- sonny haynes
it was a week later that i finally decided to introduce myself to nico.
it was lunch time and sage and i decided to eat lunch at the cafeteria.
i had noticed nico sitting alone, eating some salad of sorts.
"girl, just go and start a conversation with him!" sage pushed.
i sighed , and stood up. " here goes nothing." i said, and slowly walked over to nico.
he was scrolling on his phone, feeding himself the salad when i coughed.
looking up , he raised a brow.
"can i help you?" he said, looking at me.
i nodded, taking the seat across from him.
" i'm sonny - we have the same afternoon class." i said, taking a drink of my pepsi that was begining to taste watery.
nico gave me a quizzical look and reached for his backpack.
"i'm guessing you need to copy my work, right?"
i shook my head and laughed. "oh no, i just wanted to introduce myself...and maybe see if you want to hang out later?" i asked quickly, chewing on my lip.
Nico looked at me thoughtfully, then abruptly stood up, slinging his bag over his shoulder.
"maybe some other time , samantha." he said, walking away.
i was beyond baffled, turning around and yelling "it's sonny!" but nico was already out the door.
i sighed, walking back to sage in defeat.
"he got my name so wrong..." i muttered , sitting back down.
sage laughed taking a bite of her pasta. "maybe he's gay? would explain why he dresses so good."
i gave her the middle finger and went back to my half eaten plate of food.

it was now late in the afternoon and i was at the dorm i shared with sage and dakota.
as usual tyler was sat on the couch,
he must have brought his playstation over again."and where have you been, SAMANTHA?" he mocked.
i rolled my eyes, placing the grocery bags on the kitchen counter.
"out getting food and cashing my check from work." i muttered, beginning to put away the groceries.
"sage told me about what happened... wanna talk about it?" tyler said, pausing his video game.
i gave him a look, "since when have you, tyler okonoma ever wanted to talk to me about my feelings?" i asked, taking a seat at the bar stool.
tyler shrugged, sitting across from me.
" bitch this the only time i will ever ask you about your feelings so spill!" he said, and i obliged.
"i just feel like he isn't interested in me, and i know i cant control that but he just seems so mysterious, like he has layers that i want to know but he doesn't want any one to see them.." i trailed off.
tyler nodded, smacking his lips. "well fuck him sonny. if he isn't interested then that is his problem . now if you excuse me, i have to go home and get ready for harold from class' birthday party." he said, and i laughed.
"harold from class invited you?" i asked, knowing that harold was extremly introverted.
"hell yeah, white boy sells the best weed. it's an open invite , you guys should go." tyler said, and went back into the living room to unhook his game system.
i sighed, thinking about if i should go to the party to have fun or spend the night sulking in my own misery while getting ahead in school work.
