It was the first day of the semester,
and the halls were filled with diverse noises and excitement .
Grace, Sierra, and Josh stood just inside the entrance,
looking around with wide eyes as students bustled past them in every direction.

"Do you know where we're supposed to go?"
Josh asked,
scratching his head as he glanced at the map in his hand.

"Absolutely no idea,"
Grace replied, her voice a mix of amusement and panic.
"This place is a maze though !"

Sierra peered down one of the long corridors, shrugging.
"I think we're supposed to find Room 205? Or was it 502? Oh i think it's 502.."

"Great. We'll be wandering these halls until graduation,"
Josh sighed dramatically.

"Oh no don't say that."
Said Sierra with a panicking frustrated face.

Just then, Grace's attention was caught by a tall, handsome guy with blonde hair standing by a locker.
He seemed to be surrounded by an aura of confidence,
chatting animatedly with his friends.

Grace nudged Sierra whom was focused with processing the gigantic map, whispering,
"Hey, check out the guy by the locker."

Sierra turned her head half focused,
Finding it hard spotting the guy.
"What? "

Josh leaned in, grinning.
"so you just got a uni crush "

Grace rolled her eyes, her cheeks turning a faint pink.
"Easy peasy duh. But hey that's not a crush though. "

Sierra laughed.
"Sure, sure. We believe you."

"Noon!"
Grace protested, flustered.
"I just said so because... well, he stands out, that's all."

Josh raised an eyebrow, smirking.
"Yeah, stands out like a sore thumb. Or a statue of Adonis."

Grace giggled , crossing her arms.
"Adonis ?... Guys just find our class before we get even more lost."

They continued down the hallway,
still unsure of where they were going, when a voice called out to them.

"Grace Sinclair, Sierra Levine, and Josh Cillian?" the voice echoed down the hall.

The trio turned to see a teacher with curly hair and a kind smile approaching them. She carried an air of authority that was both comforting and slightly intimidating.

"ehm----my apologies but it's Cullen." Grace answered,
Confusion evident in her voice.

" Oh sorry sweetie, Welcome to the Gallifrey University"
the teacher said warmly.
"I'm Mrs. Brown , and I'll be helping you find your way. You're in Room 205, just down this way."

Sierra felts a pang of stupidity as she thought.
"oh so it's 205..."

Josh replied smiling gratefully.
"Thank you! We were just about to start leaving breadcrumbs to find our way back."

Mrs. Brown chuckled.
"Follow me. I'll make sure you don't get lost."

As they followed Her , Grace couldn't help but glance back one more time. The blonde guy caught her eye,
offering a charming smile before turning back to his friends.
She quickly looked away, her heart skipping a beat.
