Diving my car to school knowing that would be late for the first class since I overslept. Trying my best to get there as fast as possible without getting any ticket. Finally, I pulled into the parking lot and park my car, grab my notebook and head towards the classroom. Slowly I opened the door and walked inside a dim light room. The teacher has started her lecture using slides. I tried to see if I know anyone in this class but I couldn't see the faces since it was too dark. So I quickly walked to the back and take a seat. After I had settle in my seat, I turned to the guy next to me and quietly asked: "What'd I missed so far? " He turned back to me and said "Nothing, she was just babbling on and on about the course schedule." "Cool, thanks" I said, and smiled back at him. Then I turn my attention toward the front of the classroom. It seems like hours before the first break time. When the teacher turned on the lights, I looked at my watch and saw that I had sat there for an hour and a half. As people got out of their seat to take a break, I sense that someone was watching me. I turned and saw this gorgeous deep blue eyes looking straight at me with a smile on his face. I smiled back and said "Thanks for filling me in on the stuff I missed. I'm AJ by the way." He replied back saying "no problem, I'm Jake." His light ash brown hair and blue eyes just took my breath away. He was wearing a tight white t-shirt on the inside and an unbuttoned short sleeves shirt on the outside. I can see his toned body through his shirt. By this time, most of the people in the classroom had left. The teacher walked up to me and handed me some class schedule. I took it and thanked her. Then I turned my attention back to Jake and continue the conversation. We talked through the whole break time getting to know each other. It turns out that he live only a few blocks my house. This was his first term at the school, and he got his own place. I guess he comes from a rich family since he could afford to rent a whole house by himself. The teacher continued with her lecture as I sat there next to this gorgeous guy. It's obvious that nothing the teacher said is going in. I kept thinking about Jake for the rest of the class time. When the class ends, I grab my notebook and getting ready to leave. Then I heard Jake saying "So AJ, you got any classes after this one? " I replied back "nope. I'm done for the day. How about you? " "Same here" said Jake. "You want to go grab a bite or something with me? I'm starving." And he smiled. Who could say no to a smile like that I thought to myself. So I said, "sure, I know a good place that's not far from here. Did you drive to school?" I asked. No he said. So we agreed to take my car. As we walked to my car, I can see that he's a little taller than I am. He was about 5'10" in height. We got in the car and I started driving to the restaurant realizing that this will be the best quarter yet. Well guys, I hope you like the first chapter.
