Campus Novels & Stories

When I’d been applying to university this had been one of my options, but it wasn’t sat on the coast, so I’d put it low down on my list. I locked the car and hefted my bag up higher on my shoulder. The car park I was in looked fancy, with barren trees secured in iron fencing scattered across its expanse. Cyrus had told me this one was closest to the building his office was in, but I’d driven past a few others on my way here. The campus seemed bigger than Bournehurst’s, but that had been halved, with the humanities clustered together on one side of town and the sciences on the other. Perhaps together they would have been this intimidating.

I’m practically vibrating. Aiden catches my buzz and smiles, wasting no time as he guides me through the towering marble hallways and out into the gardens. The university grounds are massive—perfectly trimmed lawns, tall shade trees, and doms spread out everywhere. They’re either deep in tactical conversation, practicing throws, or leaning against their ludicrously expensive cars, showing off to the girls. Every man here owns a car worth more than most houses. They never drive them—campus life doesn’t allow for much—but ownership is everything in this place.

“I’d love to, Pookie. Watching the girls drool over you would be hilarious. But I’ve got somewhere to be.” I narrowed my eyes. “Secret outing. Of course.” Rolling my eyes, I huffed. “Fine.” Lucas jingled his car keys, already heading for the door. “Noah. Now.” I sighed and followed, but I didn’t miss Gavin’s playful wink behind my back. This was going to be a long day. SIEGE UNIVERSITY The campus was huge, the buildings towering like silent giants. Students bustled around, laughter and chatter filling the air.

Victor about their safe arrival and that now they were heading towards the University in a cab. When they reached the university, Fuoco was surprised to see the campus....It was indeed a huge place that was worth being called expensive! It was a big campus.... atleast it was her first time to see an educational institute so vast and wide-spread! She wanted to explore more but surpressed her curiosity....she had to first focus on getting admission here. Fuoco was actually planning something else....she knew the cost of studying at a big University like this... won't be low and she was in no mood to take financial help from either

He glanced at the screen and his expression immediately cooled. “Cassandra.” “Should I send flowers to the funeral of your personality?” “She says we have exactly forty minutes before a live campus interview.” I blinked. “A what?” “She booked us on Northside Live.” “You’re joking.” “I wish.” He walked toward the door again before pausing. “And apparently,” he added dryly, “we’re trending nationally.” I dropped my head back against the pillow. “Fantastic.” By the time we arrived on campus, it looked less like a university and more like a media circus.

"Richard says the campus has amazing clubs and activities. You should try something new!" I stare at the latest message while sitting on my dorm room bed, trying to figure out how to respond. How do I tell her that her new husband's son's friends have made me their personal entertainment? How do I explain that I can't walk across campus without hearing whispers about the dining hall incident? I can't. She's too happy.

AVA. Blackwood Institute Sports Complex. The grass brushed lightly against my sneakers as I shifted my weight from one foot to the other, my fingers loosely wrapped around the strap of my bag. The evening air carried a faint chill, but it wasn’t enough to settle the heat simmering under my skin. Four days. Just four days on this campus, and I had already learned more than I ever wanted to. Not everyone smiles at you because they like you. Some smile because they’ve already decided where you belong.

Her finger swept across a cluster of buildings by the water, towards the south. “That’s the campus,” she said. “Spans from 6th Avenue all the way to the water, and takes up every block between East 23rd and East 34th. Tallest building we’ve got is about 1200 meters high, but most of the rest are less than half that.” Pelli whistled in awe as Amal sat back down. “Damn,” he said. “That’s a huge campus. How do you even keep yourself organized in a place that big? I can’t even imagine how you even get from class to class.”

she said. I chuckled. "Alright." THE CAMPUS is broad. In front of our dorm were restaurants and cafés. The cafeteria was one hell of a walk from our dorm so we decided to eat in the nearby restaurant. Chanter University has many buildings. Every course has different buildings. Of course, I saw it again on the handbook. There's also a map fastened in there. "What do you want to eat?" Reina asked me. We're standing right in front of the counter, looking for the menus above.
