An hour and a half later I finally stepped out of the lecture hall with Sofia, preparing myself for the biting wind. I wrapped my scarf around my neck tightly and threw on a pair of fluffy gloves. Eli shoved out the door behind us and pulled on his leather coat and gloves. He approached the Harley Davidson parked at the entrance. He grabbed his helmet and yanked it on over his head. He straddled the bike and peeled out of the car park, I was practically salivating as I watched him drive off. I'm surprised there wasn't a puddle of saliva surrounding me on the ground.
Two fingers clicked in front of my face, "Snap out of is Vera". I awoke from my admiring of the living and breathing Adonis and turned to Sofia. "What's he even doing in German class anyway?" Sofia asked. I pondered the thought for a moment, "I don't know. He has been in my French lectures for the last 2 years so maybe he decided to take up German as well this year." I reasoned. "That's a lot of extra subjects for a Med student to take up" I just shrugged, I didn't really care as long as he didn't leave my lectures. College would actually suck if his delectable ass didn't attend here. Actually now that I think about maybe this half 9 lecture on a Monday morning wouldn't be too bad.
*******
After having a late breakfast with Sofia and my other friend Anna at the crêpery I headed off to the Med department for the blood donating. The Med lab was a pretty cool place, it was nicely decorated with stark white walls and wooden chairs littered the waiting area. That was sarcasm in case you didn't catch that. I signed in with the nurse on site and then collapsed into one of the comfiest wooden chairs I've ever had the pleasure if placing my ass upon.
I zipped open my bag and searched around, looking for my trusty romance novel that I always kept on hand for situations like this. After reading a long boring chapter where the central character weighed out the pros and cons of having sex with some fella, I glanced up taking a break. I could feel a pair of eyes bearing into the side of my head. I looked from the corner of my eye to see a guy clearly checking me out.
He had longish brown hair, it was around his ears in length but it was slicked back. He was tall from what I could tell from the length of his legs that were stretched out in front of him. He was quite muscular and his thighs and biceps were flexed as he leaned forward in his seat. He had a slight five o clock shadow which added to his sex appeal. His eyes were a dark chocolate brown and were magnetic. He ran a hand through his hair and then unfolded himself from his chair, getting up. I squeaked in shock and then pretended to be reading my romance story as he approached me. I couldn't concentrate on the book as this sexy beast was standing right beside.
He settled into the seat beside me, the chair creaking from his weight. There was a strong smell of aftershave wafting of him. I inhaled a lungful of the mouth watering smell, it was amazing. "I'm Micah" a deep, booming and accented voice announced. I jumped in fright to see the guy holding out his hand for me to shake. After a moment of hesitation I grabbed his hand. "My name is Vera" I smiled. He smiled a heart stopping smile and then pulled my hand towards him, kissing the back of it. "It's a pleasure to meet you" he winked; I blushed in reply and slowly pulled my hand away. "I guess I could say the same but then again..." I grinned flirtatiously, he raised his eyebrow and smirked. "So where are you from?" I asked. I was curious about placing his alluring accent. "Russia, I'm here on Erasmus" So that explains the accent. "And you" he asked. "Oh I live here. Born and raised in London" I laughed, "But my mom is Greek so that is why I look foreign." I explained. "It explains the Vera as well" I groaned in response. "Ugh don't get me started on the name. I don't know what my parents were on when they named me". He chuckled in reply and then boldly whispered in my ear, "I think that it is a very sexy name". "Oh really do you know?" I winked and before he could reply my name was called by the nurse. I gathered my stuff and got up to go but not before saying goodbye to Micah.
He grabbed my hand before I could leave, "Wait what is your number?" he asked. I turned to tell him but was interrupted by the nurse calling me again. I gave him an apologetic look before following her down to the blood donating room. "He's in there" she declared before deserting me in the corridor. I pushed open the door and stepped inside to see the doctor in his white lab coat with his back to me.
"Hello" I called out; knocking on the door making sure that it was okay for me to enter. He turned around to face and I gasped in shock, it was Eli. He looked mighty fine in his doctors uniform. I wouldn't mind playing some role playing with him in that costume. "Come sit here" he ordered in his deep and sexy voice. Ohh isn't he quite dominant. His tone was slightly harsh as he pointed at the gunnery. I placed my book on it and then jumped up, perching my ass on the edge. Once he saw that I was seated, he began to cleanse the area on my arm where he was going to take the blood.
"I didn't know that they let Med students take blood." I said trying to break the ice but he was not meeting me halfway at all. He just ignored my conversation starter and stuck the needle in my arm without giving me any warning. I gasped in pain and pulled my arm away in pain. He grasped my arm and held it in one position. "Your arm stays here" he grunted. I nodded, my mind buzzing with that fact that he was touching me.
"My name is Vera, by the way" I informed him as he turned his back to me again. He didn't even acknowledge what I just said. I tried to start another conversation, "So what did you think of Browning's lecture to-" but I was quickly interrupted by his harsh words. He pivoted on his heel, his nostrils flaring as he glared at me. His eyes were icy and harsh. "Do you think that I actually want to listen to you blabber on for eternity" my mouth dropped open at his words. "I honestly do not give a shit about every little minuscule thing that happened in your pathetic life today. Will you please just shut up and let me finish my job. The sooner you stop talking the faster I get this job done and you will get your money. Then we will both be happy as I'll never have to listen to your whiney voice again" he growled out while he ran his hand through his hair furiously.
My top lip curled up in disgust at what he was saying. How dare he speak to me like that, it doesn't matter how hot he is. I checked and saw that I had donated the required amount of blood. I ripped the tube from my arm. In a split moment I decided to swing my bag wildly over my shoulder. I 'accidently' hit the pints of blood behind me and knocked them over. The blood splattered against the stark white floors. It looked like a crime scene in here. "Oops" I said while sneering. I turned to face him before heading out the door, the smirk on his face making my blood boil. "Don't piss me off Thornton or you'll regret it" I threatened and slammed the door behind me.
I'd never met someone so obnoxious before. 'What a prat!' I growled to myself as I left the Med department after collecting my money. What I didn't realise was that I had left my trusty Romance Novel behind...
