She walked into the room, steadily.She was wearing a breath-taking red blouse, a mini-skirt and high heeled shoes.
She walked directly to her desk, without taking her eyes off the floor.She didn't want to deal with all of her friend's questions about her summer, or, which was worse, questions about how many boys she had met.
She was a very shy person, not too popular, but the one everyone liked but no one admited.
She tries to go unnoticed.She doesn't pay attention to others but her friends, and she doesn't really mind what people think about her.
That's why she didn't even notice this new guy...
7.30 pm.First day of class. He's nervous, it's his first day in university, without knowing neither anyone nor anything about it.New start.
He dressed up with his best clothes, not too smart , but without looking like a freak.Just normal, he thought.
He grabbed his bag and left the house, before checking his sugar,obviously.
When he arrived , with his second-hand motorbike, he took a breath just before opening the big door, which had the name of the university on top of it, Berckeley.
He went through the halls to go to his first class, literature.
She's liked anything related to theatre and tv since she was just a child, that's why she didn't think twice on choosing journalism and drama as a career.
She noticed him when the teacher asked him about his studies at high school: His eyes, blue as the sky, wide open; Her hair, curly and perfect, looked soft, and she had the unconditional desire of touching it; His lips, begging for a kiss...
He had a look around the class.They say the outside doesn't describe a person as they really are, but there was something in this people that, just by looking at them, told him if they were either good or dangerous.
And there she was, at the back of the class, with her perfect hair, curly like his, her big beautiful eyes.The fact the she went unnoticed was probably what he liked the most about her.
He spend the whole class turning his head back, looking at her.He tried to pay attention, but he felt a connection betweem them.I have to meet her, he thought.
His faith went down when he realized that she didn't look at him, not even once...
She tidied up as fast as she could and ran out of the class to meet her best friends in the door.Demi and Taylor, who she meet at high school, and were fortunately studying in the same university as her.They didn't get mad at her when that cute new boy suddenly stopped her but, of course, they were curious.They came closer and listened to the conversation:
-Ehm...hey
-Hey...?
-M-my na-ame i-is N-nick, he stammered
-I'm Selena, she giggled
-N-nice to meet you, Selena
-You too, Nick
I can't believe he left like that!, Demi said, He's just said that? Unbelievable...
Selena was also confused, she couldn't understand why he introduced himself and left running.
At lunch time, Nick sat down with the 3 random boys he had met in the dining hall.He had his eye on Selena's table.
When she stood up and went to grab some food, he followed her and apologized.Selena understood that he was nervous, because who's not nervous to meet new people?, and Nick felt so pleased.He liked that girl, he didn't know why,or how, but he really did, and he didn't want to loose her, when he didn't even have her...
They spent the whole lunch time getting to know each other, and laughing at eachother's fears.
When Nick told Selena that he was diabetic, Selena wouldn't believe it.He felt gratefull when she offered him her help with anything he needed.
They suddenly became good friends, but not for long...
