August 2016
Just like that, the first day of my senior year of college arrived. I woke up
with a flutter of excitement in my chest and eager anticipation for what the
year would bring. I splashed water on my face, swiped on some mascara,
and brushed through my naturally straight auburn hair. I didn’t typically
wear much makeup, and for class, I always preferred the bare minimum. I
threw on a large fraternity T-shirt, athletic shorts, and tennis shoes before
grabbing my backpack and heading out of my room.
The apartment was quiet. My two roommates—braver souls than I—
opted for 8 a.m. classes and had already left to start their day. I, however,
was more of a 9:30 girl. I scanned the kitchen for a travel coffee mug and
brewed myself a quick cup, checking my phone and tapping my foot as the
Keurig took its precious time.
After finally getting out the door, I ran to the shuttle bus stop, my heart
skipping a beat when I noticed the doors gliding shut. I hated being late to
anything, and imagining myself walking into a lecture alone and tardy made
my palms sweat.
“Hold the doors!” a voice yelled from behind me.
I turned to see a tall and (from what I could tell) attractive guy running
toward the bus. He passed by me with a smile, charming enough to
convince the driver to reopen the shuttle doors.
“After you,” he said from the step of the bus entrance, motioning for me
to get on board.
Tall, dark, and handsome hardly did him justice. His wavy dark-brown
hair framed a chiseled face with a strong jawline. His deep brown eyes held
a certain charm that was impossible to ignore. He had an effortlessly cool
and confident aura that made my heart race.
I brushed past him while my eyes quickly browsed the selection of seats
until they landed on a small set of two in the back row. I knew exactly who
I’d be sharing it with. I slid into the window seat and watched him walk the
aisle purposefully. I tried not to stare until I noticed his T-shirt.
“Mind if I sit?” He approached the end of my row.
“It feels like the least I can do after you ensured the bus didn’t leave
without us.” There’s an undertone of nervousness in my voice. “Are you
from New York?”
He seemed surprised by the question.
“Your shirt.” I pointed to his worn-out gray T-shirt with the New York
Yankees logo plastered across the front. Even though it looked like it had
been through one too many loads of laundry, it still clung to his body in a
flattering way.
“Oh, this.” He looked down to see what he was wearing. “No. My dad’s a
fan. Are you?”
“A fan or from New York?”
“Either? Both?” He laughed.
“Neither. I’ve wanted to move there for as long as I could remember
though.”
As he squeezed into the seat, his leg rested on mine, and my entire body
lit up. How was it that I felt so attracted to someone whose name I didn’t
know?
He introduced himself like he could read my mind. “I’m Ethan, by the
way. Ethan Brady.”
