"Happy graduation Camila!" Everyone yelled as I walked into the room which was meant for my graduation party or could be referred to as an after party as I had already celebrated my graduation party with my friends at school
I just finished high school and am looking forward to going to college.
I'm Camila Greyson, an eighteen years old average girl, five feet tall, slender, petite form, blue eyes, round face small heart shaped lips and as for my long thick hair, it was pale gold in colour
My grades was nothing to talk about as I never got an A, always a D or a C
I'm not the studying type, but I still try to do my best just to make my father happy
I'm the only daughter of one of the famous man in the world
My dad is greyson Levi, the owner of *GRAYSON'S ENTERPRISE* one of the most biggest companies in the world
He is the richest in California and the eight richest man in the whole world, but I don't act anything like I'm his daughter
I'm one crazy girl that loves having fun rather than listening to my dad's instructions and studying
I am so happy that I'm finally out of high school.
My mum is dead
Died a painful and unforgettable death
She was knocked down by a hit and run driver when she was about crossing the road to get into her car and didn't make it alive before we got to the hospital
We couldn't do anything about it since no one saw the driver that was behind it
Even when the incident happened two years ago it still felt so fresh in my memory.
I I'm not alone.
I have two brothers; Lincoln and mateo
They could easily be referred to as trouble makers.
Mateo is 21 years old
He is a flirt, a playboy and an unserious fellow, but behind his naughty character is a cute jovial guy who is very playful and understanding.
For his facial appearance ; he has a dark brown hair, brown eyes, thin lips and oval shaped face.
Lincoln is the eldest and behaves much like our father, strict and a bit harsh at times.
He acts like a father figure to both I and mateo whenever our dad was not around
He is 23 years old, brown hair, brown eyes, not so thin lips, six packs and muscular shaped body
He has always been over protective over me ever since we were little and I being the only girl in the family of four was treated like a princess, but I wasn't all spoilt and naughty.
"Wow... I can't believe we are finally out of high school" Ryan squealed into my ears, standing beside me
Ryan is my best friend.
We have been best friends since we were little and our friendship is close to being 12 years.
We ended up been schoolmates, classmates, and even seatmates
We are so fond of each other, sharing each of our secrets to each other
He is a straight A student, but that doesn't mean that he is a nerd
He is nothing close to that as he is just like me, the fun type.
He had tried putting me through so as to be an A student like him but I wasn't just ready.
Ryan is 19 years old, six feet tall, has strong abs, slim but muscular, has hazel green eyes, full kissable lips, jet black hair, square jaws and pointed nose
He was every girl's crush back then in high school as he's always given an award in being the most handsome guy in school, but I was never one of his crush
He is like a brother.
His parents are rich, but aren't popular.
"Yeah. Still like a lovely dream" I drawled my reply.
I had no other friend apart from Ryan because I wasn't the type that keeps too many friends, coupled with the fact that all the friends I have been having in the past were all jerks
My dad, my brothers and my bestie are the only people in my life and they are all male- so amazing
Life with them was nothing but fun
One could guess life with them as mess-with-me-once-and-regret-your-life
Surrounded always by guys had taught me how to be confident and bold, but I was scared as death when it comes to fighting.
That was my weak point
I had no idea how to fight, but what was the need learning how to fight when I had two brothers and a bestie who are being over protective over me?
"See ya later" Ryan said to me absentmindedly staring at some girl and walked off.
He isn't that much of a player like mateo but he likes to flirt with girls
I groaned in frustration and went ahead to grab a drink.
A guy approached me, one who I guess was one of my brother's friend since I couldn't recognize his face
"Camila, happy graduation! You are now a big girl" he said checking me out
I knew that which made my skin pinch and claws.
It had always been like this; guys trying to flirt with me, but my brothers don't give them a chance as they always get rewarded with either a punch or a kick, I wonder what's gonna happen to this one
"And those lips.... I could die for it" he said seductively licking his lips in a provocating manner as he brought his face closer to mine ready to kiss me
I felt sick in my stomach instantly
I have never kissed before
The thought of exchanging saliva with someone else wanna make me puke
Yuck!
I was thinking about slapping his face off but before I could put my thought into action a cold breeze blew and the guy was no longer standing next to me
I gasp when I saw mateo push him hard against the wall punching him hard
"How dare you try to touch her?"Mateo yelled at him angrily.
Mateo wasn't the type that gets angry easily, like he barely gets angry and seeing him angry now only frecks me out
Lincoln glared hard at me making me a bit scared and told Ryan to take me upstairs.
Luckily for me our dad wasn't in the country so he wasn't gonna know about any of these.
"Cami let's go" Ryan said calling me the usual name he calls me *Cami* but my brothers prefer calling me cam
I shook my head stubbornly
"Damn you!" he cursed under his breath before carrying me over his shoulder and matching upstairs to my room
I kicked, fought, struggled, but he didn't let go off me.
He got into my room, shut the door behind us and put me down
"What were you thinking flirting with that guy?" He yelled obviously pissed
"What!..... I.... I Wasn't flirting with him"
"He almost kissed you damn it!"
"I... I... " I trailed off as the door opened and Lincoln and mateo walked in
Mateo had a normal expression on while Lincoln was looking pissed just like Ryan
"What was that stunt you pulled out there?"
Lincoln asked.
"I....." I tried explaining but he cut me off
"I haven't asked you for an answer yet. What did you think you were doing flirting with that jerk?" He half yelled scaring me to the bones
"Lincoln calm down" mateo said
"Don't fucking tell me to calm down" he half yelled again and turned to me
"Try this nonsense again and I'm gonna teach you discipline"
He said and walked out of the room
Mateo mouthed an "I'll go and talk to him" before walking out of the room and shutting the door gently
I just stood fixed to my position not able to say a word.
I looked over at Ryan and saw his gaze soften a bit.
"Why is he..... blaming me.... like I did... something wrong?" I asked with a cracked voice
"It's okay cami. We all know Lincoln. He doesn't mean those words" Ryan said closing the gap between us
"You guys don't even know exactly what happened yet you decided to ruin my day"
"Come on. It's okay. Don't be a cry baby" he pouted his lips and I hit him hard on his chest making him wince
"You did same"
"I only said what I saw"
"You could have asked what happened" I cried in frustration.
"Mind you guys I'm eighteen. My life shouldn't bulge"
"Go tell that to Lincoln" he teased and I pounced on him making him fall to the ground.
.......
I woke up the next morning with heavy eyes because I watched movies all through out the night
I wanted to sleep back but I know exactly what will happen if I go downstairs for breakfast late.
We have so many rules in the house and one of them is coming for breakfast at exactly 7:00am, anything aside that would require a scolding
And I couldn't do without watching movie for a day, like it is my hobbie and I'm proud of it, though my brothers frowns at it, even my dad
They claim that that's the reason behind my bad grades.
They stopped me from watching movies at night but I still sneakily watch at night till the next morning either from the TV in my room or from my lap top or from my iPod.
I sluggishly removed the duvet from my body and checked the time from the light stand.
A light gasp left my mouth when I saw that it was just five minutes to seven AM
I had just five minutes to get dressed and go downstairs but it wasn't even enough time as I usually spend close to thirty minutes taking my bath
I quickly got off the bed, slipped my flip flops on and got into the bathroom
I did my business and took a quick bath
When I was done I didn't take much time in finding what to wear
I just wore a pink tank top and a black shinny leggings .
I packed my hair in a messy bin and by the time I was done it was already 7:10AM.
I quickly grabbed my phone and headed downstairs
When I got to the dinning room Lincoln and mateo were already there but weren't eating yet
Mateo was operating his phone while Lincoln just sat there, both waiting for me
"Ah! Alas!" Mateo exclaimed when he sighted me drawing Lincoln's attention to me.
"You are late" Lincoln said in his usual tone and my lips twitched
"I'm sorry. I had a problem packing my hair" I lied hoping he won't notice but who was I kidding
These two were far smarter than the devil.
Mateo chuckled lightly knowing that I wasn't telling the truth while Lincoln just stared at me plainly.
"Your hair is in a messy bun. You're lying. You woke up late right?" Lincoln asked but I didn't know what to reply him with as my head was blank
I just played with the tip of my top
"Did you have a movie marathon last night again?"
"She obviously did. I'm sure she didn't even rub her body lotion this morning" mateo said between laughter and I just rolled my eyes at him
"You better talk to your sister"
"She's also your sister duh"
"This one? I doubt" Lincoln said and signalled for the cook to bring the food
I scoff mentally as mateo got up, pulled out a chair for me and kissed my cheek before sitting back.
The cook served a lovely meal of chicken likka masala.
The chicken was marinated in yogurt spices and served in a tomato cream sauce and served with rice
For dessert, we had chocolate covered strawberry mint cheese cake
"Dad is coming back tomorrow" Lincoln said mid way into our breakfast and we just nodded.
I was a bit excited because he said he had a surprise for me.
After we were done eating I excused myself to get ready for my shopping
I wanted to go the mall to get somethings since I would be starting college on Monday and today being Saturday was the only spare time u had to get my stuffs
I was gonna be attending the same college as mateo and since it was just a 20 minutes drive from our house I decided to go from home instead of staying in a packed up hostel filled with strangers
Ryan was also gonna be attending the same college.
When I got upstairs I put on a denim jacket, a pair of black sneakers and a black face cap.
I put a dab of perfume behind each ear before shoving my credit card into my pocket and heading downstairs
"Do you need me to drive you to the mall?" Mateo asked
"Nop. Am going with Ryan" I said before scurrying out of the house
I met Ryan outside and he waved at me for me to come over
Actually Ryan's house is next to mine
Our room is opposite each other, so sometimes we stay by the window talking to each other.
I walked over to him and got into the front seat of his car while he got into the driver's seat.
"Good morning bestie" I greeted
"Good morning princess" he said as he did his seatbelt after which he did mine making me groan.
I never liked putting on a seatbelt, it kinda felt so uncomfortable
Ryan turned on the FM and allowed the blazing music to fill the whole car before hitting the road.
We got to the mall not too long and we both got down.
We headed straight in and a bell rang to recognize our presence
I led the way to the movie section and started looking for a CD to buy
"Are we here for movies?" Ryan asked in disbelief.
"Duh! You should know your friend by now" I said not looking at him
"Of course. I know you and that's why I'm not gonna stay here with you. Meet me at the clothes section I need to pick up some few things" he said and walked off
My eyes sighted a movie
A movie I had fantasized about, but haven't been opportuned to watch it since I haven't seen it in any movie store, but here it was.
Out of joy I rushed to it and was about taking it but someone beat me to it as he picks it first.
I turned almost immediately and my eyes met with that of a Greek god
His eyes was pure and attractive, he had a perfect body structure, his navy blue t-shirt hugged his huge muscular body
His hair was a dark shade of black, long and curly.
If not for the fact that he just offended me I would have kept on admiring him, like his super pink kissable lips and his pointed nose, but he was with the CD I was just about buying and that alone is pissing me off
"Hey! That's mine" I said trying to take the CD from him but he took his hand backwards making it impossible for me to reach it.
I knew I wasn't supposed to be picking up a quarrel with him since he was about 30 years of age or even more
"I picked it first" his voice alone sent great shivers to my spine
He has a great deep mascular voice which suits his amazing features.
"And I saw it first"
"What should someone like you be doing with a movie filled with matured content?"
"Is that even a question? You are neither my dad or my brother so why should it be your concern?"
"Seems you've got no respect"
"Watch it! I won't have you insult me" I frowned and he smiled giving him that bad boy look and before I could figure out anything he threw the CD on the floor and stepped on it before walking away
I stood there stunned, my eyes followed his footsteps until he was out of sight
My eyes went back to the CD on the floor and it was already shattered
It was damaged!
I couldn't believe my eyes.
Just when I thought I had seen it all this had to happen
I was too busy staring at the damaged CD that was still laying on the floor and didn't know when Ryan came
"Hey babe's. what exactly is taking your time and..... Why is your face like that?"
"Some crazy dude just destroyed the movie I was supposed to buy"
"You are not serious, are you?"
"I am" I said still surprised
"And you didn't send for me immediately? Where the hell is the bastard? Didn't his mama teach him some home training?" He asked in an angry tone.
"He looks older''
'And so fucking what? Does that give him..... Where's he?''
''He's gone'' I said and he walked over to me and hugged me
"Am so sorry about this cami. I promise to treat his fuck up any time I see him okay?" He asked and I just nodded
I have had so many quarrels with different people, but this one was different.
His behavior alone was so different- calm and nice
I liked it when he said the words he said in his wonderful very voice
I'm Inlove.
********
"Fire!!" was the scream that woke me from my mysterious yet lovely dream and that got me jumping from the bed instantly.
Fire and being tied up are the two things that I'm mostly afraid of in my life, they are my weakness.
Without a second warning I ran downstairs, but there was no fire and there was no sign of anyone in the living room.
The voice I heard sounded so much like mateo's.
I quickly headed for the front door thinking the fire was outside only to see Lincoln, mateo and Ryan smiling at me sheepishly- No fire
"Happy graduation camila!" They all yelled and I stared at them like they were crazy people.
"Oka..... y. I heard that two days ago. Can someone explain to me what's going on here?" I asked not realizing that I was just in the panties and crop top that I had slept with last night.
Grayson walked out of the trees he had obviously been hiding behind and my mouth fell wide open in surprise
I quickly ran to him and jumped in him, hugging him tightly.
"Daddy!!" I squealed like a two year old
He laughed as he twirled me around and finally placed me down
"How is my little princess doing?"
"Your little princess is gonna be starting college tomorrow"
"That doesn't make you matured yet or have you grown past the level of staying awake all night and watching TV?" He asked and I went mute
"Oh! I thought so too. You haven't. So you're still my little princess and daddy got his little princess a gift" he said dangling a car key in the air
"Oh my God. Are you kidding?"
"Nop" he said as he handed me the keys
"Which of them?" I squealed happily looking between the three new cars he had come back with.
A hummer jeep, a Rolls Royce phantom and a sequoia.
"Find out yourself" he said and I nodded
I pressed the button of the car key and the white rolls Royce phantom beep
"Thank you so much daddy" I squealed as I gave him a really tight hug
"Sorry I couldn't make it to your graduation party, daddy had a lot of work to do"
"It's okay dad. I...." I was cut short when his phone rang.
"Sorry honey. Gat to take this call. We'll talk later" he said and gave me a quick peck on the cheek before walking into the house.
''Look who now owns a car'' mateo teased and I walked over to him angrily and gave him a hard punch on his chest making him wince.
''Ouch..... What was that for?'''
''You almost scared me to death. Why did you have to yell fire?''
''That was the only way to get you here ASAP, duh''
''Well there could be other ways''
''Like?''
''Go fuck yourself" I cursed
"Was that what I was supposed to yell?" He asked and Lincoln smacked him hard on the back of his head because of his stupidity.
"You will never learn" be said to mateo and turned to me
"And you go change"
That was the moment I realize what I was wearing and my cheeks flushed in embarrassment.
I turned to Ryan and saw him putting on an evil smirk
"Devil!" I yelled as I ran back into the house.
*********
"Wake up sleepy head" Ryan's voice interrupted my mysterious but yet again lovely dream making me groan
I opened my eyes and turning to the other side of the bed I saw Ryan staring at me from his room, still in his night robe
That is how close our houses are, even our rooms.
It was just a little space in between and one could even jump into the next room through the two windows
"whats the time?"
"Twenty five minutes past six"
"Breakfast is in seven and I still have 10 minutes to sleep because I only take thirty minutes to get dressed so fuck off" I said trying to get some sleep
"If you hadn't done your movie marathon last night again you would have woke up early" he said and still speaking won't help me to sleep.
"Leave me alone"
"I'm your friend, you fool. I can't leave you alone"
"You are such a pest"
"Whatever. Just get your lazy ass out of that bed" he said and I removed the duvet from my body and got off the bed
"Alright. Let me see to that" I said as I walked over to the window and closed the drapes making it impossible for him to see me.
I fell back on the bed and just when I was about to drift into sleep again Lincoln's voice came up.
"Cam are you still asleep?" He asked from downstairs.
"Oh God!" I grumbled before shouting a "no"
"Get dressed and come downstairs for breakfast in time. You wouldn't want to be late on your first day in college"
"Can I skip school today? It's the first day and it's gonna be boring
"You're talking nonsense. Freshen your bad breath and come downstairs" he yelled and I rolled my eyes.
*******
I finished bathing and dressed up in a glittering pink top and a mini skirt that ended few inches below my butt
I wore my baby pink canvas and headed downstairs for breakfast
"Good morning" I said to Lincoln who stood by the front door texting someone
"Morning. Where are you going with that?" he asked referring to the clothes I was putting on.
"I thought I was starting college today"
"In those?"
"What's wrong with them?"
"Cam go and change into something more appropriate. You can't go out with that"
"Good morning princess" mateo said as he pecked my cheeks coming down from the stairs.
"Morning mateo" I replied
"Mateo can you please tell tour sister to go change what she's wearing?" Lincoln asked.
"Is anything wrong with what I'm wearing?" I asked mateo
"Ermm.... I think the skirt is a bit too short. You should change it. College boys are bad" he whispered the last part in my ears and I chuckled.
I turned back to Lincoln and he gave me a knowing look so I had no other option than to go and change.
Going back into my room I replaced the mini skirt with a rugged trouser and the pink glittery top with a blue mohair cardigan that stopped half way my stomach, showing a bit of my tummy
I removed the ribbon on my hair making it fall down on my shoulders
I changed my baby pink canvas into a white and blue sneakers before heading downstairs.
When I got to the dinning room I saw my dad, Lincoln and mateo already sitted about to start eating
"Good morning dad" I said giving him a side hug before going to sit beside mateo
"Good morning angel. How was your night?"
"Not so bad"
When we were done eating I went upstairs to my room to get my things
My backpack was stuffed with things so I took one of my cross bag instead
"Cami!!" I heard Ryan yell from downstairs.
"Coming!" I yelled back and after hanging my cross bag across my neck I ran downstairs.
"Damn! You look like a bad girl" Ryan whispers to me as we head out of the house.
"A bad girl without nerves" I scoffed
"Have you got any book in there?" He asked pointing at my cross bag
"Nop. Just my jolter. I don't plan on writing anything today"
"Let's use my car" I added before he could say anything.
"Okay, but I'm driving"
''No, you're not''
''I'm. I am the eldest''
''You're just one year older"
''Still older. The keys''
''Whatever'' I scoff and threw the keys at him.
********
The drive to crystal college was about twenty to thirty minutes.
Ryan drove past the huge gate and went over to park the car at the parking lot
Just as we got out of the car all eyes was pinned on us.
All the students around which was more than a hundred with the way they filled the super large compound stared at us, like we are some kind of movie show
They all stared in awe, with some of their mouths wide open.
It was more like there was a remote pause with the way they all stood still their gaze on I and Ryan
We were now beginning to find it difficult to walk fast with their stares on us.
''Goodness! Why the hell were they staring at us like that?" I asked just when we were out of their sight- inside the hallway
"Maybe because we are new students"
''Comeon. Today is the first day. I'm so sure that there would be so many new students"
"Yeah, you're right. Then it's obviously because we are hot" he said with a wink and I scoff.
"And who told you that you're hot?"
"So many people darling. Intact everyone except for my big head best friend"
"Yeah. I'm never gonna accept that fact even though I know it's true"
"You're such a jerk"
"And you are my friend and friends of the same feather they say flocks together" I said pouting in an annoying manner
He rolled his eyes at me before stopping a boy who was passing by and asked him for the direction to the vice counselor's office.
"Take the elevator to the fifth floor, it's the last floor. The vice counsellor's office is the first on the right" the boy said and head his way.
We took the elevator and stopped at the last floor.
After the meeting with the vice counsellor, we finalized everything and signed the necessary documents before we were given our timetable and luckily for us it was almost the same
We asked for direction from one of the students that came across us to the physics class since that is what we are having first.
"We are a bit early. Thank goodness there's no teacher yet" I said as I opened the door of the physics class and walked in.
"Ignore them" Ryan said to me as soon as everyone's attention was fixed on us again but I couldn't take it anymore
I knew I had to do something to get them to stop.
I walked over to the desk in front of the class, close to the maker board and bang hard on it making most of the students flinch.
"STOP STARING!" I said in a stern tone and everyone turned their attention away from me and continued what they were doing, though some still stole glances at I and ryan
"Thank You" I said before moving back to Ryan.
"You are crazy" he said
"I know" I said with an eye roll
We searched for empty seats but the ones we saw were singles
We finally saw two at the middle of the class and went for it.
We both sat beside each other
"Ryan"
"Yes?"
"I had a weird dream today"
"What was it all about?"
"It was all about the same guy I met at the mall. I call the dream weird because in the dream we were close, so close. We even went out on a romantic dinner date with lights and candles. I even had the dream a night ago" I said and he let out a loud laughter causing the whole class to look at us and quickly mouthed a "sorry" before turning back to me
"You don't believe me? Wait... You think I'm lying?"
"I think you're crazy" he said and before I could reply him the door sprang open and the guy from the mall walked in
"Good morning all"
"Good morning sir" Everyone choroused except for me.
My eyes was wide open yet I couldn't believe my eyes.
"For a concise introduction. I'm Mr jaxon and I would be taking you on physics. I'm sure you all already know the last part" he picked up a maker from the table and wrote *MACHINE* on the board, in big bold handwriting.
He turned to face the class and immediately he did his eyes came in contact with mine.
Holly molly!
He had a surprise look at first but it soon turn into a smirk.
"What is machine?" He asked and several students put up their hands including Ryan, but excluding me
I had little idea and I wouldn't wanna stand up and answer his question in front of the whole class
"You" he said as he pointed at me, taking me aback.
Me?????
"My hands are down" I said and he gave me the *GET UP NOW* look so I had no other option than to get up since the whole class attention was now on me
"A machine is anything that reduces human effort" I said
"Can you please elaborate?" he asked with a smile.
I knew there was something delivish behind that smile.
I looked down at Ryan and he gave me the *GO ON* look and I have him the *I DON'T KNOW MORE THAN THAT* look
"We are waiting" he said and I quickly figured out the perfect excuse
"I need to pee" I said in one breath and rushed into the restroom before he could say a word.
I stood by the door once I was in the restroom so I could hear what they were saying and see what was happening through the small hole on the door
"Anybody else?" Mr Jason asked and this time only Ryan put up his hand
"Yes?" He asks and Ryan stood up
"Sir, machines are any combination of bodies so connected that their relative motions can be transmitted or modified as the screw is nut and turned about a furcrum or pulley about its pelvic. Especially in construction to that is complex, consisting of a combination of moving parts on civil mechanical elements like wheels, lever, etc"
"Very good"
"Thank you sir" Ryan said with a proud smile as he took his seat
I was proud to have Ryan as a friend
How I wish I am like him
"Judging by our past knowledge we can say that......... "
*********
"He did that on purpose. He called me just to make a fool out of me" I kept grumbling as I and Ryan walked down the hallway.
I had spent the rest of the lecture time in the restroom and came out only when Mr jaxon had left the class
Arghh..!
So frustrating
"Cami, I think this is you being ridiculous. That guy doesn't even know you so why would he want to make you look stupid in front of the class?"
"He knows me and I know him too"
"Is this a psycho talking?" He teased and I smacked the back of his head
"Stop talking nonsense. He was the same guy I met at the mall on Saturday"
"The one that destroyed your CD?"
"Uh-hm"kaà
"Wow. It's just your first day and you're in a deep mess already"
"Told ya"
"Since you guys had an argument that day don't you think he would want to get back at you by failing you?"
"I thought so too"
"Babe's you have to go to him. Talk to him and apologize for what happened"
"Hell no!" I frowned
"What do you mean?"
"He wronged me. He broke my CD. He should be the one to apologize, not the other way round"
"Would you want to tell your dad that?" He asked and my facial expression changed into a sad one
"Cami, you just have to do it even if you don't mean it. Do it for your grades"
"Argh! Whatever. It wouldn't be such a bad idea seeing his cute face again"
"Yuck! Don't tell me you have a crush on him already"
"Yeah"
"Ewwwww.."
"Sucks?"
"Yeah" he said and I smacked him hard on the head
"Ouch!" He winced trying to numb the pain.
"Hurts?"
"Yeah" he frowned
"Good" I said and started towards the elevator.
"Meet me at the cafeteria when you're done" he said and walked off
I got into the elevator and got to the fifth floor.
Each door had the name of the person occupying it so it wasn't so hard locating his own.
It was the second to the last office on the left, with a big bold handwriting on it *MR JAXON*
Cool name.
I walked over to the door and knocked on it.
There was no response at first and just when I was about knocking again I heard his deep mascular voice say:
"Come in"
I took a deep refreshing breath before turning the knob.
When I got in I couldn't help but admire the beauty of his of office
It is big and beautiful but of course it wasn't up to the vice counsellor's standard.
Everything was in its place and it made me think of how it will feel like having my own office- crazy thought
"Are you gonna come here or you're just gonna stand there and keep staring like someone that hasn't seen a nice office before?" He asked and I frowned but tried so hard not to retaliate
"Shut up your bush mouth. My dad's office is ten times bigger than this hut you call an office" I wanted to yell at him but I held myself back as I thought of what brought me here.
I wouldn't want to complicate issues the more.
It is true though.
My dad's office at home is very big, thrice as his, just like the vice counsellor's own and his office at work could be used as a hall for an event.
It is very big and spacious, five times the one he has at home and the look is very rich and heavy.
I walked over to hima and sat on the spare chair facing him
"I haven't asked you to sit yet" he said not looking at me as he focused on the stuff he was inscribing in the large note in front of him.
I just rolled my eyes at him since he wasn't looking at me before standing up
"What do you want?"
"I want to make use of your textbook" I said not having the courage to tell him what I am really here for.
I just couldn't bring myself to apologize to me after all he did to me
He scoffs "what happened to the library?"
"I...."
"What do you want?"
"Well I actually came to apologize for how I spoke to you at the mall where we first met" I said and that was when he raised up his head to look at me
"Why?"
"Because I'm a peacemaker"
"Why?"
"Because I thought it was right to"
"Why?"
"That's the reason" I said almost getting frustrated.
"Why?" He asked again and I knew I had to spill out the truth
How he knows that I'm lying, I do not know.
"Because I do not want you to... to give me bad grades because of how I behaved when we first met" I said and he chuckled making me wonder if I said anything funny.
"How old are you?" He asked and I narrowed my eyes at him wondering why he was asking me such personal question when we are having an important discussion
"Eighteen" I answered anyways
"Who's your father?"
"Greyson Levi"
"Is it the Greyson, Levi I know?" He asked but before I could reply he spoke up
"You can go. I don't have any business whatsoever with you miss Grayson"
"It's Camila"I said not liking how the *MISS GREYSON* sounded
He is the first person that has called me that name apart from my workers at home.
"Okay miss Grayson. You can leave now" he said and diverted his attention back to what he was doing before- writing
I gritted my teeth silently before leaving his office.
"Damn him" I gritted under my breath as I made my way yo the super large cafeteria.
It was a handful of students so it was a bit hard to locate Ryan
I was still looking around for him when I saw him waving at me
He had taken a table close to the window and I am glad about that
Going over to him I sat on the second chair, opposite him.
"You like this place?" He asks
"Yeah. You sure know my taste"
"Of course. Twelve years of friendship isn't a thing to joke about" he said and I just shook my head.
That has always being his thing; boasting about our friendship
Plus he is so good at remembering the dates of what has happened or what is gonna happen, but I'm totally the opposite of him.
There was a time I forgot totally about my birthday and it was a huge surprise to me when I woke up to the four guys in my life screaming a happy birthday into my ears.
"We aren't up to twelve years yet"
"Yeah, but we'll soon be. Or don't you remember the date? Twenty fifth of September, two thousand and ten"
Here we go again!
"Ryan our food is getting cold" I said knowing fully well that if I don't change the topic he is gonna start saying our life history to me
"Yeah" he smiled to me as he picked up his cutleries.
He had bought creme brulee for himself and creme caramel for me
"That reminds me, how did it go?"
"What?"
"You know who. Mr jaxon"
"Oh" I muttered almost forgetting that I had gone there.
"He didn't say anything concernong that to me. Just asking me stupid questions and then he asked me out of his office"
"You would have insisted"
"I tried, it's just that he's just so grumpy"
"Anyways I found something"
"What?" I asked and he brought out his phone and handed it to me and looking at the screen I saw a picture of Mr jaxon
He was wearing a white T-shirt with a blue rip jean, giving him that bad boyish look, plus his hair fell on his face covering a little of his dark din glasses and his shoes wasn't so bad
He was sitting on a white couch, one of his legs was on top a brown footstool and he placed a hand on his knee while his other hand was between his legs
Damn! He is damn hot
My mouth was wide open as a result of drooling.
I screwed down and saw other lovely pictures of him with different guyish poses.
"Girl?"
"Wait.... I think I found something" I said as I clicked on his page and saw a little information about him
