I better not tell anything to Luke right now…
I hate keeping secrets… Especially from the people I care about…
I woke up early and prepared breakfast, then started to get ready for the lectures. I wanted to wear that pretty floral dress which he bought me. But if I change my clothing to something that stylish, it will draw unwanted attention. Therefore, I just wore my regular However, I tried my best to look beautiful with the limited resources I had. I didn’t pay much attention to my looks earlier, but now I have to think about how I am looked on his eyes.
clothing, a T-shirt, a baggy sweater, and a jean.

Coming to university never felt this exiting. Simple expectation of seeing him around, knowing that he belongs to me is sufficient to keep me happy.
I saw him in the locker area when I was taking some of my books out of the locker. He was discussing with one of our lectures. He was so focused on what he was telling, and he didn’t see me staring at him.
Sarah, you are at the university, there are a lot of people around you. Stop being creepy, you can’t stare at him like this.
I quickly took my books out and closed the locker. Then I walked past Jake and the lecturer, without even looking at them.
In front of the lecture hall, I met Luke.
“Hey!!!” I greeted him.
“I am coming to lectures today,” he said with a huge grin.
“Really!!! Great!”
“I don’t want to tag with them anymore. I am glad that I could speak to Shane about you. So now I don’t have any reason to stay with his filthy gang.” he said chuckling.
Oh! He is obviously so happy. But Shane will miss him a lot… Poor Shane…
We both entered the lecture hall together. Luke sat next to me. After sometime Jake also came, and he took a seat in the front row as usual.
I got a sudden urge to send him a text.
“Hey!” I pressed send.
I saw he took his phone out and look. Then he put it back to his pocket. I was holding the phone in my hands, anxiously waiting for his reply. But it seems he didn’t send me a reply before putting his phone back.
You Jerk! You could send me enough texts while at the university when I don’t know who you are, but now when I know you, you can’t even send me a single text, huh?
“Why don’t you reply. Can’t we even text during university hours.” I again sent him a text.
He read the message but didn’t send any reply just like before.
You are an i***t!!! I hate you, Jake!!!
We had two lectures in a row. Both of them were mathematics-related subjects. I felt like my mind was exhausted. So I just went to the canteen to grab something hot to ease my mind.
The whole football team was sitting together, and they were discussing something in the middle of the canteen.
The only place, there was a space to have a seat was just behind them. Normally, in this kind of a scenario, I would just walk away taking my drink, because I didn’t want to be anywhere close to Shane and his gang. But I didn’t want to do that again. There is nothing I have to get afraid of when both Jake and Luke is there for me…
So I sat behind them, sipping my coffee.
Jake was explaining something seriously to the team. He was sitting turning his back to me, so I couldn’t see his face. I was anyway in angry with him. He still didn’t reply to my text. He didn’t even look at me for the whole day. i***t!!
“I want someone to take responsibility for this task,” Jake said to his team.
“I will do that,” Luke volunteered.
“I can help you.” it was Shane.
“No need!” Luke said instantly.
I could clearly see the disappointment in Shane’s face. Everyone was looking at Luke with wide eyes. Luke is being rude, isn’t he? That is not his usual nature. He truly disgusts Shane.
“Well, what I meant was, I can handle this alone. There are other tasks we want your support.” Luke said again. I think even he felt, what he said was not appropriate.
Shane just smiled. But I am pretty sure it is a fake smile. He must be crying from inside.

I went to the computer lab since I have some more time before the next lecture. I wanted to practice the 3D modeling thing we learned last week.
I think I checked my phone for more than 20 times to see if he had replied. But there were no replies from him.
You better have a good explanation for this, Mr. Perfect!!!
I couldn’t even do my work with full concentration, I wanted to call him and just scold at him for keeping me waiting.
I came out of the lab and started wandering in the corridors, without any specific place to go. I still had some more time before the next lecture. I wanted to meet our Statistic professor before my next lecture. I had to get some information related to one of the assignments. But he was not in his room too.
I considered going to the library.
I was walking towards the library when suddenly someone pulled me to an empty lecture room, closing my mouth, so I couldn’t speak.
Jake!!! Is he out of his mind!!!
He closed the door behind us, and then released his palm on my mouth.
“Are you insane, Jake?” I yelled at him.
He was laughing!!!
“What is wrong with you?” I was so angry with him.
“Don’t you want to keep this a secret? Do you think we can keep this a secret if you act like this?” I asked again.
“Relax Princess… I just wanted to see you and hold you like this,” he said, putting his arms around me.
“You didn’t even look at me the whole day and didn’t even reply to my texts. Now you want to hold me?” I asked angrily.
