The Boy With The Charm.

Chapter One: Hello?

As i stare in my full length body mirror, questioning my life choices, i let out a sigh.

"Im a bit nervous. What about you, Jay?" I turn around facing my best friend, Jay. He has pretty much been there for me since day one.

"Jay?.." I repeated, just to see him spread out on the couch sleeping. Oh, right. he doesn't have a class this early. Lucky him. I fixed my dreads and fixed my tie before grabbing my bag and heading towards the door. Here we go.. I can do this. I sighed and opened the door and headed to photography. Those two grace days weren't enough. I still didn't have enough time to get situated in the dorm. But i was abled to get my books for photography, sculpture, and fashion design. Goodness. Im glad sculpture isn't mandatory. I haven't even gotten into class and i already need a break.

As i enter the classroom, i can feel everyone thats already in the classroom necks turn towards me. I give a nervous smile and slowly walk to a random seat in the back. Why did i smile? That was embarrassing. What of they found me weird?.. Its whatever. I don't even know any of these people in this classroom.. Besides him.

Lucas..  oh man. He is just the cutest! Ive had some encounters with Lucas. They were pretty awkward. I always end up bumping into him. It's.. weird. He's your typical white college guy. Brown fluffy hair, dark mocha eyes, pale skin, and incredibly pink.. soft.. lips. What am i thinking!? This is not like me. I run my fingers through my dreads and sigh. I end up finding myself staring at Lucas the whole class and only taking notes of whats important.

⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️-⛄️

After class, I slowly packed all my things up. I didn't want to be the first to leave. I heard soft footsteps approaching me. They sounded familiar?.. I look up to see Lucas, there in front of me with a big smile spread across is face.

"Hey, uh.. Xavier right?" He said with a brief pause trying to remember my name.

"Hi.. yeahs thats my name! haha." I said with a nervous chuckle. Gross, that was not a good idea. He probably thinks I'm weird.

He gave a weird look and then asked: "Would you mind if i borrowed your notes? I couldn't really focus. Too many people trying to get to know me. You know?" No.. i don't know. People rarely talk to me. But whatever. "I don't mind." I said reluctantly. There wasn't really much notes since our instructor was only really talking about our upcoming project. Speaking of.. Why the hell are we having a project when we just started!? I grabbed my notepad and handed it to him, and as he grabbed it, his hands gently caressed mine. My body got tense. As he flipped through the pages he looked up at me with a concerning look as he looked at my face. "You alright there?" he asked curiously.

"Yeah. Of course.. i'm gonna need those notes back. Uh, can you return them to dorm 714 on story 2?.." I asked looking down at the notepad, refraining from making eye contact with him. I started to fidget a bit. This was our longest conversation ever.

"Yeah sure. I'll return it by tonight. Thanks."
he gave a warm smile and patted me on the shoulder. As he walked away i stood there in silence contemplating my life. Did he just.. touch my should- wait what.. Xavier get your shit together. You cannot be actin' like this! I sigh and grab my bag to leave.

👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀-👀

It was 9:36pm. It was raining and i was trying to relax by listening to soft music and reading a book. There was a sudden knock on the door. It wasn't Jay.. Jay had just left for a jog. Unless he forgot something. There was another knock. It kind of startled me.

"Who is it?..." Silence.
"Hello?"...
