Liberty dropped me off at campus, still hangover from last night's party. She had been out the entire weekend but thankfully, didn't let me go because apparently, the parties were too obscene for me. I still laugh when i remember this part. I mean, i get it but how can a 20 year old have things that are too obscene for her? My life was such a bore but at least I didn't have a pounding headache at 8am in the morning.

I stood face to face with the main building again, letting the students trickle past me gradually. I wanted to remember this moment forever; this calm feeling, the beaconing hope for a new beginning and better life experience- maybe even a little romance. Who knows what Hurricane University has to offer? Well, there was only one way to find out...

Pulling my phone from my back pocket and opening the HU-app, i typed in my classroom details. My phone chimed as a blue line appeared on the screen with the route i was to take. I crossed my fingers praying that I wouldn't get lost before stepping into the building.

My heart was pounding, not with excitement though. The halls were filled with students who were in a scuffle to get to their respective classrooms.

The thought of having to squeeze through this mob made my stomach churn because one: back in high school in this same scenario, my peers would intentionally push me back and forth in order to block me from reaching where i was going- there's a time i ended up in the wrong classroom after the bell rung, i almost got detention for supposedly dodging my other class and playing pranks on teachers. Sigh.

Two: The idea of being seen or noticed didn't sit well with me because it meant that people would be all up in my business, asking me why i look like this or if my condition was contagious.

My anxiety was about to kick in when I was suddenly jerked into motion by the people who were passing behind me. I took that as my cue to walk, my eyes never leaving my phone as I followed the directions of the blue line.

"21R-B." I said to myself, triple checking the app to make sure I was really really really in the right place.

The room wasn't full yet so i could choose an isolated area to sit in and prayed no one decided to sit next to me. I adjusted my hair after sitting down, making sure my curls weren't flying out of place on my head. I then pulled my laptop, notepad and pencils out ready to begin my first lecture in college!!

Class was settled now and ready to begin. Everyone was spread out into manifold groups throughout the room. I'm guessing according to social relationships perhaps from high school. I didn't mind that, i actually wished I wouldn't meet anyone from Westlake High but the odds of that was very low, i still prayed however.

Something squeezed against my heart when a group of girls entered the room while giggling. They were pretty and all the boys gawked because they obviously found them attractive. I stared at them, trying to make sure that i knew none of them and sighed after confirming i was safe.

I was so sick and tired of these girl cocoons, always going everywhere together making other peoples lives miserable. My heart was still in complaint when everybody gasped in awe.

My. Jaw. Dropped.

This man, who seemed like he was going to be the Professor we were waiting for walked in, heading for the large podium at the front and gently placing his briefcase on the desk beside it. He quietly propped his hands on the table leaning his weight forward as he looked up at us.

"Oh my God, is that him?!" I heard someone ask

"He's even hotter in person!" Another girl exclaimed, holding her chest excitedly.

"I can't believe he's going to be our professor!!"

The murmurs got loud pervading the room to create a low hum of noise. This man quietly scanned the room as if to study everyone. His eyes landed in my direction and i squirmed in my seat quickly averting his strong gaze.
