Chapter Nine-The Male Instinct.
Boston U was paculiarly quiet, as Miguel walked around the grounds the following aftrenoon.He passed the fron office, and he noticed Mrs. Campbel in their so he decided to pop in and say hi. He obviously wasn't a teacher's pet, but he did have a liking for Mrs. Campbell and her motherly tendencies.
" oh hello dear." she smiled, as he came in.
" hey Mrs. C."
"well, what brings you hear. I thought you'd be with one of your lady friends."
" no. Just walking popped in to say hey." he said, rummidging around the desk.
"I see," she said watching him skepticlly." so, what of you think of the new girl." she said, knowing he had something for her.
"new girl?"
" oh don't be coy with me Miguel. I know what I know, and I know you like her."
" I don't know what your talking about,"he started" but she is kinda cute though."
" humm." she smiled as she answered the phone." it's the dean, you stay here." she said as she got up and left, leaving Miguel at the front office.He leaned against the desk, until someone came in.
" are you the secretary?" he asked.Miguel remained silent for awhile then replied.
" yeah, I am."he said as he popped in behind, the desk." just taking a break. How can I help you?"
"oh I have these roses for Charity Standish. Can you tell me where her room is?"
" you won't have to do that..." he started, trying to think of how he could get those roses.
"howcome?"
"I'm...Charity."
" yeah right," the man laughed." could you tell me where the real Charity is" they both laughed for awhile, before Miguel leaned over the front desk and grabbed the man closer to him.
" listen.My mom really liked the name Charity, and she just happend to have a boy.Now I don't have a problem with the name, and I hope you don't either if you know what's best for you! now give me the flower's."
" oh," the man started, sweat sliding down his face." he...here" he studderd, as Miguel released his grip.
" nice doing business with you." he smiled, as he sat back down with the roses; watching the man run for dear life.
" to my babe, " Miguel read " from Jhon." he mimicked, as he got up front the cahir and left the front office.Okay, what he did was a tad mean and self serving mind you, Miguel wouldn't be doing this if he didn't truly feel that Jhon wasn't the jerk, he knew he was.He strutted down the hallways.
" here you go." he said while giving a girl a rose." oh aren't you cute have a rose." he said while also giving her one, and that's how he continued, walking down the hallways, giving every girl in sight a rose, until he was down to one.He stopped infront of Destiny and Charity's room knocking on the door.
"oh hey, Miguel." Charity smiled.
" where's Destiny?"
"in class."
" good."
" come in." Charity invited.
"oh I'm not gonna stay for long , I just wanted to give you this." he said as he handed her the rose.
" roses, their my favorite. But how'd you know that?"
" oh I saw it while I was walking. I didn't know what I was going to do with it really, Marcus is more of a daphadil person..." he trailed.
" well," she laughed still looking down at the rose." thank you." she said, as she spontaneously hugged him.
" it's nothing really." he said trying not to smile." anyways I better get going , don't want Jhon to think I'm stealing his girl" 'as if I wasn't.' he thought.
"right. thanks," she said as they both steped away." see you around, Miguel."she said as she closed the door.
" yeah."he said, as he walked off.There was something about her,he couldn't really call on it; but it kind of made him want to be a better guy, not as if he wasn't already.
"I'm back."Miguel said, as he enetered the dorm room.
" okay." Marcus trailed.
"what are you doing?" Miguel said as he followed Marcus' voice.
"not a thing."
"really it doesn't look like it."
" where were you?" Marcus said while changing the subject.
"nowhere."
"I could believe that" Marcus said while looking at him skepticly." so, how's the plan going."
" never said I had one." Miguel said while walking to the kitchen." I just have a real bad feeling about this guy, Jhon."
"bad, feeling that he might the one thing standing in the way of you getting with a girl you might lo---"
" no" Miguel quickly interrupted at the thought of love "I don't trust him, and I really don't know how Charity does."
"I do. She loves the man, hell they've been toghether since they were little; she must know something about him if not all."
" well, then he must've been playing her for the fool for a long time."
" look, I think he's a good guy, and the both of saw how happy he makes Charity.Maybe you should back out."
" I can't Marcus, not when I know there's something up."
"you've always been a good judge of character" Marcus commented knowing there was nothing he could say to make Miguel back off.
" and I know, this guy isn't as great as Charity thinks he is."
"right."

"hey babe."
" hey Jhon."
"so what are what are we doing tonight?"
" that's why I called...I have to cancell."
" what?" Charity said with clear, dissapointment in her voice.
" I'm sorry baby, but you knew I came here to take care of business."
" yeah."she said crisply.
"I got to go, but I'll come see you tomorow."
" sure"
"I love you."
"right." Charity said as she hung up her call and trew it to the other end of the room.
" I'm home Charity." Destiny said as she walked in, and found Charity sitting on her bed obviously pissed." what's up?"
"nothing.Jhon just called off our date tonight, he has business."
"oh, I thought he came here to be with you?"
" me too."
" don't be upset, I'm sure he probably would of been here if he didn't have business to do."
" I guess so" Charity huffed, as she preped to spend the rest of her night at home.On the other end, Miguel and Marcus were getting ready to go to another one of their parties.They started down the stairs of Boston U, as they saw Jhon.
" Hey look it's Jhon and Charity." Marcus pointed out.
"humm." Miguel grumbeled, as he took a closer look."that isn't Charity Marcus."
"stop playing Miguel."
"I'm not. I don't know about you, but I'm more than positive, Charity doesn't have brown curly hair."
" she's wearing a wig." Miguel gave his friend a look." ...it really isn't Charity,but he can't be...must be for something else."
" that's what were going to see" Miguel said, as he and Marcus dashed into a bush close to where Jhon and this other girl were talking.
"so what's on the schedule tonight?" the girl asked.
"well, whatever you want babe.Tonight is all you."she smiled, at Jhon's charm, while Miguel and Marcus looked at eachother as they kept on listening.
"what about that other girl I saw you with?"
"don't worry about her." he said quickly as they left, Boston U's grounds.
"some kind of business..." Marcus started in awe.
"I knew it. Jhon's cheating on Charity."
