Food for thought.

It had been three months. Three months of college. She was smarter, still no friends (her age at least), and she was in better shape (thank you Yoga). She was lounging on one of the couches in The Hub, reading her philosophy book. Her hair was longer and curly, loosely hanging around her shoulders, and she was in dark wash denim jeans and a white shirt with a brown scarf. (November weather). A guy comes in and notices her. She gives him a look that says: "Don't even think about it buddy, I'm busy." She wasn't always like that. She just decided to not be so easy and soft anymore, because when she was, they used and abused her. Besides, she was leaving it to GOD. He sat in a chair in the corner and opened his own book. She stole little glances at him every now and then. Sandy brown/blonde hair, green eyes, red and black plaid shirt with white undershirt, and faded, worn jeans. "Hmm, not bad.." she thought to herself. "What the heck is wrong with you!?! Back to your book missy!" She scolded herself. She turned her attention back to her ethics book. She was reading about the importance of morals when she heard him say: "You like that book?" She turned to him slightly annoyed. " Yes. I find it interesting! Thank you." She turned back to her book. "Hmm. To each is own I suppose." He retorted. She was silent for a while, as was he. His cell phone began to ring and he snatched it up out of his pocket. "Redneck Crazy" by Tyler Farr started playing. Her head turned so quickly she almost gave herself whiplash. He answered the call. " Hey man! No, just doing a little reading. Yes. I read." He laughed then, a hearty, full laugh. If she was a dog her ears would have perked up then. It was a cute laugh. Not sissified, not lumberjack. Good and wholesome. "Yea, I'll text you later, there is someone else here who I don't think takes to kindly to others interrupting her. Yes. A Her. I don't know. Okay. Later man." "Sorry one of my buds." He says as he slides his phone back into his pocket.  "It's okay" she says as she turns a page "Umm.. nice ringtone.." She said offhandedly. "Oh! Thanks. It's a favorite of mine!" She smirks and places the book on her knee. "Mine too!" "Really now! Well what do you know!" He laughs again. She smiles at that laugh. "Yea, I've loved that song since I first hear it!" He nods. "Me too! I crank my stereo UP when it comes on the radio." She nods in agreement. "Oh, Gosh! Where are the southern manners my momma taught me! She'd slap me if she was here! 'Specially in the presence of such a beautiful woman!" She purses her lips together but eventually gives up and smiles. "I'm Trevor." He says extending his hand. "Lindsi" She says in return, shaking his hand. "Rough hands.. firm grip" she thinks to herself. "Nice to meet you, Lindsi" "Likewise to you Trevor." She leans back against the couch as he gets this cheesy look on his face. He has one eyebrow raised and a smirk on his face and says: "So, You come here often?" She smirks back and says: : Nope, just dropped in from Jupiter. My ships parked out front." "YOU are the one that is taking up 6 parking places huh? Shame on you! They will ticket you for that you know!" She cracks a smile and says: "Eh, I'll be okay. I just hope they take Jupitarian dollars." "I don't think that'll work....." He says. "She laughs at this. "Then I better board the mother ship before I get ticketed!" "Damn!" He mumbles. "What? I gotta be home in time for dinner!" She says still smiling. " I had a feeling you were from another planet.. cause your looking outta this world!" He gets that same goofy look on his face. She laughs out loud this time. "Okay, so that was bad. Really, Really bad." "But it made you laugh"  "That it did that it did!" She begins to gather her things. "So you were SERIOUS about boarding the mother ship!?" He stands as she finishes closing her bag. "Okay, So I'm not an alien, I'm not from Jupiter, and I'm only occupying one parking spot. You got me!" He chuckles as she slings her bag over her shoulder. "Would you be brave enough to view and help me find my mothership?" She does the star wars/ trek fingers. "I do come in peace" "I would love too." He says as they exit out into the chilly day.

I Just Can't Take My Eyes Off You.

She wakes, wrapped up in the blanket, and his arms. She laughs silently, as she looks to her left and sees him. Asleep. It was weird waking up before him. It is usually the guy that watches the girl sleep. She was very thankful she was awake before him now. She flashes back to a picture her mom took of her asleep one Christmas morning. "Eck." She thinks. She looks down at his arms wrapped around her bare torso, and begins to wiggle out of them. As soon as she is almost out, they tighten back around her and pull her to him closely. "Ah, ah, ah ma'am!" "How long have you been awake?" "Just where do you think you are going?" She snuggles closer to him. He was warm. "Nowhere now." "That's what I thought." She smirks. "I could get up if I wanted to." "Try. I dare you." He tells her. "Okay." She lifts to get up but his arms are locked too tight around her. He pulls her on top of him and locks his arm around her. "Looks like your caught." She smiles and kisses him. "How unfortunate for me."

Fast Cars & Freedom

She was hunched over some homework, in what was called "The Hub". It was an area in the back of the TC library. "Ughhhhhhhh." Lindsi turned to see her new friend Collen standing in the doorway. "Are you talk-" She started to say but then realized he was on the phone, well, hanging it up really. "Is everything okay?" She asks him. "Yes, just a friend having some issues with his girl." She turns her head back to her books. "Oh, i hope everything turns out okay." "I'm sure it will, so what are you working away at over here?" He turned up the book to stare at the cover. "Physics. I just don't get it... i didn't in high school either." He smiles. "I love Physics! Maybe I can help you out." He scoots his chair close to her. "Oh, good! Your just beginning! So I can help you without you being lost!" She smiles. "Thank goodness!" He beginnings to explain the Physics to her, and she actually gets it!
Later, shes not sure how much time has passed, but her stomach begins to growl. "Excuse me! I must be hungry!" He checks his phone. "Well, I imagine you are! We have been in here for over 3 hours." "Your kidding! it didn't feel like that long at all! I hope I didn't keep you from any plans!" "Not at all! I was actually coming in here to see if you wanted to grab some coffee with me, when i noticed that confused look." She blushes. "Well, I would love to grab some coffee with you, Collen." "Well, you sound like you need more than coffee Lindsi. How about, Olive Garden? That's my favorite place." "I LOVE THAT PLACE!" She says. "Well, After you ma'am." "Wait! Will your girlfriend be mad about you taken another girl out to dinner?" "Last time I checked I was a single guy.. but lets talk more about that over dinner, shall we?" He draped his arm loosely around her shoulders, as they head out to eat.

The Perfect Love ( I Can Love You Like That)

He walks in as she pulls the homemade pizza out of the oven. She left the door unlocked for him. "Hey!" she says as she sets the hot pan on the counter and turns off the oven. "Hey." He says as he wraps his arms around her from behind and nuzzles her neck. She giggles as he runs his hands down her arms and interlocks their hands. He pulls her into him and kisses her. She kisses him back. "I missed you, Lindsi." He says. She smiles. "I missed you too." He grabs her from behind again and walks like that around the kitchen with her. "Did you already eat lunch on the way here?" She turns around to look at him. "No, specifically for this reason!" He picks up a slice of pizza she just cut. "Well it's good to know you enjoy my cooking!" She says laughing. "I do!" He says as he spit pizza across the kitchen. She laughs again and wipes the pizza sauce off the corner of his lip. "Messy eater, aren't we?" She says as he swallows the last bite of pizza. "Yes, I wonder how you taste?" He attacks her neck, slobbering and kissing and biting all over it as she falls into him and laughs again. "Quiiiiiiitttttt Ittttttt!" She laughs. When he finally quits her neck is covered in red pizza flakes and slobber. "Yuck!" She grabs a napkin and wipes her neck off. "You taste pretty awesome babe." She rolls her eyes and turns back to her pizza. 'Did you just roll your eyes at me?" He advances toward her, and she knows he is about to get her. She runs around him and to the living room where they run around the chairs until he grabs one of her legs and trips her. She falls next to him on the living room floor. "Um, ouch! You butthole!" He crawls over her and pins her to the floor. 'Well missy! Don't roll your eyes at me!" He kisses her, long and slowly. Then helps her up to the couch where they lay together and talk, and cuddle eventually fall asleep. Curled up. Full of pizza. And utterly... Satisfied.

Every Light in the House

The music plays softly, as he gathers her close to him. They dance. Everything fades but him and her. He smells good. She breathes deeply as he twirls her around and then gathers her back to him. Like a classic Cinderella story.

Teenage Dream.

She is busy typing a paper cross legged on her bed when the door opens to the apartment. "Hey!" He yells through the apartment. "In here!" She yells back and he enters the bedroom. She looks down at her shorts and tank top and messy bun. "I know, I look a mess! I wanted to work on this paper, some and don't have class today." He smiles and flops down on the bed. 'What do you have so far?" She turns the laptop toward him. He reads. "That is really good, Lindz." He is the only guy that's ever called her by her nickname.  "Eh, it's okay. It'll do." She smiles and reach's for her coffee mug sitting on the nightstand. She gets a drink and replaces the cup, laying back on the bed. She stretch's as he rubs her stomach. She smiles. "I'm so sleepy! I stayed up late last night!" He grabs her and pulls her to him. She folds nicely into the curve of his chest. He strokes her hair and whispers to her. She wasn't sure what he was saying, she just liked the feel of him and her so close and sweet. She started to drift off. When she wakes he is still there beside her, her laptop is closed and on the desk on the other side of the room. She wakes and cuddles him. He wakes and holds her. She begins to talk. About everything, spilling and baring her soul. He just quietly listens and holds her closer.

Back to You

She walks into the classroom, nervous as any freshman there. She finds a seat in the middle toward  the front. She slides into the seat and takes a deep breath, not sure what to expect. She looks down at her outfit. Dark jeans with a tank and jean jacket. Hair curly hanging in her face. She pulls out a pencil and drums the desk with it. A slender figure approachs her, "This seat taken?" She looks up at a guy (no doubt a frat boy trying to put the move on her) "Yes, my imaginary friend Krystal is sitting there!" She cracks a smile. "Oh! No! I.. Hope i didn't offend her!" He smiles back. "She just moved. Your in luck now! Take a seat." He sits. He smells good. And he's not bad on the eyes. Her brain snaps her back into reality when the door slams and the teacher walks in. Her and mystery boy exchange glances. Class begins. The teacher goes over rules, and passes out books. Gives them their first assignment. Wow, she thought. People who told you college wasn't anything like high school where definately right. Class gets dismissed. Mystery boy, stand as she gathers her notebook and books into her bag. "I didn't catch your name..." He said extending his hand. "Lindsi." She said taking his hand. "Well, pleasure to meet you Lindsi, I'm Collen." They shake and walk out of class together. "Umm.. I hope I'm not being to forward but do you want to grab something to eat.. maybe?" She smiled. "Sure. Lead the way."
