Chapter 2
The One With IntroductionsAngelica's POV
Thomas and I made it to John's dorm room and I knocked on the door. A few seconds later, Burr opened it. "Hey, Angie, baby, I guess I was right. Do I get a prize?" He winked at me, leaning against the doorframe. I rolled my eyes. "Oh of course, darling. Close your eyes~" he looked shocked for a second. I had never responded like that. Then, his cocky smirk appeared as soon as it left and closed his eyes, puckering his lips.
I inwardly barfed as I reached for something in my purse. A Warhead. He hated them. I got real close to him, my lips right by his ear. "You ready, boo boo Burr?" I whispered as I opened the small package. He nodded and I smirked, popping the small candy in his mouth. After a second, his eyes shot opened and he scrambled backwards. He spit it out on the floor and I laughed loudly. "I FUCKING HATE YOU, ANGELICA!" He shouted, his face twisted up. I glanced at Thomas and I saw him chuckling. The others were laughing too.
"What'd she do to you, Burr?" Herc asked. "SHE PUT A SPAWN OF SATAN IN MY MOUTH." I rolled my eyes, still smiling as I walked inside the room. "You asked for a prize, Burr~." He glared at me as he got a glass of water, chugging it down.
I took a second to look at everyone here as I sat on the couch. John, Laf, Herc, Burr, Thomas, and I, but there was also three people I didn't know. "Hey guys." I said, greeting them. "Mon ami, who is that homme chaud vous avez apporté?" Laf asked me, smirking. I blushed a bit, understanding what he said. I heard another person snort. He had long, dark hair and beautiful brown eyes. He must understand French. "Laf, stop talking in French, some of us don't understand it." Herc nudged Laf gently. "Fine, Angelica, who is this, how you say? Sexy guy you brought?"
I glanced at Thomas, and his eyes were littered with amusement. "Why, Laf, the only, 'how you say? Sexy guy' I see is you." I winked playfully, mocking his French accent. "Touché." He rolled his eyes. Herc wrapped an arm around Laf and hissed at me. "My Laffy." He mumbled. "Uh, anyway, this is Thomas, he's my roommate."
John coughed while saying "fuckmate," making me blush bright red. I kicked his thigh, seeing as he was next to me on the couch. I looked at Thomas, his face was also lightly blushed. "Uh, anyway, as much as this amuses me, this is my roommate, Maria." Eliza spoke up, gesturing to a curvy woman sitting next to her with bright red lipstick. "Hi Maria." We all said at once. "This is Alexander, my roommate." John pointed to the guy with long, dark hair. "Hi Alexander." We all said again.
"This is Theodosia, my roommate." Aaron said, putting his hand on a pretty girl's shoulder. "Hi Theodosia." We all said once again. "Wow guys we must seem so fun." John said sarcastically. "Hey, we're fun, rumor has it Herc fucked a horse." I smirked at Herc. "For the last time, I was drunk!" We all laughed. "Oh, uh, before I forget, Thomas and I invited his friend and his roommate, is that okay?" I asked. Everyone nodded. "Yeah, it's fine." They chorused.
There was a moment of silence, and then a knock on the door. "Uh, I can get it." Thomas said, seeing as he was closest to the door. "Angie, he's hot, you should go for him!" Eliza whispered to me. I blushed. "Liza, no, you know how awful I am in relationships." She tsked. "Only because you choose the wrong guys." I rolled my eyes, not answering.
"Hey, so, this is my best friend, James." Thomas said. I didn't glance up. "Hey James." We said. "And this is his roommate..." he trailed off. I looked up to see if I knew him, and boy did I know him. "I'm John, John Church." My ex boyfriend introduced himself to the people he already knew. I stared at him, wide eyed. Flashbacks of the heartbreak, and all of the effort that I put into that toxic, broken relationship. I had tried to fix it, I really did.
"Hi, Angelica." He said, staring at me. "Hello." My voice came out emotionless, either that or there was just too many emotions in it that it came out blank. Tears pricked the corner of my eyes as I remembered that night when he came to my house, drunk. I still had the scars.
"Get the fuck out of my dorm." John spoke up. No one moved. "You heard what he said, asshole, get out." I spoke up, anger taking over. He still didn't move. "You better get the fuck out of this room before I make you regret what you did to me." He stepped closer to me. "Angelica, I do regret what I did, I was drunk, I'm sorry." I stood up and punched him. "SORRY DOESN'T HEAL SCARS." He stumbled back, running out the door. He knew I could do worse.
Of all the people that could've been, it had to have been the man who I hated. "I should go." I said, starting to walk away. "Do you want us to come with you?" Eliza asked. I shook my head. "No it's fine, sorry it ended like this." I said, walking out to my dorm.
When I got inside, I immediately went to my bed and curled up in a ball. Great first impression on the newbies.
After what seemed like hours, I heard someone open and closing the door. Thomas must've came home. I heard him come into the room. "Angelica, I'm really sorry I invited them, I didn't know that it was him, and I didn't know you knew him, well I-" I cut him off by looking up at him. "It's okay, Thomas. You didn't know. It's fine." I smiled weakly. He sat on the edge of my bed.
I took this as a time to study him. His hair was super big. His t-shirt was a vibrant shade of magenta. His eyes were dark, and at the moment full of worry. He had a small beard, but not a full one like Gandalf or Hagrid. My heart started to beat faster as I imagined how it would feel like having his scruff scratch my neck as he- Angelica, that's sexual. Stop it.
Anyway, he was just all around hot. And he seems really nice. I glanced away from him, looking at my clock. It was 4:37, and I was starving. "Do you wanna get something to eat?" I asked. He blinked, registering my question. "Oh, uh, yeah, sure." I nodded and got up. "There's a little place down the street, we could check it out." He smiled. "Sure, sounds good."
After fixing ourselves up, we went out to eat.
Woo.
So that happened.
