A Volleyball Story

Chapter 20

"Fear melts when you take action towards a goal you really want."

Jessica.

I have the best roommates any girl could ask for. I would have thought that coming here with Corey, things would suck. But really things couldn't have gone any better.

Then there was Noah. I don't know, there was something about him that made butterflies roam throughout my stomach. The tingly feeling I get when my arm barely touched his. His smile twitches when he laughs. Even though he wears glasses, I don't care. That just makes him more attractive. Usually I wouldn't go for guys with glasses, but he looked insanely cute with them.

  I didn't really care that we were all teasing Dylan about Keith. It actually made me happy that they weren't all focusing on me. Then again, I would understand why Dylan blushes all the time with the mention of his name. 

We were waiting out front of the lounge when Keith came up to us. He actually looked cute, so I can understand why Dylan thinks he's cute. 

The five of us were talking when I see Noah come towards us. Oh gosh...There goes those butterflies again. 

"Hey." I said smiling. He seemed to smile back at me sweetly.

"Hey." he said back.

"This is Noah." I said introducing him to everyone.

"Hey Noah, I'm Dylan." she said smiling.

"I'm Michaela."

"Sydney."

"Hi." he said to them.

"Everybody quiet down!" one of the directors yelled. Just then he blew his whistle and everyone freaked out by it. "Okay, I want you to form a line. Please be nice and thank the chefs for the food. They had worked hard on the meals they make you. Sit wherever you want for tonight." he said and with that everyone went crazy.

I must say that was a horrible idea. Guys and girls crushing their body next to mine trying to get first in line. I had lost everyone but Noah. He still seemed to stay next to me. I could feel him right behind me and I couldn't help but smile. 

What has this boy done to me?

After getting some food, Noah still seemed to be right by my side. I had no idea where to sit when I found Dylan all by herself.

"Would you like to eat with me?" I asked. Even if he was next to me, I wasn't sure if he wanted to eat with me.

"I'd like that." he smiled as he followed me to the table.

"Hey Dylan." I said sitting down.

"Hey."

"Where did Keith go?" when I said his name, she instantly smiled.

"Oh he went to go get me a bandaid. Someone pushed me on the ground coming in here. It bruised up pretty bad."

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay, just a scratch." she said eating her spaghetti. Well more like chowing it down quickly.  

Just then Sydney and Michaela joined our table.

"Hey guys." smiled Sydney as she set her salad plate on the table.

"That's all you're eating?" Dylan asked.

"Yeah. I have to watch my diet."

"Syd, you're already skinny enough, you should be eating like Dylan here." I said laughing.
