Sighing, you got in the taxi. You were wearing a jacket because it was very cold, as you gazed outside the taxi started moving. You watched, passing houses by houses. You can't believe that your mother forced you to go to school. It was true you needed to go there, but still...

Looking out, you could see now people pass by for a split second because the taxi was still moving. You were already in the city and close to the school. Well, this was already happening and there's no escaping... Right? No, of course there isn't. Unless there is? Maybe when no one is looking, Y/n can just leave the school for good. "Is this the place?" The taxi driver asked. Snapping out of your thoughts you looked out of the little window of the taxi to see big ass school. Probably is. "Yes, thank you." Y/n said giving him the money, and the driver took it. You exited the taxi, turning around you grabbed your heavy bag from the taxi, driver was helping you out. "Thank you." You said, when he putted the heavy bags in front of her.

"You're welcome." He replied, and without another word he got back in taxi and started to drive away, Y/n watching the yellow and black taxi go. After a bit, she spun around to look at the big school. It had gate before coming in, and the school was somewhere in the middle. There was space for playing, but no one seemed to be out. Then, she saw something in her vision. Looking closely, she could see someone opened the door and started walking over to her. It was a boy with black and purple jacket, he had light blue eyes and blonde hair. Y/n watched him, when he came over to her the gate opened. "Hey there." Blondie said, he stepped in front of her,then his blue eyes trained over to get bags. "Are these yours?" He asked, to which Y/n nodded.

Then, he picked up her bag and glanced at her "Let's go inside, you must be Y/n, right?" He asked. Y/n followed closely beside the unknown man. Looking closely at him closely, you can't help it but look at how handsome his face is. Looking down at his body he looked beautiful. Blondie looked at you with a confused face, you flushed red from embarrassment. "Um, yes. And you are?" Y/n asked the boy. He smiled at her brightly and said "I'm Boruto! Uzumaki Boruto!" Boruto exclaimed, and Y/n nodded. "It's cold, why did they put of all people sent me to greet a newbie..." Boruto murmured to himself, shivering with cold. Y/n looked back at the gate who was closing now. This won't be such a easy escape as Y/n thought in her head. She could see cameras everywhere too.

When they came in the school, Boruto opened the door and walked in, Y/n following behind. When the warmness in the school hit her, she shivered, relieved that the coldness is gone. It was really cold outside, but not that cold. It wasn't winter yet but it will be in a few days. Looking at Boruto, he didn't pay much attention to her and instead led her across the hallway.

Y/n followed closely behind him, then he turned to go upstairs. "On the 4th and 5th floor are dorms, and I hate that there aren't any elevators..." Boruto sighed, and it made Y/n giggle. It must be a real struggle. When Boruto began to walk upstairs, Y/n followed closely behind him. After a bit of walking up and up, Y/n became exhausted. Who even likes going upstairs? This school is huge. When they finally came to 4th floor, Boruto and you sighed with relief. You could see that Boruto was breathing heavily, but just for a split second. It will be a big struggle going upstairs to her room...

Leading her, Boruto turned to the right and stopped at the room who had number of 'A5'. This is A5? It seems like there's at least 6 floors, but Y/n didn't bother counting. Maybe there's 7? No, the clearing is wide enough. "Well, since there are many students yes, you are sharing your room with someone. And sadly for me, I'm your roommate..." Boruto sighed sadly, looking a little annoyed. Y/n punched his shoulder in a friendly way. "Hey, that's mean!" Y/n responded and Boruto rubbed his shoulder. Boruto met her gaze and said "Well, it's not like it's something wrong with you, I just wanted it to be one of my friends... Mostly Shikadai."

Y/n could understand that, if she got a roommate she'd pick her best friend too, and it would be a disappointed if she didn't get her, or her friends, she just got an unknown stranger. Picking up her bags again, Boruto opened the door with his shoulder, when he walked in he called behind him "Mind closing the door?" Doing as she was told, Y/n closed the door behind her. Looking around she could see that there were two beds on each side, on the right side was empty with a desk and a closet, but on the left side was full of Boruto's stuff, and in the middle of the two beds was a window. Stepping closer, Y/n looked out of the window to see how high she was. She was afraid of heights, but not that much. It excited her but sometimes it's terrifying.

Hearing Boruto put the bags down with a heavy thud, Y/n moved away from the window and started to unpack her stuff while Boruto watched her. Why is he watching her? She could feel his gaze on her, looking at him she made a confused face "What is it?" Y/n asked. Snapping out of his thoughts, Boruto's cheeks flushed a little pink, but nearly. He looked away with his hands in his pockets. "Nothing, I just spaced out." He said, and with that he walked over to his bed and pulled out his telephone. From which Y/n could see, he was texting someone but it was hard to see because his back was facing her.

Shrugging it away, Y/n continued to unpack her stuff. She put the clothes in the closet and her things she wanted to bring on the desk, and few papers in the drawers. When she finally finished, she sat on her bed which was surprisingly comfy. Looking at Boruto, she opened her mouth to ask "So, um. How do we go to bathroom, eat and stuff?"

Boruto looked at her over his shoulder, he put the phone down and turned his body toward her so she wasn't facing his back anymore. "Well, first you don't have a bathroom here obviously. But, there is a girls bathroom at the right side of this hallway, and the man's is on the left. You go shower and do your stuff - whatever your girls do - there." Boruto explained, and Y/n listened carefully. A public bathroom? Well, that will be embarrassing now... But then, Boruto continued. "As for eating, the school had chefs and there's lunch time in 9am - in middle of the 2nd and 3rd class, 1pm - when the school is over, and 7pm before nighttime. "

Nodding, Y/n flopped down on her bed. Maybe this school won't be so bad after all, maybe it will be nice. But yet, thinking about homework and studying made her sick. Who even likes studying? Only a very small percent of people do, that's for sure. There's always that one nerd in your class but I doubt he likes studying too, at least at Y/n's school he didn't. "So, when do we start class?" Y/n asked, sitting up again.

She noticed nintendo switch was in Boruto's hand now, when did he take it out? Y/n wasn't paying attention. He paused the game and looked at her "Well, today is Sunday so it's tomorrow at 7am." Boruto explained to which Y/n nodded. "Do you have any friends here?" Y/n asked out of the blue, and Boruto replied fast "Of course I do. Don't you?"

Y/n looked at the floor thinking. She never really had any friends in her life, no one wanted to be her friend. If she told him no would he judge her? He was looking at her curiously now, because she was hesitant. Without thinking Y/n answered Boruto's question "Yes, I do." Y/n said, meeting Boruto's gaze. He returned his attention to his nintendo, then he groaned in annoyance, flopping down on the bed. "Y/n, I accidentally continued the game! This is your fault!" Boruto scoffed, returning his full attention to the game. Y/n could hear him clicking buttons. It was satisfying for some reason, but Y/n ignored it.

"What are you playing?" Y/n asked, sitting up on her bed and looking at Boruto curiously. "Mario kart." Boruto replied, and Y/n smiled with happiness. She loved to play mario kart, but she never had a nintendo switch, so all she played was the old mario kart games. "I love that game,can I play after you?" Y/n asked, and then Boruto turned to look at her with a surprised face, but it soon turned out to a smirking one. "Having a roommate who plays games will be amazing! Most girls don't play games, at least not that I know of." Boruto said, he moved aside so Y/n could lay beside him. Wait what- lay beside him? Why can't this idiot just sit up, won't it be awkward? But, whatever.

Laying beside Boruto, she made sure she was distant enough from him, but yet close to see the view. She watched as he raced over, beating all npc. He was in first place for now, maybe this won't be bad after all. Boruto seems like a nice roommate.
