Chapter 3 {The roommate}
~~~~~~~~
"Will you wear this?" Alexina said, pointing at my mustache shirt.
"Oh my god, you and mustaches" I say, laughing.
"Can I keep it?" She asks. "Pweaaaase!!!"
"Alright, alright! But stop the puppy face though!" She can be so funny sometimes...
At least she's in the mood to make me laugh. Leyla is in the corner just helping me packing some stuff. She's being so quiet. I guess she's sad I'm leaving? No, no one really cares about me.
Today is the day I am leaving for LA, and my friends are here to help me to pack all of my stuff. I wish Anthony was here so I could at least say goodbye to him...
Wait. Why am I always thinking about him? He ignores me since 8th grade, and I'm in college now. What's wrong with me?
"Sky are you alright?" Leyla asks, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Um, yeah." I reply.
"Ok then.." She says, confused.
"I know you're thinking about something. What is it?" Alex asks me.
Great. That could not go better.
"You'll judge me so bad.." I look down.
"We're you friends! Tell us Skylar, please."
"I was thinking of, uh, Anthony..." I almost whispered.
"Oh that 8th grade guy? Oh c'mon get over it!"
I should have said something else..
"I knew you would judge me..." I say, looking down again.
"I'm not judging you. Besides, you'll maybe meet your new Anthony in Los Angeles?" She winks and I laugh.
...
"Flight 36, now boarding" A lady said through the speakers.
"I have to go.." I say to my friends, litterally crying.
Tears stream down both their faces as they said "We'll never forget you Skylar"
"I'll Skype you both when I get there, okay?" I give them the last hug.
The last hug before my new life.
"Flight 36, now boarding" The lady repeats.
I wish she could repeat and reapeat this sentence so it never stops, so I could stay here forever. I don't wanna leave. I don't wanna leave my friends, my country, the snow, pretty much everything...
When I climb into the plane I choose a seat right next to the window. I plug in my earphones and put on my favorite songs playlist, so I don't get too bored.
I look outside as the plane goes off, and I slowly drift asleep.
...
It's been a few days since I've arrived here, and I truly love LA. It's so pretty! I always wanted to live in a hot place without snow during winter. I just don't like to put on bikinis and stuff, you know.
The first day, I unpacked my stuff into our new house. It's pretty big and I have a really cool room! When I entered the room, there were pictures everywhere. Of my friends, family, mom... But then it hit me. A picture of me and...
Anthony. My dad really put effort into this as I can see, but I was trying to get over him. Urgh...The second day, I did nothing, really. I cried alot, went on Skype with my friends and cried even more. My father tried to make me eat but I couldn't. I completely lost my apetite. I hate leaving all of my memories behind me and starting all over. With all the pictures suspended on my wall, it's making in even harder for me to get through it.
The third day, I really looked like a zombie. I barely ate, drank or did anything. My eyes were all puffy and red because of all the crying.
Today is the fourth day here, and it's the day I'm going to college. Today I'm moving into a college room, and I'll have to start everything, all over again.
...
"I am sorry, Miss Rose. We can't do anything about it. The college rooms are full. We can't do anything about it."
"But.. Can you just move him to another room of something?"
"I'm sorry again, Miss Rose, we can't move him. It's his second year here. And there are no other rooms for you."
Well great.
As I entered the college this morning, the room I was assigned was already taken. I talked to the principal and they just moved me into another room - with a guy. I don't wanna live with a guy! I am a girl and I need some privacy. A lot of privacy. At least I'm only spending half a year here, since we're in february. I still can't believe it.
In the elevator I can't stop thinking, Who will that guy be? I'm the unluckiest student...
As I enter the room, I see him. He smiles at me and I close the door behind me.
"Uh, hi.. I'm Skylar. I smile.
"Oh hi Skylar. I'm glad to be your roommate!" Says the boy with green eyes. Pretty green eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who is that boy with Pretty green eyes?
I can't wait to write chapter 4. I'll wait until tomorrow though, because it's already 1 am. I need sleeeeeeep!
I'm on school break, so I'll write way more than the usual. :)
