"What are you doing here?" It was a stupid question to ask since I know already but that wasn't what I meant. Does she not know 8am is the starting of class or she lost the ability to read too like she lost her sight and slammed into me at the—

My eyes shot read as I remembered. That being said—

"I'll advise you keep shut and let's have a peaceful class." I was stunned into silence, my jaw dropping down to my feet as she rudely shunned me, seating behind my back without any fear.

"What did you just say?" Her insult finally registered at the back of my mind and I instantly gnashed my teeth, my manicured snails trembling at her insolence.

"I said what I said. Moreover you are obstructing my view. If you can please place that butt down, I don't want to have to shout when the class finally begins." Dusting off her brown crop top as if to wipe away the imaginary dust she crossed her arms over her chest and hissed.

I promised myself I won't lay a hand on anyone today being a good day for me, but I was so blinded my rage I dashed forward and my palm could have crashed against her face if the door hadn't been flung aside just in time.

I— wait!

My eyes snapped to the door and I didn't know of my raised hand shot back into its position at my side.

Luckily he didn't speak and just proceeded towards the front of the classroom. I bowed my head with a huge smile as he passed but not without sniffing in the signature cinnamon scent of his like always.

I can remember going for a perfume of such but got rid of it the next day because it didn't smell exactly like he does.

Meaning; every other person will always be a fake, Xander is the original problem. I grinned from ear to ear.

I didn't watch him from faraway at my seat this time around, I cat walked over to his desk with renewed vigor just to spite Anika and make her wonder why she had to come earlier to today's class.

Now that I was low closer to him, and by that mean to his desk, his face was so clear for my vision.

His hair which always looked washed everyday is perfectly styled in the way I like it my men's to be. His chiseled jaw, perfect jawline and heavenly made lips was all perfectly crafted together to make the most perfect face in the world.

Whether he noticed me and closed not to speak I know not.

Mustering up the courage, I coughed out and muttered, taking the bold step. "Sir?" I called onto him.

I don't know what the hell was wrong with me together but I want to get his attention for me alone once and have him speak to me alone once and look at me with that ocean eyes of his, once also.

His husky voice, the one I never get to hear until it was his lecture time, I want him to speak with it to me today, addressing just me alone.

I know that's too selfish but no one said I care.

Rather than speaking, he stopped flipping across his notebook and looked at me.

"I have a request." I was disappointed but still, I flipped my hair across my shoulder, one of my magic effect that never failed to make me fall? Trip on their faces for her.

When he didn't look away I took that as the right signal.

"Your lectures will always be my favorite one so far and the one that always draw my attention from the entire hour, a class I can sit the entire day for unlike the rest. Which has got me wondering whether for my sake, you can have more lectures a week. The once in a week is quit unfair to me and I'm sure to everyone also." My lips ripped up in a secretive smile.

Fuck, I really need a hospital. I'm going out of my mind.

I wanted to hear his response so bad but Anika the beast just had to give one of her stupid laughter that's no different from a wolf's holler.

Yes that's how much she pisses me off.

She stole his attention, his eyes were no longer on me anymore. Which caused me to look at her and throw a shade. "Will you tell us what's so funny ma'am?"

I won't be so surprised if she was hearingy conversation with Xander but she deserves to. If she wants to know what I am speaking with him about then so be it.

"The fact that you're just so pathetic, maybe?" She wiggled one of her brow at me and my hands wanted to clench, but I took the anger on my bottom lip, biting down at it in a subtle manner.

Then the unexpected happened.

"Ms Lorenzo. If laughing is all you find worthwhile this early in the day, it's advisable you have it outside of my class."

Master Xander took my side. My eyes went wide. Oh heavens, was I daydreaming?
