-Sage-

Chapter 1

Aubrey's Pov

I walked into the brown oak wood door frame. I took a minute to look around the big white washed walled building. I noticed there was a desk right by the door with a lady behind it sorting papers. She heard me shuffling into the hall of the lobby with my blue suit case and bags. Looking up from the papers she was reading she greeted me with a "Hello what can I do for you today." I gave her a broad smile and asked "Hi I'm Aubrey I'm checking in" she smiled politely back at me and started to go through a file full of papers "Awe I found it Aubrey Houston right?" "Yes that's correct! Do I have a room?" "Of course here's your key. Your room is 234 and building 6. Oh and before you come running back trying to change roommates we have no spare dorms at the moment so at least try to put up with your roommates behavior" I chuckled and replied with "They can't be that bad I'm sure they will be just as bad as I am if not than I am probably going to be a pest" The receptionist just laughed and gave me a 'we'll see' look.

I walked out of the main campus building and walked around the campus amused by its beauty. I walked about a half a mile before reaching building 6. When I walked in I bumped into a girl with red auburn hair. She took a step back for me. Looking at me up and down with her brown hazled eyes saying "You must be the new girl , Aubrey. I'm Ashley" I gave her a bright smile and answered " How do you know my name?" She looked at me at like I was stupid and said " what do you mean. Everyone knows who you are. This dorm hasn't had anyone new for a year except you and the hot bad boy who just came back to college after dropping out. When new people enter this building the word spreads pretty quickly" I was curious as to why they had built a brand new dorm. A bunch of scenarios ran through my head like did they have horrible rooms or were there bugs " what ? Why?" "Because there's a new dorm on campus and lucky for you you've got stuck in the old one" I was trying to let her words sink in. I finally realized that basically I might be kind of screwed because there must be a reason for them building a new dorm and me being stuck in the old one. "Well I guess I'm just unlucky. could you show me to my room?" I asked politely. We finally arrived to room 234 after about five minutes the red haired girl had disappeared. I took out the Silver 234 room key and put it into the key hole slowly turning it and lightly pushing the door in. I wondered around the big sized room that I walked into I noticed a blue couch facing towards a fireplace with a smart TV above it. I turned to my left and noticed a shirtless tall, well built guy in the kitchen making a bologna sandwich on the marble counters. He turned around and scowled at me " I'm not in the mood for playing around so you can leave" I gave him a disgusted look. How could he be so cold and rude? It didn't make sense. I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard a man clear his throat. I looked up " I'm sorry to burst your bubble but I'm not here for pleasure. This is my dorm and I'm guessing your my roommate. If you would excuse me I'm going to get settled in" Closing the door behind me I walked into the room where the door was open and the walls were bare and the beds covers were neatly tucked into the side. Everything was snow White . Thankfully I Knew where a home Depot was at near here. Than I could paint the walls and maybe get some cute decorations from a arts and crafts store near by. I strolled over to the couch,taking the remote of the arm of the couch, turned on the TV and starting to watch orange is the new black ignoring my roommates existence. He slowly walks over to the couch side with a sandwich in his hand and sits a couple inches away from me. After about five minutes into the next episode my roommate stares at me intently. I turn to face him and he looks surprised that he got caught I ask with a hint of sarcasm " Can I help you with something?" He smirks and replies "I don't know , do you need help with anything?" "Yeah maybe you could tell the creep that's sitting next to me to stop staring at me that would be well appreciated." He chuckled to himself and responded "oh Sweetheart don't flatter yourself I was staring off into space" I rolled my eyes and continued to watch my show. I looked at the black clock on the wall and noticed it was 10 pm. I realized I had class in the morning so I knew if I didn't go to bed i might just fall asleep in class.I got up from the couch but got pulled back by a muscular arm and turned around snatching my hand from him. He stared into my eyes with an emotionless stare. He spoke up "I didn't catch your name by the way . I'm Sage." "That's good to know but I don't really care I'm going to bed" I spited out. He looked stunned by my words as if I just misspoke. I turned around walking in a fast manner determined to make it to my room this time. I looked back and called out "The names Aubrey". He was about to say something but before he could I accidentally shut my door in an aggressive manner. I unpacked my neatly folded clothes, got my books ready for my first class, pulled the cover's back on the bed, crawled under them, and lightly drifted off into a deep slumber.
