Forever Yours

Chapter One

It was almost finished I told myself. There was only fifteen minutes left of English Comp. and I was trying my hardest not to fall asleep through the last bit of Romeo and Juliet. Then man reading it sounded so monotone with little enthusiasm. I usually reread it on my own once I got back to my dorm.

I bolted upwards once I herd the sound of the door slamming shut. An what walked in had my full attention. He was the poster child for tall dark and handsome. He handed some papers to the professor, they exchanged a few words, then he took a seat in the front row. God, even the back of his head was gorgeous.

He wore dark, faded jeans, with the stereotyped leather jacket and boots. His hair was maybe a dark brown or black. I was to far back to notice. His skin was a bronze shade, where did he come from California?

I put my focus back on Romeo and Juliet. I tried to stay awake, making sure to take notes and not just doodles. When the professor turned off the tape, bringing the emotionless man reading the book to a stop, he dismissed the class. I packed up my bag and was almost out the door when Professor Davis called my name.

Damn, he cought me nodding off again, I thought.

"Meet Dustin," he motioned toward tall, dark and handsome. "He just transferred here from Ohio State and needs help catching up. Maybe it will do you both some good to review the work." He gave me a cautious eye. I knew he was referring to my nap time.

"Yes sir," I answered. My palms began to get sweaty thinking about helping him... alone.

Professor Davis walked away leaving us by ourselves. Dustin looked at me with his dark brown eyes and I started to feel so tiny, like he was judging me.

"Hi, my name is Aerin," I held out my less sweaty hand for him to shake and he did, without blinking, maybe even breathing.

"Dustin," was all he said in return.

"Are you wanting to start today? I don't know your schedule, but I don't have anymore classes left," I asked.

"I have one starting in twenty minutes," Dustin explained.

"Oh," it slipped out of my mouth before I realized. Oh? Your so stupid Aerin, way to sound disappointed. I thought.

"I can come by your dorm when I'm done though, It's over at five." Dustin's voice was deep but also soothing.

"Sounds good, I'm in building C room 37." I said.

"See you then," with that he walked away.
