All Chapters of Blue Ribbon: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Call me when you get there," Sally insisted as she paced around my bedroom, "You know what, just text me every hour, so I can make sure you're still alive."I rolled my eyes at her dramatic reaction, "Keep your location turned on also, so I can keep checking just in case I can't reach you.""Oh my god," I pressed my palm over my forehead, "And I thought my dad was overprotective," I mumbled, "Stop being so dramatic, it's a just two-day vacation, that's all."She crossed her arms over her chest, "Vacation?" Her eyes narrowed at me and she sarcastically remarked, "Why? Are you so tired after just one week of the new semester?""Sally, did my parents assign you to watch over me or something?" My eyebrow raised, addressing her over-reacting state.She shook her head, "No, but you're going all alone, with a guy you met only one week ago, and let's just not ignore the fact that he is our damn professor!"I sighed, "It's not like anything is gonna happen!" I shot out, "I just wanna have som

Three months later...Lilly's POV"Lilly, it's your turn," Louis ushered and I placed my cards down with a very proud smile."Oh, come on," he whined, slamming down his cards with a loud huff.I chuckled, "Don't be a sore loser," I said and his brown eyes shot me a very hard glare.His phone rang and his gaze drifted to the screen before they went back to me, "This is not over yet, you just declared war, little one," He threatened before he got to his feet and walked away to answer his phone.Christian chuckled and wrapped an arm around my back and on instinct, I leaned closer into his embrace. It was natural now, to have his skin on mine, to be in his presence and surrounded by him.It has been three months since our little weekend getaway and Christian and I stuck to our words. Within the walls of our university, he is only my professor and I am his student. As hard and thrilling it was, with just a few teasing looks here and a few winks there, we didn't do anything too illegal.We

Chase's POV"Hey," I said to Conner, as I stood by his room's door. My voice grabbed his attention from the laptop's screen and to me."Yeah?" He asked and I pulled the near chair and sat across from him, "I am gonna ask for a favor and you can't say no."His eyebrows pulled together, "Okay?"I nodded my head toward his phone, "Take that," I said and he confusingly picked his phone up, "Now, open it," I added and he did that, "Now, call Sally."His eyes snapped from the phone to me and they widened a bit, "Wait, what? Why? Why would I do that? What do you want? What's wrong?"My eyebrows pulled closer at his refusal, "Weren't you two close friends, what happened?"He chuckled nervously, "Me and Sally? Close?" He shook his head, "No, no, we were just normal friends, normal, not close, casual even, I mean more like acquaintances actually," He started rambling, "I mean, a friend is too big of a word sometimes, like yeah you and me, we are friends, but like Sally and me," He waved his han

**************I woke up late for the first time in a while. I checked the time and saw that it reached one p.m. I groaned in annoyance and covered my face with my hands. I couldn't sleep all night, I remember it to be seven a.m. when I last checked the time.I breathed out a low sigh and made up my mind. I already missed my morning class, so maybe it's better to take the whole day off, it's better if I don't face Christian right away. I need time to think and rearrange my thoughts.Lazily, I got to my feet and unlocked my door before I headed to the kitchen, expecting Sally to be here since she doesn't have any classes today.A yawn parted my lips and I tiredly rubbed at my eyes. I paused in my steps when I reached the kitchen and my attention was first stolen by the one red rose laying over the counter, under it was a small piece of paper.Curious and confused, I walked closer and picked the rose up, my eyes traveled to the paper and read the words written, 'It felt so weird not to

*****************After Christian took his shower, we went to bed, and almost immediately he fell asleep. He's been working really hard all over the past week, he was pulling on late hours at night to finish working on his project, even tomorrow which is Sunday, he will go to the university, to finish up a few things before his big presentation on Monday comes.So, the moment he placed his head on the pillow, he was a gone case.Me, on the other hand, I couldn't sleep at all. I kept thinking back to today's little incident, something just felt off, but for the love of me, I can't figure it out.Minutes and minutes later and a low groan vibrated from my chest, annoyed at my tired body that won't just rest and sleep.My back was to Christian, pressed right up against his chest and his arm was under me. I smiled again when I stared at his tattoo and finally understood the word written, but still on the inside of his arm and around the word laid different patterns, intertwined together an
