A/N: Hi everyone! So, this is my first EVER fanfic! I'd thought I'd try and be more creative with my time. Please review and let me know your thoughts, critic is welcome as long as it's pleasantly put ;) Also please be aware I am British so some things might be spelt slightly different, although I chose to spell the 'Mom' this way because of course the characters are American ;)


Disclaimer: I do not own these characters (Unfortunately, I'm not quiet that lucky) I'm just borrowing them.


Chapter 1

Catherine Chandler was about to embark on one of her scariest adventures yet- College, This might not sound all that scary but for a self-proclaimed hermit this was kind of a big deal.

She didn't lock herself away because she didn't look 'right' and probably wouldn't be socially excepted, If anything she was easily one of the most prettiest Freshman to arrive at Princeton.

Catherine had long, very straight, brunette hair. Her little sister Heather had always been envious of the fact Catherine never once had to invest in a pair of hair straighteners. She was petite which gave off a vibe of helplessness although Catherine being helpless was not the case, Far from it indeed!

And she had the most confusing eyes, you could never tell if they were Green or Hazel – it depended on how the light was catching her face at that particular moment making them all the more enticing.

So- Here she was, first day, trying to find her room.

Catherine walked down the long narrow corridor scanning the door numbers.

"510,511,512 ahh 513"

She opened the door and ploughed straight into a wall of body.

"Ohh, Uhh, Sorry!" Catherine breathed out with her eyes to the ground.

"Uhh, That's okay, Do you always make a habit of barging through doors? If so I better warn your roommate!"

Catherine looked up as soon as she heard the male's voice and her cheeks turned redder than they already were. She took a long look (Maybe too long) at him she might be a hermit and inexperienced when it came to things such as boys, But she wasn't dead, especially when said boy had a face like his-God like!

"No, sorry I just, n-nerves I wanted to get in my room as soon as possible" She explained with a sheepish smile.

"Ah, Well I'm Vincent- Vincent Keller. I'm just here helping Tess, your roommate, move her stuff in."

Catherine stood there awkwardly for a moment then realising she hadn't even introduced herself, as she was about to a tall girl with a bright smile came in the room.

"I'm Tess" She beamed with her hand held out waiting for Catherine to shake it.

Catherine pretended not to notice not because she wanted to be rude, but it was that stupid anxiety thing she had going on. She settled for giving a half wave instead.

"And this is Vincent" Tess continued on.

"We've met" Vincent piped in. "She walked into me on her way in here"

Vincent explained, making Catherine's cheeks turn beetroot yet again. "God- I'm such a clutz"

"Well.. Does this 'She' have a name?" Tess inquired.

This time it was Vincent's cheeks that burned remembering he hadn't even bothered to ask her name.

"My names Catherine – Catherine Chandler, you can call me Cat though everyone else does"

"Well Cat it's nice to meet you roomie, we're gonna have a lot of fun in room 513"

"How can you tell?"

"I have good intuition about this stuff, trust me!" Tess announced whilst throwing Cat a wink.

Vincent cleared his throat.

"Well I've gotta get going, I'll uh leave you two roomies to get better acquainted, I'll see you later." Vincent said to Tess more as a statement rather than a question.

"Yeah, sure" She replied not even giving him a second glance.

Vincent stopped and gave the room one final look over and Catherine too before leaving.

Catherine had just finished putting the last of her stuff away; she took a look round the room. It was nice for a dorm room.

Her bed was on the left as you walked in Tess' the right, there was a big window in the wall between their beds. They both had bedside tables and a desk at the end of the beds, Tess had some posters of her favourite boy band on her side and Catherine some cutesy trinkets on shelves.

They had a nice Cream fluffy rug in the middle of the room (courtesy of Tess' mom) Tess had an Orange bed set and Catherine's Teal and some Orange and Teal lamps on their respective desks. All in all even though they had different styles they mashed quiet well, the room already felt homely which almost never happens in dorms. Luckily they even had their own toilet; the door leading to it was next to Tess' desk.

They still had a communal shower but at least they didn't have to trek through the hallways if they had the sudden urge to pee at night.

Catherine didn't have class for a week yet- none of them did. This week was supposed to be about getting comfortable and making friends before you had no time to have friends because you're swamped with work. But Catherine didn't come here to make friends that had NEVER been her strong point – She was too awkward. So what in the hell was she supposed to do for one whole week?!

It was 6'0clock when Catherine's stomach let her know it was time to eat; she decided to venture down to the food hall. She had to eat right?

"Please don't let anyone talk to me, I've met at least one too many people already today and its only day 1" Catherine thought rather wearily.

Luckily Cat wasn't subject to any interruptions over dinner.

When she got back to the dorm Vincent was there "Does he not have a dorm of his own?"

Catherine decided to just sit and read, she loved to read it was one of her passions getting lost in a book and not having to deal with her own life – her own very boring life! She probably would have majored in English had her father not been as pleased as to hear she was considering Law after him. So, Law it was.

Tess and Vincent were messing around playing some silly online game, it was nearing on 9PM not late by teen standards, but by Catherine's it was a different matter.

She was getting tired and grouchy; she was pushing herself to read on, not wanting to spoil their fun. I mean what right did she have to do that? Catherine didn't know them! They were acquaintances, Cat and Tess were going to be living together for at least 1 College year, and So Cat didn't want to come off as a total bitch.

Vincent left around 11, much to Cats relief; she finally drifted off with one last thought "One day down- a million more to go"
