Jade's POV

I arrived at the college building after a 45 minute ride from my hotel. The buildings were HUGE, and also looked majestic.

I walked into the main building. Then to a counter, and there was a lady sitting behind it.

"Hello! You must be Jade Schmidt!" The lady said.

"Yes I am."

"Welcome to our school! Here is your room key, and also your schedule." She handed me a key and a piece of paper.

"Thank you miss. Bye!"

I went to a spot where there was a map of the school on the wall. And I found out that my room, room 335, was on the third floor. So I used the elevator.

When the elevator stopped and opened the doors, it stopped in a really long hallway with marble floors and white walls. There were some people talking around and moving their suitcases inside. And on every side there were white doors with small gold plates on the top saying their numbers.

So I walked until I found the door that says 335 on it.

I opened the door. My room had 2 single beds, a drawer in front of each bed, a door that labels Bathroom, a flatscreen tv on the wall across from the beds, a sofa facing the TV and a big window across from the door.

Either I have no roomates or she hasn't come up yet.

I unpacked my bags and put my laptop on the bed near the window. After that I watched TV.

A few minutes later, a girl came in. She had wavy, brown hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a white with black polkadot blouse, black skinny jeans and white 2-inch heels.

"Oh hi! You must be my roomate! I'm Kaya by the way." She said in a British accent.

"Hi Kaya! I'm Jade, are you new or on your second semester?" I said shaking her hand.

"I'm new but some of my friends go here too. You?"

"I-I don't have any f-friends yet." I stuttered.

"It's okay, hey, why don't you meet my friends later? Then you can have many friends!"

"Okay then, thanks Kaya."

"Your welcome Jade."

She walked to her bed and started unpacking. I on the other hand, showered and changed into a pair of skinny jeans and my The Beatles t-shirt.

"You like The Beatles?" Kaya asked.

"I LOVE The Beatles. Why'd you ask?"

"Well one of my friends seriously loves The Beatles. His name's Thomas. I'll introduce you to him. You guys can be best buddies."

"Oh, I don't know, I'm not good at being friendly. I'll just make things awkward." I looked down.

She put her hands on my shoulder.

"Hey, don't talk like that. You made me like you. So don't think like that, okay?"

"O-okay."

She smiled and continued unpacking, while I got back to my favourite show, NCIS. It was an amazing show. The problem was they were just playing old episodes because they never played the new season.

Suddenly, Kaya's phone rang.

"Hello? Oh hey Dyl! Yeah I'm almost done. Okay! That sounds great! Bye, oh wait tell Thomas that she loves The Beatles too. Okay bye!" She said to the phone.

"Who's that Kaya?" I asked.

"That's my friend, Dylan. He's inviting us to his room next door."

"Then why didn't he just come here?"

"He said that he's not going out with a paperball war outside."

"Okay how about we tell Dylan to not lock the door, then we get ready, and just bolt out the door and hurry inside his room?"

"That sounds good to me!"

So I turned off the tv and put on a jacket on top of my shirt while Kaya called Dylan and told him the plan.

After a few seconds, we approached the door and I held the doorknob. I mouthed 'One...Two...Three!' We bolted out the door and Dylan was right, students were throwing paperballs everywhere. When we reached their door, we went inside and trymied to catch our breaths.

"Hey Kaya! Long time no see!" A boy said and hugged Kaya.

"Hey Dyl! And by the way, we didn't see each other for only half an hour." She smirked.

"Well that's a pretty long time to me." Dylan said.

"Oh yeah, this is Jade my roomate. Jade this is Dylan." Kaya said to me.

"Hi Dylan." I said shaking his hand.

"Nice to meet you Jade."

Dylan had brown hair and brown eyes. He was wearing an elbow-length, dark green shirt and brown jeans.

"HEY GUYS!!!" A boy shouted, peeking from the bathroom.

"AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!" Me and Kaya screamed. 

"THOMAS YOU ALMOST FRIKIN GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!" Kaya shouted while repeatedly slapping the boy's arm.

"OKAY! OKAY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!" This Thomas screamed.

He was catching his breath while me, Dylan and Kaya was laughing our booties off.

"So what's your name?" Thomas asked me with his soothing British voice.

"Um, I-I'm Jade. I'm Kaya's roomate."

He smirked. "Oh, nice to meet you Jade" We shook hands.

There was something about his smile that just made feel weird. Not like sick but like nervous. And his voice, I could listen to it all day. His dirty blonde hair was kind of messy but still looks hot. Wait what?

Kaya nudged me taking me off my thoughts.

"I'm sorry what?" I said, blushing.

"I said, why don't we just watch a movie." Dylan said.

"Oh okay. But what are we watching?"

"Hmmm... How about we watch Mocking jay Part 1?" Kaya said.

"Sure!" Me, Thomas and Dylan said in unison.

Dylan put the CD in the player, while me, Kaya and Thomas prepared the snacks. Then, all four of us sat on the couch and watched the movie.
