Once Rejected, Now Desired.

After Helen Robert finished her pharmacy class, she stepped out and was returning to her dorm when she heard someone call her name.

“Wait, Helen,” Samuel Kingston called. He was a 24-year-old man in his fourth year at Avalon University.

“Why should I wait? What do you want from me?” Helen asked, turning back to face Samuel Kingston, the notorious bad boy on campus.

“Why are you playing hard to get? Do you think I want to use you?” Samuel asked, refusing to give up. He wore a faded black denim jacket and trousers, paired with black boots, having just exited his pharmacy class. He studied pharmacy, as did Helen, but she was a brilliant, chubby, 21-year-old fair-skinned girl.

Some other pharmacy students stole glances and wondered if Helen would give Samuel a chance. His father was a billionaire who owned a pharmaceutical company in their state.

Helen wore a white top and a brown skirt, paired with black shoes. White spectacles perched on the bridge of her nose. She was of average height, with blue eyes and long blonde hair.

“Samuel, I’m warning you: keep your distance. If you chase after me again, I’ll report you to the chancellor. So stay away!” Helen warned. She wanted nothing to do with him.

Helen Robert came from an average family of five children; she was the only daughter and the youngest. Her four brothers were businessmen. At first, her parents didn’t support her university education, but because of her intelligence, her father finally allowed her to further her studies.

Helen didn’t want to disappoint her mother, so she avoided relationships. At 21, she was still a virgin, and many students at Avalon University knew, because Helen had no boyfriend.

“Chubby nerd!” they called her.

“What’s Helen trying to prove? Why is Samuel Kingston chasing that chubby nerd? Didn’t he see other pretty women he could chase? Why Helen?”

Helen heard the rumors and insults flying around, but she didn’t care. She held her books to her chest and returned to her hostel, where she lived with four roommates: Bridget Black, Anita Roland, Cynthia Jackson and Tasha Thompson.

Bridget and Anita, both 23 and brown-skinned, didn’t like Helen because she focused on her studies and didn’t attend parties with them.

Tasha was Helen’s best friend, but unlike Helen, the youngest among them, Tasha was 22 and attended some university events. Helen was the only plus-sized among them; Tasha was slim like Bridget and Anita.

“Helen, I saw Samuel chasing you today. Aren’t you going to give him a chance? A lot of girls would kill for his attention, yet his whole attention is on you. Why can’t you accept to date him? Please?” Tasha asked, holding Helen’s hand when she returned from class.

“But Tasha,” Helen frowned, refusing.

“I don’t want anything to do with a guy like Samuel. He’s changed his girlfriend every week since our first year. How can I date him? Don’t talk about him to me again. If you’re interested, you can go after him,” Helen said, refusing to budge.

Tasha sighed. “It’s fine. I honestly wish I were the one Samuel was asking on a date. You’re obviously missing out.”

Helen sighed, not wanting to dwell on Samuel. She went to her bunk bed to lie down, exhausted after class. Soon, she fell asleep.

***

At the men’s dormitory, Samuel was with his best friends, Alex Benson, John Edward and Eric White, in their shared room.

“What’s up with you, Samuel? Have you finally won the bet?” John asked. He was 25, his father a senator, and he was a bad boy too, and Samuel’s best friend. Alex and Eric were also part of their group; they hadn’t expected Samuel to accept John’s challenge, because they knew Helen wasn’t Samuel’s type.

Samuel smiled as he sat on his bed. “Just give me time, and I’ll surely get Helen.”

“Give you time for how long? You already lost the bet because I saw you asking her out again today. That chubby girl is so full of herself, and I just hate her,” John ranted. He had asked Helen to help him with a project, but she refused, causing him to fail.

John had paid other students to help with homework, but this subject needed Helen’s help. Instead of solving it like the prodigy she was, she declined his offer of 50,000 — the highest he had ever paid was 10,000.

She embarrassed him publicly, saying, “Why don’t you read your pharmacy books and pass the exams yourself?”

John gritted his teeth, remembering the poker face Helen had given him.

Back in the present, Samuel smiled and said, “I’m on the same boat as you, John. We have until our final year graduation next year for the bet to cut. If I get Helen, date her and sleep with her, as the bet says, you’ll pay me 10 million. But if I lose, I’ll pay you. Deal?”

“Yeah. Deal,” John said, his voice full of seriousness. Alex and Eric shook their heads.

“You guys are crazy. Even if you gave me 20 million, I couldn’t sleep with that chubby nerd, even though she has a pretty face. She’s not my type. Count me out of your bet. I love my girlfriend slim and simple, not plus-sized and nerdy,” Eric said. His father worked at a petroleum company, but he wanted to become a doctor. They were all medical students, but they knew that aside from Helen’s chubby figure, most lecturers liked her.

“Even me, I can’t imagine dipping my dîck in Helen's cave or having her sit on me and ride me like a cowgirl. She’d break my waist. Samuel, I advise you to reconsider your bet with John. John is obsessed with revenge after Helen refused to help him with his homework, leading to his humiliation and detention. He wants to see her humiliated, and he’s using you,” Alex said, his voice full of concern.

“Don’t worry. I’ve got this. I want to have Helen, even if it’s for one night. She’s not my type, but that doesn’t change the fact that she’s a virgin, unlike all the loose girls at this renowned university. I want to know what it feels like to sleep with a virgin. Even if it’s once. I want to feel her virgin pụssy around my dîck, then I’ll break up with her. That’s the deal,” Samuel said, his lips curled in a smile, rendering his three best friends speechless.

“Fine. Do as you wish,” they replied, as they were older than him. Samuel smiled and re-strategized. “Trust me, I don’t fail,” he said with full confidence, believing he would get Helen soon.

“Alright. We trust you,” they agreed, hoping to see him succeed.
