The morning air was crisp and dry, there wasn't a breath of wind to be felt on the skin of the students walking around the campus in no hurry to get to which ever class they were attending, Karah hurried along, she stopped momentarily to dig through her satchel making sure she had all her books. Lord knows that she didn't know that her classes were going to require so many books or she would have applied for more financial help before classes had started. She stood in the middle of the walkway, pushing her hair out of her face and trying to dig in her bag when someone bumped into her causing her to drop all the books she had pulled out of her bag.
"Watch where you are standing FREAK." Karah looked up at the words that stung her deep, she hadn't been called that in years. In front of her stood a beautiful blonde bimbo and her dumb jock boyfriend, who stood behind the girl laughing and encouraging her barrage of insults on Karah. "Don't you know that the 80's called and they want their outfit back? Jeez you look like you walked out of an ad for MTV or some shit." The blonde kicked her book about arithmetic across the sidewalk, which then resulted in a few more people kicking it on accident till it ended up in some bushes. Karah slowly bent down to retrieve her other books, trying to ignore the pair so that they would just go away and leave her alone. "Hello? I expect some sort of answer from slime like you when I speak to them..." Karah looked up at her and glared, "Go bother someone else, I don't have time to listen to your shit this morning." The blonde bimbo's boyfriend started hooting with laughter until his girlfriend looked at him and he stopped abruptly, then proceeded to kick a book across the walk way also, ending in the same result as her arithmetic book. Karah sighed and stood, "Look I didn't start any problem with you, I was standing here trying to figure out my books, and now your bothering me. I didn't speak to you, nor did I look at you. You accidently bumped into me and now your kicking my books around...I should be the one that is upset, not you." The blonde looked miffed, she was still stewing over her boyfriend. "Whatever bitch, if I ever cross paths with you again, I will claw your eyes out. And by the way, the tattoos are simply disgusting. Have a horrible day." The blonde turned and stalked off, her boyfriend running after her.
Karah sighed trying to control the unshed tears, that was pure hatred she had just experienced from someone she didn't even know. She could barely handle it from someone she knew, let alone someone who didn't know a single thing about her. She was really hoping that this school would be better than the city she had grown up in, but her hopes were getting shot down every day. She bent down to retrieve the two book that were still on the ground in front of her, then stood to go collect the two that had been kicked.

Miles walked across campus heading to his fist class. He was the typical small town kid placed into a big city. He looked in awe at the buildings and all the people around. Where he grew up, he was ten miles from the closest neighbor and thirty miles from the closest store. He was so excited to be able to learn everything he could. He was an animal person, so it was his dream to be able to help animals for a living.

He readjusted his book bag as he strode towards the medical building. There were tons of people walking to and fro and he tried his best to find somewhere to walk that wasn't overrun by people. He didn't want to be late so he stepped off the sidewalk to go around the throng of students that seemed to just be stopped in the middle of the sidewalk.

He stepped into the the grass and brushed past a bush when his foot hit something. He looked down and saw two text books. He picked them up and looked around. Trying to see who they belonged too. as he glanced around he saw a girl kneeling a few feet away picking up other books. He scooped up the books and walked over to the girl.

Her back was to him and he knelt down beside her and held the books out. "Are these yours?" He asked her. She looked up at him, her face seemed a little sad. "Karah?' Miles exclaimed. She looked at him confused and stood up. Miles handed her the books and smiled. "You probably don't remember me. We sat next to each other during orientation." He looked down a bit embarrassed. "I have a good memory." He really remembered her because he had a thing for tattoos. He didn't know why, but women with tattoos were the most attractive to him. The fact that she was already pretty didn't hurt either. "So, uh. Are you alright? Do you need me to walk you to class?" Miles grinned sheepishly.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah was trying hard to cry, she was used to cruelty but not such abrasive hatred for no reason. She was shaking a little, and her heart was pounding a little too fast for her liking. She was almost done gathering all her stuff off the ground, the whole time thinking I must have been dropping shit the whole time that girl harassed me ... Not only was she humiliated by the lack of respect the girl had had for her, but now everyone on campus had witnessed it and no one had stepped in. She shoved the last book in when she heard someone approaching her, she stiffened hoping it wasn't the blonde girl coming back to rub dirt in her hair or something. "Are these yours?" She heard a male voice and she almost breathed a sigh of relief then she looked up at him, and when he said "Karah?" that really threw her off. How did he know her name? She would remember a face like his anywhere! Ohhhhhh orientation duhhhhh she thought, "I'm sorry, I was caught off guard a little...had a run in with a bully already...and yes I could use a walk to class...where are you going? Actually you know what...I don't think I am going to go today..." Karah stood and dusted off her blue jeans, and straightened her 5FDP tank top..."I don't think I want to go to class yet, Im still a little upset with what happened, and I am afraid of a emotional break down or something crazy like that..."

Karah laughed, realizing that this cute guy might turn and run for the hills at the mention of a girl going into an emotional breakdown...Shit, just what I needed to say to him, Karah your so stupid...

[Nyther]

Miles relaxed a bit when her face showed a hint of recognition. "A bully huh?" Miles asked. "People are horrible everywhere." As Karah talked about not going to class, Miles felt a tiny twinge of anxiety. He couldn't miss class. Not on the first day. However, as Karah kept talking about how fragile state she was in, he felt he couldn't just take off and leave her. So, maybe it had a little to do with her attractiveness, and less with him being a true gentleman, but he still felt bad leaving her alone. "First days at new places are always a bit much. I've been here a week and I'm still not used to anything. It gets to me sometimes too." He wasn't lying about that. He wasn't used to so many people or so many buildings. He knew ranch life, not a life where cars were everywhere and it wasn't safe to wander off campus at night.

"Tell you what Karah." Miles piped up. How about I walk you back to your dorm so you can relax in peace? Or if you want. I'm a little hungry. You could join me in a bite to eat at the campus restaurant." Miles felt himself blush slightly as he rubbed the back of his head..

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah smiled, which made her eyes light up, she could tell that the thought of skipping class made Miles uncomfortable. She felt bad, she didn't want him to ruin his college career to make her feel better about herself. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek, "Your such a gentleman, and I really would love to go to the restaurant with you. But if you really need to go to class, I can meet you in my dorm after wards? I have no roommate, so we could hang out or something and then go to the restaurant?" Karah knew that it was a bit 'unladylike' to have a guy in her dorm room on the first day of college, but it wasn't like they were going to tear off each other's clothes! She knew that it would be fun to sit and talk to him, maybe watch a movie, she felt a twinge of something in her heart that she hadn't really felt before, which is why she didn't want him to skip class because of her. She wanted to make him smile, and not sad.

Karah brushed a hand through her hair and tilted her head to the side, studying him. She really liked the way he looked, his hair made her want to touch it, and she actually had the sudden urge to lean up and kiss his cheek again. Although this time it might be weird, "Unless you want to then I wont argue with you, but either way really is fine with me. I just don't know where that girl was headed and I don't really want to be in the same class as her...She was awful, made fun of my clothes, and my tattoos..." Karah sighed when she realized that she may sound a bit childish, complaining like she was about a bully.

[Nyther]

She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. His face immediately went flush and he started grinning like an idiot. She mentioned that she would be fine if he went to class. He sighed a little bit. He wasn't a book worm by any means, but he always believed in keeping his appointments, no matter what they were. If he was supposed to be somewhere he would be there. She then invited him back to her dorm after he got out of class. While he didn't consider himself a sleazy guy, his mind couldn't help but wonder. He regained his composure. "Oh, yea. That'd be great. I only have this one class today and it ends in two hours." He said, starting to grin like an idiot again.

She brushed her hair back as she told him where her dorm was. She then talked about some girl that had been a total bitch to her. Miles shook his head. "People are complete assholes. Don't let some dumb bitch bother you. She's probably just jealous that your clothes show off your great..." He trailed off not wanting to sound crass. "Tattoos. They're great. You'll have to tell me about them later." With that Miles sprinted off to class. "I'll see you in a few." He yelled to her as he left. He got to his class just in time. He had a difficult time focusing. His mind kept drifting back to Karah. He hadn't know anyone here and was worried it might stay that way.

Class ended and Miles went back to his dorm to clean himself up a little before heading over to see Karah. He entered the room and threw his book bag on his bed. He picked up some different clothes and laid them out. As he got ready to walk down the hall his roommate walked in. He was a tall scrawny kid from New York. "What's up John Wayne?" His roommate asked him. He called him John Wayne because Miles grew up on a ranch. Miles wasn't sure if he meant it in jest or was trying to make fun of him, but he took it as a harmless joke.

"Hey Jimmy." Miles said. "Met this girl earlier and we're going to hang out at her dorm and probably grab a bite to eat afterwards." Jimmy slapped Miles playfully on the arm. "That's my man! Best of luck to ya. After you get back, if all goes well with her. We'll get a pie to celebrate." Jimmy grinned. Miles looked at him confused. "Pie?" He inquired. "Yea." Jimmy said. "What type of pie ya like?" Miles stared at him confused. "I like, apple I guess." Miles shrugged. "Apple?" Jimmy sneered. "Let's just stick to peperoni." Miles confusion lifted. "Oh," He exclaimed. "A pizza pie." Jimmy looked at Miles oddly and flopped down on his bed and picked up a book.

With that Miles showered and changed and headed over to Karah's dorm. It was just across campus. He got to her door and went to knock, but stopped himself. He straightened his shirt and fixed his hair. He breathed into his hand and checked it. He kicked himself mentally. They're just hanging out, he needed to relax. He laughed a little at himself. He was always calm and collected in most situations. Except when it came to women. He breathed to calm himself and knocked on her door.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah watched Miles as her ran off towards class, she couldn't help but feel a little happy that she had met someone already that was so eager, cute and nice to her. He seemed genuinely happy to get to spend time with her, she almost thought about going to class instead of to her dorm but she decided that she better stay away from classes today, it wouldn't be a good idea, just in case that girl was in one of them. Give her today to forget that I exist and then tomorrow can go on as normal.. thought Karah. She brushed her hair back from her face and walked to her dorm room. She admired the court yard as she went, it really was a pretty campus, even thought Nevada was quite hot still she enjoyed it so far. She got to her dorm and pulled out her key, when she got in she sat her satchel down on her bed and looked around. She didn't know how she had gotten so lucky, a one bed dorm room. Which meant, she was all by herself. She would much rather have it that way, she wasn't used to friends, or sharing space with someone else.

Karah undressed and hoped in the shower, she decided that if they went out to dinner that she might as well look good. She got out, dried off and straightened her hair, pulling out a lacy bra and panties (hey you never know!?) she slipped into them and chose a mid length skirt and a frilly tank top to go with it, on her feet she slipped on a nice pair of sandals. She didn't know if he would like this outfit on her, but it made her feel good about herself. She sat down on the bed and looked around the room, she didn't own much so there wasn't much to do in the way of straightening up the room before he got her. She didn't know why but she was really excited and extremely anxious for him to get here, she really liked him already.

Karah got up off the bed, and put some music on, she thought maybe a little KoRn wouldn't scare Miles too bad if he heard it coming from her room when he got here. She straightened her bed up a little and then she heard a knock at the door. She squealed a little and raced over to get it, stopping herself just short of the door to smooth her hair and skirt and try not to make it look like she had raced the short distance to open the door. She opened it, and smiled when she saw Miles. "Hi Miles. Come on in."

[Nyther]

"Hey there." Miles said as she opened the door. He gave her a hug as he walked into her dorm. He noticed she smelt really good. As she closed the door behind him he looked around the dorm. It looked similar to his, except he only saw one bedroom. "No roommate. Must be nice." He said sitting down on the couch. "My roommate is from New York. He's an okay guy, but I'd rather have the dorm to myself." Karah asked him if he wanted anything to drink. "Soda if you've got it. As long as it's not diet." Miles replied. As she brought him a soda and he took a sip, he noticed music in the background.

"Who is this?" Miles asked. Motioning in the air. "Music I mean. I really only listen to classic rock, but this is alright." He watched as Karah sat down next to him. He took another sip of his drink and set it down. He was trying to push his nervousness down. "So, I'm glad you seem in a better mood from earlier. That girl sounded like she was still stuck in high school. She'll learn soon that life isn't a popularity contest." Miles nervously rubbed the back of his neck. "I guess we ought to get the generic small talk out of the way first." Miles smiled.

"I'm from Thermopolis Wyoming. It's a fairly small ranching town about a mile outside of Yellowstone. Our ranch is mainly for breeding work horses, but we have a few goats and other random animals out there. Growing up I was always around animals, and I saw how much my dad would have to pay the vet every time we took one of the horses in. So I figured become a vet myself so I could take care of the animals myself." Ashe finished, Miles took another drink. He was worried he may be boring Karah, but she seemed to be listening intently. "So," Miles started, putting down his drink. "What about you? Where are you from and what bring you out to Nevada?" He was trying his best to keep eye contact with her, but his eyes kept wandering to her tattoos.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah almost dropped dead when she saw how freaking gorgeous Miles looked when she opened her door, I mean her literally almost had to step over her dead body and drag her back in the room. She had managed to hold on to her heart beat that was trying to punch its way out of her rib cage that she was sure you could see it on the outside. When she handed him his soda, she got one for herself and cracked it open, pouring it over a glass of ice..."I hate the way it tastes straight out of the can, I prefer fountain sodas." She sat down on the bed and looked around when he did, "Yeah Im lucky, I don't really know how to get along with other girls sometimes...I just intimidate them or something...its not like Im going to rip out their eyes or anything but they take one look and say HELL NO."

Karah glanced at her MP3 player that was hooked up to her stereo, "The band is KoRn and its playing the song Blind right now. They are one of my favorites. I listen to classic rock also, honestly one of my favorite bands from that era is Metallica. The only album I didn't like by them was when they tried to keep up with our era, St Anger sucked bad...' She changed the song to In The Moment, "Now if you haven't heard of this band, you need too...they are heavier than KoRn, but I love them. Maria Brink is amazing and if I had half the talent she does...I can only imagine where I would be. This song is called Beautiful Tragedy." She listened intently as Miles told her all about his life in Wyoming, she was enthralled by how amazing it sounded living on a farm. Where she came from...well it wasn't like that. As she listened she had a mental war with herself Do I tell him about my life? Do I let him know something about me that no one else knows? A part of her wanted too, and it was a big part...but the part was scared that if he learned a secret about her that if anything bad ever happened to them...that he would tell someone else. She pushed that thought aside, Miles seemed genuine with her, she shouldn't think something like that about someone who seemed so amazing.

"Well I am from Kansas City, Missouri home of the KC Chiefs. I was born and raised there, I hate that place and I will never go back. I hated my high school, I hated my dad. I ran away from home when I was 14. My father was abusive, my mother didn't give two rats asses about me, hell she doesn't even know where I am anymore. She doesn't try to find out either. I cam here to get as far away from my past as possible, Im not running from it because I know you cant do that. I have already tried." Karah looked off to the side of the room, she hadn't meant to go to such detail about the neglect and she didn't want Miles to see that she had made herself cry thinking about it all.

[Nyther]

Miles listened as she talked about music. She seemed really excited that he showed interest in her tastes. "I do like Metallica." Miles smiled. "I've always been an 80's hair metal person myself. Quite Riot, Poison and the like. Growing up away from big cities, I was always a little behind on the times I guess." He then listened as she told him about her home life and the horrible things that had happened to her. As she finished he noticed her a little sadness in her face. "Hey now." He said moving closer to her and putting his arm around her. "That was then. You've got a whole new start out here. You can be like nothing ever happened." He grinned. He then realized he had put his arm around her. He felt like he was in middle school because of how nervous he felt. He had already done it, though. So he wasn't about to take his arm off of her unless she seemed uncomfortable with it.

"Anyways." Miles started. "Let's talk about something else. How about your tattoos? I've always wanted to get some, but I hate needles. I don't even know how I'm going to give animals shots." He laughed slightly. "The sight of them makes me queasy, but surgical tools don't bother me at all. Weird right?" Karah smiled a bit at Miles aversion to needles, but love of tattoos. "So I've always thought about getting western style tattoos myself. Like the symbol of our ranch maybe. It's a simple star with a 'D' in the middle of it. That would probably be the first one I get. What about you?" Miles scanned her body for tattoos. It was a good way for him to stare at her body without seeming like a creep.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah's body almost melted when he touched her, she hadn't realized that he had stoked such feeling in her, but he had and she didn't want that to leave. Was it crazy to want to be with someone she literally just met? But she felt like she could tell him anything in the world, like she could sit here with him forever and never feel like she missed out on the world. She turned to him and smiled, "You know your right, I dwelled on my past for far too long, I am going to turn over a new leaf, you've helped me see that that is exactly what I should do." She laid her head on his shoulder and breathed in his scent, he smelled good, musky and like wood, if it wouldn't be counted as creepy she would lay there and smell him all day long. She traced a finger around the tattoo on her arm, "This one is for my little brother, he never made it home from the hospital. He was born prematurely, he lived a few days, but that's all the doctors gave him, then he went home." She brought her arm to her mouth and kissed it, "I got to hold him, I got to kiss him and breath in his little tiny baby scent, I miss him. But I know he is in a better place now, and he feels no pain. Plus he would have had to live the life I had...and I wouldn't have wished that on the poor baby. His name was Jameason." She traced the tattoo with her fingers one more time, the other tattoos were just art really...none of the rest had an exact reason to go with them. Jameason's had been the first tattoo she had gotten, and her father had kicked the holy hell out of her for it. The baby hadn't been his, and he hated the sight of his name on her arm.

"If you ever decide to get one, I will go with you. Its not that bad really, exciting really. I will probably need to bring money with me if you ever get one, because when the needle starts up I will want to get under it also." She noticed that he was checking her out a little and she liked that, hell he could have just sat there drooling all over himself at her and she would still like it.

[Nyther]

She laid her head on his shoulder. He let out a little contented sigh. While he was bad at reading people, he felt that Karah felt safe around him. He liked that feeling. He started grinning like an idiot again. She talked about that tattoo of her little brother. He listened as she told his story. Miles never had any brothers or sisters, but could sympathize how it must have felt to lose one. As she talked, he started to get a little homesick. His parents weren't the best, but they treated him good. His mom had divorced his dad to move to the big city of Cody when he was ten, but he saw them both often.

He felt Karah's head get a little heavier with sadness as she finished her story. She then switched up a bit and told him they should go together for a tattoo whenever he decided on one. "I'd like that." Miles said to her. "You'll probably have to hold my hand to help me power through knowing there's a needle besides me." He rubbed her shoulder a little as he talked. "I can handle physical pain, but I can't handle needles. Thought, I'll probably get one when I graduate, if not sooner." As he finished he looked at her again. Her head was on his shoulder still. So he thought she wouldn't notice as he kept looking at her.

They sat in silence for a bit, just enjoying each others company. When Miles pipped up, breaking the silence. "So hey. Are you hungry at all? Why don't we go grab a bite to eat?" Karah tilted her head back and looked at him. His entire train of thought got derailed as he looked into her eyes. Tattoos and beautiful eyes were Miles' weakness. He grinned like an idiot again as he just started into her eyes. He tried to say something, but it's just came out mumbled.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah felt like she belonged right here, tucked up underneath Miles' arm. Was it possible to feel this close to someone already? She decided that it was possible and that her and Miles just had a connection most others never found. She looked up at him and smiled, she laughed when his words came out jumbled. "I would love to go out to dinner with you, how about a movie too? I don't have any classes tomorrow, so I can spend all day with you. I would really like to do that." She watched his face, admiring him, he was very attractive on top of being an extremely sweet guy. She had the sudden urge to touch his face, to feel if it was as soft as it looked. Her hand started to reach up and she stopped herself, what if she did that and he freaked out and she lost their date? Maybe she would wait till after their date...wait was it a date? She hadn't been on a date since she was....well never. She was starting to get a little nervous now, and her hand just sat there hovering in the air while her mind and her heart had a mental war.

Finally she dropped her hand, and looked at the door then back at Miles, "Well, would you like to go now? I don't know of any good restaurants around here just yet...do you?"

[Nyther]

Karah seemed to light up at Miles' suggestion. She mentioned spending all day with him tomorrow and he nodded vigorously. "My classes are over at noon tomorrow." He said enthusiastically. "So we can just spend the day together tomorrow." Miles began to have a mental war in his head with his confidence and paranoia. His confidence told him that she liked him and to make some sort of move. He's lost girls over how timid he was. His paranoia chimed in with she might just like him as a friend and if he makes a move she'll never want to talk to him again. Miles watched as her hand slowly reached up towards him. It hovered over his chest for a second and then went back and rested on her knee.

She then asked if Miles wanted to go now, but she didn't know where to eat. "I don't know of any place either. Maybe we could walk around and find something. It's not dark yet so we have some time." His confidence and paranoia kept battling in his head. They both brought up how she tried to reach up to him. His confidence saying that she was just as nervous as him and didn't want to ruin anything. His paranoia telling him she wanted to slap him for being such an annoying horrible person. He looked down at Karah's head on his shoulder. She was looking up at him with those gorgeous doe eyes of hers, waiting on him to answer her. "Yea, let's head out." Miles started, but somehow his confidence took over at just the right moment. "Right after this." Miles said as he leaned down and kissed Karah softly on the lips. He pulled back and waited to see what was going to happen. His paranoia telling him that he had fucked up big time now.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah's heart burst when his lips touched hers, I mean it literally burst, she gasped a little at the feeling of his lips and at the way her heart felt at that particular moment, and she smiled. She looked at him after he pulled away and she did reach up all the way this time with her hand and rested it gently on his cheek. She traced his jawline with her fingertip and smoothed her hand back over his cheek and into his hair a little. "How about after this?" She then leaned in and kissed him again, this time a little more intense than his had been. Not too terribly bad, that it might scare them both, or that it might lead into something more. She didn't mind fooling around a little, but going all the way, well he would have to at least take her out to dinner tonight, but he would be her first if she did do that. And she wanted it to mean something, she wanted them to love eachother if they were going to do that. Because she had seen what became of people who did that, and ended up with children and then didn't love eachother. She pushed those thoughts out, and pulled back from Miles a little, her forehead was only inches from his. She smiled, and she could feel the heat of a blush crawl across her face.

[Nyther]

Miles was glad she didn't seem to mind being kissed at all. Her eyes remained closed for a few seconds after he drew back. A huge smile fell across her face as she opened her eyes. His eyes met hers and a soft smile spread across his face. She then raised her hand to his face and ran her finger along his face and in his hair. He closed his eyes and moaned softly. She then rested her hand on his neck and, before he could open his eyes kissed him passionately. Their lips and tongues entangled for what seemed like both an eternity, and for barley a second. She pulled away and Miles' eyes stayed closed for a second. He was caught up in the moment. He then leaned in and kissed her again. This time it lasted for a minute or two. Miles pulled back and smiled a huge smile. He wanted to keep going, but they had just met. He wasn't a prude by any measure, but he liked to at least get to know someone first before they progressed past kissing.

He grabbed Karah's hand as he stood up and helped her to his feet. They both seemed a little weak at the knees. She fell forward a little, right into Miles' chest. They both laughed nervously as he kept her from falling. They locked eyes as she regained her balance and Miles softly kissed her again. They broke apart and Miles started grinning like an idiot again. "You keep this up and we're never going to go anywhere." He joked "I'm just an innocent farm boy here. You're the big fancy city slicker. Just taking advantage of lil' ole' me." He kept grinning as he put his arm around her waist as they walked out the door.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah had literally never been this happy, she loved the way it felt when Miles kissed her, like she was the only person in the world at that moment that mattered to him. Their kisses were passionate and filled with longing. She had never felt this way for anyone, in her entire life. "City slicker huh? I guess so, I like the way that sounds taking advantage of a farm boy..' She winked at him and bumped him with her hip while they were walking out of her dorm. She looked around once they got outside, the leaves were turning a beautiful color and air was cool on her skin. She closed her eyes for a moment feeling the sun kiss her skin and she smiled. A date, she was going out with a cute guy. She was so excited she could barely contain herself.

Karah enjoyed walking with Miles, for a few minutes they walked in silence, looking around and enjoying the cool evening breeze. Karah spotted a restaurant up ahead, that boasted it had the best Italian food in the city. "Do you want to eat there? It might be good?"

[Nyther]

As he joked about her being a city slicker, she hip checked him. He laughed as they walked out the door. It was a great evening. There was a cool breeze and all felt right with the world. Miles couldn't believe his luck. He had a decent roommate and had met an incredible girl. As long as he could pass his classes, he didn't see how anything could go wrong. He couldn't explain it, but he loved the feeling of Karah by his side. Having his arm around her as they walked made him feel like all was right with the world. They laughed and talked as they walked looking for a place to eat. Karah would playfully push him as he made fun of city life. In turn he would pretend to get mad when she made fun of living out in the country.

They came upon a restaurant and decided to enter. It looked like a typical Italian place. The hostess sat them at a booth and Miles scooted into the seat. Karah decided to sit besides him and playfully told him to scoot down. Miles smirked and scooted over, allowing her to sit beside him. The place was fairly packed with other students from on campus. They both looked at the menu and talked about what looked good to each other. Miles' paranoia pipped up and told him all this happiness wouldn't last. It was actually right this time, but not in the way Miles thought. They both ordered and sat there acting like two high school sweethearts as they waited for their food.

[DarkStarLove90]

Karah could barely contain herself, her heart was jumping out of her ribcage, she looked around and smiled, they weren't the only happy "couples" there. She wondered about that, she had never had a boyfriend, ever in her life, in fact her kissing Miles, had been her first kiss. She looked at him, studied his face, he was gorgeous, there was no doubt about that, she was mediocre at best. At least that's what she thought of herself. She brushed a hand through her light purple hair and winked at Miles, when she noticed that he was watching her also. She would like to try her best at the whole being a girlfriend thing, she had already told him her horrifying past, not all the details but that could wait. She glanced over as the waitress brought them their drinks, "Another 15 minutes on your food, sugars." She winked at Miles and left the table swishing her bottom elaborately. Karah burst out laughing at the audacity of it and looked at Miles, "Can you believe that? I hope I don't get to be her age, and that desperate that I would hit on a man sitting with another woman..." Karah sat her chin in her hand and studied the people sitting in the restaurant, then she noticed her, she didn't know why she hadn't before, the blonde was staring daggers through her. When she noticed that Karah had seen her, she waggled her long manicured fingers at her, then made a claw. Karah gasped a little and scooted into Miles, she hated to show fear to this girl but she wasn't a fighter and she didn't plan on it either. When the girl stood up Karah's heart dropped, "Are you ready to go? Im suddenly not so hungry anymore..." She asked Miles. Too late though the blonde was at their table and sitting in the booth across from them in a second, she put her hands together fingers laced and rested her chin on it. Looking at them, she smiled a wicked smile at Karah and licked her lips. "Your looking considerably....better than I saw you last."
Karah just stared at her, not sure what to say or what to do. She didn't want to cause a scene in a restaurant, not in a town she just moved to and wanted to start over in. "Look I don't know why you don't like me, but I don't want any trouble from you okay? So just leave me be and I wont talk to you either." The blonde laughed, "Look Im not here to start anything, but just to say that I jumped to conclusions earlier, that wasn't a particularly nice way to greet a freshmen to our Campus. So I am here to formally introduce myself, name is Diamond Jensen. I run this Campus."

They placed their orders and the waitress left. He watched as Karah brushed her hair back and winked at him. Miles was pretty sure he was grinning like an idiot, but he didn't care at this point. He was feeling on top of the world. The waitress then came back with their drinks. She was middle aged, but you could tell she used to be a heart throb. She had blonde dyed hair and fake nails. She hadn't fared well in real life and had to become a waitress. There was nothing wrong with that profession to Miles, but to the woman it was probably a huge step down.

She flirted with Miles a bit as she sat down their drinks. She then attempted to walk away seductively. Karah laughed at her and mentioned how she hope she would never turn into her. Miles playfully grabbed Karah and kissed her on the cheek. "I don't think that's possible for you." They laughed to each other. Soon Miles noticed Karah seemed to get very upset. She was looking at some blonde bimbo that approached them. They exchanged words and Miles figured that this was the woman that gave Karah such a hard time before. He felt Karah tense up and he pulled himself closer to him. He put his arm around her and glared at the woman. She was a typical blonde bimbo. Fake nails, bleach blonde hair and black roots. Miles despised that look. She seemed to be apologizing to Karah and introduced herself. Miles waited to see what Karah's reaction was going to be.
