You and your best friend are hanging out in a dorm room. For the first time in four months you have some time alone, neither of you having dates.

"So, how was your last date?" your roommate asks you.

"Ugh, can we not? He was a complete self-absorbed asshole, who spent entire dinner talking about himself and, listen to this, his exes and how hot they were. And before we paid for our dinner he asked me how come I was so quiet. Really. Y/RM/N, I barely said a word. Plus, I had to pay for our dinner because he 'forgot his wallet'," you complain to her. Usually you keep your emotions for yourself, but today you really need someone to talk to.

"How can you find assholes like that? Really, Y/N, you are like a magnet for dickheads."
"Thanks, I guess? I don't know Y/RM/N, I really don't know. So, how was your date last night?"

"It was honestly amazing. Jaccob was being a gentleman for the entire evening and I really enjoyed in his company."
"Will you see him again?"

"I hope. I really liked him and-" her phone starts ringing.

"Just a sec."

She picks up her phone and smiles widely: "HI, Jaccob. How are you?"

She walks in a next room and you can't hear the entire conversation, but as she walks back into your living room, you notice huge grin lighting up her face.

"Did he invite you out?"

"Even better. He invited me to his teammate's house party."

"That's great!"

"And you are going with me," she continues with a smile. You look at her, shocked expression on your face, but she seems dead serious despite her smile.

"What? No. I don't want to be a third wheel."
"Come on. As much as he told me, I believe his team mates are pretty normal."

"But I really don't want to."
"And I don't want to be the only girl among boys. Pleaseeeeee Y/N. I am begging you, please. Please, don't leave me alone."

She gives you puppy eyes and you sigh: "Fine. Just for an hour, okay?"
"You are the best! Thank you so much! And maybe we could find you a boyfriend..."
"Not a chance."

"Why not?"

"Because... Because I don't want a boyfriend."

She looks at you and says slowly: "You are always complaining how much it sucks being single. Don't tell me you don't want a boyfriend."

You roll your eyes, knowing you can't lie to her: "Fine, maybe I would like to have someone, but that doesn't mean I'll go with the first one that comes in my life and happens to be attractive."

"Okay, okay. But please, promise me, you won't become an ice princess between those guys."
"I won't."

She looks at you with her eyes squinted, making you throw up your hands in defeat: "I won't! I swear I won't."

"Great! So we are good to go!" she claps her hands excitedly and before you can even think about what have you gotten yourself into, you are both dressed and sitting in your roommate's car.

Twenty minutes and few missed directions later you are standing in front of a beautiful and big house.

"Wow. This is..."
"Pretty impressive," your roommate finishes your thoughts. You grin at each other before Y/RM/N ring a bell. Few seconds pass before the door open, revealing tall and quite muscular man standing on the door stand.

"Jaccob!" Y/RM/N greets and throws her hands around man's neck. Shy grin draws on his cheeks as he embraces her.

"I am so glad to see you, Y/RM/N. And who are you?"
