Slowly edging my way out of the room and back toward the others in my dorm I couldn't help but think what a god-sent it was to have Daniel as a dorm mate at that exact moment. Throwing my self clumsily on to the couch I curled up over the others with my head in Scott's lap. Looking back across my dorm mates I couldn't help but notice how exceptionally good looking all these boys were, Yummy.
A few minutes later Daniel re-entered the room to inform us of the results.
"D-dad s-s-s-said t-they got a-a-a n-new dr-dr-drunk-ky in las-last night who-who t-th-they took took a photo o-of s-s-so t-t-they're jus-jus-just going t-to r-re-replace you wi-with him. It-s sh-should be d-done b-by th-the end-d of th-the we-week."
"Oh god, thank-you Daniel. Thank-you thank-you thank-you."
I wrapped my arms around him pulling him into a tight embrace. He suddenly took on a awkward stiffness as he attempted to hug me back.
"I-It's o-okay. hones-s-st"
The rest of the evening was spent in our dorm relaxing and getting to know each other. Although my first impressions of Warren had proven to be cocky and arrogant as the night wore on I found him to be gentle and kind, I could almost feel myself becoming attracted to him.
Scotty was a great as ever. Although we hadn't known each other all that long, I felt a connection with him. He was like a brother almost. Not a younger one like Luke and Jose, an older one. Like he would look out for me and protect me from the others. It was a feeling I was growing quite attached to.
Daniel was cute. Although it was hard to understand him through his stutter and his shy mumbling he seemed really sweet. I think he had a bit of a crush on me. As much as I like Daniel, I wasn't looking forward to the day, if it ever came, that he would pluck the courage to ask me out. As I really didn't want to have to turn him down. I could imagine becoming good friends with him though.
Carter and Mike held very similar personalitys. The only difference being Carters cockiness coming out as what seemed like superiority over everyone else, and Michael’s as arrogance. Michael was more ruff and tumble than Carter. I knew they were both going to be good friends too.
As the clock ticked six thirty I apologized to the boys, telling them I would need to go change for dinner. Just as I was standing to leave who should knock on the door but Mr. Blake. Butterflies erupted in my tummy and I all of a sudden felt really nervous.
"Nean. Your farther sent me up with this for you. He said he wants you to wear it tonight for dinner?"
"Oh yeah, I was Wondering when that would get here. Thanks. Uh Mr. Blake this is Daniel, Carter, Michael, Scotty and, Warren. They're my new room mates." Something held me back from saying Warrens name, almost as if to speak it aloud were to betray someone.
"Ah, nice to meet you all. I'm Mr. Blake. I'll be taking you senior Phys Ed classes if you're doing any."
Leaving the boys to their own I slid into my room to change. The dress was once again nothing I would want. The other students had to wear their uniform this evening, but as mine wouldn't be arriving till at least the day after tomorrow I was stuck in my fathers choice of clothing for now.
Unzipping the full length dress bag I pulled out yet another red dress, What was with my father and dressing me in red? It was full length, just great, and it was intricately embroidered It had one shoulder and the entire bodice was made of lace. The front was pulled up in large, hooping gathers.
With this dress being a little less revealing, I pulled my hair up into a loose bun. As the dress was just that little bit to long to wear with flats, I had to resort to plain black stilettos. As much as I hated it, I had to admit it looked brilliant on me. Running the lip gloss brush over my lips for a final touch up, I headed out to the dorm lunge and my awaiting dorm mates.
All eyes turned to me and all jaws dropped to the floor. Awkward.
"Nean, You look amazing."
I was used to Mr. Blake's compliments by this stage, just not around company.
"Uh, thanks Mr. Blake."
I subtly put emphasis on the Mr to warn him of the border line we had crossed so many times in each others company.
Student teacher relationships were not looked upon lightly. Especially in the best boys school in the world. Unfortunately is didn't go unnoticed by Warren who gave me a weird sideways glance before slipping on his blazer and taking my arm.
"We were thinking, and we decided it was best to pretend that one of us is your boyfriend. You know get the others to back off a bit?"
"Yeah that's a good idea. Who's Willing to be the envy of the school?"
"I'm fairley sure they all are 'Nean. I mean look at you. But we decided Scott because every one knows not to mess with him."
I once again shot Mr. Blake a sideways glance as Warren did the same to me over Mr. Blake's previous comment.
"Okay, Scotty it is. Come 'er my new lover boy."
I couldn't help but laugh at that. The prospect of dating Scotty seemed outlandish. I may as well go ask Joseph on a date. With that Scott took my arm from Warren and led me out of the dorm, soon to be followed by every boy on the top floor. All whispering and trying to act casual as they took in the newly spectacular sight that is me.
I am so sorry at how long this took to get out. No excuses, purley laziness. Its been sitting written and unedited for weeks. I'm so sorry.
