CHAPTER 1

Jasmine

"I bet those two have already hooked up". Vanessa flipped her hair from her shoulder and smirked looking at the couple who were having a hot make out section, in the mid of the cafeteria.

I looked at them. At least they have someone in their life. I wish I had a sweet boyfriend like him.

"What are you thinking about, Jas? You look gloomy all of sudden, and that  look". She rotated her finger in front of my face. "That look doesn't suit you."

I smiled sweetly to her, that's my best friend Vanessa and I love her as my dear life. We are childhood friends. Our parents were friends while they were in high school and so I guess the bond between the families transferred between us.

"Nothing just thinking about the assignment, we need to submit it tomorrow, and yet I have to find out something to cover up 6 to 7 pages." I sighed in defeat.

"I know, that fatty said no internet bullsh*t, so we can't copy, paste. Like if, his topics are even available in there." She rolled her eyes.

"No wonder his wife left him, he must have, wasted his whole life to make hell for us".

"Van for first don't call him fatty, he is our teacher. And we need to respect him and that's his personal life, we don't know what he must have gone through."

She smiles. "Whatever". She pulled out her tongue.

I can't help but laugh, she is still a child.

"Okay, let's meet after school in the library and complete the work, good for you?"

She faked a gag. "Studying is never good for me but as I have to throw something on that 14page assignment, I guess I have to deal with it, so yeah, I'm in."

We left the cafeteria. But not before glancing at the happy couple Alex and Noah.

********************************************

The class was way too boring. And like any good thing, bad things also have to end. So now after class Van and I meet at the library and were wandering through the fiction section, forgetting everything about searching for the assignment topic. We were very much distracted by those hot heroes of the new fiction's instead of looking for history of.,.... okie I even forgot the topic.

"Look! Look! This one says it has very romantic and hot fiction on its review". Van was checking the reviews of the book on the internet to decide which one is more romantic.

"And also does have a hot hero, who is swoon-worthy, my my... I'm getting this one". She was semi jumpy with excitement. I laughed at her childishness.

"Good, but it looks like, just like my life I can't find a romantic...."

I can't complete my complaining because there was a loud sound that echoed through the silent walls of the library.

God, what just happened?

Van put a finger on her lips and signaling me to keep it quiet while moving towards the end of the shelf, she was eavesdrop someone talking which I can only hear as some mumbling sounds. After what looks like one or two minutes she came back.

"Look without letting anyone know, we have to get out this library".

"Why are you whispering, is there something wrong". I asked whispering back to her.

She silenced me with her finger on my lips. And took the book from my hand which I was holding and placed both her and mine, on the bookshelf. She succeeded in walking without making any sort of noise and gestured me to follow her which I did and we made it out alive. Definitely, without me knowing what the problem we had it in there.
