Hurt.

Riley Residence.

"Assignment is due for the 20th, don't forget!" Exclaimed Mr Linsky.

I walked out of my lecture room and out to the main gate. I checked the time and it was 12:15. This meant I had 15 minutes until my lunch date with Dean. Do I really want to call it a lunch date? Well... I think I can, only in my head, of course.

"Hey!" a voice yelled out.

I turn around to reveal Dean. Can someone explain why he is here before the agreed time?

"Hi.... why are you here so early?" I ask.

"I didn't want to keep a beautiful lady like you waiting." He replies.

"Ok, what's the real reason?" I ask as I smirk.

He's so sweet, if only he knew that he's making me blush right now.

"Ok, you got me. Here's something you didn't know, I'm also studying here at this University. " he says as I widen my eyes.

Great! Now he will see me everyday and he will want to be my friend, honestly I just want him out of my life.

"I'm in the engineering faculty, the big building right here. And I noticed that your class ended early today because mine usually ends at 12:10" he continues.

Engineering? He's smart and he knows how to use words well? I must say I'm, I'm, I'm impressed.

"Anyway... are you ready?" He asked me.

"Yeah sure." I say softly.

"Let's go then." He says as he takes my hand and leads me somewhere.

We walked about 10 steps then we stopped. We stopped at a Mercedes Benz, it was black in colour and it looked very fancy. It had a personalised number plate which read "Dean V". I just stood there in shock.

"This is us." Dean says as he opens the door for me.

I enter the car,he walks over to the drivers door and enters the car as well.

"Who's car is this?" I ask.

He doesn't reply instead he smiles at me. This smile was different, it was genuine. His smile lit up the car. He then started the engine and realised that the car had very little fuel.

"What's the V for? Is that the first letter of your surname?" I ask

"I hope you don't mind, I need to make a quick stop at home first, it will be really quick" he says.

"Yeah sure, I guess... I have no choice,right?" I say jokingly.

He laughs. Then he pulls up to this massive black gate. It had silver spiral decorations on it. And beside the gate was a big wall and on my left hand side it said "Riley Resident" . So where did the "V" on the number plate come from. Then again how do I know that's his home, he could be fetching a friend.

The gates open and he drives in, there is a long driveway and while we are driving in we see about 5 people, some house helpers and some garden workers and Dean greeted them all.

We finally stop. He switches of the car and jumps out. He opens my door and says "We won't be here for long, I swear."

I jump out and notice him call for a middle aged man. The man approaches us and says "Good day Mr Riley."

So he's surname is Riley. So this is his home. Wow, it's beautiful, I can't stop looking around. As I look around I notice other cars. All of them personalised too. And all of them read "Dean I", "Dean II" so clearly they all have... oh it's Roman numerals, all of these cars are his.

"Please give me the car keys to the BMW, the Merc needs fuel" he says to this man.

"Right away, Sir." The man says as he hurries into the mansion, more like a castle, or rather a palace.

"I would invite you in but we are off to lunch, so I don't want us to drift from that." He says.

"Here you go Mr Riley." Says the man as he gives Dean the car keys.

"Thanks George, I will be back for supper tonight, I promise" Dean says as he smiles and signals for me to enter the car as he holds my door.

He walks over to his side and gets in the car and we drive out.
