Unmatched

Tuesday Night

(May

I did one last check in the mirror.

Ok. This should look good.

Tonight was meant for fun, maybe get drunk. Maybe not. But I would try.

I had gotten ready 30 minutes before we left which was odd of me.

Must be my nerves.

I looked down at my phone and noticed that an unsaved number had texted me,

"Hey Maya, its Kallias. Our professor paired us up to help you catch up before tomorrows class. Can you meet before class tomorrow?"

I rolled my eyes, and threw my phone on my bed. I didn't bother to read it again, I'd reply to him later when I'm back. Or never sounded pretty good too.

10:00 finally struck and I went down to meet with Caterine and her other group of friends. I reached for my room door and looked back one more time. My lamp was on and my bed looked sooo...the white duvet was ruffled up and my two pillows were propped up on the wall...It looked so comfy. Should I just stay home tonight?

I took a deep breath in. No. I already gave my word to Caterine and what else was I going to do than the same things I have?

I walked out, and didn't think twice about it because if I did, I know I would have convinced myself.

Caterine was around 3 other girls, all dressed in black leather jackets, and fall colored scarves with what looked like identical black Doc Martens.

"Hey Maya!"

Caterine was the one standing out, she wore a gray peacoat and underneath a bright blue turtleneck that reminded me of that material Skims uses.

"Hey" I smiled. Giving her the small hug she leaned in for.

"These are my friends, Tilly, Penelope, and Marisa!"

I looked over at them, and they smiled. Tilly was a dirty blonde, with brown eyes. Penelope and Marisa looked like twins with long black hair and the same almond brown eyes and thin lips.

I waved at them and showed a shy smile, "I'm Maya" I said.

Tilly looked me over and threw a small closed grin before looking over at Caterine, "You ready?!"
