I'm starting my freshman year of college. I'm told I will be roommates with Ashtyn Black. It turns out the college made a mistake and now we have to adjust to living with the opposite gender.
I was never really good at talking to guys. I was a shy...
I was awoken by the sound of loud knocking on our door. I looked over at the clock and it said 12:47. Who the hell would be knocking on our door this late? Ash was still dead asleep beside me. We must have fallen asleep last night while watching movies.
I rolled out of bed and went to open the door. In came a very tired looking kayley.
"What the hell kayley?" I ask.
"I haven't gotten any sleep since I moved in. My roommate has a new guys over every night. Can I please stay in your room to get some sleep before we have our first classes tomorrow?" She was begging me with her puppy eyes.
"I suppose you can. Ash fell asleep on my bed so you can sleep in his tonight." She wiggles her eyebrows at me when I mentioned ash in my bed. I just shook my head and went back over to my bed. I crawled under the blankets next to ash and fell asleep.
I feel a hand gently shaking my shoulder causing me to groan and roll over to face ash. "Uh Nic there's a girl in my bed."
"That's kayley. She came over in the middle of the night claiming that her roommate won't quit banging guys long enough for her to sleep. She asked if she could sleep here and I just said she could sleep in your bed since you were in mine. Sorry I didn't ask, you were dead asleep."
"Oh. It's okay."
"Do you have classes today?" I ask Ash.
"Not today. Mine starts next week. What about you?"
"Same." After I say that we hear a groan come from Kayley. She sits up in Ash's bed and rubs her eyes.
"I gotta go to my first class today so I'll see you guys later." Kayley gets up and hugs me then walks out of the door.
"Do you want to do something today?" I ask Ash.
"Yeah. Let's lay here and snuggle in the blankets for a little longer." I just laugh and roll back over. Another hour of sleep doesn't sound to bad.
A few minutes go by of us just laying there and a strong arm wraps around my waist and pulls me closer to a warm body. I smile and close my eyes. For some reason I feel completely safe, like nothing bad is ever going to happen. I need to stop thinking like this, Ash is just my friend, yet here we are cuddling in a twin size bed.
Ash wakes me up by trying to crawl over me to get out of bed. "Sorry. I tried not to wake you but I really got to piss. I'm going to take a shower and get ready. Be ready in 30. We are going to get breakfast." I nod my head and go to pick out an outfit for today.
I went and showered ignoring the girls smoking pot in one of the stalls. I decided to wear light blue skinny jeans with holes in the knees, a cream cropped sweat shirt and white shoes.

I walked back to the dorm room and seen Ash already ready. Ash had on jeans with a black adidas sweatshirt.
"I hate showering here. I wish I would've bought the apartment now that way I would've had my own shower." I complain.
"Yeah. It would be way better. The boys showers isn't to bad other then the weed smell and the ice cold water." Ash agrees.
"So where are we going?"
"I thought we could go get breakfast and then check out the town."
"That sounds good."
I grabbed my key chain/wallet and my phone then followed Ash out the door.
"So where's you're car?" I asked Ash since he never said anything about it.
"It's not here yet. It broke down right before I had to leave so my parents said they would have it fixed, I just have to find some way to get back to Colorado to get it."
"Oh okay so I guess we are taking my truck?" He nodded. I held up my keys to him. It's not usual for me to let anyone but myself drive my truck but sometimes I just don't feel like it.
He looked at me as if I was crazy. "You want me to drive?" He asked and I nodded.
"Isn't your truck like your baby?"
"Yeah but I don't feel like driving. You won't wreck and kill us will you?"
"Not a chance."
He got into my drivers seat and I laughed. His knees were up in his stomach and his head was touching the roof.
"Damn how do you drive like this?" He laughed as he adjusted the seat. I just chuckled at him.
"So how are you going to go to your classes without a car?"
"I guess I'll walk. It's not real far. I just hope it don't rain." He shrugged.
"What are you going to school to be anyways?"
"Well I'm going for two years to become a large animal vet tech."
"What, really? Me too." I got excited. Maybe we have classes together.
"Are you serious?" He asked.
"One hundred percent. Do we have the same classes?"
"My schedule is on my phone." He handed me his phone. "The passcode is 060802 and it's under notes."
I quickly bring his schedule up and then bring mine up to compare them. We had every single class together. I can't believe it.
"We have them all the same."
"Well then I guess I could just ride with you to class." He said with a wink.
"You can but you still need your car. What if I'm gone and you have to go somewhere?"
"Good point but I don't have a way to get to Colorado. My parents said they couldn't do the drive again."
"What if I take you? Then you could bring yours back."
"You won't want to drive all the way back. It's a long drive."
"I can take my brother. He can drive my truck back."
"You really don't have to. I can figure something else out."
"Oh shut up I want to. Plus on the way there we could stop by Texas and spend the night at the ranch so I can see my parents for a little bit."
"You want me to be with you when you go home?" He questions.
