All Mine
02 | In love with you

It's the first day of college and I'm actually excited to venture into this new lifestyle, I was already up early and dressed for the first lesson of the day. I grabbed my bag and left my room attempting to find my way to campus for my first lesson. I had English Literature and I was absolutely pumped for this class, literature had always been my thing. The one thing I could escape to when I needed especially after hard days at school tolerating Antoine and his monkeys.

I managed to find my way into the class seeing some people already claiming their seats, I never liked to sit at the front or the middle so I found a seat at the back and I settled myself. I pulled my pencil case out taking a pen out and I waited patiently until the teacher came in and started the introduction into our literature course. The teacher finally walked in looking energetic and ready to start the morning, I sat and listened to him introducing the course to us.

The door swung open as I see Antoine walking into the class with his hair messily ruffled to one said. He walked in and the teacher looked at him for a second before continuing to talk, he walked to the back of the classroom sitting in the empty seat beside me. It was at this moment I wished I'd picked a seat at the front of the classroom so I wouldn't have to deal with him.

I decided I wasn't going to even turn my head an inch to look at him, all though he kept looking at me for the first half of the lesson which really started to bug me, I wanted to just shout at him to stop but that would've been rude of me to interrupt my teacher whilst he's talking. So I continued listening and filling in my worksheet that was handed to us to complete, of course Antoine's pen didn't even touch the paper as his eyes stayed on me.

"Will you stop looking at me?" I said abruptly.

"No thanks I'd like to continue staring at your pretty face." He said, I rolled my eyes at him practically choking on the air around me.

"You're very funny, now stop staring."

"I'm serious, I'm like—" He paused putting a hand over his chest, "So in love with you." He said with a dead serious face, I once again rolled my eyes which I seemed to do so much around him my eyeballs could practically get stuck in this position.

As the day continued, I met the sweetest girl named Sofia in my Drama class and she instantly became my friend. I had no friends on campus yet and having met Sofia was already amazing, and the fact we clicked so fast made it even better for me. She even happened to be partnered with me in my Drama class which only made things better, we spent the whole class getting to know each other as the teacher was introducing the course and partnering us off.

I officially wanted to already crawl into a hole once again when I realised Antoine is in two of my lessons, as if this couldn't get any worse. I had English Literature and Sociology, I wanted to just cry my eyes out. Why on earth would I be placed with the most annoying person ever? What did I ever do to deserve this?

I reached my room after a long day at campus when I heard shouting down the corridor there's a party tonight at some club a wealthy student booked for all the new students, I figured I might as well go rather than stay locked up in my room. I grabbed my phone and called up Sofia telling her to get ready for the party and be at my room at six, it was already five thirty and I had half and hour to get ready.

After doing my makeup and hair there was a knock on my door, I opened the door seeing Sofia dressed in a black short dress which suited her petit frame perfectly. I told her to come in as I just finished up my makeup adding the final touches, I was wearing a red tight dress which I thought looked pretty decent on me. After putting my shoes on, Sofia and I left my room and made our way to the party. Luckily it was pretty close to campus which was so much easier for us to get there.

We walked into the club seeing people from campus already enjoying themselves dancing on each other like some hungry animals, I chuckled shaking my head slightly until Sofia and I headed straight for the bar to get some drinks. I went for a whiskey on rocks and Sofia went for a cosmopolitan. We both downed our drinks within seconds, I wanted to have a night to myself without worrying whether Antoine was going to attack me—so I led Sofia into the middle of the club where we both starting dancing, I don't dance or more so I can't dance. Sofia accidentally nudged me making me stumble and bump into someone.

"Whoops, sorry about that." I said quickly.

"We really should stop bumping into each other like this." I looked up seeing Antoine, great, I wondered for a while what he meant seeing as we've literally bumped into each other twice.

"Oh look it's Antoine, no surprise there." The sarcasm rolled off my tongue.

"Oh look it's Amelia, no surprise there." He said repeating my words just changing the name.

"I'm going to walk away now since you're not very welcoming." I turned my back ready to walk away until I felt his hand grab my arm making him pull me back in a fast motion. I'd barely taken one step and he's already trying to annoy me again.

"Dance with me." He simply said, my eyes widen slightly at his words. Was he talking to me? or someone else?

"Why would I dance with you?"

"Because I said so, come on." Before I could protest he started pulling my further into the middle of the club where it wasn't as crowded.

At first it was awkward for me and Antoine just wasn't having it until he pushed my right up against him. We were both a bit tipsy, I remembered how I had told myself to have a good time regardless of even if it's with Antoine. I ended dancing to multiple songs with him and I completely forgot what an idiot he'd been to me previously, and so we danced and drank like idiots but no one really cared because everyone was being just as stupid.

This night I saw a completely different side to Antoine that I had never seen before, he was actually genuinely smiling for once and not annoying the crap out of me. I'd never seen such a cool, laidback version of Antoine and I'd throughly enjoyed the night with him. I pondered on why this version of Antoine wasn't the everyday one, why does he have to be such a jerk everyday?
