**Chapter-17. Dreams and unexpected appearances **
"You are so beautiful inside and out Sharlene." He says with such sincerity in his blue eyes that I grin, showing all of my teeth.
"You deserve all the happiness in the world. Your smile is magical. Independent and confident, I find that very sexy about you." He says slowly leaning in to kiss me and smiling at me with adoration in his eyes. I swoon at his words and my eyes close on their own accord.
I can feel his breath on my lips and my breathing accelerates.
I am shaking.
No, not the nervous shaking.
Someone is shaking me. I open my eyes groggily and see a blurred image of a brunette instead of Matt Lanter.
What the face?
"Wake up idiot!"
"Oh dear Lord, waking you up is such a task. Sharlene open your ficrkin' eyes. Wake up. We will be late to college." The brunette harshly throws me back on the bed.
Matt, where did you go? Where are you? I start searching for Matt.
"Sharlene, wake up girl. Its 10.40 already. We have class in 20 minutes." This time a blonde says sweetly patting my shoulder and gently shaking it.
"Where is Matt?" I call for him in my dream.
"God Help me. Who matt? Matt Boomer or Matt Leblanc or Matt Damon. Why the hell am I even asking this? Heather, I think we should leave. We are gonna be late. It's impossible to wake her up." The brunette puts her hand up in exasperation.
I want my Matt Lanter. Those blue eyes and sexy brown hair. I sigh dreamily thinking about it.
"Sharleeeene, come-on wake up already. We have mechanics class today, its imp-" suddenly I am splashed with cold water on my face I sit straight up blinking.
"Melissa seriously?" Heather says.
"What the food Melissa?" I say groggily.
"Food? You are so incoherent in the mornings Sha." Heather giggles from beside me.
I wipe my face with my hand and yawn and was about to fall back to bed again when Heather swiftly sits behind me supporting me. I turn around and hug her, snuggling my head on her shoulder and was about to close my eyes when I catch a glimpse of my alarm clock which tells its 10.45 AM now.
Hmmm..so Matt, where were we? Where are you? Its 10.45 already.
10.45..
10.45..
Chocolate Fudge.
I have to submit my mechanics assignment and the professor will only accept it, if the student himself/herself submits it.
Apple pie.
I need to get ready.
I jump from the bed and run to the bathroom brush my teeth and wash my face and dash into my room when Heather hands me my clothes.
"Why didn't you guys wake me up?"
Jump, jump. Wiggle, wiggle. Jeans on.
"Did you see the time?"
Bra on, tee on. Hmm skull shirt. As always, good taste Heath.
"We are gonna be late and Professor Shiny head is so not going to let it pass." I say to them and hop to the mirror putting on my black wedge booties.
Ah. Hell. I will do this in the car. I take my bag and put all my stuff in and head downstairs. "Come on girls. Melissa grab the keys on the way out and start up the car. I will lock the doors."

In a minute they are out and I lock the doors pat shiro and say my goodbye and he licks my cheek saying his goodbye and I run to my car and close my door, "Step on it Mel!" I say breathless.
I open the vanity mirror and put on my makeup which comprises of a sunscreen, eyeliner and chapstick.
After I am done I sit back. Yawning I look at the girls and see that Heather is trying to suppress a smile and Melissa is-whoa, scary. She is glaring and her nostrils are flared and lips pursed in a thin line.
The pure incarnation of the She-devil in my eyes.
"Someone's in a bad mood." I say to no one.
In 15 minutes we reach college and run to our class which is in second floor.
Professor Shiny Head has yet not made an appearance. Oh! Bless the soul of Matt Lanter! I don't even know why I am blessing his soul.
Incoherency is natural to me if I don't have 8 hours of sleep.
Thanks to cardio workout I usually do though, I don't pant like I have run a marathon when I sit down.
"Slept in huh piggy?" Austin asks.
"Obviously dumbo. We had a girl's sleepover last night." Heather says rolling her eyes at Austin. In response Austin just smiles.
Aww..they both are so cute.
Speaking of cute where is he? I think scanning the class room.
Ah! Found him!
Vivian has his head bent and is taping away on his phone. To Scarlett I guess.
Whatever. I shrug it off and turn away.
After a couple of minutes a man walks in who is obviously not Professor Shiny Head.
Instead, he is handsome. Like Ezra Fitz handsome and sexy.
"I am Professor Meyers. I am going to be taking Professor Henderson's class for this week as he has caught the flu." Professor Meyers says.
"So class let's do something different today. How about a simple project?"
"Noooooooo" answers the class in unison.
"Guys I know it sounds boring. But hear me out. The project is going to be a piece of cake for you. You just have to take any mechanism and study it and submit a two page report on it. Pairing for this project will be done randomly. And this project will be graded and added to your score as assignment marks. Also you don't have to submit another assignment as you're supposed to. This project alone will be considered as two assignments." He finishes and looks at us.
For those who have not understood let me explain. In our college each semester is divided into two mids, like first mid and second mid. In each mid we have to submit two assignments that the professor gives. And right now Professor Hottie is saying that we only have to submit one assignment. I know no one is interested in this college stuff.
So, I am cool with it. How bad could it be? Observing and reporting. Piece of cake.
"So for the pairing part. No pairing with your 'partners in crime'. These are your assignment sheet and I will call the numbers and pair you guys up." He says putting a sheet on each student's desk.
Everyone groans and curses. Well I didn't think about the pairing.
I take my sheet and see the number: 24 A
Who is gonna be 24 B?
"I am 3 B. What's yours?" Heather shows her sheet and takes mine.
Then it clicks.
"Mine is 3 A. Heath we are a team." Austin says smiling at Heath. Both of them stand up and leave as the professor calls their number.
After a while Melissa gets paired up with Jayson, the scar boy. They were number 20.
No freaking way.
"23 A and 23 B" Professor Meyers calls.
Vivian still hasn't been paired.
My fate isn't that bad. God! You wouldn't do it.
"24 A and 24 B" and you did it dear lord. You never fail to surprise me.
I approach professor and nod at him as he says to do well and leave.
"Sharlene. Wait. We are a team." Vivian says a few steps behind me.
Ugh! Out of all the people in this class I had to be paired with him.
Why did I even think this gonna be ok?
Wait! I can swap partners right?
"No, please don't swap partners." Vivian says pleadingly.
Was I talking out loud?
"The look on your face clearly says that you don't want me as your partner. But please, just do this project with me!" Vivian asks pleadingly.
"Fine." As much as I hate this, I can't just avoid him forever and you know my mom always says 'Don't end it, mend it.'
That was how my day started.
Rest of the day passed by soon and finally I get to go home.
I was walking to the parking lot when someone calls my name, I turn back to see who it was and instantly turn around and channel my vampire speed to walk to Melissa's car.
"Sharlene, wait!" and Vivian catches up to me.
"What is it Vivian?" I ask irritated.
"Um..about the project?" He asks
"Let's talk about it in class tomorrow Vivian. Bye" I say and turn around only to see the most unexpected person walking towards me.
