John POV
"Her name? You'll see, I might text her and meet up." I say.
"Wha-at? C'mon John, don't tell us you don't know her name." Herc says. I roll my eyes.
"You guys can come with us, I'll ask her to bring some friends so that, you know- we can meet new people. Also you guys need some girlfriends too," I smirk. They nudge each other and laugh.
"I can't believe Alex is the one who has a girl," Laf snorts. "Hey!" Alex shoves him and we all laugh.

    "How's Eliza by the way?" Herc asks. Alex sighs.
"She saw me shoving my sister into the wall and we had a bit of an argument." My eyes widen.
"You shoved her into the wall?" I ask. He shrugs.  "Mon ami, I don't think that was a very good ide-" but Alex cuts off Laf.
"Don't you remember what she did?" He growls. We sigh, nodding. We stay in silence for a bit.
    "So, when will you introduce this girl to us?" Laf asks. I think for a moment.
"Maybe tomorrow.." I answer, yet still unsure.
"Then go and text her!!" Herc yells, shaking my shoulders. "Okay, OKAY!!" I say, to stop him. He smiles innocently.
    I grab my phone and click on her number. I set her name to (P/n) so that I won't forget it's her.
John: Hey, how's it going?
Seen
Typing...
My hands shake a bit, anxiously waiting for her reply. We stare at the phone for an entire minute
You: Good, thanks for asking. Hbu?

Alex quickly snatches the phone from my hands and starts typing.
Oh my god.
He clicks send and hands the phone to me. My eyes widen in horror as I read what he sent. Alex sees my reaction and roars in laughter. Herc and Laf join in.
Seen

    Oh lord. I try to text casually like I didn't say anything before that
John: Wanna meet up at Starbucks tomorrow? You can bring a couple of friends.
Typing...
You: Sure!! Is 9:15 am good?
John: Totally! See you ☺️
(P/n) reacts ❤️ to your message
    "You guys are coming with me." I sigh, rolling my eyes. They squeal and giggle like fourth graders.
I try to process what I just did.
I just asked to hang out with Y/n, holy shit.
My palms start to sweat and my heart starts beating faster. I smile.

Your POV
"I win, again!!" Peggy cries in triumph after playing five matches. Angelica groans as I scream into a pillow. Eliza just giggles at us, not really caring about winning.
"It's okay Y/n, it's not like you also lost the other three rounds." Eliza says. Angelica groans again.
"While I didn't win anything." She mutters.
"Yeah you didn't," I snort, earning a glare from Angelica, which doesn't really bother me.
Ring
I look around to grab my phone to see that- oh my gods.
"JOHN TEXTED ME!!" I squeal.
The sisters look at each other weirdly.
"Who?" Peggy asks.
"John," Eliza frowns.  "As in, John Laurens?" I shrug, "The guy I met at 7-11." I say. They nod. I open the chat.
John: Hey, how's it going?
I look at them, nervous. Peggy grabs my phone. She starts typing. She smirks and shows it to me.
"Oh nothing much," I read aloud. "Wanna get marr- PEGGY" I yell. She laughs her head off as I quickly erase the message she typed. Eliza sighs and brings her hand out, gesturing for me to give her the phone. I place it on her palm and she starts texting calmly. She shows it to me and I nod in approval. She hits send.
You: Good, thanks for asking. Hbu?

He replies quickly
John: Doing great, thanks to you ;)

    My face turns so red, the YouTube logo would be jealous. Peggy grabs the phone from me and reads the text. She wiggles her eyebrows at me as she shows the text to Angelica and Eliza. They both laugh and smile smugly at me. They give me back my phone
He sends me another text:
John: Wanna meet at Starbucks tomorrow? You can bring a couple of friends

    I squeal and show the text to the three. Peggy does a happy dance and Angelica nudges my side with a smirk. Eliza just grins at me.
    "Well, at least we can meet this mystery John guy." She grins.
I type in a reply and send.
You: Sure!! Is 9:15 am good?
John: Totally!! See you ☺️

    "You guys better make sure you're going with me." I huff. They just laugh.
"Do we still have cookies?" Peggy asks, going through the fridge.
"Wait you guys had cookies? Without me, again?" Angelica asks in annoyance. "Yeah, we had cookies. Notice I said had, thanks to Peggy." I grumble.
"Oh don't worry, I hid some at the very back of the fridge because I knew Peggy would try to eat every single one." Eliza says, turning to glare at Peggy. Peggy shrugs. Angelica rushes to grab the cookies and the milk.
"Hey, leave some for me!!" Peggy shouts, Angelica sticks her tongue out as she tries to eat every single one.

    "When are classes starting again?" I ask.
"Next Monday," Eliza answers. "Today is Friday so we still have a few days to prepare." I nod.
"Right now, I need to buy some pens, binders, all that jazz. Wanna come with?" Angelica asks. I shrug.
"Sure, I also need to buy stuff." I say. Eliza and Peggy agree to come with us as well.
    We leave the building, staying quiet, not really knowing what to say.
"So Y/n," Angelica starts, breaking the silence, "tell us more about yourself."
"Uhh, well..." I think for a moment, "I do like to do (F/h), eat, (a/h), eat, and eat." I answer. They all laugh. I grin as well.

"Well, we're here!" Peggy announces as we stand in front of a small building with glass doors. I feel the rush of cool wind from the ac as we enter. The place is quite small, shelves cramping the place, but the smell of books filling the air make up for it (everyone loves the smell of books, right?).
We grab a basket each and scatter to the supplies we need. I grab a lot of ballpoint pens just in case I lose three in one day. I also get some cute (f/c) paper folders, a binder, binder paper and other stuff. Is it just me or is shopping for school supplies fun?
We pay for the stuff and leave.

    "Hey what time is it?" I ask Peggy. She checks her phone. "8:30 pm. Wow, I didn't realise how time flies by so fast." I nod.
"While we're out, we should have dinner." Eliza suggests. We all nod in agreement.
"How's McDonald's for you guys?" Angelica asks.
"Oh my god, YES!!!" Peggy says excitedly. We laugh at her reaction and cross the street to get to McDonald's. The place is a bit crowded, but the line isn't that long. Angelica asks for my order, since she probably already knows her sister's orders.
    "Uhh, (Y/o) please." I say, she nods and turns to the cashier.
"One chicken fillet meal with Coke, one crispy chicken meal, a happy meal with orange juice," I turn to Peggy, knowing that it's her order, "-BFF sized fries, and (Y/o)."

    I bring out my wallet, ready to pay. Angelica sees this and glares at me.
"We'll pay for it Y/n, don't worry." Eliza assures me, but I shake my head.
"No, my treat." I insist, handing out the cash.
"I mean, free food guys," Peggy jokes, I turn to see the other two with a look that says 'See?'. They both glare daggers at Peggy as she raises her hands in surrender.
Angelica shakes her head. I sigh in defeat, knowing I won't win an argument with Angelica. She pays and the cashier hands us a number and our receipt.

    We pick a table that isn't surrounded by people, waiting for our food. The food arrives and we all eat in silence. We finish our food and chat for a bit. I look at my phone for the time, 9:12 pm.
"Well guys, I think I should go and meet my new roommate before she sleeps." I say. They nod.

     I walk into my building, into the elevator and I reach my dorm. I unlock the door and look around me. Nothing's changed.
"Hello? Fellow roommate?" I call out. No answer, I guess she isn't here yet. 
I open the room door on the right until I hear the entrance door open. Instead, a familiar attractive voice speaks up.
"You must be my new- Y/n?" I turn around to see guy with a familiar pair of deep green eyes, and freckles scattered across his cheeks. His ponytail messier than ever.
Oh my god, its John.
Nervously remembering something, I open the door I was going to enter, and it looks exactly how it did earlier, no bed.
"S-so, only one room has a bed." I mutter. His eyes widen.
"Well, we can always request another one from the lobby, right?" He says. I check the time.
"The lobby closes at 8:00 pm."

Good news, I'm updating next week :D!! I'm going to take a break from my other book.
