"Be careful when you're with him..."

"Be careful when you're with him..."

"Be careful when you're with him...."

Why?

Why would I be careful when I'm with him? Why should I be careful around Nick? What's with Nick that I need to be careful for? He seems nice sometimes, sweet and thoughtful though he's lacking of kindness, sympathy and sensitivity.

My professor complimented me about my research. He said he was impressed by my work and I even went well on my oral exam too. I answered great. I was so glad about the result. The book? It was already passed on time. I owe Nick big time for his huge help. Well, I went gift shopping all by myself cos it would be awkward having two frat guys with me. Following me around and I'm sure as hell Nick and Aries aren't that close. They won't help me anyways with picking up what to buy for Tracy so I decided to go alone.

But I found the perfect gift for her.

Tracy and I were already preparing for what to wear tomorrow. She even bought me a pair of bikini since she knows I don't own one. I kept it, in case Penny will do something ridiculous to me. She was hell excited, I could see it on her eyes. I don't really know the exact things Nick and the others prepared for her but I'm sure it's gonna be huge. Of course, it's Nick's little sister. They need to throw her a party. Im excited as well, I wonder how we're going to spend the weekend.

"Trace?" I called out to her while she was folding a dress.

"Yeah?"

I walked closer to her bed and sat down right across her. I handed out my gift to her anyways, I wanted her to only see it and know that it came from me. Her mouth opens when she saw it and she quickly threw herself to me. I hugged her back.

"Savannah, you dont really have to buy me this." She says while pulling herself away from me.

I smiled. "When I saw it I knew it'll look good on you."

She accepts it then opens the box. She kept on smiling while looking at the Tiffany & Co. necklace.

"I don't know how to thank you. Savannah this is too much." she says.

"No. You were the first person I met here. Well aside from finding your drunk brother that night, but you were the nicest person I met her Tracy." I smiled at her.

"Thanks Savannah. I'm sure as hell we are going to enjoy tomorrow!" She chimes.

"Who's surely going tomorrow?"

"You, me, Clyde, Nick, Alec, Penny, Megan, Romeo and Aries." She says. "I told you, close friends."

I smiled at her.

I grabbed my bag with me and headed out of the dorm room with Tracy. She said she was going to ride with Nick alongside Clyde while I was going to ride with Aries cos I promised him and he offered me as well. When we arrived outside, Nick was the first man I saw, wearing a navy blue sleeveless with an imprinted Malibu on it, pair of white board shorts and slippers.

"Place your things at the back." He said.

Tracy went near Clyde as they head close to the trunk bed and placed the her bag down. Nick stared at me then stared at Tracy and Clyde who were getting busy at the truck bed.

"Good morning." He mouthed to me.

I smiled at him.

He gazed at them again making sure they weren't looking. "You look pretty." He mouthed to me once again.

I smiled and dropped my head down a little. I slightly pulled my head up and glanced at Nick who was smiling too.

"Aren't you going to put your bag at the back of the truck?" He asked.
