College life is shit so far.
Pure shit. I haven't unpacked all my stuff. I've only met Amanda and I'm starting to fear that everyone in here is like her.

I also took a shower. The water is nice. That's good but you know how I like my bath?
Long and hot in a tub full of bath bombs, not under some good nice showers with zero security!

Now I must wake up real soon to be able to take a goddamn shower in peace.

God please if you're there help me. Let me find a friend by 6 o'clock today. Why so specific? There will be a party in the gym at 6 o'clock today.

Yesterday me and Amanda went to explore the campus and gym was soo far that we didn't go there. I want someone with a car to drive me.
"Let's go eat." Amanda says. I look at her. Where does she think we're going?
"We are GOING to dining hall. Did you forget? We just asked the brunette where it was" I said in a mother's like tone. It's my third day in the campus and I learned 3 important things.
1. I stuck with Amanda for at least a year.

2. She's dumb. I ain't insulting her. She really is stupid and innocent.

3. If I don't look after her she'll die. She can't do anything by herself.

And there's a little four that I don't want to put a 4. before it. Actually I found a full time job with a really high salary. What is it?
Taking care of Amanda. Her mother called me last night and offered me this job and I accepted it.

So I can get paid to be her friend. Isn't it wonderful?

We grab the food that we've already paid for with the tuition and sat on a table. The table is in the perfect location. Not in corner and not in center. I look at others. There are quite a lot clumsy good for nothings who I can clearly see their melancholia for their sweet home. They must be my classmates to be.
I hate them already.

"It's delicious." Amanda says with a nice happy expression on her face.
"Of course it is sweety. We paid way too much for this." I say as I'm still observing people.

"Oh hello! Do you remember me?" A chummy, sorry, chubby boy says. He's looking at Amanda. I guess, "The pizza boy?" Amanda says and I smile victoriously. I was right. He points at the chair beside me,  "is that taken?"
"Doesn't seem so." I say and observe him. I think he's into Amanda. It's only a guess. Yet.

He's a Blondie. He has a nice smile and he smells like medicine. I don't hate him. Yet.

"Are you two roommates?" He asks.
Amanda answers, "We're also best friends."
I want to say that I get paid to be her friend but I ain't no jerk, "Yeah. She's right."

"You know me. I'm Amanda. She's..."
I try to avoid the disaster, "Honora..." But her voice is more trained than me so she says louder, "Goldie."

No. Please no. I hate this name. It looks like a...
"Goldie? That's cute. My first puppy named Goldie too." He says with that stupid nice smile.

I hate him. It's official.

"I'm Rob. I also live in dorms. My roommate was talking to her gf on the phone so I came here first. He will join us." Join us? Why he talks like he's so close with us? Is he our friend? Is it the famous making friends that I heard about?

"Was the pizza place number real?" Amanda asks out of blue.
One of Rob's eyebrows lifts, "Of course it was. I'm not one of those creeps who give their number away like this."

"And yet you thought about this creeps instead of answering with a simple yes. Like it's something you would do." I say and eat my cold food casually.

He turns red, "Well I used to be one. Now I'm not."
I smile. A real one. I like it when people know something is wrong and they try to fix it, "That's great. Now you can throw away that creep and turn into a natural lady killer." Well maybe this is too much. I got carried away. But! I don't hate him that much. Yet.

"Thanks... I guess." He tone is not exactly what you call happy but seems happy. Amanda too. I bet it's because of the pizza place is real.

- Well well, what do we have here?
I hear an extremely attractive voice. It belongs to an extremely attractive boy. He's like someone who can play Prince charming in the live action of any Disney princess animation. But not beauty and the beast. He's to pretty for that.

I definitely hate him. As you may have noticed I hate beautiful creatures.

He sits next to Amanda, "Rob! How could you manage to find some fine ladies?" He asks Rob and I feel like throwing up.

"And It's Simon the roommate I talked about."
Simon smiled. That mother father knows he's handsome and also knows what to do to even look more handsome, "O? What did you tell about me?"

"That you have a girl friend." I say. It means war. I won't let him flirt to Amanda. I have two reasons. If they date I have to see him more than I should and the second reason is that both of them are pretty and I only hate one thing more than beautiful creatures and that's two beautiful creatures dating.

He blinks, "We broke up."
What? No!
For the first time I don't know what to say. He continues, "Long distance was to hard for her. So we broke up."
Now I know what should I say, "So you must stay single for at least two month. Studies proved that it's the standard amount of time to heal and get ready for the next relationship."
Did I fucked up?

"Who are you?" He asks sincerely and I answer, "Hono..."
But Amanda has to fuck it up again, "Goldie. My best friend. She won't date you."

She won't date you? How did you know? Maybe Amanda is not that dumb after all.

"Goldie? That's cute. It's like a puppy name!"
I know bitch. I know! I don't need every one of you remind me that...

"So you ladies will be at the freshmen party at the gym?" Simon asks.
"Only if we find a ride." Amanda answers.
"You can come with us. Simon has his car." Rob says and looks at Simon. Simon shakes his  head, "Yes of course!"

I look at my watch. It's not 6 yet. Maybe there is a God after all.
