“Alright, you’ll do it? You’ll tutor me? Or be my study buddy? Or alright, I can date your roommate?”
“No to the roommate.”
“Want me for yourself, eh?”
“No. I meant, no I don’t have a roommate. Only Betsy. You’re welcome to hit on her if you like.”
“Who the hell is Betsy then if you don’t have a roommate?”
Instead of answering, she lets the door swing open and points to the wall where a gorgeous surfboard is mounted and strung with fairy lights.
“That’s funny. My friend actually named his board Betsy too. Do you surf?”
“No. I just like the decor.” I have no idea if she’s messing with me. Is this banter? Flirtation? Or is she deadly serious? She also doesn’t return with an answer to my question, so I plow on, trying to make a connection with this chick. Apparently she doesn’t remember kissing me so hard I thought my dick would fall off before she started yelling at me and stormed off.
I wonder if she’d get mad if I kissed her again. Or maybe I should use this second chance to do things differently. We definitely got off on the wrong foot. I was a bit of a dick to her at times. And although I could charm the pants off any girl if I tried, thus far she seems pretty impervious. “I surf too,” I offer when she doesn’t say anything. “Haven’t found the perfect name for my board yet though. Maybe you can help me with that.”
“Between the tutoring and catching up myself, I think I have my hands too full to deal with your board too.” Her tone is pretty droll but I still chuckle.
“Good one. So you’ll do it then?”
“I said alright, didn’t I?”
“Brilliant!” I wink at her. “When should we start? How about now?”
“You have to get to class.”
“I think you mean, we have to get to class.” I check my watch again and yep, she’s right. We need to get moving.
“I’m not going. I do online learning. For medical reasons,” she hastily adds.
“Don’t you have the prof’s class though?”
“So…?”
“So I’m pretty sure he doesn’t offer a remote learning option. Under any circumstances. He’s a bit of a dick like that.”
“Don’t I know it,” she mutters under her breath before adding, “But he hasn’t said anything this past week so…” She shrugs.
“Oh. He’s been out of town. Today’s actually his first day back. So I guess we both better hurry if we don’t want to be late and feel his wrath.”
“I’ll risk it.”
“Give me your phone.”
“Why?”
“So I can save my number in it, that way you can text me where to meet up for tutoring and stuff.”
“Oh. Well, it’ll just be here. In my room.”
“I don’t think I’m allowed in the girls’ dorms.”
“You don’t strike me as a rule follower.”
“Aren’t you scared to be alone with me?”
“Why would I be?”
