Author's POV:
Eeve woke up the next morning with a fresh mood and slid out of the bed. She made her way to the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled at her reflection and hopped in the shower. Eeve knows that she's beautiful but she's never gonna admit it...
Eeve took her time in the shower. She is not in hurry 'cause her college is gonna start at 9:30 am and it's just 6:30. The collage is just 20 mins away from her apartment. Once she was done showering, she wrapped a towel around herself and walked back in her room.
She chose a nice but sexy outfit for the day. She wore tight leather pants, a black tank top with grey long coat. Her greyish sliver hair complimented her skin tone. As she was done with her makeup, she made a few pancakes, and coffee for herself.
Eeve ate them in silence enjoying her 'alone' time in the apartment. As she was done eating she practically shoved the dishes in the dishwasher and left the apartment after locking it. Eeve drove her car out of the cellar and made her way to her college. Eeve was nervous is an understatement, she was mentally and physically freaking out. Because this was the day she has been dreaming since her childhood. 'Studying Psychology' has always been her dream and goal.
After Pushing her thoughts away she decided to concentrate on driving 'cause she didn't want to run the car over a cat, dog or even a human.
As Eeve reached her College gates, she drove to the student parking cellar and stepped out of the car taking her bag which was on the passenger seat. She locked the door and made her way to her first scheduled class. Once Eeve reached her class, she took a deep breath and entered the class.
Eeve chose to sit at the back of the class 'cause she is really socially awkward. Socialising and skin ship makes her uncomfortable and awkward. That's the reason she never had a boyfriend. Yes, Eeve did have crushes in her high school but never had the courage to approach any of them.
Not that no one found her interesting or asked her out, but all the guys just thought she was taken judging by her incredible looks. So that was even. No one asked her out, nor she had the courage to ask them out. Really awkward, yeah.
Eeve was drawn out of her thoughts when she realized the Professor has arrived in the class. She quickly pulled her notes and started to scribe almost everything that was written on the board and said by the professor. While the class was still going on, the doors of the classroom opens at a lightning speed revealing a 'breathtakingly handsome guy'.
All the girls were already fan girling over him. He paid no attention to them as the professor told him to sit in any empty seats. "Okay young man. Since it's you're first day I'm letting this slid. Don't repeat it." The professor said with a stern yet sweet voice. "Yes, Sir! " He said and made his way towards the back seat. He even has a deep voice. Damn!!
Eeve released her breath when he sat right beside her. She didn't even notice that she was holding her breath all this while. She couldn't concentrate on the lecture because of the guy's musky scent. That scent was driving her crazy and it was a bit.... arousing? That's weird...
"Okay students... This is it for today.. Since we have fifteen more minutes to end the lecture, you can socialize with your seat mates." The professor said as he glanced at his watch. And here we go again with the 'holding my breath because his scent is dark and musky and now he's sitting facing me' thing. And yes!! the 'breathtaking guy' is sitting facing her. He smiled at her and extended his hand to shake it with hers. "Name's Derik Hoxha. And you, Belle!? " And damn again!!!
Eeve being the awkward bird, hesitantly extended her hand and shook it with his. "Eeve Peeters. Nice to meet you, Darik. " Wow- she didn't stutter. She should be proud of herself for not stuttering in front of a 'oh so damn hot guy'. Derik smiled at her and leaned closer to her. Eeve's eyes widened at the close proximity all the blood in her body rushed to her face as he leaned closer and brushed his thumb over the corner of her lips and showing her. There was a piece of pancake on his thumb. Eeve mentally slapped, punched and stabbed herself for being so dumb... Here goes her first impression.
Derik deeply chuckled at her flushed face. He found that cute and adorable. "Don't be in hurry from tomorrow, Belle. " He said as he handed her a tissue. Eeve grabbed it and cleaned her face ensuring herself that her face was fine and 'presentable'. "Thanks for that derik. And you can call me Eeve. Why do you call me, Belle though? " Eeve chuckled softly and looked at him.
"Mhmmm~ I don't know. I don't usually give names to people. But you're different. " 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘥𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘮𝘺 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘦𝘯. Derik just couldn't say the last part, yet!! He smiled at her and leaned back in his chair. "Different you say. " Eeve giggled and adjusted in her seat. She found him mysterious but she felt something else too a strange pull towards him. Maybe just because he's handsome as hell? Yeah that could be. That's what she thought and shrugged her thoughts.
"So where are you from, derik!? " She asked as she didn't wanted to look awkward and creep the hot guy away. "I am from Spain. I'm here for the college. Looks like you're from here, Belgium. 'cause you give off that vibe, Belle! " Derik stated as he pulled out a gum from his pocket and started to chew it. "Yup. I'm from here." Eeve smiled sweetly towards him and oh how derik wanted to see that smile every day when he wakes up. But only if the things stay stable and don't float away. To have something, you need to face the consequences and Derik was more than ready to face them and nothing could go wrong.
They continued their conversation for a little longer and Eeve learnt that derik lives a few blocks away from her apartment and he lives alone. He's a single child just like her. He hates to mingle with people.And!!! They have the same schedule!! So this means they're gonna stick together for three whole years!!! And derik on the other had to pretend that he's learning new things about her. But in reality he knows every single thing of her life. He just wants this stupid drama to end already.
