I'm Not So Bad.

Chapter 3

Ocean's pov.

It has been a week since I started college here at UCLA. Its a nice place, me and Rebecca have been getting along great, I think I can consider her a friend, she also wants me to meet her other friends. So that's something to look foreword to I guess. Right know I am in my photography lecture, I want to be a famous photographer. I was looking down at my book taking notes, when I heard the class door open. I looked up and saw that boy from my first day here that I ran into. He was looking at his phone.

"You're late" The professor said to the boy.

"No really I couldn't tell" The boy said his voice dripping with sarcasm.

The professor huffed getting annoyed "Take a seat Mr. Daniels" The professor said getting more and more impatient by the second.

"I was planning on it" The boy said putting his phone in his pocket and looking around for a seat. His eyes landed on me, and then the seat beside me. He smirked and started walking towards me, his eyes never leaving mine. I looked away from him because I was getting uncomfortable under his gaze. He plopped down onto the seat beside me.

"Hello" He said with his usual smirk on his face.

"Hi' I smiled and looked away and started tuning into what the professor was saying.

"Sometimes the pho-" Suddenly I felt a poke on my arm. I decided to ignore it. "If you are having tro-" Then I felt another poke in the same spot. "Always remember to-" I felt a poke again but a little rougher. Then another and then another. 

"What?" I whisper snap at the boy beside me. I looked at him to see him already staring at me.

"What's your name?" he asked after a few minutes of us staring at each other.

"None of your business" I said getting annoyed.

"Feisty I like it" He said smirking 

I rolled my eyes at this, what an arrogant butt head.

"I'm River" He said holding out his hand for me to shake.

I looked at his hand and shrugged and looked away, we only had 5 min left anyway. You are probably wondering why I was being so rude. Well let's just say I don't like arrogant butt heads. Finally the lesson ended. I sprang out of my seat and rushed out of the class. I was going to look for a job, so I can get some money. With that in mind I started walking to town to find a job.

...............................

I have been looking around for about half an hour, and I haven't found any places. Right now I am sitting in a Cafe, called Cindy's Cafe. I was sitting at a table, with the local newspaper to see if I can find any local places that were hiring. You are probably wondering why I wasn't using my phone, well that's because I don't have a phone, I can't afford one. Hell I couldn't even afford food, which is why I'm not eating. I used all my savings to get into this college. I heard someone talking kind of loud, may I add.

"I quit!" A young male voice said.

"Why?" A older women voice said.

"Because I am"

"But I have no other employees, how am I exposed to run this place, it gets too busy for just me" Now this caught my attention. I have worked at a bar before, which is pretty similar to a Cafe. right?  

"Not my problem"

Well that's rude. 

"I know but can you please help me find someone to help me?"

"No! You're just a old lady that will die soon anyway!" Once I heard him say that, I sprung out of my chair and turned around. to see a guy probably a little older than me and a little old lady close to tears. I know this is none of my business, but I don't care. I stomped up to them.
