Wasted Knowledge - A Harry Styles Fan Fiction

Chapter 4

“Flight 2365 to London will land in 20 minutes. Thank you for flying with UK airways. The sound of the flight attendant over the loud speaker woke me up. I think he just said we were landing. I leaned over Paige and attempted to look out the window to see if it was true and it was. Fog covered around the plane. We were really in London. I could see all the green meadows from my window and some farm animals. I was so excited to be here. “Paige, Paige we are finally here!! PAIGE” “alright Jasmine I’m awake I’m awake are we actually here?” “Yes Paige we are look” “HOLY SHIT we are!!!” The plane finally decides to land and everyone is in a hurry to get off this plane we have been sitting on, for what feels like forever. And I was right. It was bloody freezing. It was so much colder than Australian winters that’s for sure. As soon as I got off the plane I ran straight into the bathroom at the airport and changed into my Adidas tracksuit pants and then slipped over my pink jumper. I couldn’t believe I was actually here. All we needed to do now was wait for a taxi.

We sat on a bench outside Heathrow Airport with all our suitcases and waited for a taxi. Well this took forever. Every time we called one they would just keep driving away. After 30 minutes of trying we finally got one. I could already start and feel the jet lag kicking in. This is going to be a fun few weeks of trying to adjust to a new time zone. Let the adventure begin. “Could you please drive us to The University of London. We are staying at the campus” Paige told the taxi driver” “Sure love. It’s about an hours drive from here. So sit tight and enjoy the scenery of London.” The taxi driver said. This taxi driver had bright rosey red cheeks and brown hair. He had a small moustache and his accent was British. This is what I love about the UK. The accents are so pretty. I really wanted one. And I hope because I’ll be living here for at least 4 years I might pick one up myself. We passed the London Bridge, The London Eye and The Big Ben. I am so excited to explore London on weekends and go on lots of tours. This is going to be amazing. Living here. We finally pulled up to a large brown building. This must be the campus. A tall brick clock stood bold and tall in the middle and when we stepped out the car it looked even bigger. “Money please” I heard a small voice say” “Excuse me lasses but you will need to pay for your car ride to here” “oh right sorry” I handed the taxi driver his money and he said thank you and drove off. We walked inside the tall black gates and tried to find the administration office. A sign told us to take two lefts and the office should be there. We went the right way and ended up in the office. “Hello I’m Jasmine Packer” “and I’m Paige Smith” The lady didn’t look up from her keyboard and she continued to type” “Oh I’m sorry girls. You said you were Jasmine Packer right?” “Yes that’s me” I strongly stated “We have been waiting for you to arrive. You are the girl from Australia?” Yes” “Well I’m Candice and I’m head of the administration office here at The University of London. I help new students who live here on campus settle in and get used to the environment. If you ever need anything on the back of your door in your new room you can call me” She was a very confident woman. I would say she’s about 35 years old. She wore way too much make up in my opinion but I shouldn’t be judging anyone. I’m lucky enough that I was given this opportunity. We walked down a corridor and entered a lift. “This is the way to your rooms on this side of the building” Candice proudly said”. “Your room will be 58G. All the students on this level will most likely be doing the same study as you and classes. There are boys and girls on this level. The showers are down the far left. There are only 5 showers so you will have to take turns. You have a toilet in your room and two double beds. There are two desks and a window so you can have a view. Now here are your keys. Have a forgotten anything?” Candice’s face started to look abit puzzled. “oh yes that’s right we have dorm inspections. So make sure it’s clean and there are no opposite sexes in your room this is what we kindly ask for when staying on the campus. Now remember you need anything just give me a ring and I’ll answer. Goodbye ladies” Candice finally left down the hallway of level 58. Her bright smile soon was gone when the lift doors closed. “I dibs the bed on the right” Paige sounded very determined about this. “Yeah whatever I don’t mind”. We entered the room and it was bigger than what I thought. The right bed was red and covered in red pillows and the left bed was grey. I didn’t mind about the colour. I put my stuff on the side and fell back on the bed. “This bed is so soft and comfy. I can not wait to finally cuddle up into this bed and watch movies or read books” “same here Jas same”. I lifted myself from the bed and walked around the room to explore it about me. The toilet was nice and it smelt like peaches, which I didn’t mind. The desk, which was mine, was a dark hazelnut colour and the chair was grey. It was comfy. I loved this room and the view from the window was amazing. I think hands down we had the best room. “Come on Jas lets go explore” I nodded in agreement and we locked our room and went for a walk. To see what the bathrooms are like and the people we would be sharing this level with. A tall brunette was walking up towards us. She was actually really tall I have never seen anyone that tall before. As she got closer I could see she had a nose piecing and a short skippy top on. He left hip bone was covered in small rose tattoos and she had a pircing on her right hip. “Hey ya I’m Alex. Are you new around here?” Her smile was beautiful. “yeah I’m Paige and this is Jasmine. “Oh you’re the chick that was coming from Australia right? “yes I am.” “Oh all the teachers and professors have been talking about you. We haven’t had an Australian here in 2 years. So every one is pretty excited.” She smiled again. “I’m very happy to be attending here” “Well I hope to see you girls around. I’ve got to get back to my room. My boyfriend is waiting there.” “Oh… bye.” I thought boys weren’t allowed in girl’s rooms? It’s none of my business. We walked down to the hallway and went to check out the showers. They weren’t too bad. The lights weren’t too bright and the shower curtains were a green lime colour. I couldn’t complain because I was here. Attending this university. “Oh Harry stop it” shit. Someone was in here. I tugged on Paige’s arm and she looked at me and started laughing. I covered her mouth because I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The shower curtains were moving and sitting on the sink was a bottle of alcohol. I don’t know what type because I’ve never seen it before because I’ve never drunk before. Paige whispered, “they are having sex” “No they are not. Don’t just assume that.” I quietly replied. The shower curtain was pulled back and Paige and I stepped into the shower next door so we wouldn’t get caught. We peaked through the ugly lime green curtains. A tall curly hair boy stepped out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist. His skin was covered with tattoos. He had a massive butterfly inked onto his torso. And two birds on his chest. We got a glimpse of his face and man was he cute. I can just imagine what his hair would be like when it’s dry. “Well Gabby thanks for that” he had a smirk across his face. He licked his pink berry lips and walked over to the mirror. “I shall see you when we meet again.” He slipped his slippers on and walked with just his towel on out of the community bathroom. Fuck sake his accent was to die for. We had to wait for the girl that goes by the name of Gabby I think to come out of the shower so then we could leave. She finally stepped out. She put a purple lacey bra on and had a sip of the alcohol substance that was in the bottle that was sitting on the sink. She then put on black stockings and a short mini leather skirt and a red t-shirt that exposed all her boobs. She slipped her nose ring; eyebrow ring and lip ring back into the right spots and left the room. We were able to finally leave. Paige could finally let out her laugh. “What the fuck was that” Paige was in tears. “Well I think you were right. They were doing something in there. Just promise me that when I need to have a shower you will come with me” “promise” I quickly ran out of the bathroom grabbed Paige’s hand and looked over to her. I wasn’t looking where I was going and the tall tanned boy from the shower was now right in front of me and he didn’t look happy. “What the fuck. Can you watch where you are going?” Shit. He didn’t sound too happy. I should have been looking where I was going. “Sorry I didn’t see you there.” “No shit. Ugh” he let out a huge sigh and walked away in a huff. He turned 3 doors down from our room and went in He wasn’t nice at all. I couldn’t believe someone that rude was on our level. He’s going to be fun to be around. Not. “Jas don’t worry about it. He looks like an ass hole. “I know. I’m so tired I need to sleep now the jet lag is killing me inside.” Paige pulled the key out of her pocket and we finally got changed into our warm pajamas and snuggled into our new beds. Well today was interesting. Sort of. Hopefully tomorrow will be a lot better. But right now I needed sleep.
