Chapter Four (unedited)
I couldn't sleep. The moon had slowly went down and through my awakened dream, Morning had dawned. I didn't even notice until I saw the time. it Read six thirty
At least I got two hours of sleep. I sighed, I guess sleeping now wouldnt help. With another Blissful sigh, I began to stand. Making the bed before I softly walked towards the kitchen to eat. I was always that girl who gets hungry at night, or maybe wakes up because of her stomach making noises. Pretty much it's the time when I really get hugely other then those three day meal
My footsteps patted against the hard wooden floor before I reached the fridge and took out our left overs from dinner. Well my roommates dinner. It was barbique chicken and right now I didn't even care if my hands is a mess
I mean, who would use a plate and fork early in the morning?
Through the dark, my eyes stayed on the dimmed light the night had given, I watched yet my mind had wandered through what Cole had told me
What brother?
That didn't really give me any clue though. My mind began to rummage anything similar to his face but all I got was nothing. Absolutely nothing
Maybe it's because it's night time....
I tend to be dumb or what I usually say, mentally disabled at night. It's a moment of peace and quiet where I didn't really like talking much about pretty much everything.
With a sigh I began to think again. Literally, my mind won't cooperate. Ugh.
Pissed, I began to mumble. He could've given me a better one other than that right?
And then it suddenly dawned to me...
We wouldn't meet again
I groaned. Of course, how stupid of me to even think I could see him again. I was sure he didn't study in Hartfield university. I was sure of it, and if he did then I wouldn't have not recognized him. We all wouldn't. Mindlessly eating my chicken, the front door began to open. It could be them by now. They didn't even give me a call....
A wave of laughter emitted through the silent room as I watched two figures stumbling over their feet, their laughters and giggle didn't stop as they held on each other for support
I continued to watch them, not bothered with their childish ways. pretty much I looked disheveled and ugly with a chicken leg on my hand. My eyes never leaving theirs until they stopped and froze when they saw me watching
I'm such a creep
"Colby is that you?" Penny slurred. Her eyes dilated as she scrutinized over my figure until a lazy smile came back from her smeared lips
"Colby! Darling! Hi I thought you were behind us?" She blinked before she turned towards Peter who cheeks were red. His didn't look up to meet my eyes which meant they totally forgot about me. I didn't reply as I watched them. Penny continued to mumble and tell out how fun her night was, that she actually had went into one of the best frat parties ever while Peter continued to be silent. At least he had a decency to stay sober for Pennies sake
"It's good you guys came home" I finally said. Peter of course looked up and gave her a guilty look.
"I'm really sorry Colby. It's just - penny got intoxicated and things just happened and-"
"Me and Peter fúcked" penny babbled. Her eyes droopy as she grinned at Peter who looked at her in horror
"I literally fúcked my brother" a hiccup began to burst through her mouth before she apologize. Clearly I saw how peters face fell down. He didn't expect that at all. Especially when he had been pinning for Penny pretty much since they met
I began to stare, not really bothering to yell at them for leaving me. I mean although I did leave but if it weren't for Cole, pretty much I would have stayed at the place for a long hour. Surprisingly though, I wasn't angry. Disappointed a little but that they forgot about me but the only thing that got me normally okay was Cole
Cole....
I sighed again. This was one hell of a night.....
So with a smile, I nodded at their direction
"You better take care of her before she throws up. And please be quiet, wouldn't want angelic to spit fire early in the morning" I said, indicating our other roomie. You see, our dorms consists of six rooms for six people. There was me, Peter, Penny, Angelic and of course Tod and Andy. Although I wasn't close with some of them other then Peter and Penny, I did like how normal and accepting they are for me, since I practically don't speak to them that much
"Oh uhm, shouldn't you be sleeping ? I mean, it's been a long night...." Peter trailed off before he cleared his throat.
"I am really sorry Colby-"
"Damn Peter I said it's fine" I laughed. Waving him off, I said with a grin "I know how much you waited for this night to happen so take care of that princess in distress before she goes grizzly bear on you"
Peter relaxed and gave me a smile "thank you Colby, but how did you get home ?"
"I.... Walked with a friend, now go. We'll talk tomorrow"
I could see Peter was surprised. I would have to since I didn't have much friends other then our roommates. But instead Peter nodded and carefully walked towards Pennies room, she was clearly knocked out by now. Before he closed the door, he smiled once
More
"Oh and happy birthday Colby"
You remembered
I thought. I never knew he would remember.... Well since the party is over. Pretty much late night parties were the moments we just do things, Fúck thinking. Thinking didn't fit into parties
Their words, not her
Well happy birthday to me too
It took another two hours of projects and spacing out until I had to move my self out of the comfy sofa. Angelic, who had to leave at seven for her first subject came out the earliest. Of course, since she loved her afternoons free for her time with professor Junken. And I mean literally does what he says since she had been fawning over him since the first day of semester
I wouldn't blame her though, Mr. Junken was a man with good honesty and a kid man, not to forget he was a thirty one year old single man who also took good care of his appearance and shape. Pretty much, this kind of professor was rare to find since we all see them as old goons with wrinkled forehead from all the pain he had to endure from college students. Despite his age as a professor, he did get the looks of a twenty five year old man who came out as a college student himself. The only thing I didn't like was that he tend to be very charming
And evil when it comes to favoritism and expectations towards the students who worked hard
And I mean, helping him out like an assistant with no pays and even scholarships, he was grizzly and monstrous when you do wrong and pretty much he was a devil in disguise
Everyone knew that, only they look past it
I once did, but part of trying to lay low was doomed from the beginning when he noticed my excellence in academic, I had endured hard work and all his selfish wants that weren't apart of being his assistant. I was one of his favorites at the beginning of July and that made me proud since he promised me a good future by helping me get a recommendation of one of the prestigious universities I have been eyeing for pretty much my whole high school years only it didn't happen when he found someone with a better IQ, someone actually smarter and I was cast away.
I worked for him for a month and it's still hurt but it didn't really matter anymore. Since being transferred was out of the way, I somehow had an eye for something different.....
Or rather someone
"What?" Penny stared at me wide eyed, her eyes dark with bags as we rested in our favorite coffee shop three hours later. My first subject came out the same as others and when Penny texted me to meet, I decided to agree only to be bombarded with serious questions I wasn't ready to answer
"Don't you 'what' me, Peter told me you left us at the party and went with someone. And now your telling it's a boy! Jesus, you got to tell me now. I don't care if I'm hung over, I can be until you spit out the juices" she demanded. Her fist knocked down the table while she glared, only this time her glare had a glint of adventure and a fire of something mysterious
Uncomfortable, I sighed "first of all Penny, you guys left me out-"
"First of all, we didn't" she interrupted with a snap "You just didn't come and party with us. You decided it was better to stay still and be a good girl you always wanted to be " she responded quickly while I watched her in disbelief. I may love penny to bits but I could never understand how we fit the match of being friends. Knowing Penny, I didn't have the match to correct her so I continued
"Anyway, this man..... An older college dude, we met and well he actually made my night the best"I smiled when I remembered how much thrill the feeling had gotten me . I felt alive somehow yet thinking about now, I actually did something different
I smiled at the thought
"Okay, ouch. The party was suppose to be yours! A celebration for your eighteenth birthday! And you left just for a guy!?
"You left me anyway! And don't tell me that, it was a frat party for gods sake, we both know you and Peter had been wanting to go there since Hick had informed all of us"
Penny was about to argue but she froze she she realized I was right. Sighing she replied with a guilty expression but the fire didn't burn in her eyes
"Okay fine! It was stupid and selfish to use that excuse for your birthday! But- but at least tell me you had fun? I mean, I hate it if you came out unsatisfied with your birthday not to mention the start of your first day of being eighteen... You're not mad are you?" Penny's eyes widen as if she realized what she had done. Her body went rigid before she pushed herself in front of me with horror
"Holy shit" she suddenly gripped my arms " I am the worst party planner ever, and I did it to my best friend!"
I wanted to. Be mad to be honest only I couldn't. Not to Penny when I knew from the start would plan something like this. I knew her too much to hate her for being herself. Although it was slightly disappointing, I was happy she brought me there
With a smile, I shook her gently by putting my hands around her arms "I'm not mad Penny, just don't do that again because their wouldn't be a man next time to help me"
"Gosh I love you- man?" Penny interrupted. It was as if she remembered as a light bulb flicker on above her head. Knowing her, she wouldn't let this go. Her eye calculating before it was replaced with a beaming grin " could you at least tell me if he was hot?"
I couldn't speak. I felt my face flush before I looked around where I saw other college students hanging around, coffee in hand as they talked and study Iike what we were doing. With a sigh, I turned back towards Penny who waited patiently before nodding
"Holy Fuck! At the rate of ten?"
"Ten" I said quietly which earn a big scream from Penny
"FUCK!" She jumped on her seat earning a glare from the others around us, and as usual penny didn't care. She only stared at me with the biggest smile she could ever muster. As she opened her mouth, she was stopped when we heard a snicker
"And here I thought Heartfelt was a school for dreamers, not slackers who can destroy the universities reputation"
Both our head snap towards our left where we found Carly and her group friends coming this way. Her golden bronze hair swayed against the rhythm of her perfect body. Her blue eyes watched us like a hawk while her pearly white teeth were seen by her wide grin
Oh great.
She smiled at us in mischief as one whispered something in her ear. Clearly the joke was on us and as they began to get nearer, Penny's glare got deeper
"Better fix that broken mouth of hers Kelly or else your best friend might brake her jaws with how loose her mouth could be"
My names Colby" I muttered with a bored expression
"Oh Carly, if you wanted to join the conversation you could have asked, beside I'm not the only one who needs fixing, clearly your legs need it too" Penny sneered
It was a good thing I wasn't sipping my coffee, because if I did then Penny would have been Swallowed by One hot tasty French vanilla coffee with the adds of my saliva. But instead I had the unfortunate event of actually choking on it myself
Carly of course rolled her eyes before they traveled towards me with a smirk
"And here I'm surprise how one quiet loser could fit in with a noisy one. You guys are literally a combination"
I didn't reply. I really didn't care if they wanted to pick on us but it was clear Penny hated it which was why Carly took it her mission to actually spoil herself by making Penny's life a living hell
"Do I owe you anything Carly? Because I don't like to talk to woman who's loves my life so much, she would literally barge in a convo" Penny smiled sweetly which earned a glare and snickers from the guys
"Why don't you barf some shit Broms" she hiss. Carly looked at us in disgust as if you were poop while she was the animal
Penny on the other hand pretended to choke before she started barfing, her finger down her throat as she pulled it out, revealing her middle finger
"It would literally be an honor to barf some shit into that pretty little artificial face of yours"
"Hmm..." Carly hummed as she and her friends passed through us, even the football players were their. Nudging each other as they laugh everything off as if everything was funny to them
I was about to look back towards my phone when I heard someone call my name
"Colby"
I looked up only to freeze when Conor Jones stood their smiling. He wore his jacket similar to the football team as he laughed when one guy punched his shoulder
"Just a minute dude" he said in that charming grin he always wore.
Gosh that smile....
How badly would any other girl have this moment to be actually noticed by a hot freshmen. A man who got the looks and body and even the determination to pass his subjects. Well I do. Conor James had been the man I had been in love since the moment I stepped into his high school. In short, I fell first sight when we were sophomores . I was new who transferred into town, freshly wounded when my grandparents took me in from the accident and let's just say Connor was one of those guys who actually noticed my pain. He made me happy and brought me back to actually love living again. What made it easier was that he was easy to talk to, great humor that could help anyone smile again and that's what made me so close to him. And so here I am, the reason Why I stayed in this university. And why Penny and Peter are stuck here too. Although they did have another story on why they stayed with me
"Conor hi" I began to feel my voice shake and this made me want to slap myself. How could anyone relax when you find one of the hottest guys in campus talking to you? I have no idea..
Conor smiled, that dazzling shit that I badly want to kiss. Such pinkish glow on those cheek made me stare at him like a fool
"So you in?"
"Uhm?" I hummed only To realize he just said something. My eyes widen in horror as I saw Penny snort with a smirk
Connor once again laughed and shook his head, his black hair falling just above his eyes. Those blue orbs glinted in understanding
This wasn't the first time I got lost fawning over his face while he talked anyway. It's not like he didn't mind and realize what I was actually doing other then thinking I get distracted easily
"I was wondering if you could help me again. I'm sort of failing, I need to pick up my speed till finals so are you in?"his eyes watched me and being smoothed by his charms, I nodded my head with a smile
"Of course, just give me the day and time and I'll be there"
"Cool-"
"Baby, come on" suddenly Carly yank Conor's collar as she dragged him towards the door with her coffee on hand. Plus the stink eyes she gave me didn't go unnoticed
I watched them go, but as I looked I saw Conor turn back and waved with that award winning smile which earned a slap in the chest by an outraged Carly
This only made my smile widen
"Conor seriously need to stop fucking that candy cane Before he turns into one fúcked up ken from Barbie" Penny replied after a few moment of silence
I didn't answer, my smile grew bigger knowing I could actually have an alone time with him in his dorm studying. Just as those time we had when he had struggled maintaining his grade to stay here. Not that he needed to since his family basically owned The university but according to them, he did need a push to survive without their money
Plus Conor didn't whine about it. He accepted the challenge of multitasking football, friends, parties and school
Can anybody say hot?
"Earth to Colby! Seriously dude you've been in his dorm for like, what? Five times and here you are fùckless and still living a none existent love life?"
I rolled my eyes. Typical Penny
"I only go there to help him study and beside he has Carly"
Penny once again snorted like a horse and looked at me like I was stupid "that corn dog should be literally loose down there since she fucks twenty four seven. I bet she would be tossed away like a soggy noodle with no soup"
"Okay" I turned toward her with a glare "you're literally destroying my childhood memories with your name calling"
She shrugged not bothered "I'm just saying if you like him you should go catch him"
"Speaking of catch aren't you suppose to be catching Peter because of what happened last night?" I ask. My brows furrowed as I remembered . Peter should be looking for her since she left pretty early for a girl having a hang over
"Why the fuck would I need that fucktard?"
"Don't you remember?" Penny only looked at me like I was crazy before she shook her head vigorously
"What? That I burned his ass down the dance floor?"
"Jesus you're hopeless"
