Versatile Chemistry: The Science Of Love Making

CHAPTER 9.

LESLIE...

Argh. The light is disturbing. I grabbed my pillow, putting it over my face to stop the bright light. After a few minutes I couldn't sleep anymore. So I sat up and checked the time on my phone. 8:32. I decided to get up early so I could catch up with Alicia.

After taking my bath, I put on a matching set of undies,a pair of black skinny jeans with a white crop top and a blue check shirt which I tied round my waist. I blow dried my hair, letting it down. My makeup was minimal. I put a few books I'm my bag with my schedule and school map. I took my phone and keys,locking the door behind me. As I turned, I bumped into someone.

"Sorry. I was quite in a hurry." She apologized immediately.

"It's okay." I said

" I'm Leslie. Leslie summers." She said.

"Roxanne stars. But you can call me Roxy."

" You're in the science department right?" She asked

Obviously. But it would be rude saying that.
"Yep."

"Then we'll be seeing more of each other." She said.

" I guess."

I quickly accepted her features. Night black hair. Small brown eyes. A bit shorter than me.

" See ya." She said walking away.

Alicia and I met up close to the college auditorium. Seriously, this place was like a mini high school. It even had some sort of cafeteria, if I could even call it that. But you had to pay. Bummer. Our schedule said there'd be a small gathering for all the freshmen. By 10:37, the hall was almost full. We were just waiting for the V.C. We took our sits according to how it was organized so that meant Alicia and I weren't gonna seat together.

I looked for a nice spot, and fortunately I found someone familiar person.

"Hey again."

"Wow barely two hours and we're already seeing each other again. This must be fate. Come sit,my new best friend. She said smiling.

I chuckled lightly. "Sorry but I'm pretty much taken."

"Hmm.No biggie." She shrugged lightly." We could be a trio. So where is she?"

" She's in the arts department. I'll introduce you both later."

"Can't wait."

This seminar,as I see it is quite boring. But Leslie seemed pretty much interested in what miss Davis( spokesperson) was saying. So ...my thought pretty much wandered off. Leslie fell asleep,eventually. So much for being interested.

Suddenly someone gentle brushed my shoulder and sat beside me.

"Hey babydoll." A familiar velvety voice fanned my ears.

Wait , that can't be. Could it? I turned slightly to indeed see max beside me. I quickly straightened my head to prevent him from seeing my face. Of all the places to be in this hall he just had to be here. But didn't strike himself as a science person. Then again, the didn't strike himself as a person who even studied. I just my head slightly, just to accept his features. His dirty blonde hair was a mess, but it sort of looked hot. His eyes were dull and by the way he swayed his head almost made him look drunk. Or was he? His entire appearance made it look like... Off course. Leave it up to Vanderbilt to get laid and drunk this early in the morning.

He suddenly turned to face me. I gasped in shock. He smirked.

"Baby doll let's play." He said.

I rolled my eyes. At least he can't think straight.

" Get your head outta the clouds Vanderbilt." I said waving my hands in front of his face.

His head suddenly fell on my shoulders. I tried to remove it but he just placed it back again.

" You know what babydoll, I know it's you. I might be drunk but my head isn't entirely in the clouds." He said.

Oh God. He knew it was me. But I guess his drunken state is currently saving me. So I didn't dare wake him up

A little while later, a guy came and sat beside Vanderbilt. And trust me, he was equally hot.

"Hey beautiful." He said

Urgh. Not another one

" Gosh max my brother what happened to him?"

" You know him right? He's a bit drunk so I hope you don't mind taking care of him." I said a little to fast.

I gentle placed Max's head on his friends shoulder, turned to Leslie who was still sleeping. I silently thanked God and quickly walked out, not sparing a second glance at them.

" Okay Roxy, just come down." I said as I tried to calm my wretched nerves.

Max Vanderbilt was really out to get me,and he even recognized me. Drunk.

I didn't know how long I stood there until people started filling out. I hand suddenly landed on my shoulders. I turned to see Alicia looking at me with a questioning look.
" Are you okay? You look like you just ran into Vanderbilt.

" No shit Sherlock." I said

Her eyes immediately dilated.

" No way! No way!! No way!!! How did you guys meet? Did you guys talk? Is that why you look as pink as my lip gloss.

" Alicia!" I hushed her name.

" Okay okay. I want details. I want details." She said.

" Not now. We're waiting for someone." I said.

" Really who?"

" That would be me." someone said

We both turned.

" Leslie. You must be Alicia. Nice to meet you."

"Same here." Alicia replied.

I could feel a great trio coming along.

**************************"*"**
At the end of the day, the three of us met back at Leslie's after getting lunch. No doubt about it, Leslie's room was a typical example of a nerdy person.

We got ourselves talking about what and why we decided to take our chosen courses and other stuff. I finally ended up telling the girls about my entire ordeal with max at the beach to what happened just a few hours ago.

" Girl he totally has the hots for you." Leslie said.

I chuckled lightly.

" I beg to differ." I said.

" I think it's the other way around. Haven't you heard of the m.v code?"

" The m.v code?" Alicia and I asked at the same time.

" You seriously dunno bout it. Hell almost all girls on campus knows about it?"

" What does it say?" I asked.

" More like what does it refer to. Apparently if max Vanderbilt sets his eyes on you and you got laid, well he doesn't know you again. Never does a girl more than once. Doesn't even spare you you another glance. So if you plan on getting laid by him, don't forget to strike off ' he's gonna be my boyfriend from your list." Leslie informed us.

" But I didn't get laid, he just kissed me." I said trying to defend myself.

" Let's just wait and find out huh Alicia. I have a feeling the chemistry Between them is more than meets the eye." Leslie said nudging Alicia.

I rolled my eyes.

Alicia later said she had a lot to go, si she left. Leslie introduced me to all the girls in the 'B' hangout.

Right now I knew I stood at gunpoint and the only way I was gonna survive this semester was by totally avoiding the infamous Vanderbilt. And I did it . Through out the first semester, I could do it again..

It's time to prepare for Christmas break. I was gonna prove to everyone that Maxwell Vanderbilt wasn't gonna get to me, no matter how intense his threat was.
