"Have you ever watched Call Me By Your Name?" Yara asked Sloan, who wasn't even paying attention.

"yEs!" Asha coughed out.

"Asha, we all know you've seen it, you literally did not stop talking about it when it came out. I was asking Sloan." The three girls were sitting at a round table in the far left corner of the fourth floor in the library so they could get work done.

It was a Friday afternoon and none of them had class, the only reason they had traveled to the library instead of staying in their apartment was because they felt they could get more work done. They were mostly wrong, while they were walking to the campus library the sky began to darken, then the wind began to howl pushing their hair in all sorts of directions. And after they finally reached the library on campus the sky was pitch black and it felt as if they were walking in a swamp. Well, at least it felt as if Sloan and Yara were walking in a swamp. Asha was the smart one and had looked at the weather app which said there was a 95% chance of a thunderstorm. The app was right.

Sloan, who was intensely staring at her computer screen and then back at her notebook in attempts to get the math right for her nanoelectronics class all while trying to ignore her wet socks wasn't paying any attention to the question at hand.

Asha sighed because she couldn't talk about CMBYN, "Sloan... she's talking to you," Yara rolled her eyes at Asha's sigh and looked towards Sloan who finally peeled her eyes away from the book over to Yara.

"Have either of you guy gotten 7c on page 211?" She asked, pointing her pencil down towards the question.

"No, we were waiting for you to get it. Anyways, have you ever seen Call Me By Your Name?" Yara questioned again. She was pretty sure she already knew the answer, Sloan liked a very particular genre of movie, and CMBYN did not fall into that category, Sloan was more of a science fiction person.

"No, I haven't. Isn't that the movie Ash went on and on and on about?" Asha nodded her head with a wide smile on her face. "Isn't the kid who was in the movie coming here? I think he was in Interstellar, that was a good movie. Quite a few errors, but good movie." Both Yara and Asha had their mouths agape and staring at Sloan with a complete 'are you shitting me?' look.

"Timmy was barely in that movie!" Asha yelled out.

"Ash, shut up. We're in the library still!" Sloan harshly whispered.

"Oh come on, it's fucking pouring out there. Look around there's no one even here." Asha was right, but Sloan didn't want to give her the satisfaction in letting her know. The three of them met when Yara got to their tri-dorm for the first time freshman year and the other two were setting up their side of the room. Yara, Sloan, and Asha both went random on the roommate application which resulted in them being put in a room together.

There are two extremes on the scale of roommates. On one end you have "I hate you and I never want to see you again" and on the other you have you're going to be in my wedding party" they're more on the end of wedding party. The three now have an apartment on campus together none of them were sure how they got so lucky to find perfect roommates and friends.

"It's tomorrow, isn't it?" Sloan questioned.

"Yeah, wait! Tomorrow is Saturday," it dawned on Yara, "why are we doing homework right now instead of tomorrow morning?" Ash nodded her head in agreement.

"I thought you wanted to get it done early so we didn't have to worry about a lot of it over the weekend." Sloan answered. "Do you want to go do something else?"

"Um hell yeah," the two girls answered simultaneously.
