I’m certainly not going back home when I graduate so I’ll need a good job from the start. Hence the computer science degree, well that and I love it.
I wonder what all the guys are majoring in? I know Ajax is in my computer science class with me and the only reason to be in it is if you’re getting a computer science degree. I have no idea what the other four are going for though. This math class could be a requirement for any number of things.

Okay, so clearly I am going to have to step my game up. I can’t believe I’m sitting next to Jay and Jax instead of my sweet mate. I was too distracted by my phone to realize what Jay was doing. I was trying to find out anything about Aly that I can but so far I haven’t found much.
I don’t know many college students without social media but it looks like she is one of them. Right now, I wish there was some sort of magical community database to look her up in because I want to know what she is so bad.
The teacher introduces himself and is going around handing out syllabuses. Everyone is talking so I take advantage.
I lean around Jay, “So Aly,” she turns her attention towards me and I can’t help noticing again how beautiful she is, “do you have a class before this with Jax?”
She smiles, “ya, a computer science one.”
Ah, smart and beautiful.
Jay cuts in, “oh nice, what are your other classes?”
She passes him her schedule and I take a look too. Nothing else with me, damn it. I think she might have a class with Jer but I’m not sure.
That would be awkward, although I’m sure they will stay clear of each other.
Jay starts talking about his classes with her. I look past them and Nic to Jeremy who to the outside world looks bored. I tap into my magic and read his energy. If I didn’t know my gift was always right I wouldn’t believe it because right now he is jealous and pissed off.
I guess the pull isn’t affecting him as little as he makes it seem.
The professor starts droning on again so I tap into Jax’s mind,“So you have a class just you and her?”
“Yup.”Ajax is the kind to actually want to listen in class but I want to know more.
“You could have told us it was her coming with you.” If he had I would have made sure she was next to me.
“Well I assumed she would end up at the end with me if I didn’t, plus I wasn’t going to waste my time with her, texting you guys.”
Sneaky and he has a good point, it would have worked too if Jay hadn’t seen her walking up.
“You could have told me what he was doing”
“Not my fault you weren’t paying attention, brother.”
True, but still frustrating.
I tap into Aly’s emotions, she’s interested, probably in the lesson and a little uncomfortable, probably because of us. I get a jolt of power from that one. It’s tiring to keep it going too long but I remain tapped in to her emotions just to keep an eye on her.
The rest of class goes by in a blur of the teacher droning on, Jay trying to talk to Aly and me stealing looks at her.

Aly
All of these guys are so hot and I’m not sure why they put me in the middle of them. Judging by the sneer Kate Herman has been giving me all class, she’s not sure why either.
That girl hates me, a lot. She’s hated me since we were in the same dorm freshman year. I honestly don’t know why she started her campaign against me. My best guess is that when she came in acting like queen bee and spouting typical mean girl bullshit, I didn’t fall in line. Anna and I just kept away from her and her crew but they didn’t want to keep away from us.
Then I met Jason and we started dating near the end of Freshman year. Apparently he was on Kate’s radar and she felt she had dibs. She got even worse about tearing me down or trying to make me look dumb in front of Jason. One of the things I liked best about him was that he never seemed to buy into her bullshit.
