It's Different

Chapter Five

Today was going to be a great day or at least I hoped that it was. I woke with a positive attitude, despite being stuck in this nightmare with my semester roommate I was trying my utmost best not to let it phase me. Speaking of the devil, I thought, she never came back to the room after she had left with Khan. I anticipated that this would be something that happened on a regular, then I'd have the room to myself more often and I wouldn't have to see her stupid face.

I thought about the short conversation that Khan and I had yesterday. The way he approached me, pleading on Eleanor's behalf. Was Khan a good guy? Or was he possibly playing me, and what did he mean when he said that there was a lot that I didn't know. After the conversation with Khan I had went in and had a cold, refreshing shower, my day had been as productive as I had planned it out to be. I still had way to much to do but at least I started. I had messaged Sara to find out how the ordering stuff worked and had finally decided on pizza, half peperoni, half chicken, no pineapples. I smirked to myself when the order came, remembering that the last time I had pizza, this exact type of pizza was movie night with Levi. I had felt extremely downhearted when my mind came on Levi, which was the way I always felt when my mind came on him. Now I didn't only have to worry about how he was doing, and possibly if he had missed me but I now had to worry about Cassie, what he was doing with her, what he was saying to her, how he was touching her, the combination of thoughts made me gag. I had went to bed with a full stomach and an overthinking mind, however I woke up with a fresh face, ready to tackle the new day and face my newly discovered adventures

My first class was scheduled to begin at 8am, my alarm went off at six, giving me two hours to get ready, more than enough time I thought. After taking a shower I decided to give Asha a call.

"Tell me that you have a valid reason for calling me at this time in the morning," Asha answered grumpily.

"Hello it's my first day of school!!" I exclaimed.

"Technically it's your third day," Asha answered with sarcasm.

"First day of actual class," I chimed excitedly.

"Well someone's over excited," Asha finally smiled.

"Hey babe, who's that?" I heard my brother in the background.

"Hey big head," I screamed.

"Hey sis," he screamed back with the same enthusiasm.

"Do you guys know what time it is, so loud," Asha rolled her eyes, then covered her face with a pillow. Stanley kissed her on the cheek then took the phone from her.

"What's popping sis?" he asked.

"Nothing much, just about to get ready for my first day."

"What's your first class?"

"Introduction to Plant Pathology," I said.

"Well good luck with that," he laughed.

"I need Asha for clothing advice," I realized that I had taken being early for granted and spent a long time in the shower.

"Okay this is my cue to leave," he said as he gave Asha back the phone. She sat up on the bed and smacked his ass as he walked away.

"You all are not allowed to be so cute in front of me," I cheesed and Asha blushed.

"What are you thinking of wearing?" She asked. Then we proceeded to go through the options that I had. Ultimately, we settled on a black skinny jean that was ripped at the knees, a grey spaghetti strap vest paired with my denim jacket and my black converse. We agreed that it was simple yet chic and would convey a good first impression. I put on lipstick and curled the ends of my hair quickly with the curling iron. Suddenly I heard a knock on my door and was greeted by Hazel when I opened the door.
