Lilith Meets College
I don't own Girl Meets World!
Lilith smiled as she stepped off the subway. She was finally, finally back in New York. It had been three long years since she stood in New York's grungy subway system. Even three years ago her parents had forbidden her from going there. Of course she snuck out anyways.
Now she was legally an adult and they had no control over her legally. In reality they ran her life like dictators. She was only back in New York because her director wanted her to have a real college experience for her next movie. She had one year to figure out how to be a normal college student. Then it was back to the hustle and bustle of the movies.
She walked up the steps and towards the NYU campus, and her new dorm. She'd gotten a room to herself thanks to her family's money. They'd hired a designer to get it ready. How it was decorated was the only thing she had control over.
It was a plain beige color with a high bed with a pale blue comforter. There was a desk next to the bed and beneath the bed a small relaxation space. There was a mini-fridge, a coffee maker, and a small TV. On the walls she had hung some old pictures of herself with Riley and Maya and the others.
Finally she dragged her feet up the last flight of stairs to her dorm building. She had visited the campus once before so she kind of knew her way around. She had still gotten a little lost.
As she found her way to the check in desk, she noticed a dark haired girl skipping along outside the window, followed by a blonde obviously rolling her eyes at her friend's antics. The two linked arms as they disappeared from Lilith's view. Lilith smiled sadly, seeing such good friends reminded her of Riley and Maya.
After she checked in and got her dorm key and lanyard she hurried up yet more stairs and found her room. On the door her name was a piece of paper, written in flowery script. She quickly opened the door and hurriedly unpacked her clothes. Most of her things had already been moved in.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Lilith turned and peered through the peephole to see the brunette and blonde she had seen earlier from the window.
She opened the door "Hi?" She gave a little smile "Can I help you?"
"Hi!" The brunette's voice was bubbly and cheerful, it reminded her of Riley's "We saw that you're a transfer student and we wanted to invite you to game/get to know you night. It's downstairs in the commons. You wanna come?"
Lilith thought about it for a minute "Sure." She decided "Just let me get ready. When is it?"
"Ten minutes." The blonde told her. She looked rebellious and tough.
"Okay. I'll see you then, I guess." Lilith shut the door and quickly hurried to do her makeup and hair. She kept her yellow dress on, it had thin straps and cutouts on the sides, it was one of her favorites.
Outside the door the brunette looked at her friend "She seemed sorta familiar, don't you think?"
"A little." The blonde shrugged "Come on, let's go set up for game night." And the two walked away.
Ten minutes later Lilith was ready and headed down to the common room. As she opened the door a bunch of balloons fell on her. Immediately her hair began to stick up everywhere.
"Oh no!" She mewled.
"It's okay!" The brunette rushed over to her "I have a brush. You wanna borrow it?"
""Sure, thanks." Lilith looked into the brown haired girl's dark eyes and gasped. She hadn't gotten a good look at her before, but now she realized just how much this girl looked like Riley.
"Is something wrong?" The brunette asked, concerned.
"No, no. You just look really familiar." Lilith tried to smile through the pain of overwhelming memories that flooded through her.
"Oh?" The blonde asked "You know, you look kinda familiar too. Have we met before?"
"I don't think so. I'm from way out of town." Lilith said "I was here for a while in high school though. Did either of you go to Abigail Addams high school?"
"Yeah!" The brunette exclaimed "My dad was a teacher there. Now he teaches here." She muttered the last part.
It couldn't possibly be Riley, Lilith thought "What does he teach?" She asked.
"History." The blonde rolled her eyes "The most boring class on campus."
"I like history." Lilith defended "It's really interesting."
"Yeah, I guess. And dad makes it relate to us. So it's not so bad." Riley told the new girl.
"I don't believe this. My old history teacher made everything about us in high school. How weird is that?" Lilith exclaimed.
More people started arriving and Lilith sat down on a couch and started chatting with some of the other people.
"Alright!" The bubbly brunette skipped up to the center of the room "Let's start game night off by going around the room and introducing ourselves. Who wants to go first?"
A boy raised his hand and introduced himself and Kaden Johnson. Then a girl introduced herself as Caitlyn Bell. And so on until it reached the blonde.
"My name's Maya. Don't look me in the eye."
Lilith jolted up.
Then the brunette spoke "I'm Riley, and I like bunnies!"
Lilith stared for a moment before standing up for her turn. She took a deep breath "Hi, my name's Lilith. Lilith Pane."
