Anna looked around her room, wondering what colours she felt like painting her walls. She smirked to herself as she could hear Wanda and Kitty squabbling outside her door. She sat up and moved to go to mediate when she heard the door next to hers open and close and a familiar voice telling the pair to shut up.
Anna smiled as she opened the door and saw all three girls fighting now. Laura with her beautiful Raven hair pulled up in a messy bun on the top of her head, stood in between the other two girls. Wanda on Laura's left stood glaring at Kitty, Her red and black hair now shoulder length, making her look more fierce then ever. Kitty who now looked tiny next to the other two girls stood to Laura's right glaring back at Wanda and pulling her cute mouse brown hair up into a pony tail as though she anticipated this could become a hair pulling contest.
"Guys Am Outtah the room for five minutes an ya'll killin each ova" Anna smirked as all three turned to her with a glare.
"Oh like you're so perfect" Kitty cried back to Anna.
Anna rolled her eyes and turned to go back in to her room "well if ya'll wannah kill each ova don't let meh stop ya" she called as she shut the door.
They had just moved in to their new apartment and the girls had been at each other all day.
The four girls had been roommates in the high school and now at college had moved in together off campus. Anna sat on her bed thinking about each of her friends, she had known Laura the longest, and Anna's mum was friends with Laura's mum and dad. They had grown up together and had been right the way through school together as well. The two girls met Wanda on their first year on high school when she was placed in their dorm and they hit it off right away. Kitty transferred in to their dorm a couple of weeks after that as she requested to move away from her previous dorm because she had been put in with the populars however they didn't think she was "cool" enough to be in with them and had made her feel like crap most of the time.
Anna recalled how kitty had told the how they had kept pulling pranks on her and moving her stuff, even telling the boy she liked that she fancied him, only for him to look at her like she was a freak. Anna, Laura and Wanda had made friends with Kitty eventually as they didn't like the populars either and had gone out of their way to annoy them any chance they got so obviously befriending kitty was beneficial to all parties.
Anna lay back as she thought about her other two close friends and the two youngest in their group Amara and Jubilee. They had both moved in to their dorm the year after they had and where both shy and quiet at first but became more outgoing and chatty as they year went on. They both still lived in the dorms and she was expecting a full-blown account on Sunday on who were their new roommates and what they thought about them.
Anna smiled and got up to look through the boxes piled in her room, if nothing else she would make up her bed tonight.
Sunday morning
Anna woke up hearing movement around her, someone was cooking and she could hear music playing from Wanda's room.
She got up and made her way to the living room/kitchen. The apartment was open plan with four bedrooms and a large bathroom and balcony.
"Hello sleepyhead" Wanda grinned as she sat at the breakfast bar pulling apart a muffin. Kitty turned to see whom Wanda was talking to and gave Anna a big smile before turning back to the stove. Anna took a seat next to Wanda and started tucking in to the breakfast kitty had made. They chatted amongst themselves, giggling and talking about school and then boys…..
"So Anna do you miss Scott?" Kitty asked nervously she was never sure how Anna would react. Anna looked up a little stunned at the question and a flicker of pain moved across her face.
"well Ah would lurrve to say ah don't, ah mean ah hate him for what he did to meh and the fact tha he now walks around with her liake it never happened. Ah, mean not even ashamed of wha they did. An her" she was pretty much screeching now "well ah can't believe she had the nerve to smile at meh and act like she didn't steal mah boyfriend"
Wanda and Kitty both sat there stunned by Anna's outburst she wasn't normally the sharing type but they both knew how painful it was for her when Scott her childhood sweetheart had been caught cheating on her with Jean the head of the cheerleaders. Jean had a boyfriend at the time as well but no one was sure who he was or at least they had never found out.
Suddenly all three girls turned when they heard a door slam behind them. They all stared at their fourth roommate as she stood there looking a bit dishevelled. Her long dark hair was tousled from bed and her face normally painted to perfection was smudged from falling asleep before taking her make up off.
"Good morning sunshine" Anna smirked as she recovered from her rant, Laura glared at her and then turned to kitty and sighed, "Get me some caffeine quick will ya kit! Any morning where you wake up to someone screaming Scott Summers name is a morning for strong coffee"
Kitty got up and fixed her friend the drink, Laura took it from kitty and smiled at her as a thank you before taking a seat on the other side of Anna, she looked from Wanda to Anna and then back again trying to catch Wanda's gaze before speaking.
"So Anna what's with all the screeching this early in the morning?" the other two girls grimaced worrying how Anna would react to Laura's question.
Anna Glanced at her friends and felt sad about the looked on their faces, a mix of worry and hurt for their friend.
"ah don't know, Ahm just so ready to be ova him and then he turns around and smiles at meh and it hits meh all ova again like ah still lurve him but it hurts like a bitch when ah see him" Anna sighed she didn't normally talk about her feelings but she thought that she better explain the rant she had that morning.
"Well I never thought he was good enough for you anyway! And he proved that by going off with little miss innocent but ill fuck ya boyfriend in the janitor closet" Laura stated matter of factly while taking a sip of her coffee.
"Laura shut up! Like that was totally like harsh on Anna" Kitty scowled at her tanned friend.
"Look kitty am just telling her the truth like friends are totally like meant to do right?" Laura said mocking kitty.
Wanda looked at each of the girls and sighed " oh don't you to start, look Anna love don't worry about it, we aren't likely to see much of either of them this year anyway and you never know there might be someone out there wicked enough to tempt your delightfully gothic self in to loving them"
Anna smiled at Wanda and then got up to go towards her room "well ah don't know about ya'll but this delightfully gothic girl is off to paint her room"
Kitty soon followed Anna leaving Wanda and Laura alone.
"Why do you always put your foot in it?"
"I don't know I was trying to cheer her up"
Wanda smiled at Laura and patted her shoulder as she got up to go to her room.
Laura got up to do the same when she heard a large crash outside, she turned and headed for the door to see where the noise had come from only to have Jubilee bound in through the door nearly knocking her over.
"Hey watch it" Laura yelped trying to get her balance
"Laura come quick Amaras hurt her foot!" Jubilee cried with some over dramatic waves of her arms.
"Is she ok?" the two girls turned to see kitty coming out of her room.
"I don't know we where coming up the stairs and Amara ran in to some guy carrying boxes but she hurt her foot and so I came here to get you!"
"come on Kit before this one has a break down, show us the way drama queen" Laura smirked bowing at Jubilee in a dramatic jester type fashion, Jubilee scowled at Laura's remark but hurried through the door with Laura and kitty in tow.
Apartment 2B
Remy had been moving boxes around all day and he was tired but they only had a few more to move and the other boys were working just as hard so he kept going. They had just moved in to there new apartment Pietros dad had told them about it, they liked it straight away, the rent was cheap, and it was super close to campus. The four boys had been close in high school and when the chance came for them to move out of dorms and in to an apartment they jumped at it.
Remy paused for a minute to rub the sweat from his forehead and then brush his damp hair off his face. He thought back to how he knew each of his roommates while listening to them squabble and call each other names while moving there boxes about. Johns father had worked with Remy's father on a number of occasions and they had been friends since they where kids. Been together right through school and had met Pietro when they started high school they had been together in dorms and then on the football team. He met lance during detention one time and they had became friends pretty much straight away, lance was the type of kid that always meant well but always seemed to end up getting in to trouble. When Ray and Roberto had moved in to there dorm they had been quiet lads but soon opened up with there loud group and was now helping them move, they still lived in dorms as they where a year younger then the other boys. Remy smiled as he took his small trip down memory lane.
"Hey Cajun? Are ya gonna help out or you going to just sit there all day?" Pietro glared at Remy, he looked up stunned, he hadn't noticed the boys looking at him. Pietro stood there tapping his foot impatiently looking down at his friend who had been sat there with a stupid smirk on his face for the past 10 minutes.
"Desole Môn ami, Remy was jus tinkin dats all" he got up and stretched looking around the room before heading off to move more boxes. "You know mates he has been weirder then normal since that Sheila messed his head up" John stated looking at Pietro. Pietro sighed and looked at the back of Remy's head as he started working and then turned to John, "yeah well women aye?" they both smiled and started sorting through there belongings again.
Ten minutes later
"Hey guys how long have the others been it seems to be taking them forever to bring up those boxes don't ya think" Pietro moved around the room with ease and speed moving boxes and bags in to the other rooms and then coming back again to load up with more. Patience had never been a strong suit of his and John and Remy caught each other's eyes as they both rolled their eyes and smirked as Pietro checked his watch again.
"don't worry bout a ting Môn ami I is sure de will be along any min….." before Remy could finish speaking there was a loud crash outside all three boys stopped moving and looked at the door. They heard someone running and then the door across the hall open and a girl shouting and then more steps moving quickly along the hall way.
"Hmmm I wonder what that was all about" mused John out loud, "maybe we should go have a look-see aye?" John glanced at the others before heading out the door. Pietro followed behind at a brisk pace, Remy followed a couple of seconds after.
The Hallway
"come on Jubes am excited I cant wait to see there new place" Amara was jogging up the steps to the building, Jubilee rolled her eyes and followed her friend as quick as she could. "Mara, will you wait up please" Amara paused, halfway up the first flight of stairs, and looked back at her friend who was just reaching the bottom. "Jubilee haven't you missed them? I cant wait to see them, see there new place, tell them all about the new roomies we have and ask about there summer and speaking of summer I wanna know how Anna is, I mean don't you?" Jubilee looked up at her friend had she even taken a breath during that speech jubilee thought.
"Yeah I am excited but I don't think we really need to run, honestly its worse then gym class honestly"
Amara smiled at her friend and then carried on running up the stairs, as she neared there floor she heard the service elevator in the building open but thought nothing off it just kept running, suddenly she felt something in her path. The next thing she knew she was on the floor with someone on top of her and cardboard all around her person.
"What the….." Roberto was about to scold whomever he had just ran in to with the boxes but the next thing he knew he was laying on the floor on top of them and as he looked down, he found himself lost in the most beautiful pairs of brown eyes he had ever seen.
Amara could not help but stare back at the chocolate brown eyes in front of her she was entranced by them until she heard jubilees voices beside. "Omg Amara are you ok?" Jubilee cried as she looked down at her friend. Roberto and Amara both looked at the girl who at first looked shocked but then a smirk graced her lips as the two teenagers looked at her blushed. Roberto realised he was still straddling Amara and looked down at her and felt his cheeks become even more on fire as he tried to correct himself.
"I'm so sorry I couldn't see where I was going with all the boxes," he explained as he stood and looked between the two girls and then at all the boxes now sprayed around the hallway. "Are you ok?"
Amara snapped out of staring at the beautiful boy "erm yeah I think so and I should off been looking where I was going sorry" with that she tried to stand and then felt a pain shoot through her leg "ouch" she cried out and sat back down grabbing her ankle.
"Amara what's the matter?" Jubilee looked worried and bent down to her friend, "I think I have twisted my ankle, don't worry I will be fine in a minute" she tried to get up again only to be pushed down by a strong pair of arms. She looked up and found the beautiful eyes looking at her full of concern. "don't get up if its something more then a twisted ankle you could do more damage just stay there a minute and Ill get some help" Jubilee turned to the boy and looked at him a little amused. "Wait with her a minute our friends live just down the hall I will go and get them ill be back"
Before Roberto could move to do anything Jubilee was gone, he watched her run off down the hall and then turned back to look at the pretty girl sat on the floor nursing her ankle. He couldn't help looking at her legs as she rubbed at the bare ankle, she was wearing a pretty yellow summer dress and her legs were shapely and tanned and he couldn't help but look her all over and appreciate the way the dress hugged her figure and how her lovely brown hair cascaded over her shoulders.
"am so sorry about this" he bent down and attentively touched her ankle, "do you mind if I have a look" Amara looked at him a little puzzled but before she could speak she felt tingles all over her body as he held her ankle in his hands and felt around looking for broken bones or signs of swelling. Amara couldn't help but notice the softness of his touch and she couldn't help following the lines of his arms noticing how well toned they where and tanned, he was wearing a white T-shirt and black shorts, she noticed how the top clung to his toned body and felt her face flush as she remembered how warm he had felt on top of her. Before she could continue these thoughts she head a voice besides them and they both turned to see two boys looking at them puzzled.
"Whoa what happened here looks like an avalanche?" Lance stood next to Ray holding a large box in his arms; he was looking down at Roberto and the young girl sitting on the floor boxes surrounding them.
"erm we sort of ran in to each other" Roberto stood up quickly, letting go of Amaras leg and feeling himself blush, he turned slightly hoping that she wouldn't notice the pink hit his cheeks.
Ray smirked "well that explains the mess but what are you still doing on the floor?"
Amara opened her mouth to answer before she heard a noise coming from the other end of the hall, "Amara are you ok?" she looked up and saw three of her friends looking at her. Jubilee looked flustered and worried, Kitty was starring at the boys standing around her and Laura stood there with a smirk and raised eyebrow.
"course she's ok Jubes looks like Maras found herself three knights in shining armour to come to her rescue" Laura's smirk widened as every syllable rolled of her tongue.
Amara turned a scarlet colour and she looked down at the floor and then to her foot which was really starting to hurt now. "I just need some help to get up I will be fine," she said almost in a whisper.
Laura and Jubilee walked over to and started trying to get there friend off the floor but Kitty couldn't move she was gazing at one of the boys stood in the hall, she was locked in on his gaze and she couldn't move it was like all her sense had turned off. She looked him over looking at his ripped fitted jeans and noticing how they hugged in all the right place, then to his black T-shirt which showed off her muscular arms, then to his shoulders which were broad and strong looking and then followed the beautiful brown hair that was resting there up to a handsome face that was gazing back at her. She held his gaze for a few moments and then felt herself blush, she wished she could phase through the floor when she noticed he was looking back at her.
"Are you sure it's wise to move her?" Roberto asked making Ray and Lance snap out of there trances, they had both been staring at the new arrivals to this party and hadn't moved an inch since.
"Yeah you know it could do more damage if she trys to walk on it too soon?" Ray stated looking down at the brunette girl, she was wearing a yellow leather jacket and a green summer dress, which set off the colour of her eyes as she turned to look at him with worry for her friend, etched across her face. He couldn't help but smile at her as she glanced at him.
"well we cant just leave her sat there" Kitty explained as she approached the other girls trying not to look at the boy that had held her gaze so intently even thought she was sure she could feel his gaze still upon on her.
Lances head snapped up and he suddenly noticed that he should show this petite beautiful girl he was a gentleman, "well at least let us help move her?" the three girls looked up at him in surprise at the suggestion. They all moved back and looked at each other, kitty looked concerned but blushed as she realised her was smiling at her, Laura smirked at the other girls who where obviously finding this blush worthy.
"Well then you better help bring her back to our place then we will think off what to do from there" Laura spoke up suddenly realising all of the others seemed to be too lost in looking at each other to do anything. "Ray you move these boxes out of the way, Lance help me carry her please" Roberto was suddenly beside Amara in second and started lifting her from the floor.
"What's happening here then?" the group suddenly stopped and turned to see three very confused looking boys stood behind the girls.
"Erm well you see me and Amara bumped in to each other in the hall and she hurt her ankle we where just gonna help her back to her friends place" Roberto rolled out this explanation quickly as though he had to justify the whole seen to the older boys.
"Me tinks dat we best help out des jolies dames then hadn't we" Remy crooned as he looked around the girls. John smirked looking around the other boys who seemed awestruck at the girls in front of them and then turned to Pietro who also seemed to be having a staring contest with one of the girls.
Pietro was staring in to a pair of large blue eyes, he looked over the girl she was wearing a small pair of shorts and vest top which where barely covering her curvaceous body, she was obviously still in her pyjamas, he hair was still tousled from he could assume was just getting up but it made her look hot as he imagined running his hands through it and tousling it in another way, he looked up to her face and caught her eyes looking at him, there was something familiar about her but he couldn't put his finger on what that was. Suddenly he heard Remy speak and started to move uneasily as he realise he had been having some rather risqué thoughts for this girl he had just laid eyes on.
Laura felt uneasy as she saw him look her over, but she couldn't help but do it back to him. He was wearing a pair of dark jeans that showed of his thin but athletic build, he was wearing a silver shirt that was open showing off a black vest underneath, she couldn't help but notice the way it clung to his Abs and how the silver shirt set off the colour of his perfectly combed silver hair. She caught his gaze, looked in to the violet eyes, and couldn't help thinking there was something so familiar about him but she just couldn't put her finger on it. She heard the other boys talking and started to move and she shuffled uneasily and then turned to look at the others.
Roberto picked up Amara with ease and then looked at the girls for direction on where to go with the young girl in his arms, he noticed how warm she felt against him and how light and delicate she seemed in his arms. He couldn't help but notice the blush on her cheeks as he looked down at her and smiled.
Jubilee ran off in the direction of the apartment and opened the door and started to plump pillows on sofa in the arrival Amara, she suddenly stopped when her hand went to reach for a pillow and grabbed hold of another hand, she gasped and looked up to see who's hand she was holding only to see the boy that had been smiling at her in the hall, he must of followed her. She looked at his face and he was smiling at her again, she could not help but notice his interesting hair, orange with yellow bangs hanging down around his face.
"Erm sorry bout that but can I have my hand back now please?" Ray smirked at the young girl who appeared to be in shock, "oh yeah sorry I just didn't know you where there" Jubilee turned her head away from his gaze to avoid him seeing her blush.
They looked up as the rest of the group came through the door. Roberto moved over the sofa and place Amara down, Kitty and Laura went to the kitchen to get some ice for Amara ankle. Jubilee quickly joined them when she realised she was stood in the living room surrounded by the boys.
Kitty turned around suddenly realising they had not really been very good hosts in the process of worrying about there friends. She looked over to see all the boys just standing around looking at each other a little awkwardly.
"oh like am so sorry, make yourselves at home can I like get you a drink or like something to eat or anything?" she smiled trying to hide her nerves as she spoke in rapid succession and then noticing that she had said like to many times.
The boys just looked up at her and all mumbled no thanks and then started to sit and make themselves comfy as the three girls came back to tend to there friend.
Laura turned to them and smiled "well I guess we better introduce ourselves considering ya'll are sitting in our living room and we don't even know who you are?" she smirked glancing around the room. "That's Amara on the sofa, the one who your friend here tried to knock in to pieces," she said with a devilish look on her face as Roberto turned a bright red and looked away from her gaze. "The girl sat next to her is Jubilee and that's Kitty and am Laura." she paused and looked around the room waiting for one of them to talk but they all just sat there.
Impatiently she looked at them with a questioning glare and started speaking again "so who are you then? Or are you all hard of hearing or summit?" they all turned to her and realised they had been a bit out of it.
Pietro cleared his throat and then started the introductions "the guy who ran over your friend there is Roberto, the gothic looking two sat there gawking at your friends are Ray with the bangs and Lance with the ripped jeans, that's John with the lighter" he looked over at John who was playing with his favorite toy and not paying attention to any one in the room. "That's Remy over there in the chair and am Pietro"
"Pietro?"
They all turned to see Wanda standing in her doorway, music blasting out her room and a paintbrush in her hand.
"Wanda?" he looked over at his twin and couldn't help feeling stunned, he hadn't seen her in a year and here she was living across the hall from him.
"Y two no each other hey Môn ami?" Remy questioned looking between the two, "erm yeah you could say that" Wanda spoke as she walked in to the room and grabbed hold of Pietro for a hug; he smiled and hugged her back. They then turned and said in unison "we are twins" everyone in the room looked between the two and seemed surprised.
20 minutes later
Shot through the heart and your to blame darling you give love a bad name
Anna had been painting her room for a while now and was pleased with how it was coming along. She stepped back to admire her artistry and then started singing along with the music she was playing.
An angel's smile is what you sell…. You promise me heaven then put me through hell
Her soft sweet voice carrying over the radio, she was so pulled in to the song she started dancing around her room without a care in the world. She didn't notice the unusual set of eyes staring at her from the doorway.
Everyone had been chatting and talking about moving in to the building and making idle chatter. Pietro was talking Wanda and they were discussing about how there father had both given them the information about this building and must have known they would both take it.
John was still playing with his lighter and sat in silence occasionally looking up and glancing at Pietros twin but then would look down he supposed it was so he wouldn't get caught by there silver haired friend.
Remy looked around the rest of the room and noticed that they all seemed rather enthralled in conversation; he really needed to pee so he got up and headed down the little hallway towards the bathroom.
Whoa, you're a loaded gun…
Whoa there's no where to run
No one can save me the damage is done
As he neared the door, he could hear a song he loved coming from one of the rooms and before he knew what he was doing, he had opened the door. The music was pouring out of the room but it wasn't just the radio there was a beautiful voice also coming from the room. He stepped in to door way and spotted a site that made his breath catch in his throat and he felt his eyes grow wide as he watched her spinning around the room singing. She was the most Belle fille he had ever seen. She was wearing a pair of black denim hot pant shorts, that showed off her alabaster legs that where slender yet toned, as he glanced down her legs he spotted a pair of knee high black boots that where covered in buckles with a wedge and platform heel. He glanced up her body noticing her green vest T-shirt which was raised slightly over her abdomen due to her vigorous dancing, his eyes continued to move upwards. He noticed a magnificent cleavage but didn't focus there for long as his eyes felt the need to see the face of the beauty before him. She had was singing and had such a relaxed smile on her face his heart almost stopped there and then he looked at her brown cascade of curls that where moving along to the music almost like they where dancing as well, and when she turned again he noticed the front of her was a brilliant white which set off the colour of her green eyes…wait green eyes… green eyes that where staring right back at him.
Paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A schoolboys dream you act so shy
Anna stopped dancing and singing when she spotted the red and black eyes staring at her from the doorway. She looked him over stunned by what he was doing there, his muscular build filling the door way and his eyes glowing as they where looking her over, she had never seen eyes like them before but couldn't help but look in to them. He noticed her looking and shifted his weight uncomfortably. The music carried on in the background.
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
The song finished and they both stood looking at each other. Anna couldn't bear the tension of the silence and so broke the awkward atmosphere around the room.
"Don't mean tah be rude Sugah, but do tell ah gurl what'cha ya doin standin at her door way?"
Remy almost bowled over as she spoke, hearing her southern accent was like music to his ears.
"Pardon chere Remy was headin t res't room when e' heard a angel singin from dis ere room and e' jus had t' see where twas coming from petite" he smirked at the girl who was looking a little flushed as he spoke.
Anna couldn't help the blush that happened when he called her chere only for it to become more intense as he mentioned her singing. oh gawd how long was he standing der?
"well dis aint de bathroom sugah an I think ya'll really shudnt be lookin in on a gurls room wit out 'er permission don't ya'll?" she looked at him, questioning him with a raised eyebrow.
Remy flushed a little as he spoke "suppose not petite Remy's sorry for d intrusion belle ami"
"There you are mate" Remy turned to see John standing behind him with Laura following behind.
"oh I see you have met our final room mate, this is Anna" Laura smirked as she looked at Remy pretty much gawking at her friend, and then to Anna who was looking a little flustered obviously by the introduction to the tall handsome Cajun.
"Well I guess we should be going now Rems we still got a load of work to be doing back at our place huh buddy?" John glanced between the two teens that they had interrupted and could swear he saw sparks flames flying through the air between them.
They all walked back to the living room, Laura introduced Anna to everyone else and eventually all of the boys left to go back to there own apartment. Leaving the girls to talk about the unusual turn of events that the morning had taken.
The boys doing the same as soon as they where behind the door of there apartment.
