I got myself ready for my day filled with classes, as per usual.  I couldn't help but wonder what that note meant. Anticipation. What should I be anticipating for? Is this mystery person finally going to reveal himself? It could even be a her, for all I know.

It took me thirty minutes to get ready. I checked my backpack to check if I had all the materials I needed for the day, such as my books, small planner notebook, pencils, and my trusty laptop.  When I was sure I had everything I needed, I finally walked out the door.

Today I had another biology class to attend to. I fast walked to my class which was in another building. Thank God I still had forty minutes to spare until my class was set to begin.

Around ten minutes into my walk, I heard my phone ding, signaling that a text had come in. I took my phone out of my pocket and saw that Harry had texted me.

HAROLD: Ello. Are you on your way to class right now?

LILY: Yeah. I'm near the Starbucks right now.

HAROLD: Perfect. I'm in there right now. Wait for me.

LILY: All right. 😊

In a couple minutes,  Harry appeared, bearing steaming two cups of what I assumed was coffee.

       "Here you go. I bought you a grande mocha frappe.  Just how you like it." He smiled widely.

I took the drink from him and flashed him a grateful smile.

        "Thank you so much. You didn't have to."

       "I wanted to. It's my pleasure. " he smiled once more.

I wondered to myself if he was the mystery person sending me flowers. But I soon disregarded the thoughts as I remembered the other day when he asked me all sorts of questions. He seemed like he had no clue.

The next ten or so minutes of our walk flew by as we talked and laughed. He was telling me all sorts of cheesy jokes, which, some of them were so dumb that I couldn't help but laugh at him.

We made our way into the class with ten minutes to spare. Harry plopped down on the seat next to me in the front. Then he took out all the materials he needed, and I did as well.

Soon, the rest of the class filed in one by one. Quiet chatter ran throughout the whole room. Once the professor walked in, the talking stopped at once. All the attention in the room was focused on the bald headed man that stood before us.

The class, well more like lecture dragged on for two hours or so. I tried my best to pay attention, but how could I when a certain green eyed man kept tapping my desk, and asking for my attention.

After he tapped my desk with his pen for what felt like the twentieth time, I finally gazed over to his grinning face.

"What is it?" I asked him.

"Oh. Hi." He said, grinning even wider.

I rolled my eyes at him, which caused him to giggle like a little school boy; with a matching toothy grin.

Finally, the class ended and it was already eleven am. I had two more classes to attend, then I could finally go back to my dorm.

I had twenty minutes until my next class which was just across from my previous class, so I decided to grab some food really quick. To my surprise, Harry appeared out of the café in front of me, holding two delicious looking crêpes; which was my favourite food to eat.

He approached me with the food and a small smile on his face.

"Want some, love?" he asked with a cheeky grin, knowing full well that I was hungry– scratch that– starving.

I eagerly took one from his grip, much like a five year old child. It was honestly heaven right in front of my eyes. I found out that it was strawberry, Nutella, and banana. My favourite kind. Harry knew me so well. We took a seat on one of the cafe tables outside and ate, made jokes, and talked.

I found myself really enjoying spending time with Harry.
