𝐈 𝐋𝐀𝐘 awake at the dark hours of the night, slouched in my balcony chair. I admired the celestial bodies, that which are the stars, before me. I had always been enthralled by astronomy, the science behind the physical universe as a whole. However, I never pursued it, I didn't think I was good enough.

I thought back on the interaction I had with that girl at the party. To say she intrigued me was an understatement. She was the first woman to ever pique my interest. It made me feel weird inside, I had never had such a strong attraction to someone like this before. Especially someone who I had met less than a day ago.

'Snap out of it, you're not interested in some measly, hard-to-get girl are you?' That agitating voice sounded in my head. It was almost like a split personality, an alter ego, giving me a reality check.

As much as that voice in my mind told me to snap out of it, I couldn't. I wanted to get to know her. I had never come across a girl like her before, someone who didn't fall for my charm at first sight. Instead, I was met with a disgusted expression and tone, as if I was a piece of gum on the back of a shoe.

I walked back to my bed, slipping into the covers and laying on my back with my arms behind my head. I fell into a spiral of reliving past events in my mind, when I suddenly came to a realisation.

She didn't tell me her name.

𝐘/𝐍'𝐒 𝐏𝐎𝐕:

A loud cacophony of rings resonated through your room, pulling you out of your beauty sleep. You smashed your hand aggressively on your alarm clock, and threw it on the other side.

Blue Lock University. You despised it with every fibre of your being. It was useless, a building filled with students who didn't even want to learn. Not to mention, the classes dragged on, even to the point where you'd sometimes fall asleep.

You pulled yourself out of bed begrudgingly and walked to the bathroom. Picking out a casual outfit, since it was just school, you matched it with your converse, before walking out the door. You had called Akari earlier, telling her you would meet her halfway, due to the fact you wanted to stop by your favourite café.

You waltzed down the pavement, your headphones playing your favourite Mitski song. You finally stopped in front of the café, opening the door which sounded a bell, signalling your entrance.

You didn't spend too much time in there, only collecting yours and Akari's usual order before exiting. You walked for 2 minutes longer, until you saw a female dressed in a baby pink top with a white skirt up to her mid thigh, leaning against the wall.

You smiled, holding the baked goods in hand, and set off towards her. She looked up from her phone, making eye contact with you, before bursting out into a loving grin and pulling you into a hug.

"Hey N/n! Did you get me a croissant?" She asked excitedly, as she licked her lips, smelling the sweet aroma emitted from the pastries.

"Yeah I did, here." You replied holding out the bag so that she could take it, although she honestly just grabbed it off you like a wild animal who hadn't eaten in days.

"I love you so much. THANK YOU." Akari exclaimed her mouth full with the croissant as she tried to smile.

"Kari, that's disgusting. Don't talk with your mouth full." You declared annoyingly, it was something that bothered you a lot.

You two set off on your venture towards school, chatting about the most random subjects and occasionally insulting a teacher. You both laughed heartily as you finally reached the entrance of your university.

You let out a deep breath, ready for the tedious day that was to come. You were used to the same old, same old and so there was not much to expect or look forward to when you attended.

Unbeknownst to you, your day was about to become more fascinating than it ever could have been.

11:30 AM

I walked into my criminology class, not looking forward to the first day of the semester. I pulled my headphones out of my ears, sat in my chair and laid my head on the table. I felt so exhausted even though I had slept for 10 hours the night before.

The song playing in my ears tuned out the voice of my teacher. I felt so happy in my own world, away from everyone else. However, that world wouldn't be my own for much longer.

"Class, I've decided to partner you up for a project this semester. I made the partners up based on interactions I've witnessed, meaning you will be working with people who you may dislike, or have not communicated with before. I'll begin to read them out now." My teacher announced in a stern voice.

If only I knew who I was about to be partnered up with.

She began reading out the list, until I heard my name being called out. There was a look of absolute terror on my face as her next words left her mouth in a loud tone,

"Y/n L/n and Michael Kaiser, you two will be working together." My teacher vocalised, catching my attention almost immediately.

"HIM?" I exclaimed unknowingly, obviously baffled at the sudden revelation.

"It's nice to see you again too." I turned around to see him sitting behind me, sporting a cocky grin on his hideous (handsome) face. I twitched in anger, why did I have such bad luck?

I sighed defeatedly, nodding my head towards my teacher, quite embarrassed at my instant defiance. I had to work with the playboy of BLU. All the girls in the class looked at me in collective envy, each of them begging to be in my place right now, which honestly I didn't understand.

For all I care, I just wanted to get the project over and done with. I didn't need to get to know him, right? It was just for this semester and we'd be strangers again....

Oh, how wrong I was.
