The REAL Magcon Academy

Chapter 3

***Your POV***

I still can't believe this is happening. one second I hate everyone on the campus, the next second nothing could bring me down. My hero asked me on a date. Matthew Lee Espinosa, asked ME, of all people, on a date. It almost seems impossible. But obviously, it's possible. I quickly run up to my dorm to change. I completely forgot about my roommate.

"Hi, I'm Lexi," I hear as I walk into my dorm.

"Oh, hi, I'm y/n. Nice to meet you."

"You too. Well, I was about to go get something to eat, so I guess we can get to know each other a little better later on." Her voice is quiet and shy sounding.

"Sure, sounds great." As she leaves, I run into the bathroom and take a quick shower. I get out, grab some jean shorts and a crop top on top of my swimsuit, throw my hair into a messy bun, and head out the door. I feel a vibration I my pocket. I pull out my phone to see a text from Matt. "Come meet me by the fountain when you're ready," it says. I turn of my phone as I walk up to the fountain and smile when I see Matt leaning against the fountain. When I approach him, he throws me something. I catch it and look down at it to see it's a penny.

"Make a wish," Matt says with a wink.

I squeeze my eyes shut an wish for the only thing in the world I want right now. 'I wish for this date to go perfect,' I think as I throw the penny into the fountain.

***Matt's POV***

She looks perfect. I can't wait to get to the beach.

"What did you wish for?" I ask her after she throws the penny into the water.

"Can't tell you," she answers with a smirk.

"Why not?!" I whine and make my puppy dog eyes. She quickly turns her head away.

"Stop it! I'm not telling!" She'll spill it soon enough. She turns back around and hands me a penny.

"Make a wish," she says.

I close my eyes and wish for her to like me. No, love me. Because I think I might love her. When I open my eyes, I see her running towards the beach.

"Hey! Not cool!" I shout as I start heading after her. I catch up to her, lift her up, and toss her over my shoulder.

"Matt... Don't even think about it..."

"I'm sorry, did you say something?"

She starts punching an kicking, but I refuse to let go. When I get to the water, she squeals.

"Matt, PLEASE don't do this."

"Hmm," I say.

"PLEASE!"

"Fine. But you have to kiss me." Next thing I know, I'm staring into her eyes as we slowly lean in towards each other...
