Chace

My stomach is a ball of nerves as I walk across campus. I take in the gorgeous brick buildings as I walk, hoping that my admiration for architecture will take my mind off how fuckin’ nervous I am. It’s just my first class, it shouldn’t be any big deal, but for some reason I am borderline shittin’ bricks.

Shittin’ bricks.

A slow smile spreads across my face as Quinn’s flashes through my mind. She loves that term. I shake my head, freeing her from my thoughts. It’s illogical that I can’t seem to break free from her. It’s been weeks since we’ve had any sort of communication. I imagine that Finley has told her that plans have changed for me, but I never made that call myself. Cutting all ties has been the best thing for all of us.

Being in Boston was going to be good for me…and Finley. We were in the same city, and it would certainly allow us to reconnect after a summer of being apart. We’d already explored the city a bit since she moved into her dorm across town at Harvard just a few days ago. We held hands as we walked the cobblestone streets, and as my thumb stroked the back of her hand, I breathed a sigh of relief. This was the right thing to do, and swallowing back my secret was going to allow us to escape the storm that could have potentially ruined us.

As I continue walking, I can’t help but notice the girls passing me by. Their heads turn as I pass, and I fight the urge to smirk smugly. Yeah, being close to Finley is definitely going to be a good thing.

Since Boston College is a catholic university, all students are required to take courses on religion. It definitely isn’t something high on my priorities list, but it certainly isn’t going to hurt anything. The academic advisors gave a great spiel on how the theology courses expand your knowledge of the world, thus making you a better member of society. The little pitch had been so good that they had me sold on a year of Biblical Heritage, parts one and two. Yes, I would be studying biblical heritage for a whole year of my life. Surely something I wasn’t going to use once I became a business owner, but I was taking it regardless.

Walking up to the building, I can’t help but wonder who the hell designed this campus. Why were all the academic buildings clumped together in the middle of campus while the residential halls were as far away as possible, lining the opposite sides of the campus? Didn’t make sense to me. I open the door and allow the girls walking behind me to go in first. They giggle openly once they are past me. With a shake of my head, I follow them into the building. I pull the piece of paper from my pocket that has my schedule and class locations on it.
