"I seriously can't believe you got yourself into so much trouble and on your first day at that" June said laughing loudly, Elaine was too sad to say much, so she just stuffed her mouth with food, as they were at the dinning hall.
"What were the both of you talking about?" June asked.
"Both of who?"
"You and Kyle of course" she said giving Elaine a suspicious look
"Oh please!, it was nothing "
"That's a lie, I know it was something, tell me"
Elaine sighed loudly before saying
"He was just asking why I was sleeping in class, see it was nothing "
"Well that's still something, but you have to admit, he's handsome right?"
"What does that has to do with me? She asked finding June's question ridiculous
"Because you're sitting next to him, you're getting a firsthand view of that handsome face"
Elaine had to face palm herself, listening to June.
"He's handsome right?" She pressed
"You've said it yourself, why do you still want to hear it from me?
"Just say it"
"Fine, he is" she said so that June would let her be, if you really care about his face, why didn't you sit with him?"
"I don't know, maybe it's because he didn't seem so welcoming, she answered nonchalantly, but I guess I was wrong seeing he didn't seem to have a problem with you sitting with him" she added.
They spent spent the rest of their break with June bringing up different irrelevant topics, until it was time for afternoon classes.
Going back to class, Elaine stopped in her tracks,when her eyes zeroed in on the person sitting right behind her, it was Allan, he was resting his head on the table as he covered himself with his hoodie to prevent the sunlight, she just stood there watching him when someone voice brought her back to reality.
"Stop standing there and gawking like a fool"
"I wasn't, she replied sharply before turning to see who spoke, oh Kyle, she said feeling stupid, but he just casually walked to their seat and sat down.
"I should seriously stop staring like that" she said to herself.
The rest of the classes went well, she tried to not get distracted this time around, but then she kept on thinking about the fact that Allan and Gwen were seatmates, and the both of them didn't attend the classes before break.
We're students allowed to stay back at the dorm?, she couldn't wait for classes to end and ask June, so she decided to ask Kyle.
"Um... Kyle" she whispered to have him turn his head slightly at her.
"What?" He asked not liking her disturbing him.
"Sorry, I just want to asked you something" she waited for him to give her a go ahead, but he just kept staring at her and she took his silence as a yes.
"Are students allowed to stay back at the dorm during learning hours?"
"And what does that has to do with what we're learning now" he asked,
"Nothing, I was just curious"
"Are you asking because of Allan?" He suddenly asked
"Uh... No, no it isn't because of Allan, it's because of someone else" she answered frantically
"Who?"
"This guy seriously likes to know everything" she said in her head.
"Gwen" she answered
"Allan's seat partner?" He confirmed
"Yes" she answered not understanding why he kept on bringing up Allan's name.
"Well students are allowed to stay at the dorm, during learning hours"
"Ok, but wouldn't that make them lazy?"
"Maybe, he answered nonchalantly, but students like that are usually already prepared for failure"he added
"Was that supposed to be funny? " she asked herself in her head.
"Bu-
She was suddenly shut up when Kyle placed a finger on her lips,
"Back to class".
That little uncomfortable act left her speechless,
"Was it proper to touch someone else's lips?" She said in her head, her cheeks turning red, she just hope no one saw that, but then Allan and Gwen were sitting right behind her.
At the end of the class, Elaine was already exhausted, she quickly packed her bag and informed June she was already leaving as heading back to the dorm, If she would accompany her, but she was already staying back with Gwen for some time.
