Chapter 6:
The next morning, Jason raced to get ready for class. He through his clothes on and grabbed a candy bar, which would have to serve as his breakfast since he had only a few minutes to get to his first biology class. Either he had forgotten to set his alarm or he had been so caught up in his dream about Courtney that he hadn't heard it go off an hour ago. Whatever the cause he woke up ten minutes before class started.
He had finished getting dressed as well as eating the candy bar with six minutes to get to class. Hygiene would have to wait. 'Oh well,' he thought. 'It's not like I'm trying to impress anyone.' As the clock continued to tick, Jason raced out of his dorm, down the five flights of stairs (he figured the elevator was too slow), down the street, and around the corner. He barely made it to class in time. Looking around the room he found his neighbor and newfound friend, Kyle, who motioned for Jason to take the vacant seat next to him.
"Where were you man," Kyle asked.
"I overslept," Jason said with a yawn. "Did I miss anything?"
"Nah," Kyle replied. "The professor got here about a minute before you did."
Before they had a chance to talk further, the professor began to speak. "Good morning and welcome to Introduction to Biology also known as BI-130501. My name is Professor Hill and I will be your instructor. Today, our first meeting, is in our smaller lab group for labs, which meets once a week; all three of these groups combine for the lecture once a week, the lab groups meet again with a TA once a week to go over the material in smaller groups. In this room you will have an assigned lab partner who you must sit with at all times." The professor then went on to name the lab pairings. Jason was assigned to work with a girl named Samantha McCall, and Kyle was assigned to work with a woman named Amy White. Jason met up with Sam and they chose a lab bench in the middle of the second row.
The first thing that came to Sam's mind when she met her lab partner was, 'Wow, he's hot.' She was totally captivated by everything from his muscles to his tan, and she knew that she would soon find herself daydreaming about the man. Sam was thrilled to be working with him and hoped to become more than lab partners one day in the near future. They sat their in silence, as Sam waited for Jason to say something. After five minutes, she realized he wasn't going to say anything. 'He must be the strong, silent type. I like that in a man then again I also like men who are weak and talkative,' she thought.
"I'm Sam," she said breaking the silence.
"Jason," he said. Now that the introduction was out of the way they began to converse. It wasn't that Jason had a problem talking with people; it was just that he hated to be the one to break the ice. Still, the person he felt the most comfortable talking with was Courtney.
The professor had instructed them to exchange dorm info, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses. As Jason was getting out a notebook to write down Sam's contact information, a picture of Courtney fell out of his bag and onto the floor. Not noticing something was there; Sam shifted in her chair and stepped on the picture. Jason felt a surge of pain shoot through his body as Sam desecrated the picture. Although he knew that she hadn't meant to step on it, he was still angry at Sam for doing so. Realizing she had stepped on something she picked it up and looked at it only to see a beautiful blonde.
"Who's this?" Sam asked.
"My girlfriend, Courtney" Jason said. He smiled as soon as he said her name, which always seemed to do that to him.
'He has a girlfriend,' Sam thought bitterly. 'This isn't good.' She needed more information so she could formulate a plan. "Is she here with you?" Sam asked.
"No," Jason said sadly. "She's back in Port Charles. She's a year younger than us."
'A long distance relationship," Sam thought. 'This could work to my advantage.' She spent the rest of class trying to think up ways to break Jason and Courtney up so she could have him to herself.
