I sat on my bed, quietly singing to myself as I scrolled through Twitter when there was a knock at my door.
"Come in, Braden." I say absent minded.
"It's not Braden." I look up and see the oh so familiar Brunette that I live with. I stayed silent. "I uh- My friends are coming over in about 5 minutes and I know you don't like them so I suggest you stay in here for about 2 or 3 hours or Maybe go for a walk around Campus... There's a nice Hiking trail by the beach... But uh... Just a little heads up." Elijah starts to mutter near the end of his sentence. I nod.
"Thanks for the warning." I nod and stand up. I walked out of the room, accidentally brushing Elijah's shoulder. It felt like... Like you know that Feeling when your on a roller coaster going straight down- that feeling in your stomach and the sudden Adrenaline rush- it felt like that. I ignored it as I walked out the door and headed to the stairs. I was already in work out type clothes, Basketball shorts and a Razorback tank top so I went for a jog around Campus but that only took about an hour and I wasn't sweaty and Tired so I went back to the dorm just to grab a book for me to read by the water fountain just a few minutes away from my dorm building of you walked. I let myself in and as Expected I saw Elijah and his friends laughing at probably nothing. I got my book and as I was about to walk out of the room when I almost tripped over someone's leg. I looked back to see Andrew snickering as he pulled his leg back.
"My god" I mutter, "you all need to grow up." I groan and walk out, shutting the door harder than intended. I went back to the ground floor and walked the fountain. I sat on one of the marble benches with my legs crossed and read my book. Well, Until I saw a blur of green as someone sped past me, the shock of that situation nearly made me fall off of the bench but the person noticed and steadied me. I looked up and saw a guy about my size and Age. He had a Chocolate brown fringe that almost covered his right eye- speaking of eyes, he had thehe most vibrant emerald green eyes. He wore grey basketball shorts and a Lime green tank top.
"Sorry about that." He smiles sheepishly, speaking in a very strong British accent.
"It's fine." I smile back. "I'm YN." I introduce myself.
"I'm Sam Byte but my Friends usually call me Sub."
"Why were you running so fast?"
"Uh- yeah, I'm on the track team and My friend Flebsy almost beat my best time so I'm tryna but him back in his place." Sub Jokes. We swapped numbers and he ran off again. I noticed I had been gone for about 3 hours so I Headed back to the dorm. I was grateful to find that Elijah and Braden were the only ones playing Mario Kart in the living room.
"Oh Hey, YN. Care to join?" Braden asked me.
"Nah, I was gonna chill in my room for a bit." I deny.
"Oh Okay."Braden shrugs. I went to my room and I just doodled for a while before I heard a knock.
"Come in." I mutter. The door opened and Elijah stood against the doorframe. I set my pencil down.
"I'm uh really sorry about Andrew Earlier..." He apologized.
"It's fine." I shrug.
"By the way, There's a party later, and uh Braden's also coming... So is like the Basketball team and Football team and stuff and Uh I heard the Track teams going too- I'm not helping my case- There's a party that Corl and I are going to and I was wondering if you were up for it." He offers.
"I mean... I guess so." I shrug. I was never one for parties but it's good to loosen up sometimes.
I followed closely behind Braden to this one kids Dorm. Elijah opened the door to reveal people dancing as music boomed. We went in and My eyes quickly found Denis, Him being the tallest in the room. He was talking to another tall guy as he drank a bottle of Beer. I looked past him to see Sub in the corner, nodding his head to the music. I went over to him.
"Why you all alone over here?" I ask. He raised his eyebrows at me.
"Well, Flebsy begged me to go, o I said yeah, but he pretty much immediately found his Girlfriend, Sammantha or Sam- Ironic isn't it- but I was third wheeling so I'm just chillin over here." He shrugs. "Plus, I'm already kinda quiet."
"Same here." I shrug.
As the night progressed more people got drunk, But Sub and I are goodie two shoes' and we didn't drink anything. I was talking to Sub about Demons and Shane Dawson theories when I was nearly knocked off my feet from behind. I turned around to see a Very very drunk Elijah gaining his balance. He had that drunk smile on where you could tell, he was in La la land.
"Wassup, YN! You look Really really Prett-" His words slurred together before he lost his balance and fell into my shoulder.
"Who's he?" Sub asks.
"My roommate." I roll my eyes.
"OOF. I'm gonna suggest you take him home... He's wasted."
"That would be smart." I nod.
"I don't Wanna go home though!" Elijah slurs.
"Too bad." I say, slinging his arm over my shoulder.
"But It's fun here!" He giggles.
"If watching people grind on each other is fun, then yeah, Paradise!" I say sarcastically. I dragged Elijah out the door and to the elevator because he obviously was incapable of climbing the stairs to our floor. I unlocked the door while I held the 135 pound boy in my other. I helped him inside and brought him to his bedroom. I had never been inside Elijah's bedroom. It was Light blue, It had a queen sized bed with black and white covers, a desk with a few family pictures on it, a dresser and a laptop resting on his nightstand. I turned to Elijah and he rested his forehead on my shoulder. He lifted his head and our noses bumped together. Suddenly his lips slammed into mine. I don't know what I was thinking but I kissed back... I pulled back and Elijah moved his head forwards as if to chase my lips but I looked up so he couldn't. I laid him down on his bed and he yawned once his head hit the pillow.
"I'm sleepy!" He giggles. I left and got in my PJs. I went back to Elijah's room to check on him and he was slowly drifting off. I turned to the door. "Noooo! Stay." Elijah says in a tired tone. I turned.
"What?"
"Stay." I stayed completely silent. "Please." He begs. He reached out his arm but the bed was a good 4 feet away so he couldn't touch me. I stepped forwards a little bit and his long fingers wrapped around my wrist. "Please stay?" He gave me the biggest puppy dog eyes. And so, I laid next to him... And I stayed.
