Just Roommates (Hardin Scott Story)

Chapter 1

Emily POV

"Emily. Come on. Let's go. We're going to be late" my mother said

I sighed and got up from the bed with my bag. Today I'm leaving the house and going to college. I'm kind of nervous because I'm a shy person and I just want my roommate and classmates to like me. I went downstairs to see my mother is waiting for me.

"You're ready to go?" mom asked me

"Yes" I told her

"Alright let's go" she told me

We got out of the house with my things and headed to the car. During the car ride my mother gave me her usually lecture about being good at school and not fooling around. Also, she told me I shouldn't get a boyfriend because school more important than boys. I just rolled my eyes during her lecture because I can take care of myself and look after myself.

We just arrived at the college and I helped my mom with my boxes.

"Do you know where's your dorm room is?" mom asked me

"Yeah. It's on the second floors I told her and she nodded

We went to the elevator that leads us to the second floor.

"Please behave and make friends with your roommate" mom told me

"I will mom don't worry" I told her

"This is the room number right?" mom asked me

I looked at the room number it says 230 and looked back on my phone to see it's the right number.

"Yeah it's the right one" I told her

Mom opened the door and immediately we saw a boy who was wearing a black especially he has a leather jacket. He didn't notice us coming in because he had headphones in his ears.

"Oh no you're not staying here with a boy" mom told me and that's the boy finally looked up at us

"Hi. You must be my new roommate" the boy said held out his hand for me to shake but my mom didn't let me

"You're not shaking that boys hand" mom told me

"Mom" I whined

"No. We are going to find a new dorm" she said as she left

"I'll be back" I told him and he nodded

I followed my mother until she reached to the elevator. I stopped her before she could press the button.

"Mom stop it" I told her

"What do you mean? You're not sharing with a boy" she told me

"Come on. Did you see him? He will be in his side of the room. He won't notice me and also I bet you we won't do anything" I told her

"I don't know about this" she told me

"Please mom. I know you trust me. You know I won't let any boy touch me or hurt me" I told her

"Fine but if he touches you or kisses you. We are getting you a new roommate. Got it" she told me

"Got it. Now can we go back?" I asked her

"Fine" she said as we went back to my dorm to see the boy is still there

"Sorry about that" I told him

"No it's okay and don't worry I won't be in the dorm room all the time. I won't do anything to her. I'm not that kind of person" the boy said and I noticed he has a English accent
