Opposites Attract

"This is stupid." I said. I was heavily annoyed by the fact that we had been waiting for thirty minutes to get our orientation bags.

"Patience, girl. The line is moving. See?" My best friend, Juliet said. She's the more relaxed introverted one of our duo.

College orientation. A new fresh start where not a single soul (besides Juliet) will know my past. I can not wait for that to happen, but right now we are currently waiting in line for a bag with papers in it.

"The lines went faster at Cedar point. Who is managing this?" I complained once again. After waiting we finally got our bags and moved into the conference room where they would start with a lecture before splitting us into groups.

In the bags, we received wristbands indicating which group we were in.

"I have ice cream cones on mine!" I exclaimed.

"Awe man. Mine has paw prints. We aren't in the same group."

Juliet and I snag seats in the back far from everyone else. We are trying to soak up as much time with each other before we are forced to join our groups.

A heavier set man, mid to late thirties comes onto the mic.

"Hey,hey, hey! Welcome to Everet Valley University. My name is John and I'm the director of this program!!"

Ugh it's nine am, why is he screaming?

"I am so beyond excited to have you guys here and learn about our amazing school..."

He continues to ramble for a good twenty minutes before we finally break off into our groups for the day.

"Bye, Adrienne. Sit with me at the dining hall if we can." Juliet hugs me before going off to find the other paw prints.

I start my search for the other ice cream cones.

"Hey, what's your wristband print?" I ask a redhead girl.

"Ice cream. What's yours?"

"I'm also an ice cream."

"I'm Ember. Yes, Yes. Before you ask, I was named for my red hair." She says, pointing to wild red hair, which is tied back into a messy bun.

We chuckle about her joke before meeting up with the other ice cream cones. We meet with the other people. The group consists of seven girls and one guy.

"Alright guys and gals, my name is Lucas and I'm your guide slash leader today. We are going to start off with a little icebreaker to get everyone's names." Lucas says.

My gosh, do these people do crack before they come here. It's too early in the morning to be hyper.

"Okay, everyone start off with saying your name, major, if you're staying on campus or if you're commuting and favorite food. I'll start!"

I roll my eyes. They are treating us like preschoolers.

"I'm Lucas, I'm a junior and I'm majoring in biology, I live on campus and my favorite food is pizza!"

Our group goes around before my attention is caught by the single guy that is in our group. He is around 6'2, green eyes, tan skin and buff. His muscles look like they are suffering because he has a shirt on. I can tell that he is still a little bit chubby in his stomach but the more to love.
