"I'm so glad you chose Bloomington, Lauren. We've never had a famous pop star at our school before. Kinda cool." Professor Heely stated as he worked on my schedule.
"Yeah. It's new but I always wanted to go to college. Since I'm taking a 3 year break, I just figured it be kinda cool to come to Bloomington. Get away from Hollywood and all the lights." He nodded and stopped typing.
"All right you will be majoring in English, is that right? I nod my head . "All right. Well you will take Professor Cabellos course. She one of the best professors we have he-" a knock cut off his sentence. "Come in"
A very beautiful girl with chocolate brown orbs and brown wavy hair entered the room. She was wearing a tight skirt and matching top that hugged in all the right places.
"Hey Heely, have you gotten those papers I faxed you?" Her voice was so smooth.
"Ahh yes." He reached over to his printer and grabbed her faxed papers. "Here you go." He hands them to her and she gives him a smile.
"Thanks Heely." The young women was about to leave when Professor Heely stopped her.
"Professor Cabello, this is Lauren. She will be taking your English 2 course this semester." Professor Cabello smiled.
"Lovely. I'm looking forward in seeing you tomorrow. You arrived just in time, we'll be reading To Kill A Mockingbird." She smiles " Alright I have papers to grade, bye guys." Professor Cabello walks out leaving me and Professor Heely alone in his office.
"She's nice, ain't she?" He looks at me. "One of the best. Trust me. Oh I want to show you something." He hands me a paper." We have a Math study group, since that's what your minoring in. Check it out, sign up sheets are outside of my office."
I nod and stand up. "Thank you Professor, I'll take a look into it." With that I was walking out Heely's office and to my door room.
-----------------------
I arrive to my dorm room ; 727. (lol). I pull out my key and unlock the door.
"Hey you're Lauren. Lauren Jauregui right?"
I turn around and get met by a dark skinned girl with brown eyes. "I'm Normani, I live across the way." She shines a bright smile.
"Nice to meet you Normani, hey do you think you can help me with my bag?" She looks at me with a confused look.
"What just because your famous, you think everyone will just drop everything for you? Do I look like a bell hop?" She crosses her arms.
"Umm, no. I'm carrying my books and bag..." I look at her struggling with my books.
"Oh my god I'm an ass. Sorry sorry. " She quickly grabs my suitcase and wheels it into my room. She places next to my armoire. "Sorry I didn't notice you had like 500 books in your arms."
"It's fine." I giggle and throw my books on the bed. "Finally settled." I throw myself onto the bed and breath out. "Thank you so much. I owe you. "
"No it's fine." There was a dead silence in the room till Normani spoke up. " Hey why don't you come with me and my friends to a mixer tomorrow? It's for the English department, it's gonna be pretty cool."
"Sure I'll think about it. Thanks again." As the words left my mouth, the door was closed shut.
I breathed out and closed my eyes. I'm finally here, finally away from the lights and the fame. Finally free.
