Thank you guys so much for reading, please comment and tell me what you think :D

I woke up as the sun beaming in through my window hit me. I looked at the time seeing it was 10:05. I was thankful I didn't have classes for the next couple days so I could get my self settled in. I decided to get up and head in the shower since I had an interview for a job at a cafe down the block.

I hopped in the shower and as the warm water hit me, I couldn't stop thinking about what had happened last night with Sean. I mean it's not like I cared or anything, but who the fuck did he think he was kissing me like that and pinning me against the wall in my own room. I felt the anger boiling in me. I quickly finished the shower, put on my clothes and headed out to the kitchen for something to eat.

I decided on a granola bar, seeing as it was the only thing there was. I made a mental note to go get groceries when I got back. I walked into the living room to see Sean sitting there with two other guys inhaling a white substance which was obviously crack or some other drug. He got up off his lazy ass to my surprise and came to where I stood as I was putting on my shoes at the door.

"We need to talk" he said as if he was my boyfriend or something

"We sure do, but when I get back" I answered

"Where are you going" he asked, his voice a bit angry 

"To get a job" I replied 

"Why" he asked, this time I knew he was high

"Because the rents not gunna pay itself" I said as if I'd just answered the stupidest question and slammed the front door as I walked out, wondering how he was managing to pay it himself. I mean what kind of job could he have?

I looked up at the sign that said "Karen's Cafe" and I knew that this is where I would be working. It was a comfy little cafe and the people in it looked so friendly. I walked in and the lady at the counter genuinely smiled at me as she asked " Can I help you". "Yes, I'm here for an interview" I said smiling back at her. She chuckled " Are you, Samantha Hardgrove" she asked. " Yes" I responded. "I'm Karen, I have already went over your application that you sent to us and you got the job" she said still smiling. 

After going over my schedule we decided on when I would be working. She called over a girl who looked about my age. " This is Samantha, show her around and where she will be working" Karen said to the girl before walking off to go look after a customer. " Hi, I'm Megan" she said smiling at me. "Samantha, but you already know that" I said smiling back at her. She showed me around the cafe and we exchanged numbers before I left to head back to the apartment.

I was nervous to have this talk with Sean, but it had to happen sooner or later. As I walked through the front door Sean was sitting in the same spot he was before I left only his two other friends were'nt there. I took my coat off hanging it on the coat rack and then went to go sit on the couch as far away from him as possible.

" Sooo" he said

" Soo", "that's all you have to say about what happened last night" I responded angrily

" Why don't we have this talk when you're not being such a bitch" he said rudely

" Yeah, lets wait till you're not being an ass, but we can't do that cause if we waited for you to stop being an ass we'd never be able to have this talk" I said.

Before I knew it I was pinned to the chair with him on top of me. "Look just stay out of my stuff, its as simple as that" he said and with that he got up and was about to walk away. I stopped him when I said " No, this conversation is'nt over as yet" I continued when he turned back to look at me " You can't go around doing shit like that to me and smoking drugs in the apartment everyday, at least leave the windows open when you do"

" I'll do whatever the fuck I wanna do in my house " he replied in a harsh voice

" Yeah, well it's not only your house anymore, I live here too" I said.

He did'nt reply, instead he just walked back into his room. I decided not to go follow him because he seemed like he was pissed off enough. Besides I got a few things off my chest and to be honest, I felt good like I won that argument. I went in my room and layed down on the bed hoping that when I woke up it would all be better. It was only two in the afternoon and I never really took naps, but living with an ass was wearing me out.

I woke up when I heard someone knocking on the door. Its was Sean and surprisingly he was being nice. "I'm going to the store, you need anything" he asked. "I need a few things, Is it okay if I go with you" I responded. I needed tampons and I was'nt going to let him buy it for me. "Okay" he said and walked out to the living room. I fixed myself and then grabbed my purse and walked out the living room where he was standing texting. "Ready" he asked  and smiled at me when he saw me. " Yeah" I said smiling back and I was so surprise to how he can go from being such an ass to being so nice.

The drive to the store was so awkward, neither of us said a word to each other. There were times though when our eyes did connect and I could feel butterflies in my stomach when that happened. Wait butterflies, they were'nt butterflies, I mean you get butterflies when you like someone and I sure as hell did'nt like him.

When we arrived at the store sean got out of the car first and I followed right behind him. He grabbed a cart and we started walking down the aisles. We parted and he went to go look for his stuff while I looked for mine. I saw the Feminine Products aisle and walked into it looking for tampons. I had just found it when Sean came next to me. " Oh, so that's why you've been acting like such a bitch" he joked. " Ha ha" I laughed sarcastically, So whats your excuse" I retorted and we both laughed. We cashed our stuff and quickly went back into the car. 

This time driving back was'nt so awkward. We were listening to the radio and arguing what station to listen to but it was funny. Then my phone started ringing and it was my mom. Sean noticed and turned down the music. "Shit" I said, I had forgotten to call her.

" Hey mom" I answered

" Don't hey mom me, didn't I tell you to call me when you get there" she said jokingly

" I did'nt have time yesterday with all the packing and I totally forgot" I responded

" Yeah well hows your roommate, do you get along with her" she asked

" My roommates great, me and her get along just fine mom" I replied. I looked at Sean and he had a confused look on his face.

" Well, don't forget you have parents, we're here if you need anything, love you sweetheart" she said

" Love you too mom" I responded and hang up.

I knew Sean was confused so I started explaining. "My parents think that my roommate is a girl, if they knew I was living with a guy I hardly knew, I would'nt hear the end of it" I said. "Oh, lying to her own parent's maybe Sam is'nt the good girl I thought she was" he said looking away from the road to look at me with a smirk on his face. "Shut up and drive" I responded jokingly and we both laughed.
