Wrong!

This school is a definition of gigantic! I've been literally going around these halls for what felt like an hour, and i cannot find the exit for the life of me.

I could ask someone, but so far I've only seen two people, two guys to be specific and they looked far too intimidating to approach, I'm so frustrated I literally am a second away from breaking down, this is too much stress for me!

I suddenly hear the sound of footsteps coming towards me, turning around I gather all the courage I have in me, I'm going to ask them, I'm going to ask them I'm goi-

No way!

I mean yes!

I watch the guy from earlier walk towards me his hands pushed into his pockets, he's dressed in some black jeans and a black t-shirt, I can't help but picture his nicely defined abbs underneath it, I wonder how long it took him to get those?

"Vincent right?" I walk up to him, he barely acknowledges me, his face remains stoic as he strides away, I gulp quickening my pace so I can catch up with him.

"I'm from earlier remember when you took a shower in my bathroom and" I chuckle nervously "of course you remember what am I saying" he's not speaking God! "so eh can you do me a little favour? " I throw my head to the side so I can see his expression, I gulp, he doesn't look happy "since I let you use my shower and all... "

He suddenly halts, I take a step back watching him carefully, slowly he turns his head towards me, his jaw clenched, green eyes piercing, he looks annoyed, that I can see, I raise both hands up, he watches me silently as I bring them into a pleading position.

If I'm going to beg for anything in life, it's going to be food!

No shame!

"Pretty please" I pout shutting my eyes "I haven't eaten anything since last night, I can't find the cafeteria I'm seriously in need of some food or I'm going to pass out! "the sound of grumbling suddenly came from my stomach and I open one eye, he's staring at my stomach, he looks back at me, I raise my eyebrows giving him a "see I'm not lying" look.

He sighes looking conflicted, I'm just asking for directions why is he thinking so much about it ?"look" I start, "ill give you anything you want, I'll do your homework I'm pretty good at studying, a whole month what do you think?"

He still doesn't look convinced, I'm starting to get frustrated with his nonchalant attitude, what does it take people these days to help a starving person? , this is so over me! " OK how about I let you use my shower, any time you want, until you get yours fixed, I don't mind" I'm hopeless at this point.

He suddenly straightens up, he turns his head looking forward as if he's contemplating it, then slowly ever so slightly his head shakes up and down, the movement so small I could've missed it with a blink of an eye, my eyes widen.

"Wait really!" I gap, he walks past me, my hopes almost shatter until he slightly throws a small glance over his shoulder, that's a yes right? I sprint after him.

"Thank you thank thank you" I catch up with him, "you're honestly the best, I'm Xenia by the way, we can be friends?" I throw him a big toothy smile, he turns his head towards me, gives me a blank look, then swiftly looks away turning down the hall.

Was that a yes? A no? A maybe? A hell no? Are boys always this complicated?

We finally get to the exit, I mentally facepalm, its been there the whole time and I've been going around in circles like an idiot, cool air hits me as we walk out, I push my hands into the pockets of my hoodie feeling shivers run down my spine, London's morning air is whole new level of cold, I throw a glance at Vincent, he barely shows any signs of discomfort, I cringe looking at his bare arms, I wonder what it takes to get a reaction out of him?
