Okay. This is my first book ever. Please bear with me. Hope you like it.
"Hazel, come on sweetie. You don't want to be late do you?"
"I'm coming, mom. Just a second." I said putting on the last touch of lip gloss.
Today was check in day at the college. Even though I lived in the same town I wanted to stay in the dorms for the full experience. My wonderful parents had graciously agreed to pay for boarding. I was so excited.
The four minute drive was torture. I couldn't wait to see my dorm and meet my roommate. When we pulled up to my building I practically jumped out of the car with my mom laughing as she followed suit.
We went to meet with my RA. I knocked on her door, " Um, hello?"
" Oh hey, you must be Hazel. Nice to meet you." She shock my hand with such force I thought my arm would fall off. She handed me my college information packet and sent me on my way.
I was on the second floor which meant a bunch of rowdy guys keeping me up at night.
After grabbing my stuff my mom and I started to make our way up the stairs. She stopped abruptly and looked at me. " My baby girl. All grown up. Honey, I know that you are only a few minutes from home, but I am going to miss you so much. Come visit all the time. Promise?" She had tears in her eyes making mine start to well up. I hugged her. After a long time we let go.
" I promise Mom. You'll have to kick me out every time I come home. " I giggled knowing that I would be over there so much she would want to get rid of me. She hugged me again and then finished making our way to my dorm.
It was simple. White, one window, two small desks, a mini fridge and two twin sized beds, plus a very tiny bathroom. No one else's stuff was there so I took the bed closest to the window.
My mom helped me make up the bed, set up my dresser and place out my little trinkets and pictures.

When everything was set up we went and got lunch at our house and I said goodbye to both of my parent. I hugged my dad like I was never going to see him again. Then my mom. I got in my car and left.
I got back to campus with a whole afternoon to get settled in, meet my roommate and whatever else I wanted to do.
As I was climbing the stairs I was paying attention to my footing. And- "Oh" I hit what felt like a wall but was actually the very hard, muscular chest of a very hot guy.
