My legs shivered at the unsettling feeling of my sheets being ripped of my body. I opened one eye and sent a harsh glare towards the peace destroyer before scoffing as she just gives me a questioning look.

"I hate you." I groaned , kicking my legs over the side of my bed and shrugging on a black hoodie I found sprawled on top of my lamp which stoop broad on my bedside table.

"Get down stairs, your late." Was the only thing I heard before a loud bang rattled the room.

That was my step sister. Ever since my parents divorced, I've been stuck with her and my step mum all because my shit dad won custody of me. I could tell he always hated me - having a gay, introverted, gamer addict, scrawny son was not his ideal dream but obviously he insists on doing anything to put my mom down. But I really don't care, they both mentally abused me the same, giving me depression, anxiety and heeps of insecurities. But that was years ago, and through those years I've learnt to grow around bad memories and hide them with good ones.

For example, eating.

"I could feel the love from all the way over here" I grumbled, rolling my eyes before throwing on sweat pants that was previously lying on the floor. I took the two suit cases in each hand and made my way down stairs.

Today was the day I move onto campus, away from this forever foreign place and to somewhere new. As soon as I get enough money, I'll be cutting of ties with these people anyway, moving far far away as soon as college is over. They would be forced to pay my college fee anyway.

I left the house without saying bye and walked to the closest bus stop. I rolled back and forth on the heals of my foot as I thought about the amazing day before me.

The day I left that hell hole.

A sigh left my lips at the sight of my new room. It was pretty dull and looked lazily furnished.

It was perfect.

I threw my two bags on the floor next to the bed closest to the bathroom door and opened one of them to reveal my PS4.

Not everyone can afford a PS5 you rich fucks.

With a satisfied smile, I removed it from my bag and placed it on a small drawer that quite conveniently sat next to a plug. When done I repeated my actions, placing a small TV on top of my PS4 then plugging it into the wall.

Taking out my controller, I attached my PS4 to my TV and switched it on.

I'll un-pack tomorrow. I've already decided I'll be playing games with my mates for the rest of the day. Fuck dinner.

Just as I got my headphones out my bag, I heard the rattle of the door handle. I stood up abruptly, my eyes stuck to the door as my heart thumped my chest.

Man, fuck my anxiety , i rolled my eyes at that.

The shuffling stopped as the door slowly opens, revealing a very attractive male, also known as my possible roommate.

I slowly rased my hand waving, as my lip curled into a small smile.

"Hi."
