LOGINIt's my ringtone that drags me up from my pile of blankets and pillows. I love sleeping on the balcony for so many reasons, especially the warm sun on my skin and cool breeze. I snatch my phone from the stool. It's my mother's nurse. That's a surprise considering the last time I was there, I was almost literally flung out. "What is it?" "It's your mother again," I want to say something sarcastic, but she sounds so exhausted. "She's been preparing all morning for her daughter's birthday party. There's no party right?"I check the date on my phone and sigh. Today is Angie's birthday. "I'll be there soon. Tell her I'm coming."I end the call and call my father. He doesn't answer the first time. Because I'm annoying, I leave him 32 unanswered calls. He calls back after my shower. "Hello dear daddy?""I'm busy Ander. Is there a problem?"I drop my phone to be able to dry my hair properly. "Did you seriously call me 32 times for no reason?""No. Your dear wife is acting up again. Come
Archer is in Madeleine's home. Much to his dismay. Since his little 'argument' with Vicky, they'd been on a no speaking term. The only form of communication was an unanswered good morning text from Vicky. Archer saw it alright. In fact, he has his phone in his hand as he stares at it. Just, replying means a stiff or AI generated response from Vicky. "What's wrong? You seem off." Madeleine comes to sit beside her boyfriend. She curves her hips for it to grab his attention. It doesn't. He doesn't even pay attention to her hand on his shoulder. "I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me so you don't need to worry." He tries to smile but it comes out all wrong. She looks at him, hoping he'll look back. He doesn't. His gaze trained on the off phone in his hands. "Okay. If you say so. I'm gonna wash my hair okay?"He grunts in response. As Madeleine leaves, Archer gets his phone again. At this point, he doesn't know what he's expecting. He responds to the text and also asks how he's doing
Finally my shoulder is healed enough for my dormmates to stop treating me like an egg. I wake up again for the third time that day. This time, I'm all alone. I can vaguely remember Magnus telling me he had an early morning test. It's almost 4 p.m and he isn't back. I shrug off the worries and prepare an easy dinner. I take my pasta and head to the living space to watch some TV. The first movie I pick is the most boring thing I have ever watched in my life. I send Aubrey a text explaining how I'm going to pass out from insane boredom. She doesn't respond so I succumb back to the tv. I'm nose deep into the new movie I picked when my phone rings. It's Archer. "Hello?.""Yeah, Vicky. Where are you?" He speaks so pleasantly it makes me confused. "I'm at the dorms. What is it? Why are you calling me?""I'm thinking of watching a movie at the cinema and I want you to come along.""Why?"Archer takes a deep breath. I hold mine waiting for what he'd say. "What's with the attitude? I'm tryi
I don't really like students' week for obvious reasons. It's too loud, they're a lot of people and most of them are sweaty. And right now, I'm one of those sweaty people. Somehow, by some crazy magic, I was drafted to be one of the runners in the baton race. I'm a pretty decent runner, but I always end up breathing like a fat ass hippo later. "You ready love?," Magnus asks. He walks up to me and I melt in his embrace. There's a lingering smell of sweat from his practices earlier. He'll be participating in lacrosse. I adjust my headband because the stupid thing keeps trying to restrict blood flow to my head. "No. Can't we just sneak back and cuddle under the sheets?""Don't be like this. I've seen you run and you're pretty good. You'll survive." I groan and slump back to my chair under the bleachers. "I'm the third person. You know, I had wanted to be the first. Get it over and done with.""You'll be fine. Take a deep breath and know that I love you."He kisses my lips and I hear r
The bed is so comfy I'm threatened to sleep in. Archer however doesn't have the same plans because he rolling over me and getting dressed."You're gonna have to get up eventually. You know this isn't my condo right?"I groan and drag myself off the surprisingly comfy mattress. "This place is so bright and the door's open. Did you notice that?""Anybody that comes up here is too horny to care about what another person is doing here. You're fine."I shrug and pick the pieces of my clothing lathered everywhere. It's not perfect, but I'll look presentable the rest of the night. "Did you leave any hickeys? You were biting my neck rather aggressively." I wish there were a mirror for me to check. Archer gets behind me and wraps his hand round my waist. "I fucking wish I could. To tell the whole world that I'm into you. That'd be something."I don't know where he's going with what he's saying, but I don't think I even want to know. "But, I have a boyfriend Archer. And he really likes me. I
There's a lot of things about the university life that Vicky enjoys. But, going for a party isn't one of them. He'd much rather stay home and watch a series or wank to thoughts of Ander. "Are you ready?," Magnus asks walking into the room. Vicky groans for the millionth time that evening. "No because I have absolutely nothing to wear. Let me stay back please." He hugs his boyfriend looking for a way to convince him."Nope. We're all going," Jesse says before Magnus can succumb. "Left to you, Vicky wouldn't even breathe on his own."Magnus flips Jesse then turns to face his boyfriend. "You have to go out babe. This party is going to be fun. Anyone who is anyone will be there.""But I'm not anyone," he grumbles."Well," Jesse says interrupting the couple. "I came here to see if you could do anything with my nails. They look so bad."Jesse had decided to try out different styles, and he was in his effeminate era. It did get him a lot more attention from both genders, but nothing seriou
It's 11:47 am right now. I've been up since 5 a.m because of Jesse. Today is Ander's birthday and he's planned a huge surprise party. Ander as usual went out for a party. Jesse is a hindered percent sure he won't be conscious till noon, so we don't have to worry about interruptions. "Vicky, have y
Vicky has gone to bed now. We watched the series for about 3 hours. It's almost 1 a.m now. There's no way I'm going to be able to sleep, so I'm squatting in front of the pool drinking dad's never ending stash of wine. One advantage of being filthy rich is getting debited and not even noticing it. Th
I hate classes that end in the evenings. Although they encourage me to sleep early or stay in, they also make me feel like murdering myself. I pick up my phone and check the time. It's 17 minutes to 5, and this Professor doesn't seem like they are leaving. My eyes close as I let my mind drift. Som
The drama that happened on the roof has in no doubt strengthened my relationship with Ander. I always knew this, but Ander is a very sarcastic person. It's like there's sarcasm layered in every of his words. Ander didn't sleep in the dorms last night. He said he was at his cousin's place, but I do
