Loving Preston

13. Sex Ed and Mr. Sexy Arse.

Avani's Pov:

As soon as the last bell went off, signalling that the day had ended, I rushed towards my dorm room. It had been a long day and all I needed was a nap.
Just as I opened the door to my room, I saw Beth. She was dressed nicely.

I put my bag down and hopped on the bed hoping to fall into a deep slumber. "Hey! What are you doing?" I heard Beth say.

I turned my body towards her. "Trying to get some sleep?" I said looking at her quizzically. "Oh yeah well, don't do that." she said. "Why not?"

She sighed and hopped on the bed as well. "Um, I don't know how to say this...but the thing is that after the lectures got over, I saw Landon and we talked. He said he wanted to show me something and it was only fair for me to go to his place since he's been to mine." She said while looking at me.

I gave her a nod asking her to continue. "Ridiculous, right? I told him that but he was very persistent. So we made a deal because I don't trust myself around him. I told him that you'll be tagging along with me." She said biting her lips nervously, waiting for my response.

I looked at her with the 'Are you kidding me' look. "Please, Avani. I need you there. I need you to make sure that I don't do anything stupid which I'll probably end up regretting." She said.

"Oh! Earlier, he also mentioned that he shares the apartment with a guy. He told me he was into literature just like you. Maybe you could use his help to get over that writer's block thing." She pleaded, making puppy eyes at me.

I thought about it for a while.

It wouldn't be so bad to seek help from someone other than Kyle who is actually good for nothing. "I don't have anything to do all day anyways, so let's get going." I said while getting up from my previous position and collecting my things.

"Yay! let's goooo." She said while clapping her hands and getting on her feet. "Are we leaving right now?" I asked in a bored tone. "Yes, lazy ass we need to be there in a while." She said and made her way to the door.

I followed her out of the dorm.

We started walking in the direction of all the apartment buildings that were located outside the campus.

The nearer we got, the more familiar the surroundings started looking. We stopped right in front of an apartment building which I recognized from before. FUCK! this is where Ryder lives.

Calm down, maybe they live in the same building. People do that. Right? I thought.

The real panic started to settle in when Bethany pushed in the button for Ryder's floor.

Okay, stop acting like this. So what if he stays here too, who cares. I built up the will power to step outside the elevator as soon as it dinged open.

"Hey what are doing, that's the wrong flat-" Before I could complete my sentence, the door to Ryder's apartment opened, revealing a very cheery Landon.

"Welcome ladies." He said and opened the door wider. We got in and I looked around at the familiar place, trying to avoid looking at the kitchen.

I don't get it. I am so confused as to what is happening. I clearly remember leaving from this apartment the night after the party, so why did landon invite us here saying it was his place?

Hm, maybe he was embarrassed because his apartment wasn't as good, so he borrowed his friend's apartment.

The worst case scenario here could be that Landon was Ryder's roommate.
