Seducing Styles

Moving In

CHAPTER 1



It was just the other day when I received my last box of belongings from my parents. They were shipping my clothes and simple things that I would need in my new apartment for college. Why didn't they just drive and drop it off for me? Or why aren't I in a dorm? Well, I am 18 year old, Cassidy McClare and I am in a study abroad program for my college. My chosen place of study was of course London! I am practicing for a Fashion degree and, hopefully, major! What other place is the center of originality and style? No where other that the famous London.



I was walking up the four steps that led to my unknown, assigned roommate's and my apartment door. As I placed the metal key into the lock I was quickly greeted by a warm embrace. Too shocked to even understand the situation at hand, I stumbled a little backwards. This was the first time I'd be meeting my roommate face-to-face.



"Omg! Hey! I'm Crystal. Your roommate. You must be Cassidy." She released my fragile body and back up a few steps allowing me to enter the doorway and into the foyer. As my eyes adjusted a bit, I began to notice the complete features of her appearance. He had long cascading light brown hair that made her blue eyes stand out twice as much. Crystal was average height, skinny and obviously-by the tight busted high/low dress and spiked Timberlands- obviously had an amazing taste in fashion.



"Hello! Yeah, I'm Cassidy. I should have my stuff already here right?" I really didn't know what to say... I mean we just met and would be spending the next 4 years together so I thought we would have enough time to get to know each other.......later. I always wondered why my Dad thought I was stand-off-ish; I just don't like people.



"Woah! your American!" She seemed utterly and completely shocked at the fact. "Oh and yes all of your boxes are in your room. I never would have guessed that my roommate and I would be reverse twinning!"



I really couldn't understand what she was saying, I mean I obviously hear her and I speak English but I guess it was the slang and common phrases that were getting lost in translation. "Reverse twinning?" I asked trying to get accustomed to my new environment.



"I'm a Brit. Your American. I have brown hair. You have blonde hair. I have blue eyes. You have brown eyes. The only thing that is the same is our figure." I could already tell that the next 4 years would probably be the worst of my life, however, you always have to make important sacrifices for the things you love, it's just apart of your everyday struggles.
