More Than Love

Chapter 2

It feels like my brain is bursting out of my skull as I am listening to professor Sing brabbling on about the importance of the law of freedom of speech. And while I usually am very interested in what my favourite teacher has to say, today I could not care less.

My thoughts go back to last night. The black-haired guy that literally made me scream my lungs out. He was so fucking hot, and the way he-

'Miss Miller, am I boring you?' Mister Sing pulls me out of my thoughts.

My head scoots up and I look at his questioning eyes. 'I am so sorry, you're not.' I apologise. 'I'm just a little tired.' A huge yawn escapes me and I hear a couple of chuckles around the class.

God seems to really have my back today because before Mister Sing can say another word, the buzzer goes off. I smile apologetically and make my way to the exit.

There are not a lot of people in my class that I like. Seems that most of the people who attend law school are either very annoying or super boring. My mood immediately cracks up when I see Mike standing in the doorway. You know the one who fucked my brains out last night.

He is actually twenty-eight and works already, so he must be here for me since he definitely does not go to school here.

'Hey Joy.' He greets me.

'Hi Mike.' I say as I try to dodge him as he attempts to hug me. A little a shame he backs away.

'Would you like to grab something to drink?' Wow, this happens every time. It's sad, really. How they think that they are so special after they fuck me for one night. Don't get me wrong, the sex was good. But I just don't believe in the whole attachment and relationship thing.

'Actually I would not.' I smile at him. 'And I would really appreciate it if you would not come to my school again. It was a fun night but it stops here.'

Before he can respond I have already walked passed him. And I don't look back. I never do.

I'm on my way home when I feel my phone buzzing in my pocket. I breath out a curse word as I take it out and look at the caller-ID, my face immediately clearing up as I do so.

'It's about time you reached out, stranger.' I say smiling after I answer the call

'Good to talk to you too princess.' The voice of my brother talks back to me. 'How was school?'

'Exhausting. I have not understood anything the professors said. I didn't get a lot of sleep.' I smirk, witch he obviously can not see.

'Disgusting, this thought will haunt me forever.' He says, but I can hear he has to laugh. 'Do you want to have dinner with me tonight? So we can catch up. I guess the shots made us a little unable of doing that yesterday.'

I reach my dorm and sigh as I see the sock on the doorknob. Really Sal? It is four in the afternoon. I make my way to the library as I reply to my brother. 'I would love to. Can we just do it at your place? I'm a little broke so a restaurant is not really in the budget. Wait, where do you live nowadays?'

'Well I actually moved in with Liam. For now, until I can find a job so I can get an apartment or something for myself.' Right, it must be hard to start your life back up after being away for six months. 'I don't know if he'll be home tonight, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you came over. I'll cook us something, like old days.'

The old days, it brings back a lot of memories. From the o so fun and cozy dinners with my brother, to the not so pretty moments that I've carefully hidden in the back of my brain.
