause once the door is closed there's no opening it till the end.
