And They Were Roommates

Party Time!

"So let me get this straight? You think you dance to a different song because you see a really great dancer dancing to that song but you don't want to dance with the super talented dancer?" Whatever Taylor said made absolutely no sense. "Was that even English? What's that supposed to mean?" Hayley and Taylor both laughed at my obvious confusion.

"Listen, what I'm trying to say is that I think I might be into dudes because I think I'm into Samuel." I pulled our my phone and saw it was 15 minutes til 5. "Guys, it's getting late and I'm not sure on what to do. No matter what, at the end of the day I still have to walk my gay or straight butt back into that room and have an awkward tension with him all year."

Taylor stood up with a huge grin on her face. "Well there's only one way to figure out your sexuality. Let's just say we'regoing to a party tonight." My eyes widened hearing that. Great, it's my first day on campus and I've already questioned who I am and now I'm going to a party.

"I don't think that's such a great idea. Back home I would make short films for fun, not get drunk and high." Apparently there was nothing I could have said to get their attention because they just kept talking about who knows what.

"Alright, here's the game plan. Hayley is going to tell Sam that she heard you were going to the Sigma Pi party. Once he leave your dorm room I'll go in and pick you out an outfit that will make you irresistible. Once you're all dressed up we'll head to the party to have you mingle with girls and guys. Don't worry, we will spectate from a distance and tell you who you have a better connection with." After hearing all of that I knew I was doomed but before I could say anything Hayley was alread starting the mission.

Taylor and I put our ears up against the door to see if we could hear anything. All I heard was mumbling but it looked like Taylor knew what was going on. We heard footsteps pass the door and waited til we couldn't hear it anymore. "Let's go."

Taylor left the dorm first to see if it was all clear. I then followed her and opened the door to my room. "Alright, work your magic." I hopped on my bed and pulled out my phone. Taylor opened my closet and I heard her mumble under her breath something but I couldn't make it out.

"Is this really what you decided to bring here?" She was holding up a few shirts that were either superhero or video game based. I shrugged it off and ignored the subtle jab at my fashion sense. "Tomorrow we're going to go shopping to get you better outfits." I rolled my eyes and just kept ignoring her.

After a few minutes she finally decided what I should wear. She pulled out a red flannel, jean jacket, and a pair of khakis. "Do you have another pair of shoes? I love the Van's but I think we can go for something better." I nodded got up and pulled out three boxes from under my bed. Taylor smiled and handed me my clothes along with a pair of timberlands.

After forcing her to wait outside I finally came outside with the outfit she picked out. I had to admit, I looked like a snack. I did a twirl and had a huge smile on my face. "How do I look?" All she did was nod but the grin on her face told me how she really felt. "Party time!" I yelled as I started to make my way down the hallway. I never thought I would be excited to go to this party but I am.

After getting lost multiple times we finally found the frat house. Although I was excited earlier I now had a huge knot in my stomach. This was my first party and on top of that the first guy I've ever kissed is in there. "Ready?" I jumped totally forgetting that there was someone else in the car. Great, now I can't back out. If it was just me then I could leave now but I can't. Thanks Taylor. I think she could tell I was having doubts and gave me a comforting smile. "You'll be fine, I promise."

I took a deep breath and nodded. "Ready." We got out of the car and headed to the party. The music was super loud and it smelled like booze. There was a bunch of people everywhere. The livingroom was packed and so was every other place in the house. I saw Taylor wave at some girl and I was soon being dragged away.

"Tay! I haven't seen you all summer." The two hugged and soon both of their heads turned over to me. "Hey, I'm Hunter." I smiled and extended my hand out for a handshake but instead got a hug. "I'm Charlie. It's so nice to meet you!" She seemed nice and smelled like strawberries.

"Listen, I've got to find another friend of mine. You two should get to know each other. And yes, he is single and ready to mingle." After hearing that last part a little blush came to my face. Charlie nodded and waved Taylor goodbye. Now it was just us mingling.

"Come on, let's get a drink in your system." She smiled and dragged we with her before I could say anything. We soon got to the kitchen where one guy was mixing up a bunch of special concoctions. Charlie asked him for two beers and then handed me one. She cracked them open with the bottle opener soon after.

"I'm sorry, I don't drink. I'm only 18." I looked down feeling ashamed on what I said. I could feel my cheeks burning from embarrassment. Charlie just laughed. "It's cool dude, I'm only 19 and I've been drinking since I was in high school. No one's gonna rat you out and it's not as harmful as you think it is. Trust me."

I looked down at my bottle then up at Charlie who clearly wanted me to drink the beer. I shrugged it off and chugged the whole thing. What's the worst thing that could happen. She patted me on the back and handed me another beer. "Drink up man!" After the first one I felt like a pro. I downed this one faster than the one before and a few people started gathering around me.

The guy giving out drinks gave Charlie a few more and she kept handing them to me. Drink after drink I chugged them as fast as I could. Everyone around me was cheering and I felt an adrenaline rush. "Lets take some fucking shots bitches!" Charlie laughed and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I started to blush and smiled.
