Hazel's P.O.V

I stood there, trembling. The person came near my ear and whispered, "Boo nerd!"

I got turned around as my eyes fell on him. 

"Arthur! You idiot!" I angrily whispered as I saw him already laughing. I tried to hit him on his chest, but it was like solid iron.

" Are you insane?! I could have hit you! Or I could have shouted! Btw what the heck are you doing here?! Are you totally out of your normal mannerisms?!..." I continued to lecture him.

Suddenly, he pulled me close towards him, with his hands around my waist tightly.

I let out a gasp as I realized how close we were. 

He smirked at me as he whispered, "Don't get wrong thoughts marshmallow!"

I rolled my eyes and tried to free myself from his grip, but he held me tightly.

"I did this to loosen you up. You were all cramped up, and a bit of scare and anger bantering has you let free. Tell me the truth, don't you feel more comfortable now?" he whispered, staring straight in my eyes.

I bit my lip. He was right. I did feel better. All the awkwardness I felt with him before disappeared, with this silly act of his.

I nodded and smiled as he smiled in return. He let loose of me and sat down on the bed.

"Anyways, since you saw my room, I deserve to see yours too marshmallow!" He replied grinning.

I squinted my eyes at him as I said, "Hey! Don't call me marshmallow! Why are you even calling me that?"

"Because you are like it only. Sweet and loved by all, in all forms!" Arthur replied casually, as he looked at me.

I felt myself blushing. I sat down beside him and mumbled, "Thank you!"

"No problemo!" He replied.

I grinned. He suddenly asked, "Are you a typical nerd who only keeps on studying day and night and has NO life?"

"Of course not!" I replied hurriedly.

"Good! Cause I don't like them. But to be honest, I knew you were not one since I liked you..." He whispered.

I felt my cheeks getting hot. I hid my face with the hair so that he won't notice my tomato face...

"So, now that all is settled, Wanna be friends?" Arthur said, with his hand towards me.

I held his hand as I replied, "Aren't we already?" 

He grinned. Suddenly he got up and raced towards the window as he suddenly jumped out.

I gasped as I rushed to my window and saw him swiftly move from the tree to his room.

"Next time, you can be Tarzan in a movie!" I commented.

"Oh! I already did that! They said they needed a handsome fella who can jump trees! So they took me!" Arthur joked.

I laughed at his reply. 

He gave me a warm smile as he said, "Glad to be friends with you Marshmallow! Good night!"

I wished him good night too as I closed my window. 

I felt myself smiling continuously. I tried to sleep, but again and again his face came in my mind. 

A perfect face and body, with a cute smile and the most charming talks. 

The way he held me close, the depth of his eyes. 

"Marshmallow!" 

I hated that nickname but somehow when he said it, it seemed so better.

I closed my eyes as I slowly drifted to sleep.

Hey people! 

So that was for her first day. Way to go Hazel with scolding people! But I agree, the prank was truly scary!

 Seems like our Arthur here, is quick in making friends; or maybe here it is something else... *wink*

As for our naive Hazel, seems like she is already falling for him!

I was smiling the whole time while I was writing this chapter.
