“Ok class, that’s it for today! Please do not forget your essay is due tomorrow. If any of you have any questions, come and ask me now.” My stumpy male lecturer concluded the lesson for the day.
Everyone hurriedly packed up their belongings, leaving the lecture theatre in a flash. I shut off my laptop and proceeded placing my books in my bag, taking my own sweet time. My next lesson was in an hour so there wasn’t a need for me to rush out.
“Hey.” I stopped what I was doing and looked up to acknowledge the guy who just greeted me.
And I knew who he was.
I’ve noticed him around campus before. He was technically my eye candy in school. Brown hair and blue eyes, who wouldn’t be attracted to that? But I never thought much about it. He seemed pretty popular among the ladies and I’m just this average looking American girl.
“Hi. Seth right?”
“Yeah. Juliet?” I nodded excitedly, smiling back at him. He knows my name!
“So… what’s up?” I asked, coolly. He seemed a little on edge and was fidgety, like he was anxious about something.
“Erm, I was just wondering, do you want to go out some time?”
“Like to study?”
“No, like on a date.”
“Oh. I-“
“If you don’t want to, it’s ok.” He cut me off before I could even continue. I chuckled at his nervousness and shook my head.
“No no, I would love to, Seth. Here’s my number.” I wrote it down on a stick-on note and passed it to him.
“Thanks. I’ll text you!” He said, winking at me before heading out.

Right as I stepped into the house, I automatically threw myself on the couch. I lay down for a few minutes before forcing myself to sit back up.
“Stupid fucking essay.” I groaned, taking my books and laptop out from my bag. I got home late from school and though I was exhausted, I couldn’t rest just yet. Just so you know, tired Juliet is a pissy Juliet.
As usual, Zayn wasn’t home tonight. After that incident a week ago, things never really changed much around here. Not that I’m complaining. He does acknowledge my presence now and I did make him laugh at a sarcastic joke once but that’s just it. Nothing more, nothing less.
I was about done with my ‘interesting’ thesis when I heard my phone chimed.
Unknown Number: Hi Juliet! It’s Seth. Xx
I smiled down to my phone and began typing my reply.
Me: Hey! What you up to?
Seth: Nothing much. About to finish up this bloody essay.
Me: Haha me too! I’ve been typing so much that my fingers hurt.
Seth: Aww wish I was there so I could kiss away the pain. Xx
I giggled. What a flirt!
Me: Wish you were here too. ;)
Seth: So about that date… Would this Saturday be possible for you?
Me: Erm, I need to check my schedule first…
Seth: Come on, I know you’re free.
