November Rain ~ Bellamy Blake

Chapter four ~ Olivia POV

"Can we just go. I really don't want to stay any longer."
I said goodbye to Rob's parents, my mom, a few friends, and Henry and I didn't want to start crying. I got in the car and quickly put on the music. Sunflower by Post Malone was coming through the speakers.

"Liv, I'm only three hours away, two hours if I hit the gas pedal hard. Just call me and I'll be there." He looks at me with a comforting smile. His hair is a bit messy like we just had a wild night. Well, we didn't. Like never. I hear you thinking, almost three years together. Him being 21 me being 19. But we never just did it. There was this one time though. His parents were on vacation and he had turned his room in the most romantic setting with candles and stuff. But as we were undressing each other my mom called me to come home. And that is how our not existing sex life ended. Rob never made such a move again. I felt so bad for him, but I also didn't want to make the 'first' move. "Earth to Olivia!"  He says as he waves his hand in front of me.

"Sorry, I was just thinking. What did you say?" I asked pushing the thoughts about sleeping together away. "We are almost at the campus. In which section is your dorm again?" "B-22, it's on the right side. Next to the park." I have to admit it looks better than the brochure. "Send me the map, I"ll go search for your dorm as you go get the keys." He smiles as he stops for the big building. "See you in a few minutes!" I yell as I get out of the car.

- Key exchange to the left-

I read as I walk inside. Behind the desk sits a nice lady probably 40 years or maybe a bit younger. "Hello miss, what can I do for you?" She asks politely. "Hi, I'm Olivia Clearwater. I'm here to pick up the keys for my dorm." "Here you go. Two keys, don't lose them." She says jokingly. "Your dorm is B-22. Your bathroom is on the same floor at the end of the hall. Have you read the brochure?" She asks. And I nod as I thanked her.

"Did she just said B-22?" A pretty looking girl with dark blond hair asks.

"Uhm.. yes she did?"

"Awesome! Then we are going to be roomies! Oh, I can already see us hanging out together!" She rambles. "God I'm such an idiot. I totally forgot to introduce myself! Hi! I'm Monica Baltimore. Nice to meet you!" She says as she pulls me into a hug.

"Hi, I'm Olivia Clearwater nice to meet you too. So is this your first year at the University of Miami?" I ask.

"Yes, however, my brother also went here. So it's familiar. Since we share dorms we got to have some classes together." She says.

"Say you've chosen German! I thought it would be a good idea to chose German, but thinking about it, everything in German sounds so angry." I laugh.

"Well as a matter of fact I did chose German since it's becoming another world language. But I really need to show you our room!" She smiles as she tugs my arm towards the dorms.

"Do you want the bed on the right or on the left? Because I already picked the left on since it's on the wall side and I don't like to sleep next to the window." She explains. "Window side is fine by me. But that means we've got the last dorm in a row?" I ask. That would be great so no drunken students have to walk by our door. "Yep so no drunkies walking past our room." She smirks as if she could read my mind. As we walked to the dorms she told me all about herself. Her parents, who have been divorced a couple of years ago, her brother, life. She has always lived in the same town and this was her first time on her own. But her brother would be here to somewhere. It was his last year. "Sorry! I am only rambling about myself." She puts her hand over her mouth.
"That's okay, I kinda like your rambling. Go on tell me more about yourself."

"Uhm no, tell me about you. Is this your first time on your own? What do your parents do? Do you have a boyfriend? If so is he hot?"

Oh god, I almost forgot about Rob. I quickly tell her it was only me and my mother since my dad left when I was little.

"And about that boyfriend thing. His name is Rob and he is standing over there. Waiting for me with the keys."

"Oohhh He's hot" she squeaks.

"I see you've already made friends. Hi, I'm Robert, but call me Rob please."

Well glad they seem to get along. I'm glad I already have a friend here and the fact that I don't have to change dorms.

"Come I'll help you guys with those boxes." Monica says as she gestures to the back of the car.

So thank you for reading so far. I'm trying to make the chapters longer. If you have any suggestions or tips feel free to leave them! 😊
