She stepped out of the cab and saw what was in front of her , in front of her was not only a historical architectural work, but a place which has been her dream since she was a kid. Fell University was built in 1625 A.D. It was named after Lord Fell who funded for it.

Ella Sterling made her way towards the entrance of the university . The gravel path she was walking on lead her to the main office . Once she reached there she got her schedule and dorm keys along with a map of the university.

She started walking towards her dormitory when suddenly someone bumped into her from behind and she was falling down. she waited for the impact of the fall but it never came. The person she had bumped into had caught her by her arm.

Dane Hemington was on his phone and was making his way over to the main office . He was late and was not grazed with a cup of black coffee when he woke up, making him grumpy. Before he knew it, he had crashed into someone.

''Don't you have eyes and if you do get them checked,'' he snapped because of the lack of coffee in his system.

Ella didn't even comprehend what had happened before she got snapped at.

''It is you who need to get your eyes checked. You bumped into me,"she replied snatching her arm from his hold.

Dane although surprised at the fact that someone just snapped at him didn't show it .

''Couldn't you retort with something better?'' he said.

''Couldn't you have better eyesight or observational skills? ''

''If I didn't notice an elf, it is not really my fault. But if you didn't see a person walking towards you, it clearly is your fault.''

''I don't have eyes on the back of my head, asshole.''

Just as he was about to reply his phone started to ring and then he walked away, just like that, like he hadn't just bumped into her.

She was shocked.

''Dumbass,'' she muttered under her breath and started to make her way to her dorm room.

When she finally reached there after getting lost numerous times she was in awe. The room was not huge it was medium sized but what was more amazing about it was that the ceiling was unnaturally high, there were big glass windows which lite up the room.

She walked into the attached bathroom and in the middle of it was a bathtub, ivory in shade . The whole dorm had somewhat of an ancient edge to it. She walked back into the room and saw that the right side of the room looked occupied. She started unpacking and just like that a few hours went by.

She got dressed into her pajamas and made her way to her bed with a black leather clad notebook and a pen in hand . She got comfortable on the bed and started doing what she did every night.
After some time she realized she was hungry and saw the time, it was 8:25 pm . She again had to change which for her was excruciating. She was about to go out when the dorm door burst open.

***********

Voilet Hemington was what you can call a beauty with brains . After a long day of unproductiveness, she felt tired . She just wanted to sleep now.

As she opened the door she saw that there was someone else there.

Until last year she was in fell academy. Now that she is in fell university, she knows nothing has changed . The roommate will still try to befriend her in hopes of attracting Dane, his cousin or Raymond, her best friend's attention. She sighed imagining another year with a stuck up girl who wears more makeup than clothes.

''Hey. I'm Violet,'' said Violet sticking out her hand with no enthusiasm whatsoever.

''I'm Ella,'' she replied shaking her hand.

Violet looked at the girl in front of her . She did not dress like her previous roommate. Violet thought it was strange although that is not what piqued her interest , what piqued her interest was her eyes, they were blank.

It is said eyes are the mirror of ones soul, but in her eyes she saw nothing. They were a light green shade.

''Where are you from?'' Violet asked, noticing her accent and then smiled to make it sound polite.

''I'm from Hungary.'' Then with a very slight smile added'' I was going to the cafeteria.'' Ella said and with a goodbye, left.

Violet kind of liked her, she seemed good.

Just as she was about to go to sleep, walked in Raymond like he owned the place and placed himself on the soft bed on which Violet was going to lay down on. She pushed him hard, he didn't move an inch, she scowled and sat near his legs. He gave her a cheeky smile and pulled out two grilled cheese sandwich for both of them from his jacket pocket and handed one to her and just like that her irritation vanished.

***********

Ella returned and not hungry anymore as she entered the room she saw a handsome boy .

***********

Dane was lying on Violet's bed playing flappy bird on his phone when he heard the door open. He looked up and then, recognition fell on his face.

Ella knew right then that the person in front of her knew.

''Are you -''

Ella noticed that the sound of shower was no longer audible.

''Don't tell anyone,'' she said ''please,'' then added .
