Roommates

"Good morning!" Sky says, coming into the kitchen the next morning. I mumble a greeting and sip my coffee. "What's wrong with you?" She asks pouring herself a cup of coffee. "I'm just tired. Have you heard from Fletcher?" I ask. I only ask cause he's supposed to be here to walk me to class since I don't know where it is and he has the same class. "Not since yesterday, but he said he'd be in around eight. It's seven forty right now. Go on and get ready, I'll clean up." She smiles and picks up my plate along with my mug. "Thanks, Sky." I smile back and walk into my room. Opening my closet, I find a coral, lace romper and put it in. It's got sleeves that go to my elbows and a brown belt around the waist. Then after curling my hair, I put on my favorite pair of black wedges. Finally, I put on a little bit of eye shadow and some mascara. "Dakota!" Sky yells thirty minutes later. I walk out into the hall and see Fletcher leaning against the doorway. He's in a black button up and blue jeans. The first two buttons are undone and the sleeves are rolled up to his elbows. "You're ten minutes late." I growl, walking past him and into the living room. "I had things to do and you don't have to be in class for another ten minutes." He says, shutting the door. "Whatever, let's just go." I mumble a good bye to Sky and follow him out to the quad. "Yo, what's up man?" I turn around to see Hunter and Flynn walking up. Hunter smiles at me and pulls me into a side hug. "Hey! How are you?" I ask, looking over to Flynn. He shoots me a wink, causing me to blush. Fletcher clears his throat and shoots Flynn a dirty look who just shrugs. "Nothing much, just showing Mrs. Boring to class." He replies to Hunter's question. "Whose that? Dakota? She's actually a really fun gal." Hunter says and Flynn nods. "oh, no. Did you brain wash them too, Dakota?" Someone cooes from behind me. I turn around to see Audrey walking up. "Ohmygod! Audrey!" I yell and throw myself into her arms, causing her and I to fall on the grass. "Are you trying to kill me?" Audrey jokes. "Maybe." We both burst into laughter and Flynn holds a hand out. I smile and grab his hand. He pulls me up and we almost fall as I slam into his chest. Placing my hands on his cheats to steady myself, his go to my waist and I let out a giggle. "We'd love to stay and talk, but we have to get to class." Fletcher groans, pulling me off Flynn. "Right! I'll see you guys later and Audrey, you know my dorm number. I'll be there after classes and we'll go for lunch." I call out as Fletcher drags me away. "Be careful with Flynn, better yet, stay away from him." He says when we reach class. "You're not my father! I'll see whoever I want, stop acting like my boyfriend." I march into class.
