Harvard.
The school of her dreams.
Not only did it basically guarantee her a job wherever she wanted, it also guaranteed that she wouldn't run into idiots who thought that a quick romp with the teachers would get them good grades. (Which it normally did, but that's not the point.)
Courtney Perce flashed a smile as she received her schedule and dorm key. Her smile grew when she looked around at her campus, and it grew even more when she went into her dorm. It was neat and orderly and matched her personality perfectly.
Of course, she had a roommate. She hadn't been fast enough to get a single dorm, and seeing as how Courtney rarely got along with girls, she had opted to share a dorm with a male. She didn't see it as a problem, as if worse came to worse, a quick kick to the 'kiwis', as Bridgette called them, would solve that problem.
It always worked before.
...
It's three in the morning when she hears the door to her new home click open, half expecting it to be the dean with a police officer telling her her roommate was found murdered in an alleyway.
When she does see her roommate, she almost wishes that were the case.
The first thing she notices, surprisingily, is that he's tall.
A lot taller than her. She wouldn't be surprised if there was whole foot of height difference betweent them.
The next thing she notices, is that he has a mohawk. A bright green mohawk.
Well then.
There goes her belief that she won't be meeting any idiots here.
...
The first thing Duncan notices about his dorm is that there's someone else in it.
He had wanted a single room dorm, but apparently, "something came up", because the next thing he knew, he was getting called into the office and being told that he now had a roommate.
A female roommate.
He had groaned, of course. Why wouldn't he? Sure, she could be hot, but chances were, she was gonna be a total bitch, or one of the typical girls who he fucked and left behind.
But he couldn't leave her behind, and that was the problem. He had to share a room with this girl, and if she was fuckable, it would make it a huge chore to not flirt with her. He refused to deal with a girl getting attached to him or, God forbid, him getting attached to her.
He wasn't gonna deal with another break up. Not a chance.
So, he avoided his dorm as long as he could. He went to a bar, hung out with friends, did whatever he could to avoid meeting this hopefully ugly girl.
But he couldn't carry around his suitcase all day, and begrudgingly went to his dorm, praying to all that was holy (and even that which wasn't) that his roommate would be both asleep, and a heavy sleeper.
But of course, Duncan had never been very devout, so he got neither.
...
After a moment of hesitation, Courtney stood up and walked in front of him, holding out her hand for him to shake and flashing politician smile number twenty-seven.
"Hello! I'm Courtney Perce, and I'm your new roommate. I trust we'll get along well."
She had recited it perfectly, without breaking character even once. She mentally patted herself on the back for only twitching slightly and thrusting her hand into his space again when his eyes trailed up and down her body, lingering on her breasts.
After she had completed said action, her new roommate, whose name she still didn't know, finally looked at her hand, though he didn't bother to shake it.
"Duncan."
Her smile shrunk slightly as she lowered her hand, hating that she had to look up to him.
"Well it's great to meet you! Is there any reason you were so la-"
He pushed past her, walking into what was now his room and throwing his suitcase down, letting out a low groan.
Of fucking course she had to be smokin' hot.

THIS WAS FUN TO WRITE.
I had PLANNED on making it longer, but I kind of like it how it is, haha.
Anyway, I made this for a few reasons.
One: To deliver good news.
Two: To deliver bad news.
The good news is, I plan on taking prompts. You can make them detailed or simple, nsfw, or fluffy. HOWEVER, what you cannot do is simply send in a one word prompt like 'angst' just send it in a review on this story and i'll try my best to do it (not all will be done though)
the bad news is that seven days is gonna be on hiatus for a while
i had planned on going with my schedule, i really did, but i've honestly just lost inspiration for it
i'm not discontinuing it, but i am taking a break from it
