Chapter Five: Nina's First Day

Chapter 5

Nina's P.O.V

I walked in class and took my seat. My first class was Music. I wonder how things are going to go. I mean I like it here I really do it is just I feel like I haven't found my place. I know I haven't been here long but I want to find friends and my roommate is not one of them. She is just not one of the people I want to hang out with. I want someone artistic like me and I feel like I can find someone like that in this class. My thoughts were interrupted by the teacher calling roll. 

I listened for my name. " Delany Lingo, Trey Lloyd, Zayn Malik,..." Wait did I just hear him right? Did he say Zayn Malik? Like the guy who sat beside me on the plane? I wonder if that is him. What if it is? Wow. I was so caught up in my thoughts about Zayn that I didn't hear my name called. "Nina Piper...Nina Piper?" 

I raised my hand in the air and answered, "Present." 

I listened to my teacher during class but my mind kept going back to the fact that Zayn was in my class. I tried to focus but I just couldn't do it. Maybe I could get to know him. What am I thinking? I don't even know him and I falling for him. I can't believe myself. 

We received our first assignment. It was a group assignment. I kept my fingers crossed hoping I would be in Zayn's group. It didn't work. I was placed in a group with two girls. Their names were Camila and Lizzy. I think I might have some new friends. The bell rang and I met with group and decided to meet at Camila's dorm to practice. 

I made my way to my next class, drama. I took a seat a watched as people entered the class. I noticed Zayn was in my class. Maybe he would sit next to me! Wait. Did I just say that. I don't like Zayn. Do I? I mean he is cute but I don't know him at all. My internal fight was interrupted by someone. 

"Can I sit here?" I looked up to see who it was. It was Zayn! 

I couldn't deny him a seat could I? "Yeah no one else is sitting there so...yeah" 

Class went like this. We took a quiz to see what we knew, then the teacher talked about herself, then we received an assignment. It was a partner assignment. We didn't get to pick a partner, instead we had to partner with the person sitting beside us. That means my work buddy is Zayn! The assignment was to do a scene from a play. You could pick whatever scene from whatever play you would like. I can do this. 

So I talked to Zayn about when we should meet and make decisions and he said he had something to do today and so did I. Then we decided on tomorrow after lunch to meet at his dorm. I have to admit I was super excited! 

I made my way to my next class. This time I had math. I like simple math. I mean you have to know simple math to do music. This junk is crazy though. The say like multiply this and divide that. It just doesn't process in my brain correctly. Ugh! Math.

I sat there trying to figure all this stupid stuff out. It just frustrates me. I heard a bell and my brain relaxed knowing math was over. 

I was the first out the door. My classes for today were over and I went back to my dorm to eat something before my meeting with Camila and Lizzy. I was starving, so I stuffed my mouth and then left to try and find Camila's dorm. I walked for an hour before I found her dorm. I knocked and waited a second or two before she came to the door with a smile. 

"Oh, hey Nina!" she said gesturing for me to come.

I was excited I mean it is my first university assignment! "Hey! Are you ready to work?" 

"Somebody's excited." She laughed. "So how was your first day?" 

"Yeah, it was good I think it went well." I answered. "How 'bout you?" 

"It was great! I can't wait for my classes tomorrow!" Her facial expression was so uplifting as she spoke. "So what do you play?" 

That was the easiest question in the world,"Oh, I play guitar but I sing a little too. What do you play?"

Her face lit up with pride, "I sing, that is all I do. How long have you been interested in music?" 

"I have been singing since I was little, but I started playing guitar when I thirteen. How long have you been singing?" I asked. 

She smiled and spoke up, "I have been singing since I was a baby, my mom says I sang 'ah' before I spoke my first word." She giggled at the end, I guess she thought it was funny. "Hey! You should come with me to lunch tomorrow." 

I thought about what I was doing tomorrow and the only thing I was doing was meeting Zayn, but that is after lunch. "I guess we can meet up and go to the cafe right off campus." 

Her face lit up, "Great! We can meet after our last class at the courtyard?" 

"Yeah that will work" I answered. I was about to speak when we heard a knock at the door. 

"Oh! That must be Lizzy." She said rushing to the door. 

"Hey guys, sorry I am late. I couldn't find your dorm." She said.

We told her it was fine because we weren't even keeping track of time anyway. We invited her to lunch tomorrow but she had plans so it would just be Camila and I. Lizzy is a singer as well so we decided we would do a song with no instruments but our voices. We picked "Your Song" the Ellie Goulding version. We practiced and I think it is going to go amazing. Our voices worked so well together. I am actually excited to perform next week. I can't wait!
