"I just want to know who this person is." I mumbled. "I just want to confront them and ask them why."

"Maybe this Thunder guy realizes that what we do is wrong. Maybe he's trying to show you that you being apart of Team Z is bad decision." He said, before I pulled his hands away from my face roughly and glared. "What?"

"What are you trying to say, Niall?" I asked, my fist clenched closed against my sides. "Are you telling me to quit? Because I have some news for you," I added, before pushing him against the wall and sticking the tips of my claws under his chin. "I'm not going anywhere. You are not making me quit this team because of some guy who thinks he is a hero. I will find this asshole and when I do, I will kill him. Then everything will go back to normal. So don't you ever think for a second that I'm leaving this team. Because I'm not." I snapped, retracting my claws and shoving him away from me. I then opened the door and left, determination flooding throughout my body.

I don't care how long it takes to capture this guy, I just want him dead.

"Miss. Bolton, you're needed in the main office." My professor told me, as I gave him my exam. "Take your things with you." I nodded, walking back to my desk and gathering my bag and books.

I'm used to being called down to the office. It's not that I'm a trouble maker (I have a reputation to uphold here) but because I'm trusted more than other students. So when I get called to the office, it's usually because I have to show a new kid around campus. I could die happy now.

"Ah! Miss. Bolton, thank you for coming down." The dean said, as I walked into the office. I smiled widely at her, before dropping my bag onto the floor behind the main desk. "I hope I didn't interrupt anything too important."

"No ma'am. I had just finished an exam when you called." I told her, pushing my glasses back up my face.

"Excellent. Miss. Bolton, this is Louis Tomlinson. He's our new student." She introduced, causing me to look over at the boy beside her. And let me say, he was quite a looker. I mean, bright blue eyes, scruffy brown hair, and stubble. And he was built.

What on God's green earth am I saying?

Totally disappointed in myself for even thinking about the new kid, I smiled at him brightly. He just stared at me and faintly smiled, obviously in a daze. "Mr. Tomlinson, this is Athena Bolton. She is our top student here at NYU. She will be your tour guide around campus for the first few days."

"Thank you, Dean Sandler." Louis said, extending his hand out towards her. She gladly took it and shook it firmly, before allowing me to begin the tour.

"As the dean said, my name is Athena. I'm a photography major." I told him, as he shoved his hands in his pockets and nodded. This kid was getting on my bad side. I don't care if he's attractive. "What are you majoring in?"

"Drama." He replied, his British accent coming off thick.

"What part of England are you from?" I asked.

"Doncaster." He said simply, causing me to bite my bottom lip. This man and his one word answers are going to drive me crazy. "Top student, yeah?"

"Yes. I have the highest GPA throughout campus."

"Ah. Pretty and smart." He said, a wide grin on his face. I felt my cheeks heat up, something that I have never had happen before. I couldn't tell if he was flirting with me, or if it was in his nature to just be friendly. Either way, he's making a different side if me come out and quite frankly, I don't like it.

"Do you have any hobbies?" I asked, deciding to change the topic.

"I play football - most commonly referred to as soccer here."

"You're in luck. We have a soccer program here. I'm sure they'll take you in." I told him, as he nodded and stuffed his hands in his pockets. It's quite weird that he didn't have his bag with him, seeing as be would have to start classes today. "Where are you're things?"

"My book bag? It's at my apartment. I was under the impression that I wasn't starting till tomorrow." He replied, stopping in his tracks to look at me. I stared at him for a few moments, taking in his appearance, my mind becoming fuzzy with girly thoughts.

God, why did he have to be attractive?

"That's okay. I still have quite a bit to show you. Shall we continue?" I asked, trying to avert my eyes from him quickly. He nodded, before I showed him around campus more, showing him major locations and showing him to his classrooms.

My mood changed quickly once I met Louis Tomlinson. But something was off about him. I just couldn't put my finger on it.
