[So, in this story, Nat and Allie do not know each other. They're both 21 and in college. In this story, Allie is really popular and has a lot of friends. She's in a sorority and for the most part, everyone loves her. She's dated a lot of guys and has been through a number of break ups. She's super confident and but sometimes, really cocky, and it makes her look super snobby and conceited. It annoys a lot of people sometimes, but they never say anything to her about it. She's really smart and she can be nice sometimes, but not as much as she could be. She actually has a side to herself that no one knows about and she works to keep it a secret, so she really puts on a bit of an act for everyone. Nat, however, is super shy and a bit insecure, but he's really honest about who he is. He's not so flashy and for the most part, he keeps to himself. He has his small group of friends, but they're all guys. Nat is super nervous around girls and he doesn't always know how to be around them. They make him terribly anxious. However, he has had a girlfriend before and they were in a relationship for 4 years, before they split. She was the only girl Nat ever loved. You'll find out what happened with them, as the story goes along. But, Nat is basically a quiet guy, with a lot of mystery. Nat does look a little different. He's a really big guy in this story. He's really tall, thick, and buff, but not too buff, and lean. He has perfect tan skin, beautiful, dark brown, short, flippy, curly hair, his face is a little fat, but defined. He has pretty, sparkling, deep blue eyes, with a little green in them, he has a couple tattoos, and he has pierced ears. Nat is actually really beautiful and super cute to girls, but he doesn't know that. He's super smart and he gets perfect grades all the time. He also likes a lot of things that most people find nerdy and uncool. He also dresses a little nerdy, but it still looks hot on him. He also wears glasses, but he doesn't NEED need them. Also, I really have a thing for pacific islanders, so we're gonna say his dad is Samoan and his mom will remain Italian. I also love Italians. I'll understand if you don't like that, though. Anyway, Allie goes to school at Florida International University, and Nat is coming down there, as a transfer, from MIT. You'll find out why in the story. His friends also go to school down there, so he won't be completely alone. Here's the story. Hope it's decent.]

(Right now, down in Miami, Florida, Allie and her friends are at the beach, sunbathing on the sand, and talking, on a beautiful sunny day, with her friends Kristina, Brionna, Ashley, Shelby, Amanda, Sienna, and Lora.)

Kristina: So, you got rid of another one? *to Allie*

Allie: Yes, I did. I'm not sorry. He was pissing me off. I don't have time for that.

Kristina: Well, quite frankly, I never really cared for Manny, so I don't care. Have you tried NOT dating a frat guy?

Allie: Maybe this time, I will. God, they're all idiots.

Ashley: Who's next on the list?

Allie: Do not make me sound like a slut. There is no list. I just see something I want and I go get it.

Sienna: You have a habit of wanting guys that aren't shit.

Allie: I'm sorry, am I being judged right now?

Sienna: A little bit. I love you dearly, though.

Allie: You act like I can tell, right off the bat, that they're not shit.

Amanda: Does nothing cross your mind, when you're getting to know them?

Allie: Yeah, I don't think I'm really paying much attention when that's going on. But, it's not like I ever have to.

Kristina: That's because guys just throw themselves at you and think with the small head in their pants, instead of the one on their shoulders.

Allie: That is not my fault. If they want me, they want me. I can't be mad at that. Unless I don't want them back. Then, that's when I can be mad.

Shelby: Are you just not tired of having to find a new guy, every 3 or 4 months?

Allie: It's exhausting, but fun.

Shelby: *looks away and rolls her eyes*

Allie: I don't always enjoy it! You think I wouldn't like to have a serious little boo thing, like all of you?.?

Kristina: All of who? I'm single.

Allie: Except you.

Lora: Then you have to be serious about it, Allz. Otherwise, guys are never gonna take you serious.

Allie: Ugh! It's like I enjoy being single, but I hate it at the same time! Why is dick so conflicting?!

Kristina: It just is. No one knows why. Don't try to figure it out.

Allie: Ugh!

Brionna: So, back on the hunt?

Allie: I don't know. I'm honestly thinking about taking a break.

Brionna: Well, good for you. Whatever you decide, we'll support you.

Lora: However, a break might just be what you need. Take a break from assholes for a while.

Allie: You ever just feel like there's no one out there for you? Like you'll never find that perfect person, suited to be yours?

Lora: I can't answer that. I've been in a serious relationship for 2 years.

Brionna: I'm going on 4, with Yordan.

Shelby: 3 with Ryan.

Sienna: 3 with Zack.

Amanda: 4 with Brayden.

Ashley: A year with Andrew.

Allie: Ok, bitches! Nevermind! I get it!

The Girls: *laugh*

Kristina: We seriously need to talk plans for this upcoming retreat, with the school.

Sienna: Where's the trip at again?

Ashley: Hawaii!

Sienna: Omg. Yes.

Brionna: I say we camp out at the sorority house the night before, go to the airport together in the morning, and just make room arrangements from there.

Kristina: Sounds like a plan.

The Girls: Yep.

Ashley: *sighs* Goodbye, weekend.

Allie: Hello, irritating ass classmates and co-workers. *rolls her eyes*

Kristina: I hate Mondays with a passion.

Allie: Doesn't everyone?

Kristina: I hope so.

Allie: I'm hoping my dumb ass ex does not bother me tomorrow.

Kristina: You know he will. Stop playin'.

Allie: Thanks, Kris. *sarcastically*

Kristina: What? I'm telling the truth.

Allie: *rolls her eyes*

Brionna: Let's just pray something interesting happens tomorrow, that'll make Monday bearable.

Kristina: Better pray hard on that one.

The Girls: *groan* Ugh.

(Meanwhile, Nat had arrived in Miami and he's now moving into his spacious new loft home, that his dad helped him find. His living room and kitchen was all done and he's up in his room, putting his books away on his wall embedded bookcase. He gets a call and picks up his cell phone. He sees it's his mom and answers, sitting on his bed.)

Nat: Hey, mom. *shy smile*

Polly: Hi, baby! What are you doing?

Nat: Just moving in. I'm doing my room now. Putting up all my books.

Polly: You got downstairs done, already?

Nat: Yeah. The move-in crew was pretty quick.

Polly: Well, that's good. How do you like your new place?

Nat: It's awesome. Dad did a cool job helping me pick.

Polly: We're just glad you love it. But, you didn't have to pay for everything. We were happy to pay for everything, until you got out of school.

Nat: It's just utilities and cable, Ma. *chuckles a bit* I don't have to pay rent or anything, considering dad owned this property and he gave it to me. Besides, I'm a big boy and I can take care of myself. You taught me how to do that.

Polly: Not too much, though. I still wanna take care of you. That's my job.

Nat: *chuckles a bit*

Polly: No matter how old you get, you'll always be my baby boy.

Nat: I know, Ma. *chuckles*

Polly: Your brother and sisters miss you, terribly.

Nat: *chuckles* I miss them, too. How's Ariel?

Polly: Well, she's walking all over the place now. Me and daddy have to constantly watch her. She almost walked off the edge of the pool yesterday.

Nat: Oo. *chuckles a bit* I'm glad you guys caught her. What about Nalani?

Polly: Well, she swears that if she has to come down there to kick a bunch of girls asses, she will.

Nat: *laughs a little* Again with that?

Polly: You know how protective your sister is. *chuckles*

Nat: Yeah. *chuckles* Is she not at home?

Polly: No, she took off to Columbia already. Alex is at school. Daddy is on his way home from work.

Nat: Oh.

Polly: Yeah. So, it's just me and Ariel. She's bothering the life out of E.T. right now. *chuckles*

Nat: *laughs a little* I bet.

Polly: So, do your friends know you're there yet?

Nat: Nah. I was thinking about calling them later, tonight, or just waiting until tomorrow. I still have a lot of unpacking to do. For here and my dorm.

Polly: We got you the dorm, just in case you don't always feel like going all the way home. Remember that. I know how you like to wear yourself out, with all that school work.

Nat: *chuckles a bit* Yes ma'am.

Polly: Do you know your roommate's name?

Nat: His name is Dylan. I haven't met him yet. But, he agreed to take the left side of the room and I have the right side. I told him I'd be moving my stuff in tomorrow.

Polly: That's good. When do you start school?

Nat: Tomorrow.

Polly: And when do you start work?

Nat: Tuesday.

Polly: Ok. And, do you know what you're eating for dinner tonight?

Nat: I figured I'd whip up some of your pasta. I'm in the mood for it.

Polly: So glad me and Nonna taught you how to cook your sweet butt off.

Nat: *chuckles* Me too.

Polly: You have groceries stocked?

Nat: Not much. I figured I'd do that tomorrow, too.

Polly: Make sure you do. I want you to always keep the kitchen stocked, ok? I don't like my baby going hungry. Please don't forget to eat.

Nat: Yes ma'am.

Polly: And remember, your cousin Malia is down there in Miami, too. She'll be visiting you soon. Daddy asked her to keep an eye on you.

Nat: Yes ma'am. I know.

Polly: Ok. Oh, I just miss you so much more. Now you're even further away from home.

Nat: I'll be home for the holidays. Promise.

Polly: Good. And we'll still be coming down there to take our family vacation together too, ok?

Nat: Yes ma'am. I can't wait to see you guys again. *shy smile*

Polly: We can't wait to see you, either. How ya feelin' right now?

Nat: *sighs* Nervous. Anxious. I hate Miami.

Polly: I know, baby.

Nat: I had to get sent down here to assist with the engineers program, just because I'm top of my class.

Polly: Well, they agreed to hand over your degrees early and all the other perks, too. So, it's not so bad. At least you'll still be graduating with MIT.

Nat: As God would have it.

Polly: *chuckles a bit* It won't be too bad. At least there's beaches everywhere down there. It's always sunny and warm, just like Kauai and L.A. You can surf every day. That's something you couldn't do in Massachusetts. And year round.

Nat: True.

Polly: And you're by a private strecth of beach, so you won't have to go all in public to swim.

Nat: Yeah.

Polly: There's all types of fun stuff down there you can do, honey.

Nat: Still, Miami is hell to a person like me. For God's sake, it's where spring break and Hooters were born.

Polly: *chuckles* I know, baby.

Nat: It just makes me twitch.

Polly: I know. But, at least your friends will be with you.

Nat: Yeah, true. I've missed the idiots.

Polly: *laughs a little* And they've missed you, too.

Nat: Well, I suppose I should finish getting my room set up and get started on dinner.

Polly: Alright, honey. Just make sure you call me before you go to bed, alright?

Nat: Yes ma'am.

Polly: And remember, you can call me every day. No matter what. Me and daddy. We don't want you to feel too lonely down there.

Nat: Yes ma'am. I know.

Polly: Ok? I love you.

Nat: I love you, too, mom. *shy smile* Talk to you later.

Polly: Alrighty. Bye bye.

Nat: Bye.

(They hang up. Nat sighs and finishes setting up his room. He gets half of his large walk-in closet done, then goes downstairs and starts fixing himself some dinner. He makes his family's homemade shrimp alfredo pasta, some garlic bread, and has a glass of wine. He sits at his island and watches videos on his phone, and when he's finished, he cleans up, goes upstairs, takes a shower, and goes to bed.)

(The next morning, he wakes up, showers again, brushes his teeth, combs his hair, runs his hair product through it, shaves his stubble, sprays on deodorant and body spray, and gets dressed. He puts on black fitted denim shorts, a white hooded Henley, and his black/white Vans. He also puts on a white beanie, his black spike barbell earrings, and his glasses. He grabs his bookbag, his keys, and leaves in his private lift that comes up to his living space. He gets to ground floor, gets out, locks up his lift, goes to his garage, hops into his truck, and heads to FIU.)

(Meanwhile, Allie, Kristina, Brionna, Lora, Ashley, and their friend Porscha were sitting in their health science class, bored out of their minds. Nat's friends David, Thomas, Qaasim, Cooper, Cole, Dante, Wade, Kahlo, Danny, Brayden, and Kade had the same class. It was an hour into the class, when someone with a white hooded Henley came into the room quietly, with their hood up over their head. The teacher smiles happily and goes to hug the person excitedly. It's a female professor and her name is Dr. Denton. The class watches them and listens.)

Dr. Denton: Oh, I am so happy that you are finally here! Your mom told me you would be!

…?: *shy chuckle* Hey, Aunt Angel. I didn't know you were teaching this class.

Dr. Denton: Oh yeah! This is me. Do you have this class?

…?: *hands her his schedule*

Dr. Denton: Yipee! *chuckles* Oh, I was so happy to hear from your mom yesterday. I haven't seen her since college. How is she?

…?: She's great.

Dr. Denton: That's good. And everyone else?

…?: Still the same.

Dr. Denton: *chuckles* I don't doubt it. I heard they transferred you here, to help out with the engineering center. Are you excited?

…?: It's engineering. How could I not be? *shy voice*

Dr. Denton: *chuckles* You and your tools. How are you feeling down here, so far?

…?: Anxious. *nervous voice*

Dr. Denton: *worried look, she grabs his shoulders* Oh no. You're alright, aren't you? Your attacks haven't been flaring up, have they?

…?: When I parked my truck. *shy shrug*

Dr. Denton: Oh, honey. *hugs him* Listen, it is ok. Alright? I'm here if you need anything.

…?: *nods*

Dr. Denton: *pulls away and holds his face* You'll be fine. Don't stress yourself out. Listen, have lunch with me today, at 3, ok? I wanna catch up.

…?: *nods*

Dr. Denton: *smiles* That's my boy. *kisses his forehead* The boys are in here.

…?: Are they? I don't wanna..you know.

Dr. Denton: I know. Would you feel more comfortable if I just gave you your work and sent you off to the cafè?

…?: I'd love that and you very much.

Dr. Denton: *giggles and kisses his cheek* Alright. Here. *hands him a few papers* All basic stuff. You got it, baby. *winks at him*

…?: *chuckles* Thanks.

Dr. Denton: You know where the cafè is, right?

…?: Passed it on the way in.

Dr. Denton: Good. Go on, then. *chuckles and hugs him* I'm so glad you're here.

…?: Thanks, Aunt Angel. See you later.

Dr. Denton: See you later. *chuckles warmly*

…?: *anxiously heads for the exit, trying his best to hide his face*

Dr. Denton: Mr. Levi, Mr. Middleton, Mr. Batuello, Mr. Pillot, Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Slater, Mr. Barrett, Mr. Rivera, Mr. Alvarez, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. King. You're all exempt for today.

David: Shy Guy?! *excited smile*

Dr. Denton: *nods and chuckles*

The Guys: SHY GUY! *grab their stuff and run down the rows of chairs, in the lecture room*

Student: Now, hold up. How come they get to leave?.?

Dr. Denton: How about you don't worry about that, Manny?

Manny: And who is this in the white shirt? You said he was a new student. I think it's quite rude for him to just interrupt our class, without so much as an introduction. He just comes in here with a hood on. What the hell is that?

(A few classmates snicker.)

Dr. Denton: Manny, back off and do your assignment! You don't worry about him. Any of them.

Manny: Jeez, just no manners at all. If I interrupted class, you'd be on my ass. Oh, but, wait, I get it. He's your nephew. Special treatment. Cool.

(Someone else comes into the lecture room. It's a woman in a suit.)

Dr. Denton: Dr. Hamilton. Welcome.

Dr. Hamilton: What's this about special treatment?

Dr. Denton: Nothing, really. Manny here, is just being childish again.

Dr. Hamilton: Explain.

Dr. Denton: *talks lowly to her*

Dr. Hamilton: *nodding* Mhmm. Yes, I heard about that. He's finally here? *excited smile*

Dr. Denton: *nods and chuckles at her*

Dr. Hamilton: Excellent! Is that him over in the white, by the door?

Dr. Denton: Yes.

Dr. Hamilton: Great! Mr. Wolff, can I please meet you for a minute?

(The person in the white hooded Henley shyly walks over to Dr. Hamilton, avoiding eye contact with the class.)

Dr. Hamilton: *shakes his hand excitedly* We are just ecstatic to have you here. We've heard so much about you. You're quite the brain up there at MIT.

Wolff: Thank you. *shy voice*

Dr. Hamilton: I assure you, there's no reason to be shy or nervous. FIU is a school where families are made.

Wolff: *nods shyly*

Dr. Hamilton: I'm sorry if it's a bit much, but, could I ask you to take your hood down for me? I just really wanna see your face. *kind smile*

Wolff: *shyly nods and takes his hood down slowly, taking a quick glance over at the class and looking back at Dr. Hamilton*

(Girls in the class gasp and start to mutter, trying to see Nat's face again.)

Dr. Hamilton: *excited giggle* Oh, you're even more handsome in person. It's so nice to have you here. We also wanna thank your father for the advice about our upcoming retreat. It'll be just what you need.

Wolff: *nods shyly* He said it was no bother. *shy voice*

Dr. Hamilton: We appreciate it. And we appreciate you coming down here to help.

Wolff: *nods shyly*

Dr. Hamilton: *chuckles* Well, I'll let you be off. And, again, welcome to FIU.

Wolff: *nods politely, with a kind smile, and heads back over to his friends*

David: Ready to go?

Wolff: So ready. *goes straight out the door, quickly*

David and The Guys: *laugh and follow him*

Manny: What the hell?

Dr. Hamilton: Manny, I'll ask that you don't bother him again. Or you'll be coming to see me. Understood?

Manny: What the- -?! Ugh!

(Meanwhile, up in the seats with Allie and her friends...)
