Of course i was late. Traffic was bad, and today just wasn't my day. I had to speed my way round the car lot, racing to try and get to remaining spaces, and failed miserably, leaving me the only available option of parking next to a cafe outside of campus. I edged my way in gently in my brand new car, carefully avoiding the Mercedes and jeep parked perfectly in front and to the rear of me. When i opened my door and got out, my foot was caught in the seat belt, naturally, causing my coffee to catapult out of my hands and splash onto the bottom of my shirt. Why oh why did I have to be cursed with my mothers bad luck?
I'm now thankful there was no spaces in the car park,and that i packed an extra set of clothes just in case i ruined whatever i was wearing. I can just quickly pop into that cafe and into the loos and change. I threw my bag over my shoulder and walked into the cafe. It wasn't very busy, but this was probably due to the fact of it being 8:40 and its main customers would be sitting down in the registration block right now, which is where i should be.
I ran towards the toilets staring at my feet and trying to cover the coffee stain to prevent any un-necessary embarrassment, and then in a split second i spotted a foot. It was too late, i walked into whoever was standing directly outside the toilets, and whoever it was found it annoyingly funny. I looked up to find my anger fade as i saw the most perfect face.
"WOAAHHH someone's in a hurry to get to the loo." He said as i stared in amazement of how un-cannily similar his voice sounded in comparison to his perfect face.
"ye.... Erm i was.... erm... I was ... i erm..." I felt my face redden.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to be in your way, I'll move, I have to get going anyway, I can't be late for the first day of school!" and with that, he left in what seemed like no time at all. I stood there reminiscing over the conversation which has just barely took place. I felt myself go even redder as i realised that i avoided his statement, which would have lead him to think that i truly needed to .. GO. Oh god, today is the worst day of my life. I ran into the girls toilets, and into a cubicle, i changed quickly then ran to the registration building where i was greeted by a lady holding a campus map.
"Quickly young lady, they are announcing class details now"
And with that, i grabbed the map she was handing me, smiled, and walked in. I grabbed the first available seat.
"...And now, those majoring in any science listen carefully because this applies to you"
It was the sound of the head, he was giving directions to a building, and telling us who was going where. I listened to where biology majors needed to go then got up and followed my assigned biology teacher. There was around 25 of us walking out of the building following our new teacher to class, and i was in middle of the semi formed line following the teacher. I felt a tap on my right shoulder.
"OHH its you! Hey I didn't think we'd meet again so soon!" It was the perfect guy from the cafe
"Im Edward, and im sorry for being so rude earlier, and have you changed your shirt?"
He remembered me! And he remembered what I was wearing! I felt a tingle of excitement ripple through me.
"Oh hi Edward, I'm Bella, yeah I changed my shirt, I spilt coffee all over the last one" He laughed that same soft laugh in satisfaction.
"Well nice to meet you bella, I.."
"CLASS! This isn't 'Talk to a neighbour' studies, its biology, now SHUT UP and HURRY UP!"
The excited mumbling and stir of the first day of college quickly faded. If only I had have chosen 'Talk to a neighbour studies' instead of biology, I would be able to talk to Edward all day long.
