Lost in His Touch

CH4

    Monday morning came. We ended up coming back to the dorms yesterday. Our dorm is Co, so my sister, Jason, Khalid, and I shared a dorm. Khalid is my sister's best friend. We met him in 6th grade. Naturally, he became one of us. We decided to all room together. We didn't want to deal with random people we didn't trust.

    I heard a knock at my door. I chose to ignore it. Was the first day really that important? My room door cracked open. "Nicki" Jason softly called to me. I groaned pulling the blankets over my head. I didn't want to get up. It should be illegal to wake up this early. He walked over to my bed and pulled the sheets off me. "Nicki, get up before I tickle you." He threatened. I glared at him.

    "Fine," I mumbled. He sat on the bed, waiting for me to get up. I got up and got ready. We were out the door by 7. Our dance gym wasn't too far away. It was a 10-minute walk to get there. We are about to meet with all the other extracurricular teams to discuss new procedures going forward. The building we were in was our building. But it's big enough to hold all teams at once. We eventually found the dance room. Jason opened the door, holding it open for us. We walked in, and there were many people in there.

    A lot of the chatter slowed. "That's her. She was the one with Tyson!" Someone whispered. I immediately glanced in their direction. Two girls were staring at me, whispering. I made eye contact with one of them and held it. They looked away. I don't have time for gossip. I continued walking with my sisters to where the rest of the team was. I placed my bag down and threw myself on the couch. I blew out air as I laid my head back and closed my eyes. I felt the eyes on me. They felt unfamiliar. I felt a hand on my thigh. I tense before realizing the comforting touch of Jason. " You're breathing heavy." He says. I didn't realize it. I forced myself to ease my nerves. My breathing slowed as Jason rubbed my leg.

    My body stiffened again. I felt someone staring at me intensely. I immediately threw a nasty glare at them. I thought it was coming from. My breath was trapped in my throat as I locked eyes with Tyson. He showed no emotion, but his eyes said it all. He was upset. About what? I noticed he glanced between my face and the leg Jason was currently rubbing. I chuckled to myself. A small smirk played on my face. Jealousy?

    I held contact with Tyson before someone snapped in my face. I glanced at T. "What?" I asked. She slyly glanced at Tyson before looking back at me again. I rolled my eyes.

    Coach wants you." She points to the door leading to Coach Walles's office.
    "For?" I question.
    "To talk about today's schedule. I could tell her you're too interested in you boy-" She yowled as I punched her in her thigh. That's what she gets for being messy. I pulled myself off the couch. I pulled my hood over my head hoping to hide the blush that broke out across my face.

    After meeting with Coach, I walked over to where my team was. I back-briefed Jason on what Coach wanted going forward. I laid my head in his lap. I was tired as hell still.    Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep. I slept for an hour before Jason nudged me awake. I groaned. Why couldn't I sleep a little longer? "Nick, we have to get to class." Jason chuckled. I rolled my eyes.

    "Well, Class could have waited ten more minutes." T laughed as she handed me my book bag. We had four classes today. The first lecture was boring. I almost considered getting a new teacher, but I realized it'd be hard to move all of us. The second lecture was better. The teacher was more lively and outgoing. After our second class, T, Jason, and I headed to our room. Khalid was meeting with some friends from his high school, so he would not be joining us.

    We made it back to our suite to find boxes and bags outside our door. " I guess we got a new roommate". Jason said. I was hoping that would not happen. We had one of the suite rooms. It fits up to 6 people. Every room is connected by a common room and kitchen. There are bathrooms in each room plus one in the common area. We have a kitchen and a balcony. Since it was only four of us, I figured they'd move someone in with us.

    Jason opened the door for us. I stepped in first surveying the place. The door to the room by my door was open. I hope whoever it is can stay quiet. I noticed the door on the other side next to Khalid's room was open as well. I guess we have two new roommates. I made my way to my room. Whoever they were, I could meet them later. I have 2 hours before my next class to nap.

    I wake up with 30 minutes left until my next class. I can hear laughter coming from the common room followed by the smell of food. My stomach growls. I rolled out of bed and slid on my shoes. I cracked open the door to my room. I saw Jason on the couch facing me. He was talking to someone. I could not see their face since their back was to me. Jason smiled harder when he saw me peeking. "Hey, Nick! Come on out here." He motioned me over. I pulled the door back further exposing myself.

    " Hmm, I don't know. I could use another nap.". I say running a hand through my hair. Jason rolled his eyes at me.

    "She loves to nap. I don't know how she does it, but if there's one thing she will do, that's nap." Jason says to the guy he's talking to. The guy chuckles. It sounds familiar, but I can't quite place my tongue on it. I walk over to the couch, and as I walk past the guy, I stiffen a bit. No fucking way. Like really, no fucking way.

Here is another chapter my lovelies. I feel like my story is harder to push out there. Usually my other stories have gained more traction, I am considering publishing another book in another Genre, but I don't know at the moment. But we will keep pushing with this one.
