Mara
Goodbye, high school.
Hello, University of LA.
Yep this is the day. I'm leaving today to get set up in my dorm room. My brother, Austin is helping get ready for the next 4 years of my life.
"My baby" my mom said almost sobbing, giving me a big hug. "I'm okay mom alright I'm just going to college"
She sniffs. "I know your just an hour and half away. I wish your father was here so he could say goodbye but he had to go to an important meeting.
I give her one last big hug and get in the car with Austin.
I wave goodbye as we drive off."I'm gonna miss you guys"I said with a sad smile.
"Come on don't get all sad with me Mar, you've been dreaming about becoming a professional athlete"
"Just because I got a scholarship for Soccer doesn't mean I just wanted to do that for all my life" I said defending myself.
"I wanna be a author and be a athlete"
He sighs.
"Okay I just want you to fulfill your dreams that's all"
"I know and I will be alright " I said reassuring him."Also no boyfriends because I don't want a pregnant sister coming back on winter break"
"Whatever plus you know I never get distracted from my work" I said rolling my eyes.
We finally arrived to the campus and I get out the car. I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
I open my eyes and look at my surroundings.Austin pops open the trunk and hands me one of my suitcases. "Wow, I'm going to college" I said looking around.
"Yeah, your not my little sister anymore" he said wrapping his arm around my neck and rubbing my head. "I'm still your little sister I'm just going to college"
We stood there silently.
"Is it bad that I'm nervous?" I asked biting lip.
"It's okay to be nervous but you'll do great. Now we should get you settled" Austin said giving me hug.We walk through the campus entrance and sign in and get my dorm key. We start looking for my dorm. After about 10 minutes we finally found my dorm.
We walk into the building and I head to my room. As we walk down the hallways girls from surrounding rooms start gawking and drooling over my brother. He then smiles at them and give them a wink.
Ew.
We open the door to my room. It was medium sized. One bed on one side, the other on the other side. There was a bathroom on the side and a mini fridge.
Ooh remind me to restock that pleasee.
"Ok grab the last 2 bags" I told Austin and he nodded before leaving.
I start rummaging through my stuff when I hear someone cough.
I turn around to see a boy holding a suitcase and a schedule in his other hand.
"You're in my dorm room?" He said rudely. So long to a good start.
"Yeah, dude you got the wrong dorm" I told him rolling my eyes and start doing what I was doing before.
"Look you're in my room. Just get out"
I turned around irritated and walked up to him.
"Look, I don't appreciate your hostility and I'm not in the mood for your bullshit so, if you don't mind leaving" I said waving goodbye.
Then there was a knock on the door. It was a guy about 6'3, light build, and blond hair.
"Hey guys how's it going here?" He said enthusiastically.
"Not great"
"Bad"
He frowns.
"What happened?"We started talking at the same time and getting louder ; trying to be louder than the other.
"Okay, let me see your schedules"
We hand him our schedules and he inspects them."Oh ok I see" he said looking up at us.
"What is it? She's in my dorm right? Yeah she is, leave" he started to push me towards the exit.
"Well no"
I smile devilishly.
"Ahaha, you have to leave" I said turning around and sticking my tongue out at him.
"Well not exactly"
We looked confusedly at him.
"Then what is it?" I asked looking at him."You guys are roommates"
Hope you liked it
