^^^^ Up there is Blake Gutierrez






Megan's POV

Blake, Perry and I were standing in front of the main library looking at the different lists containing names of new pledges of different fraternities and sororities when someone tapped my shoulder from behind. I turned and looked at an unfamiliar face.
"You must be Megan, Amber told me that you would give some time to think about joining our sorority so I took it as a yes and went ahead to include you in our final pick, I hope you don't mind" she rushed without even stopping for a breath.
I looked at Blake and Perry who just looked at me blankly.

"Uhm okay" I sighed

She giggled and clapped her hands furiously. Amber smiled widely, showing her white perfect teeth.

"Your friends are welcome to join the sorority if they want" she blinked. I looked at the other two and they just nodded their heads.

"Great. Now my name is Alina Smith, I'm the president and this is Amber Jordan she's vice president. Why don't you three join us at the lake this evening, it's Bonfire night tonight and its like an old tradition for the new pledges to compete on behalf of their house by swimming across the lake. Whoever comes first gets anything they want which is boring if you ask me, don't worry you don't have to swim if you don't want to, I'll pick another girl to represent our house" she smiled and then walked ahead with Amber by her side.

"Ugh she talks way too much for a white girl" Blake commented looking at Alina and Amber walking away.

"That's kinda racist" Perry looked at Blake.
"Bitch you're not even white, you're Latina like me" Blake rolled her eyes at Perry
"I'm a quarter-"
"So?" Blake countered
I tuned out their argument when I saw Taylor sporting her usual look and signature smirk while walking my way.

"Damn babe, why you gotta be so hot?" Blake who also saw Taylor, whispered huskily beside me
"Oh my god, shush" Perry laughed silently.
My face suddenly got hot when she stood in front looking down at me.
"Megan, isn't it?" She gave a lopsided smile, and then the butterflies started going off in my belly.

"H-Hey Taylor, h-how are you?" I stammered and heard Blake snicker

"I'm good, I hope it's the same for you" she grinned and raised her eyebrows

"You two must be" she trailed looking at Perry and then to Blake

"I'm Blake" Blake smiled and bit her lip sensually.

"Perry" Perry waved and gave a genuine smile.

"Cool. Uhh I'll see you girls around?" She then averted her gaze to me.
"Yeah, yeah we sure will" I tried my best to be normal around her or she might think I'm creepy.

"Alright" she said in a sing-song voice and then laughed walking away. She then turned around and looked at me again and smiled.

"Megan? Do you have a thing for Taylor? If so then say it coz if you don't I'm going to make a move on her sooner or later and I don't want you to hate me" Blake whispered so that only the three of us could hear.

"I don't know yet. She has a girlfriend and I can't compete with Nina, also I've only been with guys. What will happen if I go out with her? I wouldn't have a single clue on what to do" I muttered sadly

"Ugh cut the crap Megan you've only been with one guy and that's Newton and you two didn't even fuck so what's the big deal? If that time comes around just let her be in control. If I were you, I'd give her my all" Blake stated.
We walked towards a table and sat down on it.
"Don't listen to her, Megs you're fine and you don't need some popular to tell you that" Perry rolled her eyes and started painting her nails.

Taylor's POV

I was walking past some weird looking statue that had water coming out if it's mouth creating a fountain when I saw someone walking directly towards me.

"You're such an asshole, Taylor" a hand came flying against my cheek.
"All she ever did was love you" Ivy continued trying to assault me but I held onto her hands.

"I didn't do anything  she's the one who walked away" I justified

"Well you could've chased her, now she's all broken and wouldn't stop crying and you're out here fucking every girl you meet" she retorted, her hands crossed.

"I don't chase after girls nor guys now she was the one who made the decision to walk away so if you'll excuse me I have important things to do" with that said I walked away, leaving her annoyed.

Christ. These women really think that I will leave everything behind and settle with one? I mean I'm not ready to be in a committed relationship just yet. And why does my mind keep averting to Megan I mean she's just like every other girl here, maybe I'll be able to get her out of my head after I sleep with her. Right? But why do I feel guilty every time I think about her in just a sexual way? Why do I feel drawn to her? Why does her eyes have to be so beautiful? Why the fuck am I so complicated? Ugggghhhh

I didn't pay any attention to where I was heading until I crashed into someone. A girl.

"Megan?" I held onto her arms
"Hey" was all she said before slipping out of my reach and quickly walking away.
"Aye, wait up" I jogged after her and pulled her back. She bit her lip and looked elsewhere before her eyes met mine.
"Girl why gotta be like that? What's the rush?" I let go of her hands and folded mine

"Why are you talking to me? I mean we're not friends" she asked stating the obvious

"I just wanna make new friends I guess? You seem like a genuine person" I looked at her
"You barely know me Taylor" her forehead creased
"Well then lets get to know each other then. Listen, a couple of friends and I rented an apartment just off campus and we're throwing a party tonight and... uhh you should come, I mean you and your friends, bring your friends also" I chuckled nervously

Megan's POV

"... uhh you should come, I mean you and your friends, bring your friends also" Taylor was nervous when she said that.
Why is she nervous tho?

"So? Are you gonna come?" She looked at me skeptically and nervous of what my answer would be

"I-I..uhh I don't know, I'll ask my friends?" I frowned
"At least consider it?" She pleaded. I cant help but to look into her grey blue eyes.
Finally I gave in
"Yeah sure, okay" I smiled at her. She gave a goofy grin back
"Cool, Aight. Here's the address" she took a biro out of her pocket and grabbed my hands to write on my palms.

"Well its a date then. I'll see you tonight Megan" she smirked and walked away.

What the hell? A date?! I mentally screamed. Oh god, what did I get myself into? Part of me was flattered that I was going on a party date with Taylor Jordan. Another part of me told me that this was not going to end well.
