LANA

"Can't believe it! Argh. Why does Sydney need to have such a hot roommate? She's totally her type. Why can't Sydney ever look at me that way?" I asked myself.

Caught in my moment, I heard someone across the room from me. "Hey, I'm Callie. I'm your roommate."

Callie looked like a shy quiet girl. Just my luck.' I told myself. "Hey, I'm Lana. Yeah, guess we will be roommates for the rest of the year."

Save by the knock on the door. "Lana, it's Sydney. Let's go and eat now. I'm starving." I opened the door and the tall and dark haired beauty of a goddess with the badass appeal walked in. She looked around the room then to Callie. Callie was in shocked and her mouth visibly open. I cleared my throat, "Callie, this is my best friend Sydney. Sydney this is Callie."

"Nice to meet you, Callie." Sydney winked at her.

I could have sworn that Callie swooned. Why the fuck does she always have to wink at girls? I'm fucking right here and she doesn't do that to me. All I could do is roll my eyes at her. "Let me get my things, Syd, then we'll head out."

Sydney laid on my bed as I was getting ready fiddling on her phone. Yes, just lay on my bed so your scent is all over the sheets. I mean it's her sheets already, so it already smelled like her. What the fuck am I thinking. I went back to what I was doing then called out, "Syd, let's go. I'm ready."

"God, what took you so long? Who are you trying to impress."

'For you, you fuckhead.' I rolled my eyes. "No one. Why can't I look nice all the time."

"But you always look nice. I don't know why you always have to look extra nice."

Did I hear that right? Did she just complimented me? Flirted? Oh, God. Why is the world so mean to me? Why can't I read her?

"Come on, let's go. There's this taco place I want to check out. Then maybe we can walk around and explore this campus at night. Find that 6pm class that you hate so much." She laughed.

"Stop making fun of me, Syd. Why are you so mean?"

"I'm not mean," she smirked.

"Whatever, are we walking or taking your Jeep."

"We are driving there... Come on, slow poke. I don't know why you decided to wear wedges."

"Syd, leave me alone."

"Why?"

"Why are you so mean to me?"

She didn't say anything. She kept walking towards her jeep. At least she opened the door for me even if she didn't close it behind me. She just rushed over to the driver seat. I shrugged it off. It's Sydney. She's not romantic. She's just being polite, nice, sorry for me even?

We drove for about five minutes and reached a taco truck. "Yes, some good ol' street tacos," she said excitedly as she pulled up into the parking lot. "Can't wait! I'll order us some carne asada and el pastor. Why don't you go find us a bench to sit."

"I hopped out of the raised jeep and sat on the closest empty bench. When I turned around Sydney already ordered and was already talking to some girl. She was smiling at the girl. She had her flirty eyes, her one in a million smile and that fucking smirk. Sydney has the most beautiful smile. She had these white straight teeth and her dimples. Any one could fall in love with her with her dimples alone. But, argh, I want to wipe that shit off her face. Why the fuck am I jealous? Sydney's my best friend. I don't want to ruin what we have for these emotions that she probably doesn't even feel back for me."

She finally came to the table with tacos and 2 big horchatas and of course this girl that she was talking to followed her. "Hey Lan. This is Harlow. Harlow this is my best friend Lana." She always introduces me as her best friend. That is what I'll always be, I guess, and it fucking hurts.

"Hey!" I smiled at her.

"You don't mind if Harlow takes a seat with us, do you?"

"Of course not, babe. Let's just enjoy these tacos." I said annoyed. I just wanted to spend a night where it was just us. But, people always want to be friends with her or sleep with her. It's annoying the shit out of me.

Someone tapped me on the shoulder and I turned around, "Yes, can I help you?"

"Hey, I'm Connor. I couldn't help, but see you from across and wanted to say how beautiful you are."

"Awe, thanks Connor. That's sweet. Have a good rest of your night." I turned around and looked at Sydney and she was giving the dirtiest look at the poor guy. Why is she acting so strange when someone approaches me?

"So, I was wondering if you want to hang out some time and if I can get your number."

"I'm so---," I was about to say.

"She's taken. Sorry, Bro, but run along," Sydney told the guy.

"Oh, okay. Sorry to bother your evening."

"Uh huh, Okay. Bye." Sydney furrowed her eyebrows.

"What the fuck, Syd? Why do you always scare off the guys or even girls from me?"

"What? I thought you needed help?"

"I could have handled that on my own, Syd."

"Yeah, Okay next time it's all you then." She continued eating her tacos and chatting with whatever her name was.

I was done eating, so I told Sydney I would wait in the car. She smiled and said okay. I sat in the car glaring at her talking to that girl. We just got to campus and already I've witnessed Rylie, Bea, and Callie flirting with her. I can't say that this is rare, but it always happens. She only looks for sex and nothing more. She doesn't do relationships. Another reason why I never even instigated this conversation with her. What's the point, she would just reject me with whatever advances I would make.

She finally got into the car after I witness her hug Harlow. "So, is she your new FWB?" I asked facing out the opposite window away from her.

"Potentially," she responded. Again I rolled my eyes. God, she can be so fucking annoying and I have no idea why I even like her.

"So, we are heading off to campus, but I want to check out this local spot that Harlow talked about. She said it's up in the hills overlooking the city."

"Yeah, okay, let's go." I said bitterly.

"Really? What's with you? These last couple of years, you've been so icy."

"It's nothing, Syd. Let's just go to the spot alright."

She bit her tongue and didn't say a word. She's so stressing, My blood boiled and I was always pissed. I hate the feelings she gives me, but I'm still so in love with her and she doesn't know it.
