YOU

  This was totally not my fault.

  They call it 'random picking' on the application for a reason. Gar doesn't seem to comprehend that. The person that stood before us was not only a guy, but a very cute guy. And even Gar thought so. He had seemingly soft, jet black hair, piercing green eyes and dimples. Oh. My. God. Dimples. He stopped moving when he saw me, his eyes flickering from me to Gar then back to me. This went on for a second until he cleared his throat.

"Hi?" I know, I know, I have a boyfriend, and I love him dearly. But this guy's voice was sexy, so soft and so calm that it would knock any girl down and have her with her legs open on the bed. Ugh, horrible thought.

  "Hi," I breathed. He fidgeted in his spot for a second, before shutting the door and trying to slide past me. I scooted over, my shoulder bumping into Gar's chest. His arm immediately wrapped around my shoulders and he held me tightly to his chest.

  "Um.." he set his things down. It looked like he had just as much as me,"I'm Tyler."

  "(Y/n)." I said, wiggling out of Gar's grasp and beginning to set up my bed. I obnoxiously pushed everything off my bed, and picked up my bedsheets. Yep. Normal. This is what I call normal. I tucked my sheets in and flipped my cover onto my bed as neatly as I could, while my boyfriend stood, glaring at my new roommate. Gar spoke with his eyes. He was saying, 'Touch her, and you're fucking dead meat.'

Gar's communicator went off, and I turned around, shrugging at him, "You can go and come back if you want. Take my car if you need to."

"I don't need your car but thanks babe," he kissed my forehead,"I'll be right back." He quickly changed into a dog and sprinted out of the room.

"That your boyfriend?" Tyler questioned, staring at the door with his covers clenched in his fists. I nodded.

"Sorry if he scared you. He can be very.. protective." I smiled sheepishly at him, turning around to my finished bed. I fixed my pillows, then reached in my backpack and pulled out my laptop, setting it on my dresser.

"Yeah.. I was sure he wasn't your brother. You're not green." He snorted softly, his shoulders bouncing. But, I could see disappointment flickering in his eyes. I felt a little guilty for some reason.

I said nothing, taking one of my energy bars, which my mother happily stuffed one of my backpack pockets with, and opening it, sticking part of it in my mouth with the wrapper still hanging on the end of it. I hopped on my bed and set my laptop in my lap, opening a new tab and searching for my schedule they were supposed to send by email and by paper. I refreshed the application page, and nothing different showed, so I exited out and went to YouTube, hooking my headphones up.

I couldn't help but eavesdrop and listen to Tyler exploring the dorm. His 'whoa's and 'wow's were too cute for his own good. I felt him tap my leg, and I nearly jumped out of my skin.

"Um, which side of the closet do you want?" He questioned, motioning his thumb towards the door. I shrugged.

"I don't know I guess I'll take the ri-"

"What has two thumbs and loves a guy named Tyler?" Our heads whipped towards the door. Tyler's face lit up, and I sat back with wide eyes.

"Yuki!" He said energetically. The door swung open, and a girl with long fiery red hair pulled into two pigtails zipped in and jumped on him,"Yuki, you're here!" He kissed all over her forehead, and I couldn't help but frown. Now I know how he felt with Gar and I. But, if he has a girlfriend, why did he–

"Oh, I missed my big brother!" She cooed, pushing her head into her chest. That explained it. "And he's got a girl roommate! I can already feel the love in the air!"

"Oh, no no no." I blushed profusely.

"She's with.. someone." He scratched the back of his neck, and she frowned.

"Too bad. But, hey! There's still a chance, this is the sweetest guy you'll ever meet!" She ruffled his hair and he laughed, his neck beginning to turn red,"I'm Yuki, Tyler's adopted sister."

"Sister. Just sister." He put a hand on her head. Her ocean blue eyes lit up, and she turned back to me. I stared silently, rattling my brain around to figure out what to say next,"She came to college with me, but insisted she drove her own car. She complained that I was a 'reckless driver'" he used his fingers as quotation marks and I snickered.

"I'm (Y/n)." I smiled wholeheartedly, and she clapped her hands together.

"Five minutes on the campus and we've already made a new friend! That's awesome sauce!" Yuki did a little happy dance. I could tell this girl had nothing but energy in her. I chuckled, and shut my laptop, just in time for Gar to hobble inside. We need to learn the habit of locking our door.

"Great. It's a party." Gar snorted hoisting himself on the bed near me.

"Well hello to you too, Grumpy." Yuki chortled, leaning on Tyler.

"Who's strawberry shortcake over here?" He jabbed his thumb in the direction of Yuki. Tyler let out a guffaw, and tried to cover it up with a cough. Yuki's face twisted until it looked like she sucked on a bag of lemons.

"This is Yuki. Tyler's sister." I motioned to her,"She's also at the college with us."

"Yeah. And who are you, mate? The world's most extreme vegetarian?" It was my turn to laugh, and Tyler's eyes sparkled, as he looked at me. I turned my head away from Gar, because I knew he was glowering at me. Gar gripped my arm, tighter than I think he meant, and he pulled me towards him,"I'm her boyfriend, Ga–I mean Beast Boy." Yuki nodded lightly as if she wasn't the slightest bit interested, and Gar nudged me.

"Can I talk to you?" He glanced at the siblings, "Privately?"

Well sugarshit.

Sorry to put it like that folks. I should really watch my foul mouth. Well how'd you like this chapter? Yes, I was thinking of anime when I came up with Yuki. In case you're wondering lol.

Y'know I don't think Gar and Yuki like eachother. Hm. What do you think? Pfft. Oh god it's so late at night T^T

Xoxo,
