Life on campus went on as usual.  I love most of my classes,although some were pretty tough. 
I looked at my opened notes and groaned. Lois, my roommate was eyeing me evilly. Her friends were not happy too. They're all goths and they didn't like me for some reason. They were pissed that I was around. They wanted me gone because they wanted to do some animal sacrifice to pay homage to some dead rockstar or whatever. They wouldn't dare to chase me out since they're freshmen while I'm a junior. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Since Lois was expecting more friends to come, she shuffled to the door and opened it. She kinda gasped and blinked her eyes rapidly.

"Hi! Is this Charlie's room?" Hey, that voice sounds familiar. I craned my neck to see if I guessed right. There, lounging at my doorway was Caleb. He was wearing a white t-shirt under a leather jacket and dark skinny jeans. And yes, he does look like a model posing for an ad campaign. I rolled my eyes.

"What do you want Caleb?" I asked lazily as I continued flipping my notes.

"The swim team is having a mixer. Let's go."Caleb said as he lay on my bed as if he owns the place. Then he looked at the goths who were positively salivating and nodded his head at them whilst smiling that sneaky adorable smile of his. I looked at him and scoffed. Lois actually smiled at him and looked human.

"What makes you think I want to go? I do have stuff to do,you know?" I said rather affectedly. Caleb chuckled and sat up, slinking towards me. He put his chin on my arm. And pouted as he looked up at me, doing a puppy dog impression. Good God, seriously?!

"You know you're 19 right?" I said almost smiling.

"Aww, Charlie. Please come with.. You know how shy I am right? I won't know anybody..pretty please??" Caleb begged as he batted his eyes at me. This boy is just so...urgh!!!

"Oh God, you're hardly shy, you know that, right?...Urgh, fine! I'll go with you! Who knows, I might meet a gorgeous swimmer there."I finally surrendered. Caleb whooped and sprawled on my bed, sighing happily. Then he stopped and looked confused.

"Wait, what? A gorgeous swimmer. Hey, you got one right here. I'm all yours!" Caleb said with a dazzling smile as he posed like an ad campaign model. I rolled my eyes.

"Urgh, you're just a child. Gross!" I said with a grimace.

"Hey, don't underestimate a younger man ok. I know a little something something, you know..go ahead,try me," Caleb said as he moved closer so that his face is a kiss away from mine. My heart suddenly raced and butterflies were committing suicide in my stomach. Each exploding in my tummy, one after another. It took all I had to push him away and pretended to look grossed out.

"Very funny Caleb. Stop being gross! Now get out, I need to change!" I said sternly and narrowed my eyes at him.

"Okay, I'll wait here while you change." Caleb said casually as he lay on his stomach and buried his face into my pillow. Like hell, he would! I took a small pillow and threw it at him. It hit him at the back if his head. He yelped and winced. He looked up from his supposed nap and glared at me. I gave him a don't-mess-with-me look. He groaned as he got up heavily off my bed. He shuffled towards the door and winked at the goth group. They were enthralled.

"Um, since Charlie needs to change, we'll just wait outside ok. Come on, guys!"Lois said with a smile. The goths rushed to the door behind Caleb and got out.

I sighed contentedly and started to change. I do not own any remarkable outfit for a party. I only wear a top and skinny jeans.  So, I took a black wraparound top that I never wear and dark skinny jeans and wore them. I put on some light makeup and a spritz of my favourite perfume and brushed my wavy brown hair. Just then I stopped short. Why am I so dressed up? It's not like I know any of the people there. I basically keep to myself. Whatever. I got my ugg boots and pulled them on. I grabbed my leather jacket as I opened the door and saw Lois and the goths simpering and giggling at whatever Caleb was saying. Girls will be girls, I guess. Just then Caleb saw me. He raised his eyes appreciatively and sauntered towards me. He looked me all over appreciatively. I felt myself blushing under his gaze. The heck..??

"Wow, you look gorgeous!" Caleb said as he came over and gave a low whistle.

"Shut up.." I said, a little embarrassed as pushed him away, rolling my eyes. Caleb chuckled and slung his arm over my shoulder as usual. 

"Let's go gorgeous!" Caleb said as he pulled me along. I felt eyes on us as we breezed along the partially busy hallway. I know we make an unlikely pair.

Outside the dorms, Caleb walked towards his old Harley and handed me a helmet. I took it, eyeing the old rusty metal.

"You still have this?! How old is it?!"I wondered as I put on my helmet. I was a little worried it might break under my hefty weight. It was pretty old.

"Come on, she's not that old. Hop on. It's safe, I promise," Caleb said as he patted the seat behind him.  I hesitantly hopped onto the bike and held on to him. Caleb started the engine and revved it up. The sound was a little obnoxiously loud.

"Hold on!" Caleb said over the roar of the engine. I held on tight as the Harley lurched forward and tore along the road. Damnit Caleb! I held onto him as tightly as I could as the Harley tore on the streets in a breakneck speed.  I prayed so many times to not die like this. Caleb, on the other hand will die by my hands later.
