Nervous - Gavin James

After my awkward encounter with Mr Hiddleston, all I wanted to do was relieve all the tension that was trapped inside my body so I instantly went up to my room, threw on my fluffy robe and started running the taps on the bath. I stood there, staring out of the massive window at the university that stood tall, it's limestone glowing orange in the fading sunlight as I waited for the massive bath to fill up before I practically poured a whole bottle of bubble bath into the steaming water.

I let out a satisfied sigh as I stepped into the warm water, allowing it to submerge my body as I gazed out at the view.

Closing my eyes I felt all the tension and stress leave my body as I listened to the gentle fizzing of the bubbles, stretching out my legs as my toes poked out from the mass of white bubbles that covered my body.

"Hello..." A deep voice called from behind me causing me to jump as I clutched at the bubbles to ensure that all my body was concealed from the stranger's eyes.

"Tate you perve." I heard a girl shout as I turned around to see her pulling on the boy's arm, dragging him out of the room before she reappeared in the doorway rolling her eyes.

"Sorry about him he's an idiot-"

"Oi! I may not be in the room but I can still hear you!" The boy said frustratedly in my room as the girl just simply stuck her middle finger up behind her.

I sat there uncomfortably in the bath, hoping that all the bubbles wouldn't dissolve as the girl still stood there.

"Shit sorry, I forgot you were new and that you're probably not used to well... This sort of company. When you're ready you can come down and join us for tea if you want, we just ordered some pizza." She smiled, laughing slightly before she left the bathroom, I could hear her and Tate bickering before they closed my bedroom door behind them.

I made a mental note to lock my door in future as I quickly hopped out of the bath, shivering slightly as the cool air collided with my wet body.

Quickly I wrapped my robe around me as I walked in my room to fetch a grey hoodie and pair of black leggings before I tied my wet hair up into a messy bun.

My eyes were drawn to the window as I saw a figure walking quickly on the trail, I hid behind the large curtain as I peered down at the person.

It was Mr Hiddleston, he was dressed in jogging bottoms and a hoodie as he stood there with his hands on his hips, breathing heavily.

I could instantly tell that something was bothering him as he ran his hand through his hair frustratedly before he turned and looked at my window, instantly I hid behind the curtain my heart racing.

Shit, did he see me?

Slowly I peaked around again and luckily he'd gone off down the trail jogging into the small woodland area.

I let out a sigh of relief before making my way downstairs to the kitchen, I could hear them all talking and laughing and I could feel myself getting nervous as I was about to walk into a room full of strangers, albeit two of them had seen me in a bath ten minutes prior to this.

Quitely I entered the kitchen, they all sat around the island on the bar stools as they joked around and shared out the pizza.

"Ah, we were wondering when you were going to make an appearance. Hi, I'm Danielle, this is Tate the perve and that over there is Tristan." Danielle said as she jumped off her stool walking towards me.

Her hair was blond and stopped just above her hips in gentle waves, her skin, tanned signalling that she had probably been on holiday over summer in an exotic country.
