                    “Okay class, we’re going to begin class today by analyzing a movie. I want you to write down stuff about the camera work, script, acting, and anything that pertains to what I’ve taught you. In our next class, we’ll go over it together and discuss everything.” The movie you all were watching was ‘A Walk to Remember’ and as you were watching it, you were captivated by the acting, writing, and even the camera work in some scenes. The movie almost made you cry more than once, and you felt as though the movie was well made, and if they were to ever try and remake it, they would not do it justice. Then the movie came to an end, and the lights turned, revealing many of the students with a look of complete awe on their faces and showing many of them still writing notes.

                  “ Alright, class, before I let you go, I just wanted to announce that I have graded the short films and each one of you did an amazing job. I do want to give props to Ms. Y/n she wrote the script, directed it, and chose an amazing group of actors from our neighboring class.” Everyone looked at you, some giving you dirty looks, and others seemed either unbothered or genuinely happy. You felt some sort of pride knowing that your work was so good your teacher had to share your achievements with the class. The short film took you forever to finish, and it stressed you out so much, trying to find the right theme, actors, and where you needed to film. It took you months to finish, and somehow, you found a way to turn it in a couple of days before the deadline. You truly felt as though you might be able to succeed in the career of your dreams. “Okay, you’re dismissed.” You began to pack your bag and make your way out of the classroom when you received a text. 

                ‘Hey, what time did you want to meet tonight?’ You thought for a second and knew that you still had to clean your room and your last class is at 5:00 pm so you messaged back. ‘6:00 pm if that’s okay with you.’ ‘That works for me’ ‘Okay, I’ll see you then.’ ‘See you then.’ You had about thirty minutes before your next class, so you decided to go ahead and head there and clean your room. As soon as you made it to the room, you began to put away clothes, change your bed sheets, and even take the extra step to organize your little plushies on your bed. You looked around your room and decided it was good enough to let in company, so you rushed to your next class. You were walking down the court yard when you bumped into someone, causing them to drop a couple of things. 

                       “ I’m so sorry, I didn’t see you.” You immediately bent down to pick up their stuff. “It’s okay.” As you stood up to hand them their stuff, you were able to take a good look at her. She had short auburn hair, green eyes, a sharp jawline, and was a little taller than you. She looked familiar. “You’re in my filming class, right?” That’s why she looked familiar. “Oh, yeah, I am.” You responded. “Well, it’s nice to meet you. I’m Ellie.” She extended her hand to you, and you took it. “Y/n.” You smiled up at her. “ I have to go to my next class, but it was nice to meet you.” “It was nice to meet you too.” You went your separate ways and made it to your next class just in time and took out your notepad and pencils going straight into writing notes for your directing class. When you were done with all your classes for the day, it was about 5:30 PM. You went to your dorm and changed into your cute fluffy Sully onesie that was so comfortable. When you got done changing, you received a text from Jordan. ‘Hey, I’m gonna be heading over there soon.’ ‘Okay, see you soon.’ You smiled to yourself and pulled out your computer, pulling up HBO Max so that when they came in, you could go straight into watching the show. You waited a little bit before you heard a knock on the door. When you opened it  Jordan was standing there in their male form wearing an oversized black shirt and gray sweats. “Hey." "Hey." You smiled up at them and moved to the side so they could come , n and you closed the door behind them. They turned around to you and chuckled. "You look cozy." You laughed. "I'm very cozy, thank you." They are so beautif, l you thought. "So I already have the show pulled up on my lapt, p and I have plenty of snacks." "Great." They said, You walked over to your bed and crawled over to the side of the bed closest to the wall. Jordan took off their shoes and sat them near the end of your bed and got in getting themselves comfortable, you pressed play, and the binge watching began. 

                        As you both watch the show, you kept getting distracted by them, the light smile on their face, the soft laughs they would make, and just how ethereal they looked. Your eyes trailed down from their face to their hands. They were big and veiny in their male form. You wondered how they would feel on you, caressing your skin and so much more. You must've been  so in your thoughts because Jordan put their hand on top of yours.

                        "Y/n, did you hear me?" "I'm sorry?" "I was asking where the snacks were." "Oh they're in the first drawer over there."  It got later and later as each episode passed, and you ended up laying on your side, scrunched up next to them while they were sat up to the headboard. At some point, you were in limbo, half asleep half awake, a d you felt their hand on your head.

                        "It's getting late, I should go." You opened your eyes slightly and tilted your head back to look at them. "Or you could stay." "Are you sure?" "I don't kick in my sleep if that's what you're worried about." They chuckled. "Okay,  you stay here. I'll turn off the light and put your computer up." "Okay." As they got up, you rolled over to your other side, having your back face them, starting to drift to sleep. When they got back into bed, there wasn't a huge dip like there was earlier, and their frame was smaller. You wanted to turn to at least see the outline of their female form, but you refrained yourself.         

                        "Night y/n." You hummed. "Night, Jor." Like that you were whisked away into a deep sleep. 

- So sorry for the long wait, I just got done with my first year of college, and it was so hectic and stressful. I should be coming out with more chapters consistently throughout this summer, so please be patient with me. If there you guys have any suggestions for how this story should go, please don't hesitate to leave it in the comments.
