DANNYS POV

"Ugh, why won't she answer?" I mumble under my breath after calling a second time.

"Who's not answering?" Paul walks into my room and tosses me a RedBull.

"Macie."

"Maybe she's cheating on you."

"That's not funny."

"I'm just kidding man. Macie would never do that, don't worry." He laughs. I try to force myself to join in but I can't.

What if she is? No. I know Macie, and I know she wouldn't do that, but I can't help the thought. Maybe she found a nice guy at NYU and forgot all about me. Fuck it, I'm texting her.

Hey, what's up? I miss u

"There you guys are." Teala smiles and joins us sitting on my bed. "Whatcha doing."

"Trying to get ahold of Macie." I toss my phone behind me and lean my elbows forward onto my knees.

"I texted her earlier today. She said she really likes NYU."

"That's good. Uh, hey, do you know if she's made any new friends? Of the male gender particularly...?"

"Stop worrying Danny, I'm sure she'll call you back later. She's probably just busy right now."

"Yeah, I guess."

"Now c'mon, let's go outside and enjoy this beautiful day!" Teala grabs both our hands and drags us out of my room.

MACIES POV

"Yeah... He was a little... Enthusiastic let's call it." I giggle as we discuss one of the campus professors.

"He's fucking crazy."

"He's just passionate about his job."

"Macie, passion and insanity are two very different things." We both laugh and cross the street when the walking signal flashes. There's a few moments of silence in which I take the opportunity to put my words together.

"So, are you, you know... Looking for a relationship at all?" I try to ask casually and tuck my hair behind my ear.

"I don't know. I don't thing I've found the right person just yet."

"What do you mean the 'right person'?"

"Like, I haven't found someone who quite suits my fancy." He awkwardly chuckles and sticks his hands in his pockets.

"Well there's a lot of cute girls on campus...?" My voice goes high at the end, making it sound like a question.

"Uh, yeah."

"...There's also a lot of cute... Boys..."

"Ohh, I see what you're tryna do here." Alex laughs again and flips his hair. "You think I'm gay."
