I decided to write this to fuel those waiting for the story on Padmé (which will come hopefully by November) hope you guys like this one. My first AU!
I checked "anyone" on my list for possible roommates. That was first mistake.
Unlike most universities, we had apartments near the school instead of dorms that were actually on campus. I thought it was nice, considering I came from a place that was filled with poverty and dirt.
It was like any normal apartment. There was a living room and an immediate dining room next to the kitchen.
The living room made the wide gap between the two bedrooms.
I took the one closest to the front door. I wasn't sure when I was supposed to meet my new rooming buddy but at least I got first pick. I huffed as I set down the boxes.
My best friends Finn and Poe helped me move out and unpack. They were sharing an apartment so I really had no choice but to put anyone.
Classes started tomorrow so I had to set out everything. Clothes, pencils, books, phone charger,everything.
Even though my hair was up in three separate buns, I still felt the baby hairs sticking to the back of my neck from the sweat of unpacking.
It took from midmorning until late at night. I thought I deserved a much needed shower.
It really bothered me how quiet it was. I was used to being alone, but now that I have a supposed roommate coming, I've never been lonelier. I was almost scared to step out of the bathroom, into the looming Darkness.
I'm just overthinking.
I turned the water off and wrapped a towel around myself.
My second mistake was walking out.
I felt a burst of cold air on my wet skin as I opened the door. A looming, tall silhouette stood across from me in the shadow of the hall.
I jumped when I saw the figure, letting out a small scream and almost dropping my towel. The person began stalking towards me and I felt a cold sweat coming on or maybe that was the air against the water on my skin.
Once his face came into view from the bathroom light, my mind eased.
This man was extraordinary to look out.
"You didn't have to shout."
He cocked an eyebrow down at me. "Sorry," I mumbled.
He was still standing in front of me, staring at me with his dark eyes.
I swallowed. The intimidation was real. I shook my head and looked straight into his eyes. "You must be Ben-"
"It's Kylo."
"What?"
"Don't call me Ben. It's Kylo."
That was a strange name. "Is that like a nick-"
He spun around before letting me finish and went back to what was now his room.
How rude.
It said on the paper his name was Benjamin Organa Solo. Why Kylo?
I shrugged before realizing I met my roommate in nothing but a towel.
Please review! I love your guys' comments!
