  Nicholas(that was his name) sat in the midle of me and some other clasmates. He introduced himself and kindly asked for their social media. I introduced myself too. We were all new here after all. "Good morning! My name is Alexander. I'm glad to meet you."
   Nicholas studied me for a secong then turned to look at the teacher, who was just entering the clasroom. I was confused by that unexpected look, but in the end i chose to ignore it.
  I was trying really Hard to concetrate, but the beuty next to me wouldn't let me. I took glimpses of him, of how he sat in his chair, how he stroked a piece of hair that had fell to his face, how his lips were slightly open. I felt weird. Something in my stomach was moving. But i ignore that too. I was accustomed to this kind of feeling. At the same time i was accustomed to the reactions around me. I didn't want to cause any misunderstanding. Nicholas might have noticed a change in my mood. He gently pat my back and gave me a thumbs up.
   When the class was over Nicholas brought up the idea of going out for dinner. We all agreed. We were really hungry after four hours of lecture. We went to a near by restaurant. Nicholas and i sat next to each other okay. In fact he was the one that sat next to me. "I must've made quite the impression" i thought. He seemed to be clinginh in me and i didn't want to get the wrong idea. So i didn't speak about it. Even after dinner. He offerd me to take me home, but i declined. I wanyed some peace in order to think.
   The next day we had late in the afternoon classes. As i entered the amphitheater he was there, sitting next to a girl. They seemed to have a flirty conversation and that made me angry. Why was i angry? I took the chair two rows down. I didn't want to interupt them. I wasn't so selfish.       
   He saw me. We locked eyes. Oh, how beutifull his eyes were. That thought startled me and i looked away. I heard foosteps approaching me and there he was. Observing me, like he was eyeing his most favourite dish. That look he gave me made me flushed. I felt self-counsious. I really wanted to take matters in my own hands. But no. I had to stop it. I couldn't do anything.
"What's the matter?"
"you ask me What's the matter, when you're stanting there eating me with those eyes?" i thought, but wouldn't dare say.
"nothing. I just... Who

was that girl? Is she a friend of yours?" Oh, God! What have i done?
"No. She just asked me about yestardays lecture.
Why? Do you like her?"
"what? No! I was just asking. You seem to make friends easily. So i assumed it was like that."
"You guessed wrong"
   For the rest of the day he didn't Even once looked at me. I was sad about that. But maybe it was for the better. I layed in my bed that night, not able to sleep, makinh fake senarios about me and Nicholas. How great would it be if i was able to see him in my dreams too. To lock eyes with him, to touch his hand, his lips, his body.
