Enemies Whit Benefits

I put the last of my notebooks in the little bag I still carry to college. This is the most important year, the last year. I fought hard to get here, and I got over everyone and everything. I didn't let anything get me down. That's how I was taught when I was little, to never give up. I'm on my way, but first I have to meet Oriana and Kate, my best friends. We met at the coffee shop near the college and since then we have been inseparable. How could everything not be good during these three years? In the faculty is my enemy: Tristan Madox. We met through Kate's friend and I have hated him ever since. His presence is repulsive with his arrogant alpha air. From the first minutes we met, he made advances on me, making me unable to even stand his voice. But he didn't give up. I've been in his predatory range for three years now, but I won't give up. I never give in, I am Raven Gray, daughter of the Gray. The most ambitious and proud people in Romania. I get out of the car at the meeting point and wait for her to show up, after sending a few messages to the girls. "Raven! You came" says Oriana, and then hugs me. "What took so long, girls?" I asked, then motion for them to get in the car. "Stay! Don't leave, I promised Laura that I would take him too" says Oriana, and my mind has only one thought: If Laura comes, will Tristan come too? "Laura has a car," I say, hoping to escape while Kate starts giggling. "His car broke down" she says, and I pray that he doesn't come with that man. "Let him go with that one" I said, ready to leave, but Laura and Tristan had already entered the car. I looked at the girls who sat in the back with an indignant Laura. He sits down next to me then grins like a donkey. I rolled my eyes and started the car. "Slow down, baby. Do you want to kill us?" What are you driving so fast?" he says, and I feel like putting on the brakes specifically for him to crash. "I wouldn't feel sorry for you," I said, then faked a smile while the others laughed. He looks at me nervously. Did I touch him where I shouldn't? I do not care. I arrive in front of the faculty and am the first to get off. I try to run away from this arrogant space, even if it means going to class twenty minutes early. "Wait, Raven! Where are you running like that" says Kate, whom I would like to kill just with my look, but without success. "I'm late," I said, hoping to escape. "Our class starts in twenty minutes, stay with us, Raven," ​​Oriana says, and I feel my blood boil just when I see that ox grin of hers! "She can't stay in my presence, I'm irresistible, and maybe he's afraid he'll jump on me" he says, then his annoying grin reappears on his face. I clench my fists hoping to calm myself, but to no avail. "Only in your dreams will I jump on you, my dear," I said, then I left because I simply couldn't stand his presence anymore. His presence annoys me, his stupid smile annoys me, his blue eyes that look at me amused by my reactions annoy me. He makes me human, non-human. It turns me into a pile of nerves represented by my body. I enter the classroom, and I'm glad that I'm alone. Now that it is the last year, not all students enjoy the presence of teachers. It seems silly to me. This year is the bachelor's degree, how will they know how to do it if they don't hear the directions of a teacher? Instead, more than likely, everyone will come to the ball. Who says no to fun? No one at all wants to have fun. I was the only one who ran to be first in the class, but otherwise I couldn't escape it. That being said, desperate times call for desperate measures. I rummage through my bag for my notebook when I notice that twenty minutes have passed, even thirty, and no one has appeared. Not even the teacher. I sigh nervously and tap my fingers on the table waiting for Oriana to answer the phone. I look at the nail polish on my nails again, then continue to pound the table. Voicemail greets me again, and I throw my pen to vent my nerves. I put the notebook and everything I had on the table in my bag, without a pen. It is lost forever. I got up and walked out the door, slamming it behind me, then looked for my dear friend. I couldn't be found, so I tried to call again. When I hear voicemail for the third time, I throw the phone which lands at someone's feet. "Did anyone wake up face down in the sheets today?" he says as he shows me the phone with a scratch on the screen in front of his eyes. "Mario, I really don't feel like it right now" I said exasperatedly, kicking my foot nervously on the grass. "Trust me, I've seen it. What happened?" he asks curiously with wide eyes at me. "What happened to the twelve o'clock class?" "It was canceled. We have the whole day off. At least, those who will become lawyers" I sigh again and try to calm down. Why didn't they tell me anything? They left me here alone. "Come on Raven, ​​it's just a class. You don't have to act like that" he says, then puts his hands on my shoulders and tries to calm me down. "If you sat like a fool in class for half an hour, alone, you wouldn't say that" "Didn't the girls tell you?" he asks surprised, and I nod approvingly. Those traitors left me vulnerable in that class. "I'm leaving, we'll talk later, Mario." "Where are you running to, again?" I heard the annoying voice and immediately woke up with a hand on my neck. I clenched my jaw and dropped his hand after me. If I could kill him, I would be the happiest. I don't even want to think about what other girls those hands have walked on, I don't even want to imagine. The whole faculty knows what an apple it is. Not, in fact, all the world knows. I met ten of his girlfriends alone. Beloved for a short period of time, some of his relationships lasted even two hours. The arrogant even has a list of all his victims. I think it's in bad taste to have a list like that, but he obviously thinks it's super cool. It just disgusts me. "Somewhere far from you."
