Super Secrets :An Ability Awakening:

Chapter 7: My New Roomate

    Today was the day. I was finally going to college!

    My dad was a bit over-emotional when telling me goodbyeーas were my siblings. I'd still stop by the house every few days of course, so what was the big deal? I mean, I am the youngest, that's probably why it was a big deal I suppose.

    I pulled into the reserved parking lot for students after I'd checked in. I was in building B, floor 3, room 56. I'm fairly talented at getting myself lost. Hopefully I wouldn't get lost.

    I finally found my room after fifteen long minutes. I softly knocked on the door and then opened it.

It was a pretty big room. A queen-sized bed and desk on each side, as well as one large bookshelf that my roommate and I would share. There was also a large window with seating. It all looked really nice.

I began to unpack a few things when suddenly the door opened, revealing a girl with a ton of suitcases.

"Hey! I'm guessing you're my roommate! I'm Clementine Hopper, pleasure to meet you!" She exclaimed, holding out her hand.

I shook it shyly, "Nice to meet you, I'm Camila Anderson." I smiled.

"So what brings you to this particular college?" Clementine asked while she began to unpack.

"Well, I've really wanted to be a professional hairstylist for quite some time. I'll be taking multiple classes on it and then hopefully earn my degree." I replied. "What about you?" I asked.

"I'm a painter." She grinned and pulled an easel out of her bag. "I want to learn more techniques and hopefully figure out how to run my own painting shop or something. It's kind of far fetched, but it's all I got." She winced at her words slightly.

    "Wow, that's really cool! I've never been good at anything artsy." I chuckled.

    "Well, my motto is, 'Anybody can paint if they try!'" She exclaimed, "I should definitely give you a painting lesson sometime!" She added.

    "Yeah that would be fun!" I agreed.

    There was a soft knock on the door which then opened.

    "Hey, there's gonna be a party in building C tonight. Everybody's gonna be there, will you guys come?" An older girl asked.

    Clementine looked at me with an excited expression,

    "I want to go!" She replied.

    The older girl looked at me, waiting for an answer.

    "Yeah, I guess I'll come." I said with a small smile.

    The girl grinned, "Sweet! The more the merrier! I'm Alexa Jackson by the way."

    "I'm Camila Anderson." I smiled.

    "I'm Clementine Hopper!" Clementine announced happily.

    "Nice to meet you girls, so should I come by later to escort you two there?" Alexa suggested.

    "Yeah that would be great!" Clementine answered.

    "Okay, cool." Alexa smiled. "I'll be here at 8:00, and make sure to dress nice." She winked. "I'd better go, I'll see you both later!"

    "Goodbye." Clementine and I said in unison.

    "We're going to have so much fun tonight!" Clementine squealed.

    "Do you think I look okay?" Clementine asked after she'd gotten dressed for the party.

    I think she looked perfect for the party, unlike me on the other hand. She wore black leggings, black boots, and a silky, light blue top. Silver hoops were dangling off her ears. She had put thick, black eyeliner around her emerald green eyes and wore dark pink lipstick.

    "Yeah you look great! Don't worry about a thing." I assured her.

    "Yay!" She clapped.

"What about me?" I asked nervously, "I'm not the party type, but I worked with what I had."

I had put on black leggings as well as my purple Converse. I wore a long sleeved, coral-colored shirt, a long necklace, and black studs in my ears.

Clementine turned towards me while pulling her long blonde hair into a ponytail, "you look so pretty! You're not even wearing makeup, like how?"

I grinned, "makeups never really been my thing."

"You don't need it! You've got the natural beauty every girl wants. Lucky duck." She chuckled.

I tucked some hair behind my ear, "thank you."

There was a knock on the door and Alexa barged in.

"Hey guys! Wow, you two are looking hot." She chuckled. "You're both going to have a total blast!

Alexa looked gorgeous, she wore a black, long sleeved top, ripped skinny jeans, and tall black boots. Her ears were adorned with pretty earrings and she as well wore eyeliner and lipstick. She was really tall which made her brunette bob look shorter than it was, but she seriously looked like an actual model.

"It's going to be a lot of fun! You look so gorgeous Alexa!" Clementine awed.

"Thanks girlie." She smiled confidently. "So you guys ready to go?"

"Yeah I guess we are." I smiled excitedly.
