A Million People

They are mid into their second year of college at Cambridge.

Nina's POV

We sat in his room doing our college work, as I smiled at his concentration frown. He looked up from his homework. "What are you smiling at Nina?" he asked. I blushed and looked down. Fabian chuckled at my usual shyness.

"Well, you have this certain face when you concentrate. It's adorable, really." I explained, looking deeply into his eyes. He smiled his bright smile that could light up the world. And that's exactly what it did. His smile lit up my world and it was not just his smile. It was the way he walked, talked, everything.

This crush started on the first day of the the school year, which feels so long ago. I remember that day.

Flashback

I traveled into the school yard, where the Upperclassmen guys were throwing around a ball and the freshman hustled through, managing to find some one to actually help them. I searched for Fabian through the crowd.

There he was. HIs dark chocolate hair lightly moving in the air, his smile as bright as ever, his eyes alit. He started walking up to me, with more charm and confidence than ever. A ping of butterflies appeared in my stomach and a wave of shyness consumed me. 'Why am I so nervous? It's just Fabes.'

"Hey Nins!" Fabian exclaimed, hugging me tightly. I could smell his Old Spice cologne, as I nuzzled my face into his shoulder. 'What is this feeling?" I questioned myself internally. "Well, are you going to say hello?" His deep british accent sent shivers up and down my spine, goosebumps popping up on my arms.

"I just missed you,Fabes," I muttered into his neck. He chuckled and wrapped his arms even tighter around my waist. After a few minutes, I separated slowly and looked into his sea blue eyes. There was a certain longinging in his eyes as he was looking at me. I then noticed he wasn't just looking at me, he was staring at my lips! And I started staring at his, wondering what was happening with me.

I backed away and smiled, "First one to the flat wins!"

Flashback over

"Well, I'm glad I can make you smile Nina," he spoke, interupting my daydreaming. I looked back at him, with a shocked face. He shook his head and went to back to his homework. I chuckled. 'I wonder if he likes me?' I thought, hoping he did. "EEEEEEEEEEEEP!"
