Fated to love you

A day out with Greg

It was a beautiful monday morning, fluffy clouds, gentle sunlight, the birds chirping. The kind of day that made people forget their worries and lift their moods.

I had two classes in the morning and one later in the afternoon.

I got myself prepared for my first class which would start in two hours.

Sarah had left earlier because she said she was going to eat breakfast with Dave.

I really envy their relationship, because after their misunderstanding got solved, they became closer and spent most of their time together.

I would have loved to experience that with someone if only my heart wasn't stuck onto that cold wolf s***h cold face. Urgh!

I packed my books and slopped my bag on my shoulder, turned off the lights and went out of the room making sure the door was firmly locked.

********

I got to my first class very and got ready for the professor. Other students rushed into the class before the professor entered to start the class.

In the middle of the lecture, a Fair skinned lady, whose brunette hair reached her shoulder blades distracted me.

"I am so sorry but do you have an extra pen? I ran out on ink in mine." She asked.

I searched my bag for an extra pen I kept in it just in case of an emergency like hers and fortunately for her, I found it.

"Here you go." I gave the pen to her.

"Thank you." She smiled and continued writing.

I went back to listening to Professor.

"That will be all for today I will see you all another day." The Professor concluded the class and left.

I packed my books and stood from my sit to leave.

"Here you go. You can have your pen back. Thank you." The girl from earlier returned my pen.

"You are welcome." I smiled warmly at her.

"I am Carina by the way." She introduced.

"Aubrey." I shook her hand warmly.

"I have not seen you before. What department?" She asked.

"Social Studies"

"Cool! We are in the same department. But how come we've never met?"

"Yeah. It's possible, since it is a University. You know, you don't get to know everyone or everywhere" I shrugged.

"I think you are right." She agreed.

"Would you like to be friends?" She proposed.

"Actually, I haven't really made friends here." She said.

"It's fine. I haven't too. Let exchange numbers then?" I proposed.

"Sure"

And we exchanged numbers.

"Do you stay in a dorm or normal apartment?" She asked.

"Dorm" I answered

"I stay off campus." She said.

"Oh, that's nice."

"I will give you a call later. Is that okay? "

"Of course. Will be expecting."

"Bye." She waved and left.

That was nice, I got myself a new friend. And I went to my next class.

When I got to my class, I saw Greg and went to sit next to him.

"Hey stranger." I chortled.

"Hey stranger." He chuckled.

"How was your weekend?" He inquired.

"It was pleasant." I replied

"That's good to hear."

"How was yours?" I inquired too.

"It was okay." He shrugged.

"Just okay?" I chuckled softly.

"Yeah"

The Professor entered the class while students went to their seats.

I beought out my writing materials was ready to take notes down.

"Do you have a class after this one?" Hd asked.

"Not till three in the afternoon." I replied.

"That's cool. I don't have any classes after this one. So let's hang out?" I proposed.

"Hmm mm" I gave it a thought.

"Please?" He clasped his palms together.

"Fine" I giggled.

"And this time you are not going to bail out on me?" He narrowed his eyes.

"No, I won't."

"Promise?" He raised an eyebrow.

"I promise" I giggled.

"Yes!" He crowed loudly that it turned the Professor's attention to us.

"Excuse me young man. Behave yourself." He warned.

"I apologize for my My conduct sir." He apologized and I giggled.

*********

The class ended and we left the lecture hall

"So, where are we going?" I inquired.

"Do you have a place in mind?" He asked.

"No. I don't really know anywhere here aside from my dorm and probably Jake's house." I elaborated.

"Jake's house." He asked surprised.

"Yeah. Do you know him?" I inquired

"I met him somehow. Are you guys together?" He asked.

"What?! With who? Jake? Of course not. He doesn't even acknowledge me." I cleared.

"Good."

"Why would you say that?" I stopped in my tracks.

"I heard he is not a good guy." He said.

"Urgh! Can people just stop with the rumor! He is not that bad." I chastised and continued walking.

"Oh, you are defending him." He pointed out.

"I am not, okay?. He is just a reserved person. That's it." I cleared.

"And how did you know that?" He inquired

"I am his sister's tutor and I got to know some things from her."

"Oh, didn't know you are that close."

"We are not close. I am just a tutor to his sister." I cleared.

"It's okay. Can we just drop this and enjoy our hang out, please?".

"Sure." I giggled.

"Good. Let's go to a restaurant off campus?" He suggested.

"I don't know if that is a good idea because I have a class by three." I bite my lower lip.

"It's just 11am. You will meet up. Come on, let's go?"

"Fine." I agreed and we went to the restaurant off campus.

********

Greg got us a table at the restaurant and we ordered food from a waitress.

"So, what do you think?" Greg asked.

"It's feels nice here. And I love how considerate they are here." I remarked.

"How?"

"They have services for the middle class and the higher class. They are just modest." I rated.

"You are right" He chuckled softly.

Our food was served. I ordered for meatballs spaghetti with an orange juice while Greg ordered for italian rice with an apple juice.

"Bon appetite" He spoke in French.

"Enjoy" I smiled at him.

Halfway into my meal, I suddenly felt a cold aura around me. Like someone was staring at me.

I looked to see if Greg could be staring at me but he was way more interested in his food than me. So, it wasn't him.

I went back to devouring my food but I felt uncomfortable. 'What's happening? I only feel this way around coldface'. I looked around but saw no traces of him.

Greg must have noticed my situation because his next question was.

"Are you okay?" He Inquired.

"Erm.... Yeah. I'm fine" I assured him.

"Are you sure?" He inquired again.

"I feel odd." I admitted

"Uh! How?" The side of his eyes crinkled

"I feel like someone's watching me but nobody seems to be" I said to him.

"Are you sure?" He looked around and I nodded.

"Do you want to leave?" He asked.

"No, it's - it's fine. I can manage." I assured him and continued with my meal.

"If you say so." He resumed eating.

Honestly I still felt odd. Like someone's eyes were on me. But I tried to ignore it.

I was so engrossed in my food that I didn't notice when someone stood beside me.

I looked from the person's expensive black ankle boot to their black shred at the knees pants to the expensive jacket and finally to the face and my heart stopped in my ribcage.

'Jake?!' I screamed inwardly but in real world I was dazed.

Now, that explains the odd feelings.

I looked into his eyes and I saw rage buried behind the coldness in his eyes. If I didn't knoei better I wouelk say I saw 'jealousy' behind those raged eyes.

'Snap out of it Aubrey' my inner goddess came back after being gone for some time.

********

Hehe hehe??

This is starting to get interesting.

Who thinks Jake is Jealous of seeing Aubrey with Greg?

We all know Jake has never shown interest in Aubrey, he doesn't acknowledge her.

Could it be he's been pretending to not acknowledge her?

Does he have a secret crush on her?

We shall find out soon.
