"What do you mean?" I asked Niall as I took a minute or two too redeem me after the two words thrown at me.

"I think I should say, find out yourself but I don't want you getting into trouble. Let's just say he has a bad reputation when it comes to girls, well, over anything really. Some people say he's an asshole and gets what he wants always but he's never been an asshole to me. Maybe it's just people who pissed him off. I don't want to badmouth anyone here but all I can say is stay away from him Venus. I've had a fair share on listening to girls crying over him in the library because of how he used them then threw them like nothing the next."

I nodded my head and dared to look at Louis who was still staring at me. It was being to get uncomfortable but I didn't say anything to Niall. I made Niall pay for the food since he dragged me to his boring practice and he obliged quickly saying it was his pleasure.

"You are leaving now?" Ashton asked as we pass their table.

"Um, yes." I muttered quietly afraid to say anything embarrassing in front of them, especially in front of Louis.

"Nice meeting you Venus." Calum smiled as I waved at him politely.

"Venus, what a lovely name." A deep raspy voice spoke and my head turn involuntarily to the speaker. I can't believe I didn't recognize his voice as he talked to me earlier. Well, if you call that talking. He said one sentence to me.

"Thank you." I politely said. He smirked at me and I almost swooned at the sight.

"I'll be seeing you more, Venus." He cockily smirked at me while Niall said his goodbyes to his other teammates. "Pretty girl."

"Bye." I murmured to everyone as I made a dash towards the exit.

To say I didn't think about Louis' comment is a lie. I spent most of time wrapped up in my red and black duvet thinking about his statement. I hastily dragged my body out of bed and went to the bathroom. Again, as the cold water met my skin, a certain blue-green eyed boy invaded my thoughts. I tried imagining myself with him but then what Niall said about him made me erase the image of me being with Louis.

I put on my outfit for the day which includes an oversized navy blue sweater which seems to be part poncho, and flapped open at the sides, my blue straight jeans and brown flats. Not forgetting my gold necklace which has a star pendant that Harry got on my 16th birthday.

The Irish Hottie: my classes are starting in five, meet up at lunch? Sorry I couldn't walk you to your first class

Me: that's fine, yes to lunch!

The Irish Hottie: well, I couldn't walk you to class, I am actually very popular among the sophomores and I might not get out alive on your floor!

Me: don't mean to step on your ego 'the football sub'

The Irish Hottie: don't remind me.

Me: I'm heading to my class. Wish me luck

The Irish Hottie: you're going to need it after all, I bet all of the guys in your class will be swooning at your beauty, I wish I was you

Me: so you wish you're a girl?

The Irish Hottie: if it means I get to be you, then yes

Me: idiot. Bye N, I'm in my class now. See you xx

Not bothering to wait for his reply, I shoved my phone in my pocket and went inside my class. Weird, I was one of the early ones. I didn't mind but I did mind waiting. I scrolled through my phone, looking briefly at my schedule; I only had two classes this morning and two also in the afternoon. My first class was Physics; I actually got accelerated for a year when I was in high school.
