Existence 03 - Ceaseless

for me . I would be sure to thank him properly as soon as I saw him.
    I’d been hoping to see Dank this morning but there was no way we had more than two classes together. At least I had Gee in this one. Well… maybe that wasn’t a good thing. She might end up being more distracting than anything.
    Gee had actually flirted with the professor. Heavily. As in made him blush bright red several times. The man stammered all over himself through most of the class. It was more entertaining than anything. I hadn’t learned one thing. At least he had given us some references and a website with this week ’ s assignments.
    “I can’t believe you,” I said , laughing as we walked to the dorm. I had th ree hours before Calculus with Dank.
    Gee shrugged, “What ? He was a cutie. The quiet nerdy kind. I like to fuck with their heads. Besides that shit is boring in there. I got better things to do.”
    “If you want to pass this class then you had better pay more attention to what he is sayin g than how to make him blush.” Although , it was funny to watch.
    “Subject change. The guy this morning. Stay away from him if you see him again.”
    Did she know him? Her comment about ‘voodoo boy’ had bothered me but Gee was weird and said off the wall things. I’d blown it off. Now, I was concerned. “Is he dangerous?” I asked glancing back to see if we were being followed. Maybe that call to the cops wasn’t such a bad idea.
    “He won’t hurt you. Trust me. Just avoid him. He’ll disappear soon enough.”
    Must be paparazzi like I’d assumed. Cold Soul’s lead singer couldn’t hold their interest long. Not when they had movie stars behaving badly to chase down.
    When we turned the corner and the front of our dorm came into view, I saw Dank leaning against his motorcycle with his arms crossed over hic chest talking to a couple of girls. He looked very uninterested and his eyes immediately found mine. He didn’t say anything to them as he straightened up and walked away from them toward me. That was the way I wanted a guy I was considering dating to act when he was being flirted with by other girls . I couldn’t keep the silly smile off my face.
    “Looks like Romeo was waiting for you r return.”

    If my time was limited before Pagan’s soul began connect to Jay’s then I was going to make damn sure that she couldn’t get me out of her head. I’d spent all morning planning o u r evening. Now, I just had to get her to agree.
    Gee muttered, “Pagan got some Bourbon street coffee this morning,” as she walked past me on her way to the dorm.
    I didn’t need an explan a tion . I had warned Leif but I was ready to put some action behind my warning. She didn’t remember him. His time with her was over. His staying around was only going to confuse her.
    “Hey,” Pagan said in way of greeting. She had stopped in front of me. She didn’t look upset or scared. Whatever Leif said to her hadn’t made an impact. Ghede really needed to get his kid a hobby. Pagan was no longer available for his entertainment.
    “Good morning. How was class?”
    She shrugged then an amused smile broke out on her face, “Gee had the professor a blubbering nervous wreck with her flirting.”
    Leave it to Gee to cause a stir wherever she went. “Is that so? I take it you enjoyed the show.”
    Pagan let out a small laugh, “Yes, I did. I probably shouldn’t but it was too funny to ignore. But it was so much easier taking note s on the laptop you sent me. Thank you so much. I promise to take good care of it. ”
    “Dank Walker! Oh wow, I saw you last week at Club Butter. You were amazing,” a girl stepped in front of Pagan and laid her hand on my chest as she began to prattle off some more. I reached for her wrist and removed her hand from my body then reached around her and grabbed Pagan’s hand and pulled her toward me.
    “Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed the show. If you’ll excuse us we were having a private conversation,” I informed her. She shifted her eyes from me to Pagan and an unimpress ed smirk distorted her face. I slipped my hand around Pagan’s waist and pulled her closer to my side. She came willingly.
    “Oh, well, when you want a little more excitement I can be found right back here,” she pointed at the dorm. Pagan had to live in the same building with her. I needed to make Gee aware that this one could be vindictive.
    “I’m sure that will never be the case,” I replied.
    The girl spun around and
