There are moments in our lives that seem to define us. Moments we keep going back to. My life before him was so simple and decided. And now, after him, there's just... After.

"y/n! Okay, what are we forgetting? Hair dryer?" "No." "Flashlight." "Mom, it's college. It's not a survival course." "Towels, battery charger, phone charger..." "I can always drive anything up if you forget it" my boyfriend noah says. "Okay, we should get going. We have a long drive ahead." We're on the right floor. B-22... B-22... right here B-22. "Hey" my roommate says. "Hi...Um... Steph?" "In the flesh" "I'm y/n" i said introducing myself. "Hey, it's my new roomie. This is Tristan." "Hey, I'm y/n." "Come in. We're not gonna bite." "Sorry. So, this is my mom, and this is Noah" "Full disclosure, I was pretty bummed to be paired with a freshman, but then I thought, "Hello, bright side, "I'm gonna be your spirit guide.'" "We can get you into all the best places, even without a fake." tristan says  "Mom" i yell at my mom as she is leaving the room. "We're going straight down to the housing office right now and requesting a room change." "What are you talking about?" "That room reeked of..." "Can you please not make a scene?" "I'm not. Okay. We have worked too hard for this... And I don't want you to be distracted by anyone." "Mom, this is me that we're talking about. Can you please just trust me? It will be fine, I promise." after that we said our goodbyes and they left and i was there all by myself.

walking back into my room steph says "How much did I freak your mom out? Um... She thinks I'm gonna be a bad influence?" "She's just very protective. It's always only been the two of us." "no. no thanks" i say when she offers me her juul "See? Seems like she has nothing to worry about. Your brother's cute." Oh, you mean Noah? No, he's my boyfriend." "Sorry." "No, it's okay. He's a senior in high school." *ding ding* "That's Tristan. I'm supposed to meet her. What's with all the old books? Who brings books to college?" steph says. "Me. I guess." "The bookish vibe. I like that. All right, I'm out." "Okay. Bye."

the next day aka the first day of school

"Hi." a boy standing outside of the class says "Hey. Econ 101?" "Yeah.". i go to try to open the door and It's locked. "Yeah. I already tried it." the boy says. "Couple of early birds, huh? Have fun in there." the. professor says "Oh. Sorry. After you. After you." we say at the same time "No, no... No, no... Honestly I insist." i say "No, I insist. my mother raised me to..." "Okay." i said walking it.

"Are you in first year, too?" i asked "Yeah. Are you an econ major?" "That's the plan. You?" "I'm an English major. I'm Landon, by the way." "y/n Hi." "Hi, nice to meet you." "Good morning. I'm Professor Alexander, and welcome to Econ 101. This might be the most important class you take here, so I expect everyone here to closely pay attention and benefit from the 25-year career I had on Wall Street. Now, let's get started."

i go and take a shower after all my class and get ready for bed, but when i walked into my room i see some that is not steph in our room. "Oh. Uh, excuse me? Uh, I think that you're in the wrong room." "I'm in the right room." say the stranger. "How did you even get in here?" he shows me some keys while he is sitting on my bed reading a book. "Okay. Can you please go out into the hall so I can get dressed?" i ask "Don't flatter yourself. I'm not looking". "Hey, y/n" steph says walking into the room. "Hi. Uh... Can you please ask your boyfriend to leave so I can get dressed?" "Uh... Not my boyfriend." "What did you say to her?" she said look at the boy. "Nothing. I've been minding my own business." "hey we're going to a party tonight and You're going out with us tonight." steph says to me "Yeah, I don't know." "I'm trying to picture this one at a party. Just not seeing it." the boy says "You're not gonna stay in here forever, right?" steph asks "Nope." before the boy that i have to clue how he is says "The Great Gatsby. It's a good book. I'd hate to spoil it... But it was all a dream." but before he can leave i stop him by saying "Actually... It was all a lie."
