Chapter 2 - Her

ORION'S POV

I had to be in 17th Margery Street right? I hope I'm not too late . I have had a pretty shitty week and this was just the cherry ontop.

Leaving Princeton was hard but I had to continue my course if I wanted to be a doctor. I needed to start pre-med classes as soon as possible. My dad already enrolled me in Essex.

In Princeton I only did Soccer, astrophysics and French.

My dad had a friend named Billy willows . His daughter too was attending Essex and since she stayed in their house all alone , they gave me permission to stay with her till I finish pre- med . That sounds like forever.

I drove into the compound parked my car near A navy green coloured porche, she has nice taste whoever she was. Hope she isn't bratty .

I took out all my things and headed in , the door was unlocked so I walked in.

I walked towards the living room. The house Scented like chocolate, paintings and upholstery upon the walls . It was decorated old money style , for a moment I liked it .

I walked towards the living room and that was when I saw a heeled boot sticking out the edge of the couch. I went in closer to take a look and then I saw here sleeping on the couch like a doll . I wanted to wake her up but just took her into my arms and decided to take her up to her room myself. I took off her boots and jacket and closed the door behind me.

I then unpacked my stuff and settled myself in the room which she left a note stamped onto the door saying "Your room" .

It was already 9pm so I took a shower and wore my vest and sweatpants as usual , when suddenly I got a call from Max.

"yooooo, how's Essex" He screamed , and it seems like they're out partying again this time , without me.

"ok I guess, I start classes tomorrow" I said closing the door behind me, heading to the kitchen since I felt thirsty.

" Yo , make sure you take it easy on the ladies there orion" Zane called out through the phone . I still can't believe my friends are partying without me .

" You wish . I am a sophisticated Man , I Don't date around" I laughed

"Oh! So what about kayla, keisha,Vivian, Alex,cassie and maddie" josh called out all the names though the phone , i only dated one for a week or so .

I then heard the shower running in her room, sounds like she's awake .

" I wasn't dating any of them i justwanted to have fun , you dicks" I replied as I withdrawed water from the fridge

" More like have pussies" they all burst into laughter as josh spoke "we miss you".

" I know, partying without me sucks" I grumbled

"Tell me about it" He cried

"I will be with you in spirit" i reasoned

" fuck your spirit , by the way is she cute" Max asked .

" I don't know" and then I felt her approaching through the halls .

"I'll call y'all later" I then disconnected the call.

The smell of chocolate and vanilla hit me , the rising sensation from the fragrance was intimidating. Heat started evaporating from my skin , my insides felt warm . Why do I feel this way around her?

" hi" she yawn with a dull voice.

She had beautiful brown skin , brown shaped almond eyes with a glimpse of gold in them I noticed . Her hair was long and curly at the same time which wan tinted bergundy not too bright . Her body shape was slender, any one could seee that through those baggy outifits that she was petite . Height was 5'5 feet , thin eyebrows, a small round nose and thin pink lips . As he approached I could tell that she wasn't putting on any bra beaacuse her nipples pierced the shirt. She was petite but her breast were fuler .

" hi" I replied back sipping the water from the glass quietly .

"So ,how was the rest" I said breaking the awkward silence.

" Good! Thanks for helping me back there. I'm Alora by the way" she expressed warmly.

"Nice to meet you , I'm orion" I responded back .

" looks like you already settled in" she said going for an apple which stood at the center of the counter across me.

" yeah , I came in and you were passed out on the couch so I.." I paused for a moment

"Yeah . sorry about that, thanks by the way for taking me upstairs. I do that a lot"

" so I planned to make some sandwiches, you in" I asked shyly

"Ok" she sounded shy ,Her voice was faint.

" So ? You taking pre-med classes too" I asked as I applied peanut butter on her own slice of bread.

" Yeah, what about you? And Nutella please I hate jelly" she expressed siting on the counter.

" Oh!chocolate and peanut butter , I've never seen anything like that before" I chuckled as i applied the chocolate on to the bread.

" oh really? It tastes amazing, you should try it" I didn't want to spoil her fun saying that I'm allergic to chocolate.

"Nope, I prefer jelly thank you"

"Suit yourself"

" what classes are you taking apart from pre-med Alora ?" I questioned and I just started talking all about how she played tennis, took pre-med classes which were stressful for her . I hate when girls yap , it was my biggest turn off , but for her I would make an exception. She kept yapping and I listened which was strange by the way. I didn't know that I was falling for her silently without her knowing it . I was a stranger but she talked to me as if we were friends and that felt overwhelming but comforting . I like her too.
