The Alpha of My Life

Chapter 8 - Meeting

Being the first day of school in the new and last University year it was really a time of joy and revision of some things, like, the future.

In the house of the girls, it was constant agitation as they were trying to see what they would wear for the first day. Rose was feeling animated about all this fuss and she played along with Tia. She did not want any dark cloud to be settled on her joy.

There were rumors that a new teacher was coming to the University, and was a big deal! A very important in the community of Psychologists from the entire world. He was a legend, but except that nobody knew anything about him. A mysterious man that can easily catch interest. They knew that he was calm and withdrawn, a philanthropist, and most important, he would choose one student to share his wisdom with! He had worked in two other Universities before and it was well known the result he managed to achieve in choosing that one girl that would receive all his knowledge. The girl of his choice was seen as the lucky student and she would have been awarded for bringing prestige to the university.

But if anybody would like to know what it looked like, they didn't know sure. Some would say that he has dark hair and skin, others that he was blond and pale. None would know exactly how he was looking, because he was a man that loved to change his appearance. He was a mystery and a genius, probably the best two reasons why people were in such hysteria that he will come and teach at the University

The girls were no exception. They were so opposite when it came to nerves. Tia was chatty when Rose was silent and retreated. Now with the hot guy in the building, it was even more for her to put up all the things together.

She did not see him since that hot moment they shared but she was receiving every morning a bouquet of lilies from the valley. He was trying slowly to reach her heart, and he was succeeding.

Tia flipped three fingers in front of her face, she didn't even hear her approaching.

Tia smiled at her,

"Stop the daydreaming girl! Who are you dreaming of? The hot wet guy or the hot teacher?"

Rose smiled but she was pulling the time in not giving a straight answer.

"How on earth do you know the new teacher is hot Tia? He doesn't like to have photos of him and his meetings were secrets and mostly at night. Not even at our classes, I don't think we would see him too much. Nobody knows exactly his age or looks. This is just stupid behavior."

Tia made a shocked face but she wasn't to give up,

"You will see sis, you will see," she said while knobbing her head, and raising a hand towards Rose, " And I am not stupid. Or my behavior."

Rose took her hands and gave her a smile, but could not restrain herself,

" I don't care even if he is Adonis who had fallen on earth Tia, I am interested in his brain. I want to know if he will approach us with some new ways of readings the cognitive and sensitive simulators and what he thinks about the hypnosis."

Tia waved a hand while going to take her shoes on like she was already bored with the subject,

"Yeah, yeah, I won't let you go further into the subject because we might not even get to school today, so go finish dressing."

Rose smiled, but she listened to her friend. She was right after all. Rose was absolutely fascinated by the subject of hypnosis. She tends to become really enthusiastic about it too.

With all these thoughts in her mind, she put on a pair of boots with high heels and went onto the balcony to take a little bit of air. From where their apartment was they were able to see really good the University. She spotted a sea of people, probably students around a very dark limousine.

'Apparently, the VIP arrived at the front door' she murmured.

While watching the limo she could not hold herself a shiver.

'Hmm...' she thought, ' I need to take a more warm coat, is colder than I expected and went inside.

They found themselves in a sea of people all going to the conference salle. A huge amphitheater that could host from 3500 to 4000 people and it seemed they were all there. The two of them were up, not far from the door, as it was hell to be somewhere in the middle.

Rose felt a warmth in her stomach and she felt immediately a look over her and know instantly who it was. Those strange eyes were in a fire over her. He was separated by easily 100 people, but she was feeling like he was next to her. The fire in his eyes was burning her skin. Suddenly she was feeling like maybe she is wearing too many clothes. Luckily for once, Tia was paying attention down at the podium for the VIP, she wanted to make her point that he is a handsome guy.

Rose was a bit off with what was around her. She could see that Gray was next to a man that was also paying attention at the podium, and at some point, she could hear that everybody was in silent mode, but she could not leave him from her side. It was like his eyes were hypnotizing her, making her delicious promises. She was feeling even that she was having a stupid smile on her face but could not take it off.

She heard at the microphone a deep voice saying "Green coat!" and fend the elbow of Tia in her ribs.

"Rose is you! He is looking at you!"

That was the moment endured to stop the exchange of glances and to look at whoever indicated a green coat, like the one she was wearing.

Was like the moment was in slow motion, she turned to look at the man, and was like time stood still.

Her heart stopped a few bits and a terror took control of her. She started shaking really hard.

'That man!' she thinks

'That man!' whispered a second time.

Tia was looking at her half in disbelief and half interrogating. The rest of the amphitheater was not aware of who the girl in the green coat was so they looked around to spot the person. Luckily there were various girls.

She wasn't looking at Gray anymore but she could feel he was worried about her. The last thing she wanted was to make fool of herself in front of 4000 people so she started to back walk to the door with Tis looking at her with pure worried now while she could not even talk correctly anymore,

"I am sorry Tia, I need to get out of here" she mumbled. Tia looked behind her for a few seconds in shock when she felt two hands grabbing her arms,

"Where did she go?" Gray asked,

"I...I don't know sure" she mumbled, looking at him and the guy next to him that looked like he was having a face made out of marble.

Gray shocked her arms, a bit harder than he intentioned but he was really worried for Rose, mostly about the shock he had read on her face.

Tia was recovering a bit now from the shock she has been throw and made a move to take Gray's hands from her arms because she could understand he was worried but she did not want a pair of muscly hands on her arms. Those hands were promised.

She moved her head for them to follow her.

She was having an idea where her friend was and everything wanted was to check on her, knowing she is ok. Only after she will ask her, 'What the hell was that? What is wrong with her?'
