When I entered the dorm room, I was greeted by three guys lounging on the couch, engrossed in a heated gaming session. I cleared my throat, trying to get their attention.

"Excuse me," I said, trying to sound assertive, but I couldn't get any of their attention. I then walked over to the TV and unplugged it, they then screamed "what the f**k"

I succeeded in getting their attention "can you please get out of this place, and where are my roommates?"

"roommates? this is our room, I think you were roomed with us" one of them said.

"what! I was roomed with boys!!" I yelled.

The guys exchanged skeptical glances, and one of them muttered under his breath, "Great, just what we need."

I stood frozen in the doorway, my eyes scanning the room in horror. How could they do this to me? how can they room me with... boys.

One of them, a tall, dark-haired guy with piercing blue eyes, stood up from the couch and walked towards me, a charming smile plastered on his face. "Hi, I'm Ethan," he said, stretching out his hand for a handshake.

WTF! Why is he introducing himself to me? doesn't he get the situation I am in? " look, I am Barbara Jones and you three dickheads need to get the hell outta here immediately"

"don't you think you are being rude?" the guy named Ethan said.

Well I wasn't trying to be nice at all "look me being nice would be the least thing I would do if you don't get your butts outta here" I snapped at him.

The other two boys, who had been quietly observing the exchange, spoke up. One of them, a tall, lanky guy with messy brown hair, his face seemed familiar to me, but I can't remember where I saw him from, he said "look, you can't just barge inside a place and then ask the owners of the place to leave, you should f**k off"

"I would leave, because I can't stay in a house filled with testosterone's" I carried my luggages and left the house. How can I stay in a place filled with boys.

I grabbed my luggage and stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind me.

I marched straight to the principal's office, determined to get this situation sorted out. When I arrived, I was greeted by Principal Valencia's calm, serene smile.

"Miss Jones, what seems to be the problem?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with concern.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "My room... it's filled with boys," I said, trying to keep my voice steady.

Principal Valencia sighed. "I'm afraid that's the only VIP lounge we could get. Would you rather stay in a normal dorm room?"

I shook my head vehemently. "No way. I paid for the VIP package. I expect to get what I paid for."

Principal Valencia nodded sympathetically. "I understand. But perhaps you could try to make the best of the situation? It's only for a year, after all."

I hesitated, unsure of what to do. Part of me wanted to dig in my heels and refuse to stay in the room. But another part of me decided to stay, as far as it would make me to go to Harvard. Like I said , I can do anything for Harvard.

I took a deep breath and made a decision. "Fine," I said. "I'll stay. But if they get under my skin, I'm coming straight to you."

Principal Valencia smiled, a hint of amusement in her eyes. "I'm looking forward to it, Miss Jones."

I left the principal's office feeling... not exactly triumphant, but at least determined. I would survive this year, no matter what. And who knows? Maybe I'd even learn to like my new roommates.

As I walked back to the VIP lounge, I felt a sense of trepidation. What would the boys be like? Would they be friendly, or would they be jerks?

I took a deep breath and pushed open the door. The boys looked up at me, their faces expressionless.

I didn't know how to feel, I had already approached them in a mean way, I wondered if they would be nice to me.

"Hey, didn't get a change of room?" the guy with the messy hair mocked.

I sighed " there aren't any other rooms so I guess I'm stuck here with you guys"

"I guess this year would be my worst year in Andover" the guy said and stood up to go , while I scoffed. "I would be in my room, since this b**ch here has ruined our game" I glared at what he said.

After he went upstairs, the third guy with ocean blue eyes with a brown straight hair said "at least they roomed us with a beauty and not a dork, there are so many things I would like to do with you" he smirked at me.

I looked around the room. It was... not bad, I suppose. There was a large flat-screen TV on one wall, and a kitchenette in one corner.

But I didn't care about any of that. What I cared about was the fact that I was stuck in this room with three boys.

And I had no idea how I was going to survive it here.

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 68

    Chapter 68 – "What He Saw" Barbie’s POV Have you ever noticed that the world always feels quieter after something you didn’t want to happen… happens. Like it wants you to feel guilty for what you have done. That silence crept in slowly as I walked home from the boardwalk after my meeting with Jasper. My fingers still trembled from the way his lips had touched mine—soft, familiar, but completely wrong. It wasn’t the kiss that haunted me. It was the fact that I hadn’t stopped it fast enough. It made it look like I wanted it to happen, like I wanted to kiss him. I pulled away though. I had even said no. But for a second, just a second, I’d frozen. That second was all it had taken for guilt to seep in, like a crack forming in everything I’d been trying to hold together. I hate guilt. The wind tugged at my coat. The sky was a dull, heavy gray, like it, also knew that someone walking under it was breaking-me. When I got to the apartment, the lights were off. Liam wasn’t home yet. I

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 67

    Chapter 67 – "Not Like This" Barbie’s POV It had been three days since Liam confirmed he was going to Paris. The news had settled in like a soft fog around our apartment. There was no fighting. No tension. Just this gentle, aching space between us where all the plans used to live. I didn’t blame him. Why would I, it's just life, some people would always leave. In fact, some small part of me admired his courage. But that didn’t make it easier to breathe when I watched him sketch silently across the room or when I reached for him in the middle of the night and felt the weight of everything we weren’t saying. I spent more time at the library, more time with Lucy and Dolly. I started avoiding the apartment for longer stretches, afraid I might break into pieces if I sat still long enough. That’s how I ended up with Jasper. Again. We hadn’t talked much since he got back from London, but he’d been trying. He texted often—soft, careful check-ins. Occasionally flirtatious, but mostly

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 66

    Chapter 66 — “What If I’m Not Enough?” Barbie’s POV The days were blurring now. Liam had officially accepted the offer in Paris. His excitement was palpable, buzzing through our apartment like static electricity. He’d started learning basic French phrases, printing out articles about the artist he’d be shadowing, and talking about the art scene in Montmartre like it was already his second home. And I was happy for him. Truly, deeply happy. But something inside me was slipping. I was supposed to be thrilled for my boyfriend chasing his dream. I was supposed to be proud. Supportive. But instead, I was scared. Not of losing him, surprisingly. Of losing myself. Again. It started one rainy afternoon in the studio. I was alone, trying to work on my portfolio. My fingers hovered over the sketchpad, pencil poised. Nothing came. Not a single line felt right. I stared at the blank page for what felt like hours. I could still hear my mom’s voice echoing in my head from her last cal

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 65

    Chapter 65 — “Stay True to You” Barbie’s POVI woke up to the sound of my phone vibrating against the nightstand. The screen glowed in the dim room—Mom.A knot formed in my stomach. It was too early for a casual chat and too late for good news. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes, sat up, and answered.“Hello?” I croaked.“Barbie,” my mom’s voice came through, calm but sharp. “You sound tired. Did I wake you?”“Kind of,” I mumbled, stretching. “Is everything okay?”“Yes, don’t worry. Your father and I just wanted to check in.”I glanced at the time. 6:57 a.m. Not even my alarm had gone off yet.“Check in?” I repeated, already feeling the conversation tightening around me.“You’ve been... distracted lately. Every time we talk, you’re either talking about Liam or you sound like you’re somewhere else entirely.”I bit the inside of my cheek. “I’ve just been busy, Mom. School’s a lot.”“And Liam,” she added.I swallowed hard. “Yes, and Liam.”There was a pause on the other end, long and point

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 64

    Barbie’s POV The moment Liam said, “I’m going,” the world shifted. I knew it was coming. He’d hinted, danced around the idea for days, and I tried to pretend I didn’t notice. But now that he’d said the words out loud, the weight of them crushed the air from my lungs. “To Paris?” I asked, even though I already knew the answer. Liam sat across from me in our living room, his elbows resting on his knees, fingers clasped together tightly. He nodded. “Yeah. I called them back this morning. I told them I’m accepting the mentorship.” My hands trembled in my lap, hidden by the throw blanket draped over my legs. I kept my face composed—supportive. That was what love meant, right? Being happy for him, even when every part of me wanted to ask him to stay. I didn’t know it would hurt like this, it really did. “That’s amazing,” I said, managing a small smile. “You’re going to be working with Elias René. That’s everything you’ve wanted.” He ran a hand through his hair. “It’s only for three

  • SEDUCED BY MY ROOMMATES   CHAPTER 63

    Chapter 63 - Liam's POVI received a letter from my artist role model, I haven't opened it yet, I feel like I would like what was in it, and at the same time hate it.I opened it later and read it again an again, then placed it back on my table. The letter sat on the edge of my desk like a loaded weapon. I read it again for the fifth time, though the words hadn’t changed: You have been selected to join Master Renaud Laurent for a six-month artist residency in Paris, France. Paris. Six months. With my role model. My dream. So why did my stomach churn with something more than nerves? I glanced at the window. The sky outside our apartment was a dull gray, with streaks of early spring rain. The soft patter on the glass was normally calming, but today it felt like a ticking clock. Each drop was a second slipping by, a countdown. Barbie was at school. I knew she’d be home soon. I turned to the canvas I’d been working on—a portrait that had Barbie written all over it, even if I hadn’t
