CHAPTER 8- HIS VOICE
FLORA'S P.O.V
I woke up early today, it was very difficult but I did it. Today is the first day of college and to say I was nervous was a huge understatement. I got dressed in a cute lace top with high waisted navy skirt and a denim jacket on top. I let my straightened natural blonde hair fall down, wore my white converses and got my schedule that was mailed to my house and looked it over. I was planning on being an English major and for that, I needed to work hard. I got my bag, which was full of the things I needed for the day: notebooks and pens. I went downstairs quickly and into the living room, where my mum was sitting down watching TV.
Seriously mum? TV at this hour? I asked her once she realized I was in the room.
"What? It's addicting okay?" My dad would have been here to scold her instead of me and my eyes got teary once I remembered it and my mum obviously remembered this as well and got teary eyed herself. She beckoned me over and I immediately ran over to her, sitting down next to her hugging. We remained in an embrace until she pulled back and wiped both our tears away. "Shush! It's your first day of college, you should be happy not crying." She scolded me and I nodded knowing that she was only trying to make me feel better.
I wiped my face as much as I could so that it wasn't obvious that I had cried. "Come on." My mum said, she was going to drop me off today. When we opened the door to go to our car, I saw Noah in the driveway on his scooter grinning. He got off when he saw me coming and came next to me and mum. He was wearing blue jeans, a white t-shirt and a unzipped leather jacket. And did he look good.
Hello Mrs. Picket. He greeted my mum. He didn't know about my dad.
Hello Noah and please call me Beth. My mum greeted him back, grinning. Oh mum.
How are you? He asked.
I'm fine! Thank you for asking. My mum answered back and Noah just smiled in reply.
Is it okay if I take Flora to school today Beth? He asked while looking at me and a frown immediately took its place on to his face. Did he realize that I had been crying?
Sure! Why not? She replied and pushed me in front of her like I was the prize he won at the end of a contest and he was here to claim it.
I turned my head around and raised an eyebrow at my mum. She smiled playfully and waved at me and went back inside, to probably spy us from behind the curtains. That moment yesterday was very embarrassing so I quickly grabbed Noah's arm and tugged him towards his scooter and he didn't struggle thank God and we were seated on the scooter in no time.
I quickly wrapped my arms around his waist, not missing the chance to feel his abs again. It took us 10 minutes to arrive to school instead of 20 thanks to Noah's crazy driving and we got off after we had parked. I looked around, there were about 4 different buildings and all of them were for different branches of study. Noah and I were going to go to the second one because that's the English branch one. Yes, Noah is going to become an English major as well and I'm going to help him in class.
Why were you crying? Noah asked while I was admiring the school and its huge green lawn where students either sat or lay down. But I stiffened when he asked me and turned towards him looking at his eyes that were full of concern. I didn't know what to answer back to him; I'm not ready to tell him right now. Then he spoke again before I can utter a word.
It's okay if you don't want to tell me, I understand.
Thank you so much. I replied back smiling, appreciating his understanding.
Come on. Let's head inside. He replied, smiling as well.
He took my hand, gave it a squeeze while looking into my eyes and we both turned towards the school and started walking, heading towards our first class together.
=;=;=;=;=;=;=;=;=;
Noah and me both had the same schedule except for some classes and had told him that we'd meet up at lunch. Now I was waiting for him next to the cafeteria doors.
How was it? I asked him when I saw him close to where I was.
Not bad. He replied, trying to smile and look fine but he was failing miserably because I could see the look in his eyes and they weren't the feelings of a happy person.
What really happened? I asked.
I just had a hard time understanding the teacher that's all.
I nodded while looking into his eyes and trying to tell him that he wasn't alone. He nodded back looking grateful. I did exactly what I did yesterday and I hugged him. I hugged him around his waist and rested my head against his muscular chest; he immediately wrapped his hands around my shoulders like yesterday and nuzzled his head in the crook of my neck. I beamed against his chest. Then I heard something, a masculine and angelic voice. A small whisper against my neck.
"I-I'-m v-v-e-r-r-y-y." He sighed frustrated and continued while I stood shocked in his arms and he continued."L-l-u-u-u-c-c-k-k-y-y t-t-o h-h-h-a-v-v-e y-y-o-o-u." He sighed with relief when he finished his stuttering mess of a sentence that I was very proud of.
I quickly pulled out of his arms and stared at him wide eyed.
What the hell just happened? I asked him.
Let's just say I've been practicing. He replied, winking then grinning widely.
