just be into me (GL)

"Make groups of ten, I need your answers before Friday" came the teacher's voice.

Ella sighed dejectedly,

really now!!

Group works wasn't her thing, she seemed loud but talking in a group felt really hard. How was she going to cope, Cream wasn't here either.

"Hi dear, Luella right?" a voice called out. It was a cute, curly blonde hair owner. A girl.

"Hi" was Ella's reply

"Ummm, we need one member to complete our group so…. Would you like to, you know, join our group?" There was a cute smile and a one sided dimple that appeared whenever she opened her mouth.

"Sure" Ella nodded, getting up to follow the girl.

"By the way, I'm Diane" came the girl's voice

"Okay" Ella's reply

"You don't seem to talk much, I'm guessing you're the shy type" Diane shrugged "You're not a native right? How have you been? It's really nice here isn't it?"

Ella nodded, unsure of which question she was answering.

"Am I annoying? should I stop talking?" Diane said out of the blue

Ella chuckled. yeah, I think you should….

"No, it's fine" Ella smiled, Diane was one hell of a noisy bitch but who was she to tell her.

———

"This is Elison, Drake, Dean, Jay, Brey, Mia, Lucy and Blue. They're part of the group" Diane said, pointing at whoever she called.

Yeah, Blue, Blue Daves…..

Blue didn't return after what happened the last time. Lecture halls were the only places Ella saw her and here she was, leisurely sitting, acting like nobody exists.

"Hi" Ella waved awkwardly, her attention on Blue who didn't look at her.

"So we're complete" one of the girls, Mia, clapped her hands "so what's next is our schedules, I'm free whenever you're ready and that goes for every other person here except you" she said, pointing at Ella

"Oh" Ella's awkward reply

"Yea" Mia nodded "so?"

"I'm always free too. I mean, if there's no class then I have nothing to do" Ella smiled, a forced one.

"It's settled then" Drake was the one to speak

"Yup, we'll need your number, we're creating a group chat" came Mia's voice

"Cool" Ella said eyes on Blue who was now busy with her phone

What the hell!!

She was sure she had done nothing wrong, all she did was buy a bike. A bike Blue had asked for herself.

"Later then, I have plans for now" Mia said, picking up her backpack "catch you guys later" she said, walking out.

Every other person stood up as well, they had been sitting down.

Ella's heart sank seeing Blue walk out with the rest. She couldn't even say hi.

What had she really done?

"Luella right?" Came a startling voice "sorry, I'm Dean" the boy said awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck

He had curly brown hair, dark brown eyes that reminded her of Blue with a nicely sculpted nose that fit his face perfectly, brown skin, tall….

Ahhhhh, spec

"Hi" Ella smiled, he was really handsome

"Sorry to bother you, you mentioned that if there's no class then you're free so I was thinking I should show you around. It feels like an insult for a native like me if you're finding it boring staying here"

Damn, he's accent

"No… thats… that's not it, I've just not had time to go out" Ella bit her lower lip

He chuckled "you seem shy and look like an introvert, it's understandable"

Introvert! Hell no!

Last time she checked, she loved outings. Picnics, clubs and shopping. You know the feeling of having afternoon tea in a cute cafe… ahhhh, she loved that. Yeah she loved reading in libraries but that was only because they her gave her the vibes, you know, the innocent, cute looking, cool intelligent girl vibe. She heard boys loved girls like that. Wearing headphones while flipping through a book was her thing. She loved stylish buildings where she could take photos. Going out and exploring was literally her thing. But all these didn't stop her from not playing with her studies. It was more cool to be the cool badass straight A student.

"Nahhh, you're mistaken, I don't like it indoors"

Dean smiled "that's how it should be, want me to show you around?"

"Sure" Ella nodded

What's better than a brown skin handsome guy showing you around?
