Malia's POV

Alarm clock went off

Ughh time to get up already? I feel like i slept just an hour ago. I turned off the alarm clock and got up my bed, what day was it again? ahh, Saturday, i have to go home to my parents and siblings. I went outside my room and into the kitchen to make some breakfast, cereal and hot chocolate should fill me up. When i finished making breakfast i placed my food down on my counter and sat on a chair. I opened my phone to check my messages while i ate, everything was quiet and peaceful. I was scrolling through my socials when suddenly my friend called. "What is it Claire? Why are you calling at 7 in the morning on a WEEKEND?" i said to Claire on the phone "Malia girl you WON'T believe what i just found out" I was confused as to what she meant "Only one way to find out, what is it?" "Girl Bentley and Christina just broke up!!" I was so shocked i nearly spat out my cereal "FOR REAL? I swear if you're playing with me right now i'll come over and kill you Claire. How did you know?" "Malia i swear i'm not lying. Check Christina and Bentley's socials, they deleted all their posts together!!" Seriously!? I can't believe this is happening, i know i shouldn't be happy that a couple just broke up but i can't help myself!! Bentley is finally single again! I typed in Bentley's user in instagram and there it is. My best friend was telling the truth! I could literally jump from excitement! I was overjoyed that i forgot i had to get ready to go back home.

I finished up my food and washed the dishes then headed to the shower to get cleaned up. Once done i threw on some sweatpants and whatever t-shirt i had on my chair. Honestly at this point i was already in a rush, i didn't even get to fix my hair and all i was able to do was put on my skincare and some lipgloss. My mom kept on calling and messaging me asking for my location i was getting ANNOYED. But then again i love my mom so i can't even get angry at her. I took my bag and made sure everything else was kept and tidy, once i double checked my dorm room i went out and locked my door. I'm gonna be honest year, i LOVE my mom for getting me a solo dorm room, but sometimes it does get lonely. Anyways i made my way down to the main building and while i was walking i was on my phone chatting none other than my MOTHER. She kept on asking and asking what time i was gonna arrive or where i am to the point that i didn't even notice someone was in front of me. I accidentally bumped into him and his coffee fell to the ground and left a huge stain on his shirt.

"OH MY GOD! I'm so sorry! i really didn't mean to bump into you!" I said while quickly taking out some tissues from my bag to wipe his shirt. I didn't even get the chance to look at the person who was in front of me. Honestly, all this guy did was stand up and watch me try to wipe the stain off his shirt. "I don't think that stain is going anywhere doll" I stopped and realized that he was right, i put the tissues in mu pocket and looked up at him, woah. I was NOT expecting him to look this good. This man had ash blonde hair that reached down to the back of his neck, his hair was a bit messy but it still looked real good. His nose was literally perfect, his eyes were beautiful it was dark blue and his eyelashes were pretty long. His lips looked good and he had tan skin. Damn, not gonna lie i'm thankful for bumping into this man. My thoughts were cut off but the sudden voice from the person standing in front of me "I love Hockey Players, nice shirt you got there" I was SHOCKED, i felt as if my cheeks were getting redder and redder! Out of all the shirts i could have picked up it just HAD to be this shirt that Claire gave me on my birthday for fun. Here i thought i just chose a plain white t-shirt, how could i be so blind not to notice this!? "Erm uh..Thanks, i guess? I'm sorry my friend gave me this and i didn't have enough time to dress up properly, i was in a rush i thought it was a plain tee.." I couldn't look at this man in the eyes i was way too embarrassed. "I can tell" He looked me up and down as he said that and all i wanted to do was run away and never come back. Suddenly he started to laugh, i didn't know a laugh could be attractive..wait, what the hell am i thinking? I don't even know this guy! "I better get going.." I was about to walk away when he suddenly grabbed my arm "I didn't get your name" "Oh right, it's Malia" i replied looking back at him "Nice name, i'm Alexander" That name rings a bell..wait. Was he THE Alexander Dawson? Now that i look at him...he does kinda match Claire's description of the former team captain of The Hawks..the hockey team that nearly beat ours last game. "Alexander Dawson?" I asked still slightly confused "Bingo, thought you wouldn't recognize me" I laughed a bit "Don't be so full of yourself now Alexander, i only know you because of my best friend" He smirked at me "Thought you loved hockey players yeah? How come you don't know who i am?" Ugh this guy, i rolled my eyes at him "My friend only gave me this shirt because i have a thing for our team captain, other than that i don't know shit about hockey" I replied to him pulling my arm back from his grip "Now excuse me, i have somewhere else i have to be" I turned my back at him and started to walk away, seriously, this day started off just fine and now i feel so annoyed.
