Sweet and occasionally wild, Carmen Fuller never imagined how much her life would change once she moved into her college dorm room at the University of Miami with her best friend Eryn, but after meeting Fraternity members, Princeton Vance and Levi P...

"Bye mom," Eryn and I drag out in frustration as we waived our moms out of our new dorm room.
"Finally, they're gone", Eryn says as she plops down on the small sofa.
"Yeah, I know. Now the fun can really begin", I smile while rubbing my hands together mischievously; we both laugh.
Eryn and I have been best friends ever since 5th grade when she made me laugh so hard milk came out of my nose then helped me clean myself up. I knew from that day that we were created for one another and have been inseparable ever since. Through every major life event Eryn was there for me and I for her and now we get to experience the greatest years of our life together at the University of Miami.
Unpacking our things went by fast. We had our shared playlist titled "Bestie Playlist" blasting our favorite songs as we danced around like the crazy party animals we were. Eryn has always been bolder and more outgoing than me. Eryn is kind of tall, 5 and a half feet to be exact, with a nice figure that is not too big or too small in any places. She has a nice and even light brown complexion that hardly ever breaks out, or if it does you cannot tell because it is always covered by glamorously bold makeup. She rocks beautiful hair extensions and constantly changes the style and color; so far, her favorite is blonde.
Me on the other hand, I am a bit more reserved. I'm a shorty, 5 feet even, with an okay figure. I'm not super hippy or busty, I'm just average. My skin is a light brown shade and despite my lite everyday makeup, my acne occasionally breaks through. My brown hair is long, about to the middle of my back, with a loose natural curl. Despite our differences we do love to party together.
As we finish putting up the last bit of our things there is a knock at the door. Before either of can answer it, Sterling steps through the doorway accompanied by two other guys I had never seen before.
"Hey babe", Sterling says as Eryn rushes over to him wrapping her arms around his neck and placing a kiss, a long kiss, on his lips.
"Where have you been? I thought you were going to help us move things in," Eryn says in her baby voice that she only uses around Sterling.
"I got caught up setting up the Frat's table at the organization fair. I'm sorry babe, but it looks great in here."
I clear my throat. Standing there watching this little love encounter makes me want to puke. Don't get me wrong, I love Sterling. We have all been friends since 5th grade, far before him and Eryn got together. I love them as a happy couple, but standing their watching his hands caress her butt, hearing her use that baby voice, and don't get me started on watching them make out; its all very uncomfortable. They swear that maybe if I found a guy of my own I wouldn't be so disgusted by them but I don't think I will ever be comfortable watching my two best friends make out.
I clear my throat again and they slowly pull away from each other and look back at me. The two guys that came in with Sterling are also staring at me now. One of the guys has short curly black hair and beautiful hazel eyes that perfectly compliment his light brown complexion. He is leaning against the door frame with his arms folded appearing to be very uninterested in the activities taking place in the room. His black muscle shirt is clinging to his body just right to show off every cut in his body; he must work out often. His gray joggers strongly grasp my attention as you can see the imprint from his "package", and I catch myself just staring for a moment as I look his perfect body up and down. He clearly notices me staring at his imprint as he looks at me, looks down at his joggers, and then smirks while meeting my gaze. I immediately snap my head to look at the other guy.
He is a bit darker than the other guy and has two long French braids coming down that nearly reach the middle of his chest. His eyes are a warm brown color and are sort of like wide slits in his head but beautiful. He has a beautifully soft and warm smile on his face as he watches Sterling and Eryn hold each other almost as if he is watching a sappy romance movie. His t-shirt with the university's logo on it and a pair of dark jeans complement his slender body type. He is not as muscular as the other guy but is still very attractive and seems as though he works out a little too. For some reason I can't help but think about how much I would love to play in his long hair. I bet it's super curly when it gets wet. I am snapped out of these thoughts when Sterling begins to speak.
"Sorry Lolli but you know I can't get enough of my girl," Sterling says looking back down at Eryn and giving her a small peck on her forehead.
I roll my eyes. Lolli is a nickname that Sterling has been calling me ever since I had a lollipop stuck to my butt during lunch in 6th grade. It was so embarrassing and no matter how much I want to forget it he has never let me live it down.
"Anyways," Sterling continues as he and Eryn walk back over to the sofa and plops down with her taking a seat on his lap, " These are some of my frat bros. This long-haired guy is Prince and the evil-looking one is Levi. Guys this is Carmen," he says motioning to me, " and my girl Eryn," he says looking back at them putting emphasis on the word "my".
I immediately look to Levi, but he doesn't say anything, he just nods his head at us nonchalantly which kind of throws me off. Almost as if he notices my confusion with Levi, Prince begins to speak.
"We know all about your girl Sterling," he says shooting him a glare, but I can tell it is in humor. "It's nice to see some new cuties on campus. Hopefully, I will see you at the frat house later," he says questioningly as he is examining my body and smiling, leaning against the wall.
"Sure, we're always down for a party," I say looking back at him then to Levi.
"Good. I'll definitely be looking for you," Prince says and I smile and nod my head in a shy yet flirty fashion as I look back over to him.
Levi is still looking uninterested but now he is staring at me with no emotion on his face. I can feel his eyes burning into my head and I so badly want to look back over to him and say something but then he speaks.
"We need go. We still need to finish getting ready for the fair," he snaps. His voice is deep and flat.
We all look at him as if he is foreign and speaking a language we didn't understand.
Levi groans from our reaction and walks out the door.
"We do need to go," Sterling says and he attempts to stand up causing Eryn to stand up from his lap. "I'll pick you guys up around nine for the party so be ready," Sterling says walking towards the door.
"I'll see you later," Prince says smiling at me and walks out the door behind Sterling pulling it shut.
"Well what the hell was that about," Eryn says in her giggly voice and shooting me a smirk.
"I don't know," I respond. I'm not sure if it was because he was so beautiful or because he was sort of being an ass, but I find the image of Levi in my head as Eryn rambles on and on about what organizations she wants to join.
"Mm hum. Yeah, me too," I say still thinking of Levi, Prince's smile, then back to Levi.
