The Roommates Novels & Stories

•.• Skylar •.• “I’m Room 16,” Harper said, staring at her phone. “Queens Hall.” She looked up at me. The school had sent out details of students’ dorm rooms and every other vital piece of information through email. “What room are you?” she asked, and I pursed my lips, staring down at my phone. “Room 17…” I was interrupted when Harper shrieked and threw her arms around me. “Our rooms will be right next to each other!” she grinned, and I cocked my head to the side.

“I was worried that you’d run into danger if I left you alone here. What do I find instead? You’re flirting around!” It was Caleb. His first words might have sounded like concern. But what danger could I possibly face on campus? Moreover, David was also my roommate. How could this possibly be counted as flirting? “He’s domineering and controlling!” I thought bitterly. David gave Caleb a ghost of a smile as he looked at him. Their eyes met for a few seconds before David turned to me. “Keep the ointment with you. Remember to apply it a few more times.” I kept quiet. I was worried that Caleb would think up another punishment for me.

"We have six luxury suites," Mira explained. "And twelve—well, now thirteen—contestants. You do the math." "Roommates?" Sam, the Fitness Bro, asked. "I need space. I have equipment." "You'll have a bunkmate, Sam. Deal with it," Mira said. "I've posted the list by the stairs. Go find your new best friends. Or enemies." The group surged toward the list. Elion stayed where he was. He didn't need to look. He knew.

"They are cookies. My mom made them. She always packs too much." "Why?" "Why cookies or why am I being nice?" He shrugged. "Cookies because they're good. Nice because you look like you need a friend." I took the bag. "Thanks." "We're ordering pizza later. You in?" "Maybe." "Cool. Fair warning, I know Luca's kind of an asshole but he's not completely terrible. And I'm told I'm delightful company." He walked backwards toward his room. "Oh, and the fourth roommate shows up tomorrow. Theo. He’s a vampire and a quiet guy, keeps to himself."

Her breath stutters. The candle flame bends suddenly as a breeze slips through the window. They both notice it at the same time. Alicia reaches forward to steady the candle. Their fingers brush. Electric. Brief. Unmistakable. She pulls back immediately. “I—sorry,” she says. “It’s okay,” he replies, just as quick. They sit back in their places, hearts beating louder than the rain. “This doesn’t change anything,” she says after a moment. “We’re still just roommates.” “Yeah,” he agrees. “Just… two people sharing space.” “And honesty,” she adds. “And honesty,” he echoes. The candle burns low. When they finally lie down that night, the rain continues to fall. And though neither of them says it al

Still, there are more people with more money who put on a bet to get better accommodation at this current state. "So you can choose your roommate now," said Ren Zhi after they've all entered the suite. "All right, Ying Yue, you're with me." Risa is already pulling Ying Yue's arm and dragging her into one of the rooms in the big room that they have. Xui Li also made his way to a room, followed by Ren Zhi behind him. Leaving Ha Eun and Xue Mei at the living hall. They were so fast in choosing their room partner, huh?

"Not really, only five places, including this apartment! this apartment is by far the best!" "Is that so? earlier, the man said there was an empty apartment with three bedrooms. If you don't mind, how about we share a room?" "What? share a room? with you?" ***

You live with your five friends, in the college apartment. Where you enjoy each other's company. Plus all five, like you secretly. Jeke is very romantic and stubborn with you. Lucas is playful and in love with you. Nicolas is serious and possessive of you. Henri is obsessed and jealous and Levi is shy and affectionate. You are in the living room of the apartment watching a movie, when you heard the sounds of footsteps in the door, which indicated that the boys had arrived.

Quinn immediately sent a message to our class group chat and specifically tagged Ms. Carlton. "Dear classmates, to thank Ms. Carlton for taking such good care of us, I've booked a private room at the Regalion Hotel. Order whatever you want—don't worry about my wallet. And if any of you skip out on this dinner, I'm gonna be mad!" The messages that came after that were all singing her praises. "Whoa. Quinn, your family must be loaded! This is the Regalion Hotel we're talking about. A single dish there costs hundreds of dollars!"

he stammered, the hesitation in his voice impossible to disguise. It wasn’t really my place to pry. “Am sorry, I didn’t mean to pry into your privacy. After all, we were nothing more than roommates… and occasional fuckmates. There was no exclusivity between us,no obligations,no promises and certainly no claim over one another—nothing that justified my curiosity. Bang. Bang. Bang.
