Prologue
Brie's pov
I can't believe I am finally here. I was finally here in Nebraska at college. No parents, no so-called friends. I get to start over where no one knows me. It is pretty scary though. I have never been very social. I was one of those girls that just blend in. That no one would notice if I just went away.
I was just plain. I have never had a boyfriend. Guys didn't notice me. I didn't really think I was even pretty. I was just a full figured no body. Maybe coming here will finally give me some confidence. I want to be kissed. I want to go on dates and do normal stuff that every other girl my age is doing.
I have always lived in a small farm town. I knew everyone. Maybe that's why I have always felt so alone. Now that I am in a big city, I have endless possibilities. I walked around campus so I could know where I was going when classes started. I had a small apartment off campus so I thought since I was all moved in, I would come check things out.
I was looking down at the map not paying attention to where I was going when I walked into something. I looked up to see the sexiest guy I have ever seen.
"I am so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going."
"Oh no problem. It's not every day I have a beautiful girl running in to me."
I blushed at what he said. No one has ever said I was beautiful before.
"Well, I guess I should let you get back to what you were doing."
"I am done for the day. Are you new here?"
"Yes, I just moved to Nebraska."
"Oh, you should let me show you this great café around the corner."
Was he asking me out? I didn't want to say no because I may never get this chance again.
"Okay sounds good."
We walked and talked like we had known each other for years. I felt so comfortable with him. We got a table and ordered some coffee. We talked about our families, and what we did for fun. I didn't tell him I was a freshman because I knew he was a little older than me. I really thought he could be the one to give me my first kiss. I just need to play this cool.
Reese's pov
I couldn't believe my luck running into such a beautiful woman as Brie. I wonder what she was teaching. Was this her first year being a teacher like mine?
"So, what class do you teach at the university?"
She looked at me weird than laughed.
"I'm not a teacher I am a student a freshman, so this is my first year here."
I nearly chocked on my coffee. She was a student which means she is off limits. Man, just my luck. I meet a girl that makes my heart race, and she is a student. This was my first year at the University of Nebraska being a teacher. I can't screw it up no matter how much I like this girl.
"So what grade are you in?"
She looked at me and smiled her killer smile.
"I'm sorry but I have to go."
"Did I say something wrong?"
"No just this was a mistake. It was nice meeting you."
I dropped money on the table and left. I know it was a dick move, but I needed to get out of there. I had to get away from her before I did something stupid. This was a big campus I doubt I'd ever see her again any way. Tomorrow classes would start, and I would forget all about her. I had to stay away from this college girls.
I went and got my car then headed home. I needed distance from the campus just in case Brie came looking for me. I pulled up then headed up to my apartment. I picked this place because it was close to the campus. That way if I wanted to, I could walk. Now I'm thinking it might not be such a good idea. A lot of college students live in this complex.
I wanted to be seen as a teacher, and not a buddy. I know I looked young. Hell, half the other teachers gave me dirty looks when they met me. I had to stay away from Brie if I ever wanted to be taken seriously here. I just wish I could stop thinking about her.
