Matt was walking through the busy student lounge when he spotted David chewing on his pen and heavily involved in his text book.
"Hey!" He said.
David looked up. "Hi."
"How's it going?" Matt asked sitting down.
David pushed up his glasses and shrugged. "It's okay."
"You look tired." He said.
"What gave it away, the dark circles or the constant yawning?"
"Long day, huh?" Matt replied.
He rubbed his eyes and nodded.
"Sorry, about that."
David shrugged. "I'll be okay so what's up?"
"I was on the way to the cafeteria and was wondering if you wanted a sandwich?"
David shook his head. "I can't I've got a lot of studying to do before I go into work."
Matt clicked his tongue.
"What?" He scoffed.
"You've got to eat, man."
He sighed. "I will. There vending machines around."
He frowned. "But it's not enough."
David shot him a look. "Better than what they serve at the cafeteria."
Matt nodded. "Point taken as you were."
David grinned. "I'll see you later!"
He smirked and tapped David's shoulder blade and left.
David frowned, he knew Matt was right but he didn't want him to know the vending machine was all he could afford until payday on Friday.
He sighed and continued studying.
Meanwhile Amy was also doing some studying when her only pen ran out of ink.
"Damn it." She muttered.
She searched her backpack for something to write with but was unsuccessful.
She spotted David at another table chewing on his pen and decided to ask to borrow one.
Amy walked up to David. "Um, excuse me do you have a pen I could borrow?"
"Not unless you want the one in my mouth." He replied without looking at her.
Amy was surprised to hear his Scottish accent.
"You're Scottish!" She said sitting down across from him.
He smirked. "Really, I never noticed. Thanks for pointing that out to me."
She rolled her eyes. "Smart alec."
He stood for a second to visit the water fountain.
Amy saw that he was really tall and thin but in a very sexy way.
She eyed him up and down from behind and arched her eye brow.
"Mm, very nice." She smirked.
He came back and she got a good look at his handsome face; his hair was brown and slightly spiked and he had the most gorgeous brown eyes she had ever seen.
She swallowed. "Damn, he's a cute smart alec."
"Now Miss Amy Pond anything else I can help you with?"
He looked at her and was stunned by her beautiful long red hair and full lips but didn't let it show.
"So, you've heard of me, then." Amy replied.
He just shrugged.
"You don't seem impressed." She folded her arms.
"Should I?" He asked.
"Sorry?" Amy said.
"Well, I mean you're no different from any other girl here except you're prettier." He replied.
Amy casually tapped her fingers on the table. "Did you in your own way just call me pretty?"
"Did I just call her pretty?" He wondered.
David did find her quite beautiful and smiled slightly at the idea.
She twirled a strand of her hair. "Well?"
"Maybe." David remarked.
"You're quite the clever clogs, aren't you?" Amy leaned back and grinned.
"Is that a problem?" He smirked.
"Not the way you do it."
He chuckled. "I'll take that as a compliment, then."
She smiled. "What's your name?"
David arched his eyebrow. "Why?"
Amy's eyes danced. "Because I'm pretty sure you have one."
He rolled his eyes. "Of course I do but why do you to know?"
She scoffed. "Seriously, do I have to spell it out for you?"
"If you like." David sighed.
She came closer to him. "I'd like to go out with you."
"Excuse me?" He said.
"Well, don't make it sound like that! I just want to get to know you that's all." Amy replied.
He scoffed. "Why, I'm nothing special. There are plenty of rich guys here. Why not mess with them?"
"Because you're the one I want to mess with." She blurted out.
His eyes widen.
Amy cringed and blushed. "That actually sounded better in my head."
David chuckled and soon Amy was laughing.
"So will you go out with me?" She asked.
He looked at her uncertain; part of him said not to trust her but she seemed sincere and he could hear Addie's voice screaming at him to say yes.
He smiled and said. "Okay, I liked that."
She grinned. "Great so now will tell me your name?"
He chuckled slightly. "It's David Smith."
"Well, Mr. David Smith how does Saturday at 8:00 P.M sound?"
David nodded. "Okay, where do I pick you up?"
Amy sighed. "Clara's going to be having her study group; can I pick you up at your place, instead?"
He smiled. "Sounds good."
She grinned.
He wrote down his address and handed it to her.
"I'll see you Saturday." David smiled.
"Okay, bye." Amy replied and started to leave.
"Oh, and look at your book!" She called to him.
David looked down at his book and saw she had scribbled her phone number on the page.
He leaned back in his chair and smiled.
The air was cool but nicer than the stuffy classroom as Clara walked through campus.
She was reading her new schedule and was not happy about it.
"Homework, studying, class that's all I ever do anymore!" She grumbled.
Unfortunately at that same time due to a torn backpack Matt was attempting to carry everything and Clara wasn't looking where she was going.
Suddenly Clara walked right into him causing him to drop everything.
Clara was mortified and quickly bent down to help him pick up his books.
"Ouch!" Matt exclaimed rubbing his knee.
Clara blushed. "Oh, I'm so sorry!"
He smiled. "No, it's my fault for being too cheap to buy a new backpack."
Clara smirked.
Matt slowly glanced at her and his heart jumped.
Out of all the girls he had ever dated he'd never seen a girl as beautiful as her.
He couldn't help but stare at her medium length chestnut hair and sparkling wide eyes.
Fearing she'd catch him ogling at her Matt immediately moved his eyes to the ground.
Clara noticed his medical school text books.
"You're a med student?" She asked handing him the books.
He nodded as they both stood. "Yeah, I am."
Clara blushed; she wasn't expecting him to be so tall or attractive.
His green eyes were so intense she almost got lost in them.
She cleared her throat and extended her hand. "I'm Clara."
He smiled and shook her hand. "I'm Matt."
Clara smiled at his name.
"Um, that's a very pretty name. I think the Dean has a daughter name Clara." Matt replied.
She cringed, the last thing she wanted was for him to find out she was the Dean's daughter.
"Yeah, what a coincidence." She said quickly.
"So are you a returning student?"
Clara nodded. "In fact I'll be graduating in about a year."
"Yeah, me too. What are you studying for?" He replied.
"I want to be a teacher." She said proudly.
"Wow, sounds great!" He smiled.
"Yeah but practicing medicine sounds so exciting, yeah?"
He chuckled. "Well, it's a lot of hard work but I like it."
Clara glanced at her watch.
"Um, I have to be in class soon. Do you want to go somewhere for coffee, later?" She asked.
Matt considered saying yes but Katie's cruel voice played back in his mind and he dismissed the idea.
"Don't trust." He mumbled.
"Sorry?" She said.
"Well, I better get going. Nice meeting you." Matt said leaving in a hurry.
Clara looked at him confused. "Maybe I'll see you later?"
"Maybe." He replied softly as he quickly walked away.
"What just happened?" She wondered.
She looked down and saw his student library I.D on the ground.
Clara picked it up. "Wait Matt!" She shouted at him but he was gone.
Clara frowned and glanced at it. It had his name and address on it.
She smiled and placed it her pocket.
