The door opens and my eyes land on a pair of shimmering emeralds. The same eyes I've found myself falling helplessly into since the day I met him.

A smile tugs at my lips as he pulls his suitcase into the room behind him. "How many blue shirts did you end up packing?" I ask teasingly as I take a step towards him.

He quirks an eyebrow at me, eyeing me up and down in a confused sort of way. "I'm sorry. I'm supposed to have a male roommate" he says, earning a quilted brow from me. "Are you his sister?" I catch on then, rolling my eyes and deciding to play along with his silliness.

"Actually" I smile softly as I take another step towards him, "I'm Riley. I'm your roommate" I introduce myself politely, holding my hand out for him to take as if this really is the first time we're meeting.

"I'm Lucas" he fake introduces, taking my hand in his. The gesture sends bolts of electricity up my arm.

"I love it" I murmur dazedly as I stare back at him.

"I love you" he replies as he tugs my arm and pulls me into his embrace. "I missed you princess."

"I missed you too roomie" I reply, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Roomie" he sighs in contentment. "I like the sound of that."

"Eh" I shrug. "I kinda like how boyfriend sounds too." He chuckles, pecking my lips before pulling away and looking at the empty room, or blank canvas to fill with memories.

"So girlfriend, you gonna help me unpack?"

"Do you even have to ask?" I reply as we pull apart and prepare to settle into our room, the room that somehow brought us together.

Because really, the best things in life come when we least expect it; whether it be meeting your best friend because you're singing in your bay window or meeting your soulmate because of a housing mix-up.

Whatever the case may be, life is made up of happy accidents and once you learn to embrace them you'll find yourself living happily ever after in the most unexpected, perfect way.
