"You seriously kicked him in the penis?" Likton turns to me after hearing the brunettes side.

"Okay he insulted me and then pinned me onto his bed, as a female, that might appear threatening or scary. You should take into account how I might've felt like I was being taken advantage of." I say. This excuse always worked when I got into fights at Spokane, so hopefully it'll work here.

"Elliot, I'm afraid that here, we have a strict no touching policy between girls and guys, whether it's enforced or not should either way mean no touching,"

I sit lower in my chair as I mentally groan. A no touching policy? You literally roomed a girl and guy together and I'm sure a lot of girls and guys here don't go for the opposite gender.

"Why is a girl roomed with me?" The dude actually speaks not stupid things. Wow.

"We don't have enough space to switch her and we confused Elliot as a boy, so therefor she is roomed with a boy."

"No switching?" I ask to clarify. Headmaster nods his head and then sends us back to our dorm.

"What's your name?" I question as we start walking back to the dorm building.

"Atlas."

"Atlas what?"

"Atlas none of your fucking business." Jesus man, just trying to make some small talk. Get to know my roommate that I'll be rooming with for two fucking years.

"Well I'm Elliot Morgan." I extend my hand out for him to shake. And that hand is shoved aside by his body that continues to walk. "Does my name give you butterflies or some shit? No reason to walk away,"

The blonde guy is still in our dorm when we arrive. I smile lightly at him and he gives me a huge grin back. I started unpacking and the farthest I got was making my bed, before falling asleep. I guess I was tired.

"I'm Elliot M-"

"Morgan, yeah, the whole school knows who you are. Basically a legend. We had a seminar right before you got here because Likton wanted to make a good impression on your dad," he smiles down at me from his tall height.

"Well what's your name?"

"Bo Hemmingway. You probably have no idea who my family is but my dad's a guitarist and trained some famous person like 10 years ago,"

"Well Bo, nice to meet you and no I don't know who your family is," I chuckle awkwardly.

"Bo she isn't a fucking royal, she doesn't need that sort of treatment," Atlas said from his side of the room.

"Well maybe if I get on her good side I'll get to fly in a private plane or ride a horse," Bo muses, laughing and I laugh along with him.

"Most people at my old school think that too, until they actually hang out with me and find out I'm not the most fun to be around," I tell him and Bo frowns. Not wanting to believe the idea that people use me for my money.

"Anyway, people here aren't like that, well maybe they are, I only have like 5 friends and they're all pretty wealthy." Which I expected. Monarch Creek seemed like the type of place where only wealthy people go to school. But considering that it was here or jail for me, I didn't have to pay full tuition. I did look at the cost though and wow, how in the fuck does anyone afford it?

"Um, cool?" I say awkwardly as I start to unpack my underwear. Bo instantly closes his eyes and I laugh. "Dude, it's just underwear, you can look."

"Yeah, but it's all... lacy and sheer and stuff." I mean he was right, Harper bought most of my undergarmets and sometimes even clothes so she only bought me stuff on the fancier side.
