Ravyn

Monday morning lasted a lifetime as I served coffee after coffee, waiting for my shift to be over so that I could clock out and head to my afternoon classes.

I watched the clock waiting for the clock to strike 12.

Andrew snapped in my face, pulling me out of a daze.

"Ravyn... Earth to Ravyn" he said. I shook my head and focused on what he was saying.

" I'm sorry Andrew, what were you saying? "

"I need you to clear off section two before you leave." He said in his thick british accent. I nodded and went outisde to clear off the patio tables.

Once they were clean, I checked out and hurried to my bike, if I didn't hurry I was going to be late.

Luckily the university was only a few minutes away. I peddled my way toward Building C, where my advanced literature class was held, and nearly jumped off my bike before it was stopped. I fumbled with the lock for a bit before finally closing it.

I walked through the doors of the classroom only to find that my professor had already began teaching. I hurried to an empty seat, pulling out my notes as fast as I could.

BAM! Someone had just burst through the door. A boy with light brown shaggy hair. The room went silent as the professor glared at him as he made his way past my seat.

"Anyways, as I was saying, Charles Dickens...", My professor continued as he stared after the boy.

I had jumped about a foot out of my chair when the door flew open and ended up dropping my pen, it had rolled three seats down from me.

There was no way I was going to be able to get it without causing more of a distraction. I began to panic as I searched my bag for another.

I was starting to sweat bullets as I stressed over finding a pen when someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned to see the boy with the light brown hair. He was offering me his pen.

"Don't worry, I'm a good listener," he assured me when I hesitated to take it.

I thanked him quietly and turned around to copy down what the professor was currently discussing.

Two hours later, when we were dismissed, I packed away my things and turned around to return the pen to the boy, only to find that he was no longer there.

I would have to return it to him during the next class session.
