Now that he's gone, I don't know what to do except to think about him. So to divert my mind, I try to engage myself in studies. Today is the last day of my holidays and soon I'll be having my exams. That scares me a lot. So I plan my time table according to the days left for exams.

When I am done with planning , I start with the course.

Hours past by and I didn't even realize how much time I've spent studying.

Its almost midnight and now I am feeling tired, so I go off to sleep.

* My alarm rings *

I was seriously having a good sleep. Shit man.

I don't wanna go back to university. But I have to.

So I get up from my bed , go to the washroom.  I brush my teeth, take a shower, get ready and collect all my books, my notes and I am all set to go to college. This all makes me remember the high school. It was the perfect time. I was with my family, my life was so steady. But good things never last for a long time.

I lock my door and wave my hand towards a taxi. The university is not that far. I feel like this is the first day when the semester is about to get over.

And I am here. I look around and the memory comes back. Everything is so familiar. Its 9:00. Time for my first class.

Almost everyone is here. There are three rows. One is full of nerds. The second one is full of all the  spoiled brats and the middle of is for the mediators. I am one of them.

.

I sit on the third seat, the middle row. Besides me a guy named Tyler Mahone is sitting. He's a nice guy, though we haven't really talked to each other.

"Hi Crystal." Tyler said. Woah. I was just now thinking about, we never having a proper conversation and look now he just popped up with a 'hi'.

"Hey Tyler." I replied.

"How did your holidays go?" He asked.

"Well good. What about you?" I asked him too.

"I spent them completing my course." He replied. I actually like him. Not that type of liking but I like him the way he is. Intelligent, smart and cute.

Yeah. I just called him cute. He actually is.

"Oh good. Looks like some one is ready to top. Like always." I smiled.

"Haha. I don't have any plans to top. But just preparing myself. And look who said that I always top when my biggest competitor is sitting next to me." He smirked.

He is right. I topped last year. He came second.

"Yeah." I agreed.

And our professor is here.

It's our English class.

And finally after a long lecture, we're dismissed.

"S,o what do you do?" Tyler asks me.

"I work in the Times Celeb. What about you?" I replied.

"I don't work. For now" He said.

I gave him those 'Okay' type expressions.

"Isn't it weird that we never talked when we're in the same class for past 2 years?" He said.

"Yes. That is what I am wondering" I chuckled.

And I spent my whole day talking with Tyler. All we talked was about each other lives.  As we have the same subjects we were together in every class.

"I had a good time with you, Ms. Turquotte." He said.

" Me too, Mr. Mahone" I smiled.

"Now that we're officially friends. Can I have your number?" he asked , winking.

"Sure." And we exchanged numbers.

When I reach back to my home , I am tired and I lie down on my be , thinking about Harry.
