Chase Chair wakes up early in the morning in his apartment on his couch. He had just moved in two days before and has boxes in each room, and was too tired to move the boxes off of the bed. Chair quickly ate and got ready. He was excited for his first day of college. He had gotten a scholarship from high school. He was the nerd, A's in all of his classes, always reading a book of some sort. He would also read his textbooks cover to cover, and not just once, but twice. Chase Chair had also studied French and English, and was able to speak the two languages with ease.
Getting to the college, he accidentally scratched someone's car with his car's door. The person was pulling into the space next to him when Chair was opening his door. The man was tall and blonde, also pretty tan. He had on a golden outfit and looked Arabian. The man looked over at Chase and raised an eyebrow.
Chase hurried to apologize. "I'm so very sorry sir! I'll pay for the damage I swear!"
The man held up a hand. "No need. I can see that it was an accident. Besides, it's only a scratch. I can easily fix it myself." The man had a French accent and Chase found himself blushing lightly.
"Oh. Well. I'm still sorry. And if you need me to pay for anything, here's my name and number." Chase grabbed a pen and a small piece of paper from his book bag. He quickly wrote down his name and his number handing it to the tan man.
"Alright. If it will make you feel less guilty." The man looked at the paper. "Chase Chair huh? Well nice to meet you Mr. Chair. My name is Stephano. Stephano Pierre." Stephano held his hand out.
Chase clasped hands and nodded. "Likewise, Mr. Pierre."
"Please, just call me Stephano." The blonde man said, giving a dazzling, pure white smile.
"Only if you call me Chase." Chase said, giving a small smile in return. Chase slightly stared into Stephano's unusual gold eyes. As he realized he'd been staring too long, he blushed and turned down his gaze.
He didn't see the amusement on Stephano's face as he looked away.
"So, Chase. Are you new at Golden Oaks?" Stephano asked, making Chase look back up at him.
"Um. Yeah I am. I'm starting today, I think." Chase said, looking for his schedule in his book bag.
Chase finally found his schedule and unfolded it. Stephano snatched the paper from his hands, making Chase jump. He looked up, a startled look in his brown eyes. Stephano paid no attention and glanced over the schedule. As his eyes scanned the paper, he grinned.
Stephano looked up. "Lucky for you, you have someone to walk with you to your first class."
"You'll walk with me?" Chase asked.
"Of course. I'm in my Sophomore year here, yet I graduated high school one year early."
"Okay. Well thank you. I'll probably get lost at some point anyways." Chase chuckled and grabbed his schedule back from Stephano, placing it back in his bag.
"Come along then." Stephano said, turning and waving Chase forward. "That is, unless you want to be late. The teachers here won't even let you in the classroom if you're late. They lock the doors. It's policy here."
Chase wasted no time, knowing that college was serious business. He readjusted the bag's sling on his shoulder, then his glasses. He stopped to stare at huge building in front of him. It was at least five stories high, all brick, and tan-colored. There were vines sticking to the building on one side, crawling up to the second story windows. People were walking into doors all over the building. Some people were standing around chatting, other's were sitting and reading books. Stephano realized that Chase wasn't walking with him anymore and turned around to find Chase looking up, mouth slightly agape. He walked back to him.
"This building isn't that remarkable, you know. It was only built three years ago." The blonde smiled. "It's quite complicated inside, so I hope you learn quickly."
Chase nodded, coming out of his daze.
The pair headed to their first class, English. They barely made it into the classroom in time, only three seconds before the bell rang. They took seats in the middle of the class and sat down.
"Hello, class. My name is Dr. Darlin." The teacher was female, with a petite body style. She kept her sunny blonde hair pinned back in a bun and had thin glasses placed on the bridge of her nose. "I know that this is something that you would do in high school, and probably something you won't do in any of your other classes here at this college. However, I want each of you to stand, give your full name, and one interesting fact about yourself. This way, I can help you, if you need it, that is."
Each person stood and gave the information one by one. Chase had gotten bored after the third or fourth person and opened his textbook. There were at least twelve people ahead of him. He was so immersed in his reading that he did not realize that it had become his turn.
"Hey!" Stephano's voice, a whisper/yell made it's way to Chase's ears as he felt his arm being shaken.
"What?" Chase asked, almost irritably.
Stephano pointed toward the teacher. His face turned slightly red as he realized the whole class was staring. He cleared his throat and stood.
"M-my name is Chase Daniel Bryan Vincent Zane Camden Chair. Uhm…" He trailed off, face almost beet red now that he definantly had everyone's attention. "I-I g-guess an interesting fact would be that my parents couldn't choose just one middle name for me, so it had to be five instead..." Chase sat back down. When he heard some of the other students snickering, he let his head rest on his arms, trying to hide his face. He heard the seat next to him squeak as Stephano stood.
"Ellos, I am Stephano. Stephano Evan Cesar Pierre. I am a skilled fencer slash sword fighter." As Stephano sat back down, he sat a little closer to Chase. "It is okay," he whispered, "there is no need to be embarrassed."
"Yes there is." Chase hissed. "No one else has such a long, ridiculous name."
Stephano sighed.
For the rest of the day, Chase listened to his new teachers' monotonous lectures. He already felt that his day had gone downhill ever since he had to speak his full name.
Chase walked out of the building about fifteen minutes after his last class. He had gotten lost deep in the massive building. His mood brightened as he Stephano leaning against his car. They waved to each other. "Hey Stephano. What's up?" Chase asked, walking over to him.
"Ellos Chase. Nothing. I'm about to head home. What about you?" Stephano replied.
"I'm trying to figure out if I should head home now, or go to the library." Chase said, grabbing his car keys from his pocket.
"The library? Why the library?" Stephano asked with a confused look in his eyes.
Chase blushed. "Well…I'm a huge bookworm and I love to read so whenever I have free time, I like to spend it at the library." Chase looked down at his feet, blushing bright red.
"Oh. Well okay. I have to go, but I'll see you tomorrow. Good-bye Chase." Stephano said with a dazzling smile before getting in his car.
"Good-bye to you as well Stephano. See you tomorrow in class." Chase said and waved as Stephano drove out of sight.
Chase sighed and got into his car. He figured that he might as well go home and unpack. He did not feel like sleeping on the couch again. He drove home, found the box that had his laptop in it, and set it safely on his desk. He would have to look up his assignments later. Around midnight, Chase had moved most of the boxes and found more blankets. As he lay down to sleep, he sadly realized that he didn't get to continue reading Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare.
