Zoya's POV
It had been a few days since I last saw that miserable goblin who goes by the name of Zehraan (why am I even thinking about him-ugh) and university seemed quite cool. Ali and I met a group of friends who seemed nice & genuine so we started hanging out with them during breaks. There were 2 girls and one boy. All asian (yep it's coincidentally an all asian group).
Attia was a total barbie doll, who seemed like the type who lives for boy attention, Bee (short for some long asian name) was very cute and cheerful, her twin Mav (short for another long name), on the other hand (who happens to be the 3rd member of the group) was cheeky and incredibly clever. But overall they were all pretty cool to hang out with.
"Babe, can you pass the sauce please" Bee asked me. We were at our usual spot in the cafe on campus.
"Here you go sweety, I'll be back in a sec guys". I handed bee the sauce and excused my self. I felt my make-up practically melting on my face and needed to re-apply. It was only mascara and lipstick, but hey! I don't wanna look like a clown!
When I was done and on my way back I saw Ali had come back from the sweet shop and had took my seat. All the chairs were taken so I walked over awkwardly.
"hey baby doll" I greeted Ali.
"hello handsome, fancy seeing you here" he replied sarcastically with that cute smile he had. I swear I saw Attia drool a bit when she saw.
"Hey Zoya, did you see Trisha on your way to the toilets? I need to meet her" asked Mav. As I was replying I could see from the corner of my eye, Ali staring right at me with a smile on his face. Just then something felt tingly inside me. I quickly dismissed the feeling as some sort of digestive problem, I couldn't feel tingly because of Ali! That would just go against the whole reason of why I befriended him in the 1st place!
"But I need to see her! You don't understand, she has my class notes" Mav dramatically let his body fall on our table.
"Then pick your fat self up and go see her" Bee answered for me.
"I'm too lazy to move" he replied to his sister. Mav covered his face with the back of his hand while still on the table. What a drama queen.
"Do you wanna share the seat" Ali asked when he saw I had nowhere to sit.
"uh, no thanks, your butt's not fit for sharing a seat" I said with a smile. He stuck his tongue out at me.
"don't hate on the butt, I know you're just jealous" he rose up from his seat, "anyway, I've got football practice now so I gotta go". I walked up to him to take his place, but he just stood in front of me. So I looked up at him to tell him to move his gigantic self so I can take the seat but when I did our eyes locked.....that tingly feeling was back.....I could smell his amazing cologne which made me want to snuggle up to him and just sniff away.....what was wrong with me.....this is stupid....Ali's not my type....come on Zoya, get it together girl.
And with that, I was back to my normal self.
"don't miss me too much Zee" Ali whispered was his nickname for me, when I wasn't beng called handsome.
"I'll try not to ugly" I replied
