The rest of the class schedule went on as usual. I was slightly shaken by Ethan's phone call and Peter's recent revelation about (supposedly?) being interested in me. Or maybe I had misunderstood.I still had the scene with the professor to deal with. Sometimes it just seemed like a dream too good to be true. Sometimes it seemed like a dream with a hint of suspense and danger. How wrong could it be?It is late afternoon and I haven't seen him again. Which is not at all impossible since the campus is huge, you can even get lost in the parallel universe of Metropolity University. I spent some time trying to keep my distance from Peter and Loretta. I had a cappuccino alone while reading a romance book in the cafeteria, the one that is a little further away from the in-and-out movement of students. The attendant was very cute and kept looking at me longer than he should have, but I didn't mind.I confess that I like this thing of being desired. At least most of the time. And of course, w

I wait a minute in an attempt not to be too conspicuous and luckily, Klaus goes into the cafeteria kitchen, so I take the opportunity to head for the bathroom.I hesitate as I pass the door to the ladies' room, my hands resting on the knob, but soon after taking one last look around, I push open the door to the men's room and find Max waiting for me.As he did earlier in the morning, he doesn't give me time to think and pulls me by the waist to one of the private doors and I give a muffled cry of fright.All the words and gestures had already been exposed in the conversation at the table, now we were dominated only by the urgency to possess each other. Max began by taking my lips in a voracious way, a wild yet perfectly fitting kiss.His musky perfume once again drove me to near delirium. My legs weakened just imagining him once again touching and possessing me. As we kissed, Max slowly lifted my blouse and began to caress my breasts, still under my bra, luckily a nice one he had rand

I begin to believe that luck is really on my side because when I leave, again Klaus is not at the counter and I can go straight to the exit door. I leave to pay for my drink later. Three days later... I arrive at the room and Loretta is getting ready. A pink, low"cut tights"style blouse and very short black fabric shorts. The loose hair completes the femme fatale look and the low heels, although low, indicate that she is going to a club. Certainly a college girl. " What's up, let's go?" She invites me as soon as she notices my presence. " Where to?” "Do I look pretty?" He turns from the mirror toward me, to show me his look. " You look...? You look beautiful." I answer, unsure. I still can't figure out what Loretta's vibe is. "It's the freshman welcoming party. At the Republic of the Stars.” Sounds like a joke. "Homecoming, freshmen, Republic... I don't know. Something smells like another hazing. “ " Relax, today is just fun." She tries to comfort me. Not that I didn't ha

" But wouldn't you only come on Saturday? " I whispered, in a scolding tone, taking Ethan by the arm as if he were a child, which was nonetheless true. " Aren't you happy to see me, little sister?” "Stop calling me that, boy!". I complain, again, in between words. Ethan is the picture of confusion. He wanted to surprise me, but he ruined everything. I wasn't ready to receive him. Not today. I had other plans, with other people. In fact, the plan was to meet people. My social circle in the first week of college was restricted to my roommate and a professor. In fact, restricted is quite a word that fits my situation perfectly. An extremely restricted, secretive, and dangerous situation. What I was living was so wrong that I could hardly stop to be aware of it all or I would freak out. "What's gotten into you?". Ethan disengages himself from me, extremely irritated. He wants answers. "I wasn't expecting you today.” "That I know, that's why I was surprised. But from what I can s

" Do you dance? " A boy with hair dyed blue at the ends suddenly appears in front of us.I look at Loretta and shrug. Do we have to answer? Is he already on drugs or what? Loretta ignores him completely and turns towards me. " You're out of beer, excuse me. " She takes the glass from my hand and walks away, leaving me awestruck, confused and alone with the blue haired boy with the stupid face." Loretta is like that, you know. I don't exist for her. " He explains himself, even though I didn't ask. " Or you've done something that really displeased her, who knows…”" Not that I remember.”" Hmm.”We both stood there absorbing the awkward atmosphere without having anything to say. I hoped he would get over himself and leave, but he took a sip of his beer and continued to stand there in front of me. Maybe he was waiting for Loretta to come back. I couldn't understand what he was waiting for. And I also didn't have the courage to do like her and just leave. " Are you the ...? " He trie

The attitude surprised everyone. Several heads turned in the direction of the door, through which Max entered, dressed in casual clothes, as if it were possible to camouflage himself among the students. It was the first time I had ever seen him like this, stripped down, totally informal, and smiling a lot.His eyes quickly followed the whole environment, as if looking for someone. A very cheeky student soon offered him a glass of beer, and he accepted, nodding and smiling. That's exactly what it looked like. He just wanted to infiltrate, to relax, to enjoy a moment with the students, with the younger ones.I held myself back from staring in his direction for longer than was acceptable. Loretta nudged me and just with her features gave me a message to disguise myself."Soon you'll be drooling, control yourself. " She joked and Erick just smiled, somewhat confused."Where's Peter, huh. Isn't he coming?" I asked, to change the subject immediately.Suddenly I felt an inconvenient warmth,

" Are you really all right? " Loretta asks me as soon as we enter the room. She quickly puts together a new look for me from the clothes in her small closet. " This will look wonderful on you, better than the other one, put it on! I agree with her, after all I don't have much choice or head to choose a new combination. If I took too much time to think about the episode I might not even want to return to the party. " Tell me. What was that all about? " Loretta asks after a while watching me get dressed. " An incident. No big deal. That's what everyone saw. " I try to cover it up. I touch up my lipstick and take one last look in the mirror before I leave. But Loretta is still sitting on the bed, her gaze inquisitive. Since when had she become my mother?" What? " Aria, you have to be more careful. " Why are you saying this? " I don't need to state the obvious. I think you already know how much trouble you're in if you keep this up.Oh, come on... Moral lessons at this hour? Bes

Arriving at the room, making sure that no one had seen the three of us together in the hallways, I summarized the whole imbroglio to Loretta and Ethan." And to think I underestimated you. " Ethan mocked with a somewhat mournful tone." Just one last question for me, Aria. " Go ahead. " I say to Loretta." You're not brothers at all, are you? Ethan, who is all the time pacing back and forth across the room, suddenly stops and looks at me, curious about my answer. This was the part I hadn't made clear to her yet. " We are considerate brothers. He is the son of my father's wife. " That's right. Fate brought us together. " Ethan reiterates, making little hearts with his hands. What a stupid kid... And hot." And then you hit it off.Bingo. Loretta didn't miss a thing. There was no need for an answer. Our expression already gave everything away. " Your faces and mouths during the party were the biggest signs. And unlike you, Ethan, I never underestimated Aria. " Loretta completes, c
