"Hey," he called out, and I gasped, startled by his sudden closeness.

I hadn't even noticed him move closer.

I stepped back, trying to create some space between us.

"Yeah," I replied softly, feeling uneasy with the proximity.

Instead of backing off, he moved closer, his eyes locked on mine.

I gripped my bag straps tightly with one hand, while the other fidgeted with my jeans, betraying my growing nervousness. Something felt off.

"What are you doing?" I asked, trying to sound calm.

"Did you feel that?" he replied, his voice low and rough, his gaze piercing mine.

"Feel what?" I asked, hating how breathless I sounded.

He leaned in, close enough that I could feel the warmth of his breath against my face.

I snapped, "Miguel, I don't know what's up with you, but—" He cut me off by placing his lips on mine.

My eyes widened in shock when I felt his lips on mine.

They were so soft that I got lost in the moment, kissing him back and savoring the taste of his lips, which was surprisingly refreshing like mint.

Just as I began to lose myself in this unexpected kiss, a gasp from the doorway snapped me back to reality.

Chapter One
MARIAM'S POV ~ what's that sound, I've heard it before but where's is it coming from. ugh, that's my phone alarm ringing and where's the damn phone. I groan in my sleep and search for my phone with my eyes still closed since the phone is vibrating at the left side of my bed. 'gotcha' I open my eyes to see it 4: 30am. ahh, I still have an hour to get up for the day, let me sleep then. I thought in relieve, dismissing the alarm, I continue my beautiful sleep. what the hell, I thought it's left with an hour to wake up, so why is this f*****g alarm snoozing again after one minutes of sleep. I cursed internally and open my eyes to see what's wrong with the phone, only to see it's 5:30am. what the actual f**k, I only slept for one minutes, so how come it's already 5: 30am. I dragged my sleeping self out of the bed after hitting the snooze button and made my way to the small bathroom in my room. Today is Monday, and though my class starts at 7am, I've to wake up early to get ready for lectures since from where I live to the University is an hour drive because of traffic. how I wish they'd cancel today's class but it seems luck isn't on my side today - when is it ever? I open the bathroom door and, "ugh, I wish, I has a shower or a bathtub" I muttered to myself since wishing is what I'm good at, always wish for things that I don't have. My bathroom is not even consider as one to have a bathtub and a shower because of it small size and layout. It makes me feel uncomfortable and almost claustrophobic whenever I'm inside. I stepped inside and fetched water from the BlueBarrel I have in there. Cleaning myself, I get out of there as fast as possible. I used my fluffy towel to dry myself and made my way to the small dressing table I have in my room. I apply body lotion on my skin to keep it moisturize and soft. I'm a medium skin toned with a flawless complexion, though I'm a 100% African. The only thing that I like about myself is my skin toned and my figure. I have a petite hourglass body that anyone would die for, I'm 4 feet 6 inches. I got dressed in a dark blue, short sleeve mini dress with a box print pattern and a subtle flair at the hem. It's above the knee and have a v-neckline. I look in the mirror to see that I'm looking beautiful today. It's not like I'm not beautiful everyday, I just seems to be glowing today, though I still want to go back to bed and continue my sleep. I style my Afro natural hair tightly in a high ponytail and apply lip gloss on my lips for hydration. I'm not a fan of make ups because my face is as smooth as silk, so all I have to do is to apply baby oil to keep it moisturize. I apply some perfume on my body and look back in the mirror and I can see I'm ready to go. Picking up my black tote bag that has my books from the study table in the corner of my room, I sling it over my shoulder before walking to my shoe rack to wear my slippers. I checked the room to see if I've forgotten something, and noticed that my phone is still on the bed. I picked it up and checked the time and it's already 6:10am. "oh sh*t, I'm late" I said, and rushed out of the room, after putting my phone in my bag.
