M I A

I got out of the bathroom with my hands trying to tie my hair up in a ponytail. I hurried towards my table and looked impatiently at my books that were scattered around. And when I finally managed to finish with my hair, I wasted no time in stuffing them all inside my bag.

Afterwards, I turned around and looked at my messy bed only to shake my head. I'll fix it later.

Instead, I quickly threw my back over my shoulder and hurried to put on my shoes. As you may notice, I was running late. And no, the only reason I was in a rush is that I don't wanna miss breakfast.

I was hungry and I needed to take my medicines. Also, I didn't want the food to run out. 

So, once I was completely done, I grabbed my key and ID card before I headed out.

If it was perfectly timed, once I stepped out of my dorm, I caught a figure doing so as well. My eyes widened in surprise.

Talk about coincidence...

Dressed in a pair of grey sweatpants and a black hoodie. His hair was messy as always and his eyes were a bit puffy, indicating he woke up not so long ago. 

He looked down at me and pursed his lips together. "Good morning," he greeted with a deep sleepy voice.

I offered a nervous smile. "Morning," I replied while locking my door. He shut his door as well, and not long after, we started walking down the empty hallway together. Not that we had so much of a choice, we were both heading to the elevator.

To be honest, I felt uncomfortable. Especially after last night and the dream that I just had. I was oblivious about what should I think about Sebastian at this point.

I got myself too involved with him and I can no longer avoid or stay away from him. He made sure I understood that he wasn't going to do so as well. And though the reasons are vague, I didn't mind.

Somehow, it made me feel safe and secured. Of course, I want to know why he's causing so much trouble but right now, it didn't matter. 

But still, at this point, I don't know what's going to happen next. Yesterday, he made a promise as if he let me down before. Not to mention that he suddenly started appearing in my dreams.

I know that it doesn't mean anything, it's just a dream! But still, somehow my heart took it as a sign.

Since when did I become so emotional?!
