I finish work at 6 and head back to campus, a sandwich from the coffee shop in my hand. I need to get ready for this party so don't want to bother with the canteen. I am lost in thought, thinking about cute guy. He's so shy but his smile is divine. At least he spoke a little more today. Some sort of progress. I am so lost in my thoughts I'm not really paying attention to where I'm going and walk straight into Mike.
"Hello there" he says in that happy way of his.
"Hello to you too" I say back, grinning.
"You're still coming to our party right?"
"Of course. I'm just going to get a quick shower and change my clothes and I'll be there."
"Good" he says, smiling.
I shake my head, laughing, and wander into the building. As I reach the second floor, where my room is, cute guy walks past me. I hope he's going to Mike's party. I say hi and smile before heading for my room. I put my bag down and notice a note on the table.

Something in the fridge for you.

I open the door and see a plate with a slice of cheesecake on. The same cheesecake cute guy was eating earlier. How strange. I take it out and use the plastic fork to eat it up, grinning to myself like a naughty schoolgirl. It's soon gone so I throw the paper plate and fork away and go for a shower. That doesn't take me long so I dash to my room in just a towel, having heard no movement in the lounge. I shut the bedroom door and open the wardrobe to see what to wear. A halter neck top I bought the other day catches my eye. It's white with beads all over the front. That with a pair of skinny jeans. I smile, hoping it'll look good enough to catch the eye of cute guy, if he's there. I dress and put on a bit of makeup and satisfied with the look, slip on a pair of ballet flats and grab my keys.
I bump into cute guy at the bottom of the stairs and tell him I'm going to a party on the next floor.
"Mike's place?" he asks. I nod and he smiles as he walks next to me. He opens the door for me and we walk in to see about 20 people there. Mike comes over with 2 cups full of something. I sniff and decide to just drink it down. Cute guy does the same. Music is playing and Mike introduces us to Jaime, his roommate. Cute guy seems to already know him but it's the first time I've seen him. He's cute too but again, not cute guy cute. I really must find out his name. I can't say exactly say "hey cute guy" when I pass him in the corridors can I?
