Just as class began, it ended. I gather my papers in my bag and quickly dart out of the room. I quickly made it across campus to my dorm. Rushing up the flight of stairs and stumbling with the key, I finally make it into our room. To my disappointment Carmilla isn't in the room waiting for me.
I throw my stuff on my bed, and flop down next to it. I look towards Carmilla's side of the room and take everything in. More of her things have come in the mail and her side looks more like a room than before. On her walls she has a few posters from bands such as the Vamps and The weekend, and she got dark curtains to cover the window next to her bed.
She must really enjoy dark things, like her clothes and her side of the room
She got a different comforter than before that is, surprise, black. The only spurt of color on her dark colored side of the room is the yellow pillow sitting on her bed. Wait, yellow pillow?
That's my pillow
Before I have the chance to think about my pillow being on her bed, the bathroom door opens. Carmilla steps out with a black sports bra on and black running shorts. I must not have heard the shower running because seeing Carmilla half-naked surprised me.
Or did I like it?
A lot
I can't help but to stare at her body as she runs a towel through her hair. The dark scar on her pale skin nearly mesmerizes me, but her body itself is amazing. She has curves, while I'm just flat as a board Laura.
"Like what you see?" She asks with a laugh. I instantly snap my eyes away from her body and make eye contact with her. I feel my face burn as I try and figure out what to say.
"I was just, uh, trying to um"
"I'm kidding, but I must say, you are adorable when you're flustered Cupcake" She says giving me those damn eyes.
Those damn seduction eyes.
"So… How was your last class?" I ask still trying to recover from what she just said.
"Well, as much as I like philosophy, philosophy of the powerful 101 is a bit of a weird class." She gives me an uneasy look. "How was your last class?"
"Well we got an assignment to document hard news." I say.
"Hard news?" Carmilla asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Hard news is news that has an impact on people in a more serious sense" I say as if I was reading the textbook.
"So like the party you and I will be attending?"
"No, that's actually soft news which is- wait party?" I ask, caught off guard.
Is Carmilla asking me to be her date?
No, she just wants a friend there.
But it would be a nice date…
"The zetas are throwing a first week party, and I would love to go with you."
How can she ask so casually, I would be stuttering and freaking out?
"I've never been to a party." I awkwardly admit. This causes Carmilla to look at me in surprise.
"Did I hear that right? Creampuff has never been to a party? Did you live under a rock?" I suddenly feel embarrassed at the fact I've never been to one.
"No I did not live under a rock, I just had an over protective dad and I wasn't allowed to go to parties." I say in a defensive tone that I wasn't planning on having.
"Well then let me, Carmilla Karnstein, be the one to take you to your first party." She says with a smile and I can't help but feel jealous at her perfect teeth.
"I would like that very much."
What am I accepting an invitation to a ball? Why'd I say that so weird? Ugh Laura…
"Well good, it starts at 8:0, but I think getting there at 8 would make it less awkward for you."
"Why?"
Is she trying to make this less terrifying for me?
"No one will be drunk yet so you can get comfortable with the surroundings before it gets… messy." She smirks at the last word.
"Does that mean you'll be getting drunk too?" I ask, suddenly overcome with the thought of drunk Carmilla whispering in my ear and touching me.
Maybe that wouldn't be too bad.
"I don't get drunk; I stay mostly sober. What about you? Drunken Laura would be an interesting display." She says with a laugh.
"I've never drank before so I hope I don't get drunk."
"Not even a sip of wine?" She asks with an eyebrow raised.
"Nope, my dad rarely drank but if he did it would be one beer, and I would never be allowed to have any."
"well I'll keep you safe at the party, and whenever you want to leave it, we can." She says she turns away from me.
Is she blushing?
"Well, I will probably need your help getting ready for this, because I'm not sure what to wear." This causes her to turn with a wicked grin on her face.
"Well cutie, shall we get started? The party starts in a few hours and we both have to get ready." She says with a very excited smile.
She's just being nice Laura
She's just going to be a friend
A very flirty, cute, seductive friend
Who I might just have a crush on…
Welp
