I Will Not Break

Chapter 4:Roommates

"How dare you?" She gasped in outrage, then followed the entire room irrupting in pissed off banshee screeches.
She stepped towards her roommate allies, never  turning her back to me and with a skank eyed glare,  she snarled,  "Big mistake." Her league of bitches followed behind spitting insulting remarks intended for myself.
"Everyone calm down! Now!" A voice suddenly hollered over the girlish cries. The red head girl that was sitting on the couch stood, and faced towards me. The girls immediately went quiet, eager to see what she had to say.

She leaped over the couch and walked closer to me, her head was cocked to the side, and her eyes focused on my steady frown. The room stayed silent, each pair of eyes on her but then she spoke. "My names Beth, and you're rooming with me," She smirked.

The room exploded in squeals again, and Beth took hold of my upper arm quickly rushing me towards the left side of the fire place. Each of the twin girls scurried after us, and down the hall.

.........

"So um... Hi?" I questioned awkwardly at the entrance of what was to be the room I shared with these three odd teenage girls staring at me. Thanks to Beth whom was sitting at a desk in the middle of the room, I was free of girlish screaming but now I was surrounded by awkward silence, and strange staring.

The twins were sitting on a bunk bed that was placed up against the west wall, with a tiny side dresser next to the bunk. Another bunk bed was in the room up against the east wall of the room, identical to the other with a closet on both sides of the room. A small window was visible on the north wall above the desk, but to my surprise it had bars on the outside, and red curtains were drawn open exposing them.

The walls were plain white, and the carpet was a rough brownish color. There was another door in the room, which I was really hoping it was a restroom, because I have to pee really badly.

You'd think that after I had been standing there for over five minutes one of them would stop staring at me and say something, but no. That's not what they want to do apparently.

"So, um thanks for the save back there," I muttered, an the red head smiled. Her eyes still held a bit of caution but also a hint of humor. She stood up, and extended her hand out to me, welcoming me to what was to be my new life.

"As you probably heard back there, I am Beth. One of the only ones in this place that has any sense, and these twins over here are Ollie, and Ellie. The one Sitting on the top bunk is Ollie, and the one on the bottom is Ellie. If you have trouble remembering which is which, just remember Ollie has a small birthmark on the tip of her nose. The bottom bunk over there is your bed, and so is that desk. The bathroom is through that door right there," She pointed to my desperately needed room.

"I'm going to be straight with you. We won't have any problems unless you start crap with us. Got it?" She smiled.

I smirked, entertained by her obvious gesture to the other room. "No problem as long as you aren't like that barbie doll, queen bee back there. I don't do well with orders. Now if you will excuse me, I have to pee." She laughed as I rushed by to get to the restroom.

....

"Feel better now?" Beth chuckled as I skipped over to my bed, giving her a big thumbs up in the process of plopping down on the mattress. Her voice had a deep girlie melody to it, but I had to say this girl knows how to earn respect. She sat in the same chair as before I went to relieve myself thankfully, and the twins watched me cautiously, still a bit nervous.

"So what's your name?" Ollie spoke up, her tone was intrigued. Her eyes watched me anxiously, while she fidgeted with the hem of her skirt. Ollie was the thicker of the two, with the curves I would have died for last year when I went through my gangsta stage... Don't ask!
