Gary the desperate

Belle

"Hello Isabelle! I'm Mrs Edna, the headmistress here and you don't even know how much of an honour it is to welcome you as our first senior scholarship student!" She grins. I easily smile back at her "Why thank you ma'am. It's such an honour to be accepted to a school as fantastic as this" I reply truthfully, seeing her chest puff in pride.

"I assume you've already read the transition package so there's not much for me to say. I've sent your books, timetable, map and uniform up to your room already. Here's the key by the way" She hands over a key on a plain chain which I tie around my neck for safekeeping. 

"I'm having a Student Ambassador, Gary show you up to her room" She informs me, just in time for a knock to be heard on her door. "That will be him. You're dismissed Isabelle, I hope you enjoy your stay here" Mrs Edna shoots me a brief smile before stress returns to her features as her attention becomes focused on the paperwork in front of her. 

I stand up and slide out of the door, bringing my two suitcases out before turning to Gary. And may I say Gary is very handsome. With huge muscles, pale blue eyes and thick black hair, it's apparent this split chinned man is indeed a treat for the eye. And entirely conceited. 

His eyes travel up and down my body, making me entirely uncomfortable in my travelling clothes of yoga pants and a blue sweater. "Hello there beautiful. Isabelle was it?" he asks, standing slightly too close to me. I take a subtle step backwards. "Uh, yeah. You must be Gary" I state. He nods, staring me down creepily as he bites his lip. 

Something about this man repulses me. 

"I am. I was told to show you to the private living quarters. I'm living there too you know, with my friend Lee. But he's not important" He states. Well that was... rude. I nod politely as he hauls both of my bags, entirely showing off as her lifts them both with ease and does a few reps. 

The halls are deserted as I arrived in time with the prefects only, doing so to ensure that I got a quick tour of the school before it became filled. "So beautiful, I saw you checking me out" He states. I just blink out of shock "Um I didn't...?" I frown in confusion. He rolls his eyes

"It's only natural." He winks, but this isn't joking. He actually thinks that. Dear lord, let's get a wheelbarrow for that ego, he can't possibly carry it alone. "And I think you're pretty sexy. Wanna go out some time?" He asks, sauntering through the mazes of halls with ease.

"Um I'm really sorry, Gary was it? I'm not actually looking for a relationship right this second. I literally am just starting school" I remind him. He doesn't look put off at all and I mentally groan at his response 

"That's fine. Just hit me up once you've settled into this school." He shrugs. 

"Oh but I don't want you to have to wait for me or anything-" I begin, feeling stressed that he isn't getting the hint. 

"Chill beautiful, I'm not a one girl kind of man anyway. I'm happy to drop them when you feel like being my girlfriend though" He states like it's no big deal. 

I stop as we come into the dorms and stare at him in disbelief. Did he really just say that? "I like my men faithful. And I'm seriously not asking you to drop anybody for me. Please. Why the hell are you moving so fast?" I ask in frustration, struggling to keep up.

"I know what I want" He drawls before his searching eyes lower to my body once more, making me cross my arms in impatience "And what I want is you" He licks his lips. "You're sexy and you're wife material. Consider it, our babies would be so handsome. I like to mix things up every now and then, and virginal normally isn't my style but I bet you'll be great in bed once I show you the ropes. Also, you'll be really popular because I'm the most popular boy in school and no-one else will have you if I can't" He states, smile on his face despite the threatening undertones. 

I step back from this self absorbed psychopath. "You're creeping me out" I state "And I'm not interested" I add bluntly, seeing my door number and rushing over to it, dragging my bags from his grasp. 

"It's fine. You'll come around. You couldn't resist this" He states, flexing in my direction. I swallow the vomit which rose in my throat and let myself into my room, slamming it behind me and leaning on it in relief as I hear the lock automatically click back into place. 

"So you're my roommate".
