Forbidden Love

Chapter 2

They say that the two best days of classes is the first and last day, however my first day went extremely horrible. Gosh! What was I thinking?! Moaning her name! For Pete's sake!

A week has passed by and that same explicit scene keeps replaying on my mind as if it was a repeater. Whenever I catch glimpse of her, sudden chills possess me and the immediate impulse of running away takes over. I still haven't gotten the courage to speak to her yet.

What must she think of me now? Does she think that I am a pervert? Creeper? Or even, a rapist. This antagonizing feeling is killing me. However, little did I know today was the day when I will be confronting her.

Lunch time crept about like any other day of college. The same exact tone resonated in the quiet halls alerting lunch time. The empty halls become engulfed with herds of buffalos. I met Adley at the football bleachers. His girlfriend didn't feel so well today so she skipped the first day of classes. It will be a hassle for her when she comes in tomorrow, if she makes it, to get her ID photo because the only time photoshoot happens is on the first day. It is a tedious procedure after the first day.

You may be wondering this question. Does Atlas have a girl friend? The answer is no. The reason why I don't is due to the lack of trust you can have on girls nowadays. They always go for the hot and "best kind" of guys. Also, most of the times they usually would want to just play around with you, give you false impressions. They just want to use you as a way of overcoming their ex. No thank you!

Adley and I began to talk about life after college. What we want to study.

"So, what do you have in mind Adley?" I asked him with a mouthful of juicy Cheetos sandwich.

"After school?" I nodded as reply. "We at the moment I am planning in going to the University of Carolina."

"Really?" I tried swallowing my dry sandwich down my throat. It felt as if I was swallowing a rock. "What made you choose that University?"

Adley took a sip of his water. "I want to follow my father's footstep. He is an architect. I admire his works, his design and the way he uses his creative mindset to design extremely beautiful and elegant houses. Also, he studied there as well."

He continued explaining why he wanted to study their as well. My attention span tends to be short sometimes. Today was one of the days. I began nodding towards what he said but I didn't really capture much at what he said.

Something caught my eye. As a matter of fact, someone caught my attention. You wouldn't believe whom it was. Yep, it was Cassie. I think my mindset focused on her that I stopped nodding at Adley.

"Atlas." Adley snapped his fingers in front of my eyes. I was deep in cloud 9. He gave me a huge punch on the shoulder.

"Dude what the actual fuck!" I barked as reflex.

"Dude, I was asking you where will you be going! But Ms. Cinderella over here is spazzing over how she will get over to the ball." Joker Adley responded.

"Sorry. Look over there." I pointed to the direction where Cassie was sitting all alone. "There is Cassie."

"Ohhh. Another wet dream moan of yours will come out any second now?" Adley began laughing.

I rolled my eyes at him. "I can't even look at her to the eyes. I feel terribly embarrassed towards what happened. "

"Now you feel embarrassed when you performed a complete scene of Fifty Shades of Grey to the whole class." Adley continued teasing.

"Adley quit it! Or else I will tell on you." I got annoyed.

"Okay I will stop." Adley laughed. "Go talk to her. Make things up to her, maybe she will actually give you a chance to," He winked his eyes at me with a smirk "you know what."

"You're an ass!" I hate him.

"Just go over and speak to her. Be a man."

"Okay I will go." I hesitated.

I stood up and made way to her. My heart raced as if I was in a marathon. I felt my hands cold and numb. I was nervous. I got close to her and she seemed distracted in her book named 'His Broken Flower'.

I tapped on her shoulder. She got a bit startled and chuckled when she saw me. Oh my lord. Her laugh was so amazing. It was as if you are looking at a cute baby laughing. Her eyes so gorgeous. Chocolatey diamond treasure those were.

"Oh hey." She paused for a minute. "Atlas it is right?"

She knew my name!

"Yes, it is Atlas." I chuckled in embarrassment. "I came over here to apologize to you for what happened on the first day of classes." I said in embarrassment.

"Oh don't worry about it. It was funny!" She chuckled. She is cute!

"So, you're Cassie Murphy, right?" I asked, making up conversation.

"Yes! And you are Atlas..." She waited.

"Colton, Atlas Colton." I replied.

"Well it is nice meeting you Atlas. I hope we grow to be closer friends because you seem like a really nice guy and for having a stupid face on the first day of classes, when you said my name, I know we will have a lot of fun together." She teased.

"Wow. I really did have a stupid face?" I embarrassedly asked.

"You looked like Joey from Friends whenever he sees food." We both laughed.

"So, tell me more about you." I asked interestedly.

We began a more in depth talk about her interests. She is a very interesting person. She loves to draw, read books and also listening to music. She seems like a calm person. Her middle name is Josephine, the name of her mother. Her mother passed away when she was small and she recalls so little about her. The only thing that was left of her was a tape. Time does go by fast when you are in an interesting topic with someone. The bell rang. She began packing her things in her bag.

"It was really nice talking to you today. What a good make up for you true?" She teased.

"Yes, it was. Can I walk you to class?" She nodded.

She walked side by side and I felt a happy sensation in my heart. I may not find it odd right now but I know I will later. I will just live on the moment for now.

Atlas did end up having a good make up for his huge embarrassment on the first day. 

I still believe it hunger had to play a part of it!
