WOW! This is so much different then my normal. It won't be sci-fi related at all! Read my other stories too!!! And if it sounds bad, its because I'm trying to stray from blood, guts and Goths. I've gotten comments on the Goth part…so this is for you!

Book One: Memoirs Of The Broken Hearted

Chapter Two: The Problem with RAs

Lita, Rei, Amy and Serena stood in the guest parking lot of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh waving as they watched Mina drive away in Serena's parent's minivan, with promises of the girls coming home every time they had a break. Serena hugged Lita and leaned against her pouting. This was the second time they had to say good bye to a friend because of college, only this time it went from one going away to college to only one driving away leaving them to finish up the little details in their dorms.

Rei, Amy and Serena had gotten lucky with their dorms. Their building was right next to Lita's and their suite was exactly that, a suite. Instead of the normal two girls to a room they got to room all three of them in one room, none of them had to room with a total stranger like Lita did last year.

The four girls turned from the empty view where the van had been and walked back towards their dorms. Lita came with them to help them out until they met with their RA or residential advisor. Who, according to Lita, was a bitch.

Lita sat on the plush pink beanbag chair under Serena's bunk watching the three new freshmen put their things away. Serena's side had a big pink plush beanbag chair, a black metal desk chair with a pink seat cushion, a purple desk lamp and a generic silver metal alarm clock. And as for the bed spread? Lita rolled her eyes as she watched Serena roll out her Tinker Belle bed set that she got from Hot Topic. "You and your Disney obsession Sere."

Serena stuck her tongue out at Lita and giggled as she threw it up on top of the bed. "So sue me. But you have no room to talk, queen of the woodland fairies."

Lita crossed her arms and looked over to Rei who set out a large, red cloth chair with a white pillow on it, and he desk chair was a typical white computer chair. Her alarm clock had a dragon and wizard on it that went with her desk lamp bed set and plethora of dragon stuffed animals. Almost everything Rei had set out was red, white and black or dragon. It kind of went with her White Stripes poster that she put right above her desk.

Amy pushed her glasses up as she sat on her mound of pillows that were all different shades of blue reading one of her course books. Amy's side of the room had a large teal book shelf already full, a blue computer chair at her desk, an aqua desk lamp, an aqua lap top on her desk, a mermaid alarm clock and a bed set that matched her mixed up pile of blue pillows.

Lita cocked her head to the side as her eyes darted around the room. Blues, red, white, black and pink, each girl was so similar and yet so different. Each girl liked something different, dragons, Disney, mermaids and fairies. She chuckled.

"My best guess is that, Amy or Rei is going to want to bunk with me a few times a month, because of arguments or Serena's messy ass." Lita mused as she got up to help Rei put up a poster of My Chemical Romance.

Serena glared then shrugged "I'm messy, so what?" She turned back to put up a poster of Mindless Self Indulgence on her wall, above her desk.

Amy looked up and looked around. "I noticed something…with so many different styles. Me with my mermaids, Serena with her Tinker Belle and Rei with her Dragons…isn't it going to clash a bit?"

Rei looked around and blinked "Well…if we separate each space with something like out TV or microwave…it might create a wall of sorts and make it seem like each girl has her own "space" especially if we put down a carpet that collaborates with each color, like maybe white."

Just then a knock sounded at their door. Amy walked over and opened the door and standing there was a woman who stood at five foot ten with auburn hair falling around her shoulders, cold green eyes and pale skin. She had a short black skirt on that brushed the tops of her thigh high panty hose and a chartreuse sweater that fell off of one shoulder. "Hello freshmen…Lita…welcome to AIP! I am Beryl Smitz; I am your residential advisor this year! My room is on the first floor, room ten, so if you need me. I came by to see how you were settling it." Beryl stepped into the room and looked around a slight sneer on her face. "Well…it seems that you have moved in, completely it would seem."

Serena looked her over and cocked her head to the side as she crossed her arms "yup."

Beryl nodded "Good, hmm…room three, thirteen…ah…here we go." She pulled out three manila file folders "here are your course syllabi's and your schedules for your classes." She set them down on the table near the door. "Remember. Beryl room ten!" With that Beryl turned and left.

Rei stared at the door then looked at Lita "we're supposed to rely on that?"

"Yup…she keeps staying here year after year. My friend Molly, who is a junior here, had her an RA her freshman year. We think she's about twenty-six." Lita said raiding the mini fridge.

"And she is still here? Most people graduate with a four year degree when they're twenty-two. She must've been held back or something…can you even be held back in college?" Serena asked as she picked up the folders and laid them on each of the girl's desks.

Lita shrugged and downed the can of Amy's V8.
