A.N. There are minor exaggerations in this as opposed to what actually happened but I have to keep it interesting right? :)
It's been about a half an hour since I got back to my room. All I've done in these thirty minutes is lie on my bed and toss my soccer ball with one hand and catch it with the other. Apparently my roommate has been bitten by a Brown Recluse spider and is in the hospital. I kind of wish she was here though. So I would have at least one person to talk to and not be left to my thoughts about a certain blonde haired blue-eyed girl at this camp.
Realizing I wasn't being very productive I decided I should start doing something. So I started doing some sit-ups. I was just finishing my third set of one hundred when there was a knock on my door. I opened it to find to find another blonde. Not the blonde who has occupied my thoughts, but her roommate.
"Hi," she said with a smile,"I was just talking with my roommate and we heard that you didn't have one so we thought we'd invite to our room to hang out and stuff...if you want to that is. No pressure."
"One what?" I asked. I figured she meant a roommate but I wanted to be sure.
"A roommate. You're the only person here who doesn't have one and no one should be alone at camp." She told me with a smile.
"Alright. Let me just grab my shoes."
I put on my shoes but I didn't bother to tie them. I was just going down the hall after all. It was then that I realized I didn't know either of their names. I watched as not-my-blonde opened the door to her room and I followed her in. That's when I saw her and I'm pretty sure my heart skipped a beat. She looked up from her phone and had the biggest smile I've ever seen. Her smile seemed to be contagious because I couldn't help myself from smiling back.
"Hi! You're Santana, right?" She asked. She seemed more open and not as shy as she had seemed earlier.
"Yeah I am. I'm sorry...I don't know your names." I honestly felt kind of sheepish saying that but oh well.
"I'm Brittany, from Kansas, and this is Quinn, from Colorado." She explained with a smile.
"Nice to meet you both," I said, "I'm Santana, as you already know, and I'm from New Mexico."
"That's so cool!" They exclaimed at the same time.
Not really, I thought
"Yeah I guess so." I offered.
It got kind of quiet and there felt like there was an incredibly uncomfortable silence in the room. I put my hands in the pockets of my sweats and tried to seem like I was uncomfortable. They let me into their room after all.
Breaking the silence Brittany asked me, "So what position do you play?"
"I'm a goalie." I answered.
Her face lit up while she listened.
"Me too!" She exclaimed as she got up to give me a high-five. "Quinn isn't though. She's a forward." She had a teasing tone to her voice and I found it so endearing.
I loved how she was so confidant and able to be herself around new people. If I'm being honest, I was kind of jealous. That had never been my strong point. I'm actually kind of proud I'm doing so well now.
"Oh shut up Britt. The only reason you're a goalie is because you don't run." Quinn countered.
"That's the reason I became a goalie." I said with a smile.
"See? Santana gets it. And for the record I play Basketball, too. I could run miles around your sorry ass."
Smiling at their banter was all I could do at this point. They were hilarious and I was starting to be really glad I actually came over.
They turned back to me and then Brittany asked, "Santana? How old are you?"
"I'm 17," I replied. "How old are you two?"
"I'm 17, too, and Quinnie here is 16. I think she's the youngest on team U.S.A."
Before you get the wrong impression, no Brittany didn't mean the national team. The camp had been split into two teams. Everyone 16 and older was on team U.S.A. and everyone 15 and younger was on team Australia. Team U.S.A. was on one side of the building and team Australia was on the other. Which was kind of nice because if I'm being honest, I saw how the younger girls were acting and they were just obnoxious as all hell.
I saw the clock out of the corner of my eye and realized we need to get ready for the evening training.
"Hey guys? It's almost time to go downstairs to leave for training so I'm gonna go get changed, okay?" I didn't want to be rude and just walk out.
"Oh yeah. That's cool, we should get ready, too. See you down there." Quinn said.
Brittany just offered a smile and wave as I was leaving. I waved back of course and with a smile on my face I headed back to my room.
It didn't take me very long to get ready. I just had to get some water, get everything I needed in my bag, and put my hair up. Curse the luscious locks I have been given. After double checking to make sure I had everything I headed down stairs.
When I reached the bottom I saw Quinn and Brittany talking and laughing with each other. I couldn't help but smile at the sight. Brittany chose that time to look up and our eyes locked. She smiled and waved me over. I realized then that I was gonna be having more fun without a roommate than I would have ever had with one.
