BLAIR
Present Day
“WELL, that pretty much seals my fate.” Vanessa flashes her test, showing off
the red F at the top of the paper. “Wanna come with me to get a drop slip?”
“No. Don’t leave me alone in here, V. It’s only the first test. We can do
this.” My attempt at a pep talk fails miserably. Probably because I’m
simultaneously suppressing a groan at my own hostile red letter. Circled and
underlined for emphasis. As if I needed more than the large D staring up at
me as an indication I hadn’t done well on our first statistics test.
We wait for our classmates to filter out of the large auditorium, and
judging by the grim expressions and mutterings about the evil professor, we
aren’t the only ones who did poorly. A small comfort, I suppose.
So much for my perfect GPA, and so much for winning over Professor
O’Sean. He’s the program coordinator for the accelerated MBA track that I’m
applying to next year. It’s just a hunch, but I don’t think failing his class will
help me get in. College hasn’t been exactly what I envisioned when Gabby
and I planned our futures all those years ago. Actually, that’s too bland a
statement. It hasn’t been all bad, but so far, this semester royally sucks. I feel
guilty for even thinking those words. It’ll all work out. I just need to buckle
down and study harder. Think positive.
Vanessa nudges me while we trudge up the stairs. She leans in to whisper,
“My last chance to ogle the man candy.”
I follow her slight head nod to the back row, which is occupied by three
members of the university’s basketball team. I’d like to think I would have
noticed the trio, built like the nationally ranked athletes they are, even if
Vanessa hadn’t pointed them out each and every class. But the last month has
been a haze of homework and studying. I’m not sure I would have noticed
them even if they’d sat beside me. If it doesn’t involve classes, caffeine, or
sleep, I don’t have time for it.
Their skin tone varies from light to dark, as does their hair color, but each
one is tall and muscular. Decked out in athletic gear, they look like they
walked off the set of a Nike commercial.
The one on the end closest to the aisle has his foot propped up on the seat
in front of him, a black walking boot covering it completely from just below
the knee on the right leg. His arms are crossed over his chest, and the blue
Valley basketball shirt he’s wearing is bunched up around his muscular arms
and pecs. A baseball cap is pulled low so it’s covering his eyes, but it doesn’t
matter—it’s obvious whatever lurks below is as good as the rest.
