HOUSTON, TX

I had just gotten out of class when I recorded a message from Darron:

I want to see you, wya?

I felt myself blushing when his name slid across my screen. I wasn't one to catch feelings easily, but people weren't lying when they said those Alpha Phi Ro boys had extremely good charisma. He was so romantically and gentle with me, his laughter and personality always brightened my day. However, it was also something about that look he gave me.

Darron was extremely attractive, and there was never a doubt in my mind about it. From his sense of style to the way he carried himself, it was all so charming. Unlike any of the guys I had talked to before, Darron seemed the most genuine. He never made any sexual advances, nor did he try to push up on me. In the time that we had been speaking, he had taken me out three times and paid for all three times. He ensured my safety and even catered to my emotional needs. He reminded me a lot of Jungkook, taking care of me.

I was currently sitting outside on the benches, waiting for him to pull up. It was a Thursday, so he didn't have a class today, which meant he had to come to pick me up from campus, which he clearly didn't mind although he lived almost 20 minutes away in some off-campus apartments. I had only been to his apartment once, and that was because he left his wallet there, so he hit an entire U-turn with me in the vehicle and drove us to his place. It was extremely nice, and it was quite evident that he came from some good money.

As I waited, I gently tapped my fingers on the wooden table, scrolling on Instagram with my free hand. I found myself giggling here and there at a few reels, some of them genuinely being funny. However, I found myself smiling the hardest when I saw 'bestie :)' pop up on my screen:

Hey bighead
wyd?

I'm about to leave campus
wyd?

Nothing
Why are you leaving campus? Where are you going?

Uhhh I don't know
Darron's taking me out again

I saw his text bubble appearing and disappearing multiple times, indicating that he was contemplating what to say next after my response. I always forget that he's not the most fond of Darron, for reasons that even I have yet to discover.

Again???
Isn't that like the third time in the past week?

Yea? So?

He's aware y'all aren't like... together right?

Why does that matter?
