It was already midnight, almost one in the morning and I think Tracy is still at the frat party. She hasn't come back yet and I won't be worried cos I'm sure Nick is there with her. While as for myself, I'm busy reading this book and I'm already half way through after Nick borrowed it a while ago. The only light in my room was coming from the lampshade on my study table and this novel assigned to me is actually pretty good, despite the old English words used on this but it's amazing. I wish I could become one of New York's bestselling authors someday. All of a sudden my phone lights up right next to me and I quickly grabbed it.
A message from an unregistered number: Where are you?
Who's this? I replied.
Nick.
My heart raced and hands went cold as ice in a nanosecond. It's Nick.
How did you get my number? -Savannah
Robert. -Nick
Robert?? Who is Robert? -Savannah
I was kidding! Of course Tracy, who else? R u in the dorm? -Nick
Obviously. Where else would I be? Why? -Savannah
I was smiling and spurting little laughs while I was sending the message to Nick. I know we're both weird to each other. I wonder why he's texting me right now.
Can I come over? Right now? -Nick
Shit.
My eyes widened. Oh my god. Oh my god. Is he going to have sex with me right now? I quickly smelled my hair, it still smells good though. I tried smell my breath, it still smells mint. I smelled my armpit too and it smells fresh. Crap I haven't taken a shower before hitting the bed. I should've taken one a while ago! I haven't shaved too and I think my hair is growing down there and my legs. Oh goodness! Im getting nervous!
Why in hell am I nervous?!
Why are you coming over? -Savannah
You dropped your ID in my car. Now I have to drive it there since Tracy is already sleeping in my room. -Nick
That was the longest text he sent me since a while ago and I... Love it. It's weird I know but I love it. Every time I read his message it's like I'm hearing him saying it. This is so weird. I'm so weird.
Oh. Ok. I'll just be waiting for you to drop by then. -Savannah
Want something to eat? I can buy some midnight snacks for you before I give back your ID. -Nick
I smiled. He's changed. He is changing. He's unfolding a new side of Nick Wilde that Im currently starting to like it. Sweet though still impassive but at least he's showing a little care and thoughtfulness.
Anything will do. Thanks :) -Savannah
Ok. On my way. -Nick
Even on reading his message, I can still feel his coldheartedness.
But gosh my heart just really starts beating even harder right now than a while ago. I'm scared about the fact that he's coming. He's coming over at a time like this. I know he's just going to drop my ID here but why am I all fidgety? Why is my mind so bugged about it? Why am I nervous?
I feel like I can't even breathe right. God, my hands are still cold. I quickly put my hair down and stared at my reflection on my front cam. I look too bitchy. No, I'm putting my hair into a messy bun. I pulled my hair back up again and stared at myself on my phone once more. Longer than the usual. Better.
But I think it's sexier if my hair is down. I hope he'll get tempted by it.
My eyes narrowed.
Why did I say that? Why in hell am I worried of how I look? Why am I thinking about how to get him to notice me tonight? And why the hell am I thinking of doing him right now?
I slightly slapped my cheek to diss that thought. He's just going to drop off your ID Savannah. Don't get too flushed by your dirty thoughts. Don't get your hopes up. But if he motions of doing so, then don't say no. You signed up for this. You want this. I tell myself.
I tried to read again the novel from where I left it but it's no use. I'm just too excited that Nick is coming over. My mind just can't wait to see him even though I've seen him a while ago.
Around fifteen minutes have passed, a knock came by the door. A knock came in my fucking door. Good lord he's here. Oh god he's here. I quickly rushed to the door and exhaled before swinging it open. Nick stands before me and smelled so freaking good as if he just got off the shower but his hair was dry. His got a box of pizza on one hand and a white plastic bag on the other.
