Chapter 2:

Casey kisses Derek at the stairs and walks up two flights of stairs. She turns left and into her suite. A living room was in front her. She saw three rooms in the middle and one room on the left. There were two other rooms on the right. The bathroom was across the room on the left. She started at the left and read the names on the doors.

The first room there was Cheyenne Silinonte and Hailey Guerin. Felicia Alvey and Amy Curmier were in the second room. Casey saw her name on door number three. Her roommates name is Audrey Vinchesi. The fourth bedroom was Taylor Lemuix and Missy Carreras. Kiara Yates and Zoe Bickmore were in the fiftieth room. The last bedroom Annabelle Star and Kaitie Meyers were together.

Casey looked around and saw that someone brought a microwave and TV in the box out in the living room. So far only three rooms had stuff in it. All of a sudden the door bangs open and a girl with black hair comes in carrying a fridge. She walks into Casey's room and sets it down. She gets off the floor and looks at Casey and smiles.

"Hi! I guess you're Casey. I'm Audrey Vinchesi. I'm from Connecticut. Where are you from?"

"I-I'm from Canada. I wasn't quite sure what to bring for our room. So I can go out and get stuff if you want," Casey said.

"Well, I think once everyone gets here we can have a meeting and talk about what we need for the common room. I mean for our room, I think we only need a fridge and a fan. Which I didn't get," said Audrey and her eyebrows furrowed.

"I can get an AC. That's not a problem," Casey said and went to the door.

"Wait! Don't get it now. You might want to do that later," Audrey said and Casey had a confused look on her face. "After the meeting you should get your stuff. But if you're going to explore we should exchange numbers."

Casey laughed and said, "Good idea. Um…my number is 302-597-6365."

Casey got her cell phone out and put Audrey's name in it and number. She walked down the stairs and bumped into a guy with long brown hair.

"Sorry! I'm so sorry. I just got distracted. I-," Casey babbled to the stranger.

"It's ok. I'm Jason," the stranger said and put his hand out and smiled. His teeth were perfect. Straight, white, so white they sparkled.

Casey shakes his hand and feels her knees go weak. "Casey, Casey McDonald. It's nice to meet you. Well, I have to go. I'll see you around."

Casey walked around and thinks about Jason. He looked familiar to her but Casey couldn't quite place where she saw him. And the knee thing! That hasn't happened in a long time. I'm married to Derek. How could I like someone else? Just stop thinking about it Casey and open the door. Casey opens room 202 and walks in. she sees Derek talking to his roommate so she stays in the doorway. Casey knocked a few minutes later since no one noticed her. Derek runs around and smiles.

"Hey Casey! This is my roommate Levi. He's from Maryland," Derek said.

Levi shakes hands with Casey and smiles. I didn't go weak in the knees there. So why did that happen with Jason? Just get back to the present!

"Hi! What do you think you'll major in?" Casey asked.

"Um…I've always wanted to be a doctor but I don't want to go to med school for six years. I was also thinking of Bioengineering. What about you?"

"I'm not really sure. I wanted to do something with kids, maybe teaching elementary school," Casey said.

Derek smiles and wraps his arm around Casey. "Casey could also be a lawyer. She always gets her way."

Casey hits him softly while Derek laughs. A knock comes from the door and they all turn to see who it is. A tall guy with sandy brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes walks in the room.

"Um…all the guys are here and we wanted to have a meeting. Mostly just getting to know each other. By the way I'm Nathan but I like to be called Nate."

Derek and Casey said simultaneously, "Nice to meet you."

"I'm Casey," Casey said and shakes his hand while Derek said, "This is Casey my wife."

"Wife? Oh boy, if you ever want to make-out or something could you do it in one of the gardens?" Nate said while smiling.

Casey turns beat red and Derek laughs. "You read my mind Nate. I already booked it for tonight," Derek said.

Casey rolls her eyes and kisses him on the check. "I'll see you later," Casey said and walked off.

Casey walks in her room and sees that everyone is unpacking. A girl with brownish red hair stands up and dusts her jeans off.

"Hi! I'm Kaitie. I'm from Tennessee," the girl with the brownish red hair said.

"Hi! I'm Casey. Are we having our meeting yet?" Casey asked all confused with everyone in the living room.

"Not yet. We wanted to put up out plasma TV. Taylor's dad gave it to her," Kaitie explained.

"Oh, okay. Can I help with anything?" Casey asked.

"Sure…" Kaitie said and they started to put it together.

In forty-five minutes the TV was set up and facing all three couches. It was on the left wall near the door. Everyone sat down on the couches and all yelled ow at the same time.

"These couches suck," whined a girl with short black hair and green eyes.

"Hear, hear!" everyone shouted and laughed.

"By the way, I'm Taylor. I guess we can start the meeting so I'll go first. I'm from North Carolina and love the ocean. I'm doing cross country this year so I'll be waking up early to go running. I want to major in Cosmetology," Taylor said.

All the girls did this and it took over an hour to get to Casey.

"I'm Casey and I'm from Canada. I love to bake and I clean when I get nervous or when I'm bored. I want to major in teaching elementary school but I've been told I should be a lawyer. I'm actually married and have twins. A boy and a girl names Lia and Jon," Casey said.

"Do you have any pictures of the babies?" someone asked.

"Is your husband here?" someone else yelled.

"Let's see your ring!"

Casey laughed and said, "Actually my husband Derek is here. He lives on the second floor in room 202. His roommate is gorgeous by they way. I do have pictures of Lia and Jon and of course you can see my ring!"

Everyone crowded around Casey and awed the ring. Casey got pictures out and everyone cried out how cute they were. Casey smiled and thought, I'm going to have a good year.
