My Roommate is a Boy
He was straightforward, and with the way I was coughing, I was just glad I hadn't downed any of the liquid; otherwise, I would have been coughing my heart out now.
“He is my roommate.”
“I didn't argue that.”
“How can I like him?” I muttered, taking the cup to my mouth gently and sipping on it. “He is Taylor and I am me,” I added.
“Well, that’s not how the heart works, and just because you are River doesn't stop you from liking him.”
“I can't like him.”
“You can’t, or you don’t?”
“What’s the difference?”
“For a nerd, I am sure you do know the difference,” he said, and I stopped myself from jumping into the pit he had dug for me.
