Sorry for the delay. Had a run-in with a punching bag and had to fix things. Will be home soon.

A punching bag?

Yeah, those things aren’t made like they used to be. Weak, easily broken.

Ok. CU soon

I tuck my phone away. One asshole down. One more to go.

CHAPTER16

AUTUMN

“Babe.”Noble’s hand comes to my chin to turn my face toward him. My attention was lingering on other people as we made our way across campus.

“Huh?” When I stare up into his eyes, I forget about everyone else. I don’t know how Noble does it, but when he looks at me, I feel like I’m the only girl in the world.

“I said good luck on the test.”

“Oh, right. Thanks.” He drops a kiss on my mouth. Noble is wicked smart. He’s always down to help me study, having done all of his core classes years ago. “Have fun in your Comparative Economic Systems class.” I’ve looked over some of his coursework for that class and wanted to jump off a cliff.

“I’ll try.” He kisses the tip of my nose before he taps my ass to go into my classroom.

I head inside, almost running into someone. The guy jumps back, holding his hand up. “Shit, sorry. I didn’t see you, I swear.” His eyes are wide, and he looks a little jumpy.

“It’s fine. It’s my fault, I wasn’t paying attention.” He nods and quickly goes to the other side of the classroom to find a seat as far away from me as possible. Which is weird because while we might not have assigned seats, people tend to sit in the same spot, and I believe he’d been two seats in front of me in this class up until now.

I drop down in my own chair to wait for class to start. I play with my phone as I wait for the professor. What I should be thinking about is the test, but all I can think about is Noble demanding I sit on his face last night. I have no clue how he still managed to be in full control with me in that position, but he was.

His bedroom is a safe space for me. The second I walk into his place, my whole body relaxes, and my worries fade away. The man is making me fall in love with him. It’s scary, but I can’t make myself run away at this point. I’m already too far gone for him.

“You’re dating Noble, right?” A girl with long, blond, curly hair drops down in the seat next to me. I don’t recognize her from around campus. But it’s giant, so it’s not uncommon to not recognize some people. But it is when you’ve been taking a class for a few months. I might not know everyone's names, but I know the faces.

“I suppose you could call it that.”

“Did you happen to date Rob Track or Nathan Long?”

“Rob who?” I ask confused. I think Nathan's last name is Long, if I’m remembering correctly.

“Rob Track. He used to be a part of Sigma Theta but has recently transferred.” Maybe she means the Rob that freaked me out the day I met Noble.

“No, I’ve never dated any Rob nor Nathan, but my roommate's boyfriend’s name is Nathan.” She must have me and Renee mixed up or something.

“Does Renee count as your roommate if you never stay in the dorm?” Well, she definitely doesn’t think I’m Renee based on that statement. I stare at her, wondering where this is going. The hairs on my arms stand up. This is starting to feel like an interrogation. I was on the end of a few of those when I was in the system.

“I don’t think that’s any of your business.”

“Everything that happens at this university is my business.” I go back to playing with my phone, deciding the best thing to do is to ignore her. I swear I can sense people stealing glances my way. I’d felt it when Noble walked me to class too. “I’m withThe Campus Recorder.”

“The school paper?”

“That’s the one,” she chirps. “Now about Noble Patton-White getting Rob and Nathan removed from the university. What can you tell me about it?”

“Wait, what?” I jerk back to face her.

“You don’t know that Noble and Nathan had an altercation last night?” It’s on the tip of my tongue to tell her Noble was with me last night and the only time he left was to go to the gym, but I bite the inside of my cheek to keep my mouth shut. “I’ll take your silence as a no.” I really don’t like this girl.

“I have nothing to talk to you about,” I say dismissively.
