That stupid jerk ruined my day. How amazing. *note the sarcasm*

"Wait, you know each other?!" Sabrina asked with a shocked expression

Corey nodded and said, "yep, she was my old friend back in high school" he said as he grinned

"I wouldnt describe us as friends Corey." I said as I rolled my eyes

"Um.. Okay?" Sabrina said as silence filled the air, I gave Corey aka Mr. Jerk a deathly glare, not breaking eye contact as he stared at me blankly "Anyone wanna grab food?" Sabrina asked as she broke the silence

"Me! Im up for that" I said as I quitted looking at corey and raised my hand

"Same" Sofia said as she stood beside me as the others followed

"Ill catch up with you guys later" Corey said as he waved his hands and winked at me, which annoyed me very much

"Oh wow" Sofia said

"What?" I asked

"I think you're the first girl who he ever showed.. What do you call that word again?? Who ever showed interest at.." Sofia said as she elbowed me giving me a tiny smirk

"What?! Him? Interested in me? Oh please, he's interested in everyone! He's like a player ya know?" I said as I sighed

"Yeah, we all know that. But its the first time I ever saw his eyes light up.. Again." Uriah said as he smirked

Again? Hm. Nevermind, its not one of my business anyways.

"Nope, not gonna happen! I dont like Corey, never in a million years." I said although he is HOT, but NO! He's a jerk!

"You know Rowan, dont say things that you arent sure with." Amir said as he smirked

"Seriously. I will. Not. Like. Him." I said as I rolled my eyes

"You will not like him... So you will love him?" Amir said teasingly

"SERIOUSLY!" I said annoyed, ship me with anyone here, BUT NOT COREY

"Okay, if you say soo..." He said as he smirked

"You know guys, lets just grab food! The orientation starts in an hour and we wouldnt want to get hungry during it." Dove said

"You're always hungry Dove." Teo said as all of us laughed

"... No! Im not kidding!" I said rewinding that last 5 minutes that I saw her

"YOU MEAN THE NERD ROWAN BLANCHARD?!" Bradley said with his shocked expression
