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...
It's been a week since we moved in. Also a week since I've been on crutches and let me tell you, crutches are no fun. My arms feel like jello and my good leg hurts worse then the bad one. Ash has been a life saver though, he carries me everywhere and is bringing my work home from college. I haven't been going since the crutches. I also haven't had a chance to get a job.
Me and Ash are watching a movie on the couch when my phone starts ringing. I look at the caller id and see it's my cousin josh.
N: Hey. What's up cus J: Hey Nikki. I'm in Florida right now. My boss transferred me here last night. I was wondering if I could crash with you until I can find a place to rent? N: Um let me ask them if they care but it should be fine.
I cover the speaker and ask Ash if he cares. Kayleys in class so she doesn't get a say in it. Oops sorry kayley. Ash said he didn't care so I un cover the speaker to talk to josh.
N: We don't care. If you bring an air mattress you can put it in the room that will be the nursery. We haven't touched it yet so it's all yours until it's closer to the baby's arrival J: Thanks Nikki. I didn't know where I would stay. It means a lot. Can you send me the address. I'm about an hour away. N: Sure. See you then
I hang up and send him my address. "I want to take a shower. Could you maybe help me?" I asked ash.
"Yeah sure." He carried me to the bathroom. He's only ever seen me naked that one time and he was in so much of a panic he didn't pay much attention. I'm shy about my body so I don't really want him to see. I've been living in basically the same clothes since last week because I haven't wanted to ask ash to help me. I've changed my shirt but I haven't been able to change my pants as often. I know it's disgusting but I feel awkward if I ask Ash to help change me. That's just weird.
"What do I need to do to help you?" Ash asks.
"Umm I don't really know. I didn't think this through. Sorry." I nervous laugh.
"Baby it's okay." He said and smiled at me.
"I really need to wash I probably smell like a monkey."
"You don't smell like a monkey but you probably do need to wash." He laughed.
"Yeah but I don't know how to. I can't put weight on this stupid thing and I have no balance." I said pointing at my booted ankle.
"What if you take a bath that way you don't have to stand?"
"How will I get in and out though? That will be harder than the shower." I sigh. This is so frustrating. I hate not being able to do anything myself. I would just put weight on my foot but when I do it hurts like hell and I end up crying from the pain.
"I'll help you. I could help you with a shower to if that's what you want."
"I think the shower would hurt less. Could you just hold my arm to keep me balanced while I wash?"
"Sure thing babe. Hang on a minute though." He left me holding on to the counter while he went back into our room. He came back a minute later with swim trunks on. "Okay you ready?" I nodded.
He took my cast off first and pulled my pants down leaving me in only my thongs. I pulled my shirt off as well. He carried me into the shower and held my arm to support me while he faced the wall. I took my bra and thong off and washed my body. I then washed my hair and accidentally got soap all over ash so he had to lean over under the water to get it off.
Once I was done rinsing I turned the water off and he wrapped a towel around me before he looked at me. I don't know if he's being respectful to me or just doesn't want to look at how bad my body looks. I'm even more insecure since my bump has doubled in size.
He carried me out and set me up on the counter. He handed me a clean pair of thongs and started to slide them up my legs. He got them to the edge of the towel and turned around so I could slide them the rest of the way. I took the towel off and slipped on a bralett before he turned back around. I put on a white night gown and a grey robe on. You could really see my bump in it.

"You two better not be having sex in there." I heard josh yell.
"Joshh!" I yelled. He started chuckling.
"Hurry up." He said.
"Ash just has to put my boot on." I yelled back. Ash velcrowed my boot and picked me up. He carried me to the couch where josh was sitting.
"What the hell happened to you?" He asked. Oh right I forgot to tell him.
"I was dumb and slipped when I stepped out of the bath last week. It's fractured so ash has been taking care of me."
"Oh. Why are you in swim trunks?" He asked looking over to ash.
"He helped me keep balanced in the shower." I said and ash went to get changed back into regular clothes.
"You've gotten huge cus." He said looking at my belly.
"I know and I'm only in my first trimester." I said with a laugh. I'm actually concerned because my belly is huge. My 12 week appointment is in two days though.
"Thank you again for letting me stay. It was a fast transfer. It happened with only a few days of notice. I brought an air mattress though."
"You're welcome and you can stay in the room that will be the nursery. We won't need it until the baby is here." He nodded and looked up when the door opened.
"Oh my god josh! I didn't know you were coming." Kayley said. We were all very close growing up. Kayley ran full speed at him and jumped. He caught her laughing and gave her a hug.
"He's staying here with us for a while. I would've asked you but you was still in class." I shrugged.
"Yay. We will get to catch up more now." Kayley said as she went to her room and returned a few minutes later in pajamas. We all sat and watched movies for the rest of the night.
