Chapter 8: New Friends

Here is another update for you guys~

Sorry it took a while, I was a little busy writing and updating 5 chapters to my first PhaYo story that I completely forgot about writing a chapter for here. Plus, I have almost a week to finish most of my requirements for school I had to do that quickly.

This is a little sneak peak at Bas' audition! And the introduction of new characters hehehehehehehe.

On with the chapter!

-------------------------------------------------------------

Bas nodded to himself and took deep breaths. Clutching his phone with the songs prepared for his audition, he pushed open the auditorium doors and went inside. As he entered the venue, he could hear the different conversations between the new students. As he got closer to his classmates, the chatter died down, with all the eyes of the freshmen Music students on him. HE instantly grew shy as all the attention was on him now.

"Isn't he the famous freshman?"

"Yeah... I heard about him being a winner in a dance competition..."

"Why is he here?"

"Will he audition too?"

"He's so cute..."

"He must think he's better than all of us..."

Bas' demeanor immediately dimmed, already being judged by his peers for something that he worked hard on. He sat at the very back of the auditorium, away from the general public, that is until someone sat beside him. He lifted his head up to look at the person sitting beside him. A girl with a bright and kind smile stared at him, making him comfortable and smile back at the girl.

"Hi!" The girl greeted.

"H-hello..." Bas greeted back.

"You're Bas right? The omega who performed during the freshmen orientation?" The girl asked still smiling at him.

"Y-yes... that's me. A-and you are...?" Bas asked.

"Oh! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Samantha Coates. You can call me Sammy. I'm also a Performing Arts student like you, but I'm mostly focusing on acting. It's nice to meet you." The girl now known as Sammy, introduced herself and holding out her hand for Bas to shake. Bas smiled and took Sammy's hand, shaking it.

"I'm Bas, as you probably know by now. I'm focusing on Dance and Music myself." Bas said smiling, finding a genuine soul inside the university.

"You seem lonely here. Would you like to sit with me and my friends over there?" Sammy asked pointing towards the crowd. Bas was reluctant to join seeing all the judging eyes of his peers. But, seeing Sammy being so polite and kind to him, he ultimately agreed and joined her. They both stood up from where they sat and approached a certain loud group. Earlier when the auditorium went quiet, it seems that this particular group did not get the memo.

"Oi E'Sammy! Where the hell have you been?" One of them yelled.

"Yeah! We have been waiting -- OMG! CUTE BOY ALERT!" Another one yelled.

The group of four looked towards Bas, almost scrutinizing him for any faults. Bas just stood there, cautious to now approach the group. He looked at Sammy to see if this was normal, and was greeted with only a sigh and an apologetic look.

"Are they always like this...?" Bas whispered to Sammy, finding the group's reaction to be a bit over the top, but also quite amusing.

"Sadly, yes they are..." Sammy sighed.
