I was about two hours into my paper for class and I barely had anything typed down. I usually wasn't distracted easily but I couldn't go 10 minutes without scrolling on my phone. I stretch and check the time in the corner of the screen.

10:21pm

I almost texted Deja before I remembered she was out, that was when I realized I should probably make some more friends on campus. Of course I love Deja, but seeing that her date goes well she'll be pretty occupied going forward. I thought about Jackson, I guess I could consider him a friend...but we barely spoke and I barely saw him. Besides, I had no way of contacting him, yes he does live down the hallway but it wasn't like me to just march up to someones door and strike up conversation-

*knock knock*

Being occupied with my own thoughts the sound from the door startled me I swore I could feel my heart drop. I get up from my desk and go to answer the door, it was pretty early for Deja to be back. But it was possible she locked herself out, I open the door. 

Speaking.Of.The.Devil.

Not Deja. Once again I find myself face to face with Jackson, my friend..neighbor..He flashed me a small smile and stuffed his hands in his sweatshirt pockets and peeked around the room. "All alone?" "No, I got my friend 'essay' to keep me company." He chuckled "She sounds like a drag" "A little bit of a bitch." He looked down the hallway and looked back at me. There was that feeling. "Um..you wanna take a ride with me? get some food?" I looked at him for a second, debating what I was going to say. "I don't know-""My treat?" He interjected. 

Then I was in his car.

Why the hell did I get in his car.
