Author's Notes: Greetings!! Well, I have three more chapters to add to Marimeia's Crush. This story is turning out longer than I anticipated, and as I write, some scenes just pop out and demand to stay. I find it funny how I plan to write a scene one way and it takes a very different path sometimes to where I wanted.
I currently have two more chapters planned with most of one already done, and I want to have them done by the end of the weekend if possible. ~ Enjoy and let me know what you think.
The trio sat down at a table and were soon joined by Nikki.
"Hey, guys," she greeted as she sat down. "When'd you get in?"
"We just finished unloading the car," answered Jen. "Meia, was already settled in when we got here."
"Your better off than me. I haven't unloaded yet."
"We can help after dinner," offered Marimeia.
"I would appreciate it," said Nikki. "So how was everyone's vacation?"
"Fine," answered Marimeia and Jen.
Kiel started in on his detailed report of his break. Both Jen and Marimeia groaned for they had already been exposed to his tale earlier.
Marimeia settled into her new class schedule. It turned out that she and Kiel were in the same chemistry class and in the same lab section, so they became lab partners. Nikki, Kiel, and Marimeia were taking the required history class but only Nikki and Marimeia were in the same section. They were often in one of their rooms, the floor lounge, or the library studying together.
As luck (or bad luck) would have it, their first history test was the same day as the chemistry test. Nikki, Kiel, and Marimeia sat in the floor lounge quizzing each other on historical facts and their significance, while Jen worked on her calculus problems.
"I love history," commented Marimeia. "I always marvel at the way it tends to repeat itself. Sort of like an endless waltz with the tree beats of war, peace and revolution, but I do hate having to memorize all these dates."
"That's the easy part," commented Kiel.
"For you," retorted Nikki. "I don't think you ever forget what occurred on a given date.
"Easy for him," piped in Jen, "because not much occurs on his dates."
Kiel made a face at his sister, and she returned one of her own.
"I don't think I can cram another fact into my head," said Nikki as she gathered up her books. "I am going to work on my research paper. See you in the morning."
The others bid her goodnight as she left. Jen soon followed Nikki's example and went back to her room.
"Can you explain the Hizenburg uncertainty principal to me again and how it is relevant to the class?" Kiel asked.
"It states that the exact location of an electron at any given moment is uncertain because any means we might use to observe it would change its location," she answered.
"Oh," he said and they went back to studying in quiet.
Marimeia was reworking a problem when she felt a pair of eyes on her. She looked up to find Kiel staring at her.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Nothing," he replied. "Did you know, when you study you get this cute intense look on your face?"
"I think you have been studying to long," said Marimeia as she looked at her watch. "Its one o'clock. I am going to call it a night."
"Me too," Kiel said. "Goodnight. Walk you to class in the morning."
Marimeia consented and went to bed.
