6 Foggy grey eyes looking in mine

Dear God!!! I am met with the most beautiful greyish eyes I've ever seen.

(Foggy grey eyes look into mine I feel like I might sink and drown and die)..... kay!  kay! Focus Lyra, now is not the time to go  Taylor Swift on the guy.

I must have zoned out because he is looking at me weirdly. I just made a fool out of myself in front of these gorgeous being, Stupid me. But his face is oddly familiar.

"Hey "

" Is this seat taken? " he asked me coldly.

" Oh No No It's not. "

" KAY .... Thanks. "

He takes a seat beside me not sparing a glance. RUDE. Now, what do I do? Do I talk? Smile? Okay, Be cool Lyra, I reminded myself and extend my hand to shake.

"Hi I am Lyra"

He looks at my extended hand and just nods his head. Just nodding!!!?? Okay first of all ouch!! That's so embarrassing.

he may be handsome but he is so rude.

" Lichen I think your shirt's inside out," he says out of nowhere. It takes a moment to realize he's talking to me.

The nerve of this guy to call me Lichen, I am mad as hell. I would love to put my fingers in his sharp nose and let it bleed. MENTAL IMAGE SHOO.

" First of all, my name is Lyra not LICHEN and second of all my shirt Wait What?"

I look down at my shirt and sure enough, my shirt is inside out. I could feel my face warming instantly.

My shirt is inside out and I have been wandering around the college campus and Where else the restaurant without any clue about my shirt.

God, please save me now, I am too ashames to look up at the smirking asshole. I am not going to give him the satisfaction of embarrassing me.

" I know. It's a fashion don't you know? BRAT. "I Spat irritatedly.

He looks mad at the word Brat.

But I am smiling inside, nobody gets away treating me like that.

I just hope he finds another seat and goes away.

I don't want to be stuck with someone like him. I haven't got to know his name and I already dislike this elephant eye colour. I'll call him that for now, I mean the elephant is grey. RIGHT?

Soon our professor walks in and introduces himself as Professor Giddeon. He seems young in his mid-thirties. He starts calling our name and the next name he says did a lot of things to my pumping machine.

"COLE ANDERSON "

Seriously Cole Anderson ?? The guy I had a crush in 7th grade is in the class? I mean there can't be two Cole Anderson and that's not the best part I literally just went heaven when I heard the word 'present' beside me. My eyes almost bulge out when I see the elephant eye colour I mean Cole smirking at me when he saw me staring at him wide eye.

I wonder how many more heart attacks can I endure today.

I point my fingers at him accusingly and stammered like the fool I am " You -You Ahhh You are Cole?? "

" So? " He replies cockily.

" I mean You right... Don't you know me?"

" Is that a stupid question? "

" What do you mean by stupid question?"

" I know that your name is Lichen and Do I have to know you?? He questions me slightly irritated.

Seriously What's wrong with this guy? One minute he is smirking and now he looks annoyed. I don't think he remembers me though by the way he is looking at me like I am a kid annoying his older brother by asking him questions.

Stupid asshole I hope he doesn't remember me and who am I to correct that.

" Ahh .. nothing "

" Now stop talking"

What the actual fuck is wrong with this guy. Arghhhhhhhh I so want to bit his head off.

" Listen here you prick If you have a problem with my talking go sit somewhere else because I'll do a hell lot of talking. I sit here first and you are welcome to move your ass somewhere else ."

My face must be in flames because he looks at me and laughs out loud.

"Mr Anderson, do you mind telling me what's so funny? " Our professor asks him.

I almost forgot we were inside a class.

" No professor Gideon I'm sorry," he says not meaning it.

So he knows how to say sorry I didn't see that coming.

Ouch... Did he just kick me? I glared at him and he just smiles.

That smile though ...Okay Okay  I still loathe him though. He's in the top of my hate list next to Mason.

I just wish classes will be over soon so that I can be away from the ass-grey- eyes.

After 35 minutes of groaning and kicking, classes are over.

I release my breath of relief and practically ran away from cole.

I met Abby in the cafeteria, she's in her history class before.  My next classes are in 30 minutes and I have 25 minutes to spare.

"Hey, how're your classes ?" Abby ask me.

" Fine. Yours? "

" It's history, I fell asleep," she says grimacing.

"Haha when's your next class? "

" In 10 minutes."

Abby looks past at me and grins widely. I look past her way to see what makes her so happy and I am speechless. Cole is grinning widely at Abby and makes his way towards us.

So, Cole is sweet to others but not me? he seems to know only how to smirk when he's around men.

" Hey Abbs "

" Hey, college" replies from beside me.

What just happen?? they call each other nicknames. It's not my business but I suddenly feel uneasy because of those nicknames.

" Lyra Cole is my cousin, " Abby tells me.

" Cousin??" I asked not believing my ears.

" Yeah. I don't think you guys have met. "

I was about to say no when Cole kindly interrupts me.

"Actually I have met Lichen Abby. She has a good taste in fashion " he says innocently like he hadn't just insulted me.

"Yeah, Lyra is cute too? Don't you think so Cole?" Abby asks him.

Please kill me.  They were weird siblings I am sitting next to them and they were talking about me like I don't exist.

" Yeah yeah damn Cute," Cole says sarcastically.

" Shut up. "

We are interrupted by a really really handsome guy making his way towards us.

Cole clears his throat and introduces us." Guys this is Lee he's my best friend. "

" Hey"

"Hi"

I extend my hands and shake his hand politely" I am Lyra ."

At that cole mutter Lichen under his breath. I glared at him and he smiles innocently.

" I am Lee nice to meet you " he smiles, unlike someone. Lee is goddamn handsome and his smiles are so infectious I can't help but smile back.

Cole, Abby, Lee and I sat together and eat our fries Abby and I got earlier.

" So Lyra what do you have in the next class? " Lee asked me.

" Religion what about you? "

He grins and spells " R E L I G I O N ".

We were smiling when Mr Rude interrupts us.

" Lee you better sit somewhere far from Lyra If you are two are in the same class "

" But why? " Lee ask Cole seemingly confuse.

" She talks a lot," he replies nonchalantly as if he hadn't just insulted me.

I can't endure Cole being jerk anymore. I almost scream when I say. " Cole Was  You always this mean? What did I ever do to you?"

" Oh I just love teasing you LIchen," he says smirking.

" For the love of God, It's Lyra, not Lichen.

Almost every person in the cafeteria is looking at me weirdly. Cole just smirks at my outburst. Fine If he likes to play I'll play along. This is gonna be fun It's being boring lately and I think I just found some fun.

.

I smirk back at him and he looks confused for a moment.

I gasp out loud and all pairs of eyes looks confuse.

" ARE YOU SERIOUS COLE? YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON OUR PROFESSOR? YOU MEAN MR. GIDEON:?" I said every word loud and clear so that almost everyone in the cafeteria hears it.

I look at everyone and act like I am guilty of exposing someone's secret.

Cole blinks but Lee and Abby were trying their best to hide their smile. I look at Lee and he winks. I just stick my tongue out and drags Lee with me to our religion class after bidding goodbye to Abby.

" Lyra why are you smiling? "

" Ohh am I? "  I don't realize I am smiling. It feels good to see Cole being speechless for once. Honestly, he's being different he doesn't smile that often when we were in 7th grade.

" Lee, how long have you known Cole? "I ask curiously.

" Cole and  I met when I was 14. Mr.Jonathan is my dad business partner ."

"Mr Jonathan??"

" My bad I mean Cole, dad.  Have you met Cole before you guys seem to know each other well ? "

" Well we were in the same class in 7th grade"

"That explains it. Come on, enough about Cole lets get to class ." he drags to the front seat.

I think I just made another friend. He's sweet and handsome and I have a feeling we will be good friends.
