Chapter 1: Just Friends
Hmmm.....my pen just stopped writing and we are about to start a test... What do I do?.
Someone just left his pen in front of his desk and turned back to reply someone else and I quickly stole or rather "took" his pen.
This was the first time I noticed him in my life throughout my stay in this university, oh well apart from the fact that I knew him as a guy who always came late to classes.
Okay..... time for the introduction
I am Jamil and the guy in question is Vee. We are both freshers.
I am a girl who just got into the university at a very young age, focused on studying and graduating with good grades and nothing else.... Or so I thought.
My life is a pretty normal student life which involves going to classes then back to the hostel, until I met Vee.
Vee on the other hand is a good looking guy, about 5'9ft tall, dark, has cute lips.....yes you read that right, masculine like hell and has a unique walking step that portrays him to be rich.
I attended classes as usual and the lecturer decided to give us a surprise test, suddenly my pen decided to stop writing.
"Please do you have extra pen"?, I asked my seat mate but she shook her head.
Then I noticed that the guy at the front seat "Vee" looked back to reply someone with his pen lying on the desk.
I quickly stole or rather "took" the pen and quickly adjusted my facial expression so not to get caught.
It was a normal day and I went to the hostel after my classes but I didn't know that particular day would change my life.
THE NEXT ENCOUNTER
"Excuse me, please can you help me with your note?"...
I looked up to see who was asking and it was Vee. I handed him the note, he snapped it and handed it back while muttering"thank you " under his breath.
VEE'S POV
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!, this girl is intelligent"
Yes, it may seem like I am exaggerating but I know an intelligent person when I see one and one thing is sure....
I am fucking attracted to intelligent people like crazy.
My name is Vee, a university student who doesn't stress about things.
Yes I may look unserious on the outside but I have certain goals I hope to achieve as a student.
Okay, enough of the introduction.... I have been quietly observing this particular girl, Jamil due to how intelligent and quiet she is. She once ranked highest in an unexpected oral English test.
"I have to get closer to Jamil", I always said but I have no idea on how to do it because she rarely speaks to others.
For clarification purposes, "I have no ulterior motive" or so I thought.
So one thing led to another and we became talking pals and I got her number but I made sure I didn't overstep my boundary.
JAMIL'S POV
It's so funny how I've become friends with a guy that I literally did dirty.
I enjoy his company not gonna lie, he's funny and cute and most especially he didn't overstep.
"Can I see you tomorrow evening by 7", Vee asked, bringing me back to reality.
"No problem", I shot back.
*Fast Forward*
I nearly forgot my appointment with Vee but how can I miss it, something I secretly looked forward to.
I dressed up and headed to the agreed point of meeting feeling something I could not really describe.
Should I call it "butterflies".... isn't it too early for that kind of feeling?.
I reached there and guess what....he was seated already waiting for me.
"Oh my gawd, he keeps to time and he smells so nice"... I thought within me.
"Good evening, did I keep you waiting?", I asked Vee.
"It's alright " Vee replied.
"How are you doing"
"You look beautiful"
"I'm fine and thank you ", I said while seating down.
We were seated in an open space under the moonlight and the air this night is so cool and refreshing.
We were having a normal not boring conversation, laughing and vibing.
I confessed to stealing his pen on the very first time I knew him and we laughed over it.
Everything was going smoothly, we talked about what it's like being in a relationship in a university like ours.
"It doesn't make sense, this school is fucked up", Vee said.
"Exactly", I concurred.
Alas, we were deceiving ourselves.
