Chapter 7

It was about 8 that night when I discovered I couldn't find my phone. I wanted to let Axel know he should leave. I was horrible with phone numbers so now I had to go to the bar where he was staying. I checked my laptop to find the address was in town. About ten minutes away from here.

Again I got back into my car and headed to the place while I mesmerized about how I had met Axel. It was when I was getting my belongings to my dorm.
I wasn't the one to linger with my parents and do the crying thing so I said my goodbyes at home and now I was struggling to get my belongings to my dorm.

I was dressed in jeans and a hoody and it was lashing with rain outside. Stepping inside there were a few guys, including Axel. One shouted at me.
"Dude! Are you lost!? These are the girl's dorms."

"Sorry?" I raised my head to look up at them. I am not super tall or anything and I guess with just jeans and a sweater I could be mistake for a guy but still. I thought it was not such a nice thing to say.

"Safe to say she is a girl pall" Axel had grinned slapping his friend on the back. He walked over to me. "Need help?"
I nodded in silence. Both my parents had warned me to not get too close to any guys because they would only distract me.

Safe to say Axel would show to be a distraction. Not because I fell for him but because he fell for me. He was everywhere I was even when he was studying law and I was studying medicine. I just never noticed... when I did (the damn librarian pointed it out to me!) he asked me out. I agreed on one date.... Soon enough that turned out to more.

I never really got why I fell for him. It was not your head over heels kind of love. He was my first love and I did really love him. He had felt safe, a rock. He was smart, simple. He wasn't from the world I was from. He had to work hard and was on a scholarship.
My parents took a while to warm up to him but eventually even invited him over for our family holiday's.

Now after 2 years we were done and I wasn't going to let him mess up his studies to take care of me. I could take care of myself!
Once I stepped into the bar I spotted him within 2 seconds, how could I miss him. Sitting at a corner table at the window surrounded by his books and papers. It was rather stupid of him to stay here. How could he focus in this crowd? It was a week night but still there were enough people around to keep him from focusing.

"Axel!" I called and walked up to him. As soon as he heard me his eyes went up and for some reason my heart jumped a little. The way he looked me up and down... It was just different. Or maybe it was just me.
