"How was the party?" Ella asked once the girls got back to the apartment.

It was two am.

"I'm tired,"Isabela groaned before flopping onto the couch.

Riele shrugged,"I had an okay time."

"Just okay?"

Riele smiled.

"So like I met this fine,boy. And when I say fine .. I mean fine. Like jawline can cut my finger type fine."

Ella laughed,"What's his name?"

"Jace,"Riele said as she slid off her vans and walked into the kitchen.

Ella's eyes widened.

"What's the last name?"

"Uhh,"Riele looked up at the ceiling in thought. "Norman I think ... or something like that."

"That's my step-brother."

"Oh,"Riele said."Well,your brother is fine as hell."

"Do you like him?" Ella asked catching Riele off guard.

"How can I like someone I just met?" Riele countered,taking out a bag of hot funyuns from the pantry.

Ella shrugged,"I dunno. Just asking."

"How old is he anyway?" Riele asked,walking out of the kitchen and flopping onto the couch across from Isabela.

"He just turned 20."

Riele smirked to herself.

She always liked her guys a few years older than her.

"Oh okay,"Riele mumbled pretending she could care less about the conversation. "What did you do while we were gone?"

"Finished moving in all my stuff,"Ella informed. "I just have buy my books and all that good stuff."

"Niceeeee," Riele smiled,dragging out the word. "Well..I'm off to bed."

"Night,"Ella said.

Riele grabbed unto a sleeping Isabela's foot before dragging her off the couch and into her dorm.

-

"I'd like an iced coffee and a dozen glazed donuts please."

"Chocolate and regular?" Matt,the barista asked looking over at Riele.

"Mhmm,"she nodded her head,taking out her MK wallet out of her bag.

"Why does a girl like you need a dozen donuts anyway?" He smiled,teasingly.

Riele snapped her head up and squinted her eyes at the worker.

"What's that supposed to mean?" She gave him an attitude,obviously not getting the joke.

Matt stuttered,"I-I mean you're just really small."

"Okay and?" She tilted her head to the side.

"I-I'm sorry," Matt sighed before turning around to make her order.

Riele rolled her eyes once he turned around and took out her phone to check the time. It was nine-fifteen and she still had an hour before she had to get to her first class.

Around five minutes later, Matt came back with Riele's order.

She paid him.

"Thank you,"Riele said dryly before grabbing her order and walking out. Ri wasn't paying attention as she was walking out of the tiny shop--which caused her to bump into someone,making her almost drop her drinks and box of donuts.

Riele was about to curse the person before realizing it was Jace.

"Oh hey."

"Nice running into you again,"Jace smirked tucking his phone into his back pocket. Riele looked up at the ceiling thanking God for making this beautiful ass creature.

"You too,"Riele mumbled,smiling slightly. "What time does your class start?"

"Nine-fifteen,"Jace said looking over at the menu.

Riele smiled,"Literature?"

Jace looked over at her with a small smile,"Yeah. How'd you know?"

Riele took a sip of her drank,"That's my first class."

"Oh cool,I can give you a ride."

"You don't have to, I can walk,"Riele protested,furrowing her brows making Jace take in a deep breath.

"Ri stop being so modest,"Jace rolled his eyes before stopping. "I can call you Ri...right?"

Riele unconsciously smiled at the nickname,"yeah."

Jace went up to the same barista and ordered a coffee. Few minutes later the two left Dunkin Donuts and hopped into Jace's black Mercedes.

Riele opened her box of donuts and started eating as Jace started the engine and drove off to their first class.

-

"Remember that boy I was talking to, few months ago. Sean?"

Riele looked up from her syllabus and sent Isabela a blank look,"Yeah. What about him?"

"He goes here!"

"Thats great,"Riele smiled,happy for her friend. "Get that dick sis."

"Already did," Isabela said making Ri's jaw drop before she burst into laughter.

"When was this?"

"Like today," Riele shook her head in amusement at her friend. "And its been almost a year since we've been talking...but I'm finally catching feelings...I think."

"You think?"

"I feel something around the guy and I don't like it," Isabela frowned. "I don't like catching feelings."

"I honestly don't get how people catch feelings,"Riele stated as she grabbed her binder from her desk. "I've never caught feelings nor had a boyfriend."

"But that didn't stop you from being a hoe though."

Riele let out a loud "aha" before turning to look at Isabela,"you right."

"I still don't get how you never caught feelings,"Isabela said,playing with the stress ball on Riele's desk. "You haven't even caught feelings for jace?"

"I met the guy two days ago,"Riele rolled her eyes in annoyance. "How can I possibly like him?"

"No...do you like feel anything when you're around him? Or feel anything towards him?"

"Oh you mean if I'm infatuated with him?" Riele arched her brow as she took off her glasses.

"Riele imma need you to stop talking fancy and using all these damn big words,"Isabela deadpanned making Ri laugh.

"You acting as if you don't know what it means."

"You right,"Isabela laughed. "But Ri,tell me. You feel anything towards Jace?"

"Nahhh,"Riele shook her head. "I mainly just wanna fuck him to be honest."

"Really?" Isabela raised a brow,not believing her bestfriend. "That's it?"

"That's it," Riele confirmed.
