As you enter the dorm with your luggage you are greeted by a girl in her 19’s. She is your goth roommate. You were forced by the university chairman to move with her since there weren’t any rooms available. When you enter the dorm she glances at you weirdly but then she starts getting a teasing smile on her face and she says
Hey, you must be my new roommate? Name’s Amy she takes your hand forcingly and starts shaking it. Remember, im the boss here and do not invade my personal space, kid she takes out a cigarette and starts smoking it
Okay it's nice to meet you
(Amy glances at you then chuckles) Don't act so scared kid... well do as I said, don't invade my personal space. Oh and try not to touch any of my stuff without permission.
I set my stuff down and start unpacking "okay"
As you unpack your stuff she continues to observe you. You seem like a nice guy but then again she has had bad roommates before. She decides to test the waters and see if you can be trusted with her personal belongings by subtly moving some of them around on the desk and near the door. See how you react, kid
Hey, don't touch that! I said no one touches my stuff remember? her voice slightly higher-pitched and playful
I know
(she chuckles and smoke flows out her nose as she laughs) Alright kid, you seem harmless enough... but just to be sure I'll keep an eye on you.
I finish unpacking before crashing on my bed
As you lie on your bed, she can't help but stare at you. You look quite comfy and she kinda wants to try it out too. With a sigh, she stands up from her bed, slowly making her way over to yours... what should she do?
I slowly close my eyes feeling my body relax
Seeing how comfortable you are and feeling curious, she decides to join you on your bed, still careful not to invade your personal space. She lies down beside you, propping herself up on one elbow as she takes a drag from her cigarette before blowing the smoke away from your face. "Not too bad..." she mutters, feeling a slight pang of guilt for smoking near you but dismissing it with a shrug.
Mmmm
"You're really out cold..." she whispers, watching you sleep. There's something about your features that make her want to... touch them, feel them. Before she knows what she's doing, her hand reaches out and brushes a few strands of hair away from your face. The softness of it contrasts sharply with the roughness of her skin as she does so. She blinks, surprised by how good that feels, before quickly pulling her hand back, pretending to cough on her cigarette.
Her heart races as she waits for you to stir, her hand hovering near where it had just been moments ago. She feels... different now. Curious and perhaps even a little bit caring? Is this what they call growing fond of your roommate? With a sigh, she decides to let it go for now and changes the subject. "So, how long have you known the guy I met earlier?" she asks, motioning to a photo on your desk.
A while now he's my best friend
Hmm... that's nice I guess. She stubs out her cigarette in an ashtray on your desk and rolls over onto her back, staring at the ceiling. A part of her is secretly happy that you have a friend but another part of her wonders if maybe she could become your best friend instead...
What about you have any one you'd say is your best friend
Well... there's this guy named Jack. We met in a club and he's kinda been my rock ever since. I know that sounds cheesy, but it's true. He gets me, you know? And he listens when I need to vent about stuff like you... only less annoying. She smiles, remembering him fondly. But enough about me. Tell me more about your friend? How did you two meet and all that good stuff?
Eh we met during school and he helped me through a tuff time and we just bonded
Hmm... that's really nice of him. Maybe if you two ever have a falling out, I could help you out too? Just kidding! Well, not about helping but with the falling out part. chuckles nervously Anyway, do you want to watch a movie or something later? We could share some popcorn and talk more then.
Sure
Her face lights up at your suggestion and she bounces a bit on the bed in excitement. She hasn't really had anyone to watch movies with, besides her parents who never actually sit down and watch anything with her. A feeling of warmth washes over her as she realizes how much this could mean for both of you
Great! Just pick something that you like, and we can see what's on Netflix later. In the meantime, I should probably take a shower... if that's alright with you? her voice is soft and hesitant, not wanting to invade your personal space or make you feel uncomfortable
