I looked at the clock, 4:00pm; it was two hours before we would arrive in Clemson, South Carolina. We is me, Elle Bennet, Jane Bennet. We were going to Clemson University for our first year in college. I was so excited! I couldn't say the same for Jane though, she was homesick and we just left the house not even three minutes ago! We are from the town of Lexington, South Carolina. We went to Lexington High School and we lived in the most respected neighborhood in Lexington, Longbourn Estates. We were what people in that town called well of and I hated it! I wanted to lead a normal life where people wanted to know me because of me and not my family's money. I was staring out the window of the car while my sister was trying to talk and drive at the same time. "Elle what are you thinking about?" Jane asked in her angelic voice. "You know the usual, daydreaming about me being the main character in my favorite novel, Pride and Prejudice" Jane laughed "So are you Elizabeth?" I laughed "You know it is so weird that we have the same names as the two eldest Bennet sisters and their description is a description of ourselves!" Jane laughed and agreed. I reached over and turned the radio on to my favorite station, 104.7 wnok, and started singing along with my favorite song of the moment, All Summer Long by Kid Rock, I loved this song! I would love to experience the things he was singing about in the song and find someone to experience it with. "Singing sweet home Alabama all summer long!" I sang at the top of my lungs. Jane looked at me and just laughed. I swayed my body back and forth to the song while singing along. We were driving in my 1966 mustang convertible, a BMW convertible drove besides us and I started to sway my hands in the air. The people in the car beside us, two very cute guys might I add, laughed and one of them a brown haired boy started to sway his arms along with me. Jane started to laugh and sped up while we talked about how cute those guys were. "I'll take the dark haired boy because he suits me don't ya think?" Jane laughed "I think he does!" I laughed along with Jane some more.
"Jane were here!" I said in awe as I looked at my dream school. "I know isn't magnificent!" Jane's eyes had a sparkle as she talked of the beauty of the school. Clemson University was before us. I saw the top of Tillman Hall and thought of the beauty of the history of this campus. The car came to stop in a parking place in front of Barnett Hall dormitories. We got out and grabbed our stuff. I sat my stuff down on the ground while I stretched, revealing my slim stomach under my green Hollister halter top. My brown hair was pulled up into a simple bun, my bangs hanging on my forehead hiding my big brown eyes. "Elle hurry up we need to register!" I grumbled and grabbed my stuff and followed her into the dorms.
We reached our room and found the door open and chaos unraveling inside. "Hello is there Casey Simpson in here?" Elle called through the little apartment. A slim girl ran to the door and looked at us. She had light brown hair with the big puppy dog hazel eyes. She had a dark denim skirt on with a turquoise tank top on. "Hi I'm Casey" she said with a huge grin plastered on her face. "Hi I'm Elle and this is Jane we are rooming with you" Casey grinned and stood aside and signaled for us to come in. "Well I'm your RA also and I will be the only junior in this building this year." she walked over to a leather couch and sat down "I will be staying in the last room on the hall and ya'll will be sharing the second door on the left. Lydia and Kitty which aren't here yet will be in the room beside yours. Mary is in the room across from ya'll" I looked confused "Who will be in the first room on the right?" Casey laughed "They are having an experiment to see how six girls can live in the same dorm apartment as two boys and we have been selected to be those six girls" I looked at her to Jane with a worried look. "It will be fun!" Casey said. I just looked at her and Jane groaned "Their names are William Darcy and Charlie Bingley. They are two single young men! I think we will have fun!" she said. As if on cue two guys came through the door. I noticed that they were from the BMW convertible we saw on the way here. I nudged Jane to see for herself. She did and silently groaned. The first one to acknowledge us was a red haired boy "Hi my name is Charlie Bingley and this is my friend Will Darcy" he said pointing to the dark haired boy. I stuck out my hand "My name is Elle Bennet and this is my sister Jane" He smiled at me but when his gaze fell on Jane it seemed as if nobody was I the room but themselves. I glanced at them and then turned my attention to Will Darcy "Hi I'm Elle" he nodded "You're the girl singing sweet home Alabama all summer long" he said with a grin on his face. I smiled back at him "Yes I am" he chuckled. "What's so funny?" Will turned towards Jane and Charlie "Them two love sick puppies" I laughed. "Where are you from?" he asked "Lexington" he smiled "I live at Myrtle Beach" I grinned "I love that place!" I exclaimed. "Good" he smiled
