Author's Note: This is the second chapter. Some time has passed since the first chapter but school hasn't started yet. These chapters are longer than they were in the prequal. I don't know why. This chapter takes place in one day too.
I don't own digimon or the characters I used from it.
CHAPTER 2 - Moving In and Freaking Out
"There, all done. It's about time." Matt layed down on his bed. He finally unpacked all of his things that he brought back home over winter break. His side of the dorm looked just like it did before the holidays.
"I'm done too." Tai joined his boyfriend on his bed and started kissing him.
"Why are you so horny, Tai?"
"I'm an eighteen-year-old guy with a hot boyfriend. Give me a break."
Matt laughed. "I guess I can cut you some slack." Matt kissed Tai again. Suddenly, Tai heard his phone ring. His expression became frustrated.
"Who the hell is calling me when I am in bed with my boyfriend? Oh, it's Izzy. I guess I should answer." Tai answered his cell phone and talked to Izzy for a couple of minutes. He then shut the phone.
"What was that about?"
"Izzy wants our help setting everything up in his and Clair's apartment."
"More unpacking? How lovely."
Mimi picked up her cell phone and dialed Sora's number. It rung for awhile and then Sora answered. "Hey, Mimi."
"Hey, Sora. I am moving in in about two hours. I was wondering if you and your roommate could help me."
"Uh…I guess we can. We both moved back in so we are little tired."
"Thanks, Sora. You are too kind for helping me."
"Don't mention it."
"Thanks again. I have to get a pedicure right now but I will be there soon."
Sora rolled her eyes. "Okay, see you then."
"Bye." Mimi hung up the phone and Sora collapsed onto her bed. Gwen walked over to her.
"What's wrong?"
"I think I just volunteered us to unpack even more stuff."
"What!"
"I'm sorry, Gwen."
Gwen went to her bed and picked up her pillow. She threw it at Sora's head and laughed. "You better be sorry."
Izzy and Clair sweated as they carried boxes of their things into the campus apartment. Tai and Matt walked in holding hands. "Hey Mr. and Mrs. Izumi."
"We aren't married yet, Tai."
"I know, Izzy. You will be soon though. How are you, Clair? I haven't seen you since New Year's."
"I'm good, Tai. Thank you for asking. How are you two?"
"We're good." Tai pulled his boyfriend closer to him and hugged him. "We are here to help you two."
"Well, we were actually going to take a break for a little bit."
"I like that plan even better!"
Clair laughed. "I do too. We are exhausted." The four of them went to a café next door to get some coffee. They talked about their winter breaks. Matt decided to turn the conversation to a more relevant topic.
"Izzy, did Sora tell you who Mimi is going to be rooming with?"
"No, she didn't."
"Veronica."
Izzy looked shocked and then sympathetic towards Mimi. Clair started feeling depressed as she thought of her former best friend. Izzy comforted his fiancé. "It's okay, Clair. Hopefully Veronica won't treat Mimi as roughly as she treated you."
"I hope not. Who is Mimi anyway?"
"She is a girl that Matt, Tai, Sora, and I have known since we were children. She moved to America when we were in high school to pursue a modeling career but now she is back in Japan. She transferred to out school and is now apparently taking your old dorm."
Tai looked at Clair's sad expression. "Has Veronica never tried to patch things up between you two?"
"No, she hasn't. I didn't even know she was dating Gwen's cousin, Bryan, until I saw them in the restaurant during me and Izzy's engagement dinner. She is too much drama anyways so I shouldn't be so upset to not have her anymore but she was my best friend. It is so hard to lose your best friend, you know?" Izzy put his hand on her shoulder to comfort her. "Thanks, Izzy. You'll never just shut me out like that, will you?"
"Never, Clair. I love you too much to ever do that to you." She smiled and Izzy kissed her on her lips.
"Mimi, how many damn hair products did you bring?"
"Sorry, Sora. I know it is a lot but years of modeling have really made me concerned with my appearance. I have to keep my strawberry blonde hair looking perfect."
Gwen admired Mimi's hair. "You're hair is beautiful, Mimi. Is that your natural color?"
"No, I am naturally a brunette. I like to change up my hair colors and styles." Mimi twirled her hair. It was shoulder length and slightly wavy. She watched herself play with her hair in the mirror.
Sora saw her and groaned. "You know Mimi, Gwen and I could use your help since these are your things. Stop playing with your hair already. We get it, it's pretty."
"Oh, sorry you two. Let me help you." Mimi started unpacking her things as well. Within an hour, they finished unloading all of her things. It was obvious which side of the room was Mimi's. Most of her things were pink. Sora was used to Mimi's obsession with pink but Gwen raised an eyebrow to it.
"Hey Mimi, do you like pink?"
"Why yes I do Gwen, thank you for noticing."
Gwen looked at Sora confused. "Sorry Gwen, Mimi isn't the greatest at identifying sarcasm."
"Oh. Well, Mimi, I asked that because almost you're entire room is pink."
"I know what sarcasm is. I just don't notice it sometimes. Unlike Sora, you seem to be a girly-girl. Do you like pink as well?"
"I am more of a purple kind of girl myself."
Mimi looked disappointed that she didn't have someone to share her love with. "Oh, that's too bad." She sat on her newly made bed. "So, Gwen, I have only known you for a couple of hours. Tell me about yourself."
"Well let's see…I am eighteen years old. I am a Fashion Merchandising major. As you said, I am a feminine woman. I am not a tomboy at all. I love watching fashion reality shows. I have a pet cat at home named Missy. I have a little bit of psychic ability. I am bisexual and single. I made out with you're friend, Sora, last semester but haven't dated since my ex-girlfriend broke my heart in high school by cheating on me. I dated a lot of guys before that who all walked all over me. I love shopping and want to design my own line one day. Sora tells me that you used to model in New York. Maybe you will come out of retirement to model my designs."
Mimi smiled. "Thank you but I most likely won't return to modeling. I love shopping as well! I love fashion reality shows as well. When I lived in New York, I watched America's Next Top Model and Project Runway everyday. I watch Japan's Next Top Model when I am here though. It is almost as good but Tyra Banks is good entertainment." Mimi laughed but Sora didn't know who Tyra Banks was and Gwen only knew her from her modeling days. Mimi cleared her throat and continued. "Well, you know I have to ask about it." She turned to Sora. "You made out with a girl?"
Sora's face turned a little red. "Well…uh…yeah."
"Sora, you made out with a girl! Oh my God! That isn't something good girls like you do, you know."
"I was upset and I was caught up in the moment!"
"Was it a good kiss?"
"It kind of was, actually. Gwen was probably the best kiss I ever had."
"Are you bisexual?"
"No, I'm not. I thought that I might be for awhile but I realized that I could never date a girl. I'm completely straight."
"Don't knock dating girls, Sora. I dated one in America."
Sora's eyes bugged out of her head. "When?"
"About a year ago. She was a model at my agency. She was French and ser name was Satine. She was beautiful. I had never even thought about dating a girl before her. I had made out with tons of girls for fun at parties but Satine was the only girl I enjoyed myself with. I haven't been attracted to a girl since either. I prefer men."
Gwen got excited that Sora's beautiful childhood friend had dated a girl before. "Mimi, are you bisexual then?"
"I guess you could say that. I am not big on labels. I don't really refer to myself as bisexual because I am almost always drawn to guys. I am rarely attracted to women. Do you like men and women equally?"
"No, I prefer women to men. I think I am through with guys permanently actually after all the jerks I dated."
"Guys aren't always so bad. I don't know if I could go without men. I would miss the sex too much."
Sora shook her head. "Mimi, when did you become so promiscuous? Not just in your actions, but in your wardrobe too. You were such an innocent girl when you lived here with your long dresses and your cowboy hat. Now you are wearing a mini skirt in January and your sweater couldn't be any tighter. New York has changed you."
Mimi looked down. "I know it has. I am a reformed party girl, Sora. I can't go back to old Mimi overnight. I am so used to partying all the time and hooking up with guys I meet at the clubs. I am used to being hung-over in the mornings and high on the weekends. I am used to barely eating or sleeping. I am used to all these negative things and it is hard to go back to being responsible. My parents gave me an ultimatum, either I quit modeling and move back to Japan or check myself into rehab and therapy to get myself back on track. The choice was fairly obvious since I despise the thought of being treated like some druggie."
Sora and Gwen walked over to Mimi and sat next to her on her bed. Sora looked into Mimi's eyes and saw that the sweet girl she knew as a kid was almost dead. Mimi had been through so much in the past couple of years due to her fame she had achieved in America. "It's okay, Mimi. You'll be living a normal life here just like you used to. You will be going to school, hanging out with your friends, and going to the mall. It will be like old times. You know so many people here already and you just moved in. You already have Gwen and I as your friends." Mimi looked over at Gwen and Gwen smiled at her. Mimi smiled back realizing that she had made a close fiend already. "You are friends with Tai and Matt. They only live next-door. You know Izzy here and you will have to meet his fiancé ASAP. She is the sweetest girl. There is also the unlikely possibility that you will be friends with your roommate."
Mimi looked up at Sora. "Is Veronica really that bad?"
Gwen answered before Sora could open her mouth. "Hell yeah! That girl has gone off the deep end. She is dating my cousin. That shows you how insane she is. He has become the biggest asshole on the planet. She became even worse once she became his girlfriend."
"I can probably deal with her. I am used to spending times with models. If I can handle a handful of divas, I can handle one bitch."
Mimi sat alone in her dorm brushing her hair. It was already perfect but she enjoyed grooming herself. Appearance was very important to her. She heard her door open and thought it was Gwen or Sora coming in to check on her. She turned around and saw a girl with light-brown, curly hair. She was glaring at Mimi and Mimi knew who it must be. She sat her hairbrush down and got up. "Hi, you must be Veronica. I'm Mimi, your new roommate." Mimi politely held her hand out for Veronica to shake but Veronica ignored it and walked to her side of the room.
"I don't really care who you are. From just your appearance, I can tell that you are an annoying, materialistic, bitchy girl with a negative IQ."
Mimi glared back at her. She had dealt with caddy girls for years and learned that you can't let people walk all over you if you want respect. "If anyone is a bitchy girl, it's you. You could have at least shaken my hand. That would have been the civil thing to do. I may be a tad materialistic but you have no right to judge me on that based on five whole seconds of observation. You don't even know me! My friends were so right about you."
"You have been here less than a day and you already have friends?"
"Yes, there are a lot of people here that I have known since I was a child. I have met new friends as well. I am talking mainly about my friends, Sora and Gwen, who live down the hall. They told me you had turned into an angry loner and I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt. I truly did but your instant judgment of me ruined that. How can you sum up who I am without even getting to know me?"
"I can do whatever I want. It's none of your business. Also, you're 'friends', as you called them, are the two biggest bitches on the planet. I used to be friends with the two of them, so I would know. If they let you think that they have your back, they are just lying. They couldn't care less about you just like they couldn't about me."
"They probably did care about you. I heard you were the one who shut them out."
"If you got the story from them, of course they are going to say that. It makes them look good that way."
"I have known Sora almost my entire life and she is one of the most loving and thoughtful people I have ever come into contact with. Her roommate seems equally as kind. You are just bitter that you have no friends!" Mimi knew she destroyed any chance of having a relationship with Veronica as soon as she said that. Mimi had tried to be nice to her but Veronica brought an attitude with her through the door. Mimi couldn't stand rude people like Veronica, so she wasn't going to let Veronica get away with being disrespectful towards her.
Veronica looked at Mimi as if she were trying to kill her with her mind. "How do you know if I have friends or not? You don't know anything about me either! You have known me all of two minutes."
"Well, you knew me five seconds before you made accusations about me."
"That is because it is easy to figure you out. Look at you. You have a miniskirt so short that you can probably see your panties when you bend over. It is freezing outside, by the way. Just in case you didn't get the memo, it's January. Your pink sweater is so tight that it suctions in your rail-thin frame. You look like you have an eating disorder. Your hair is most-likely not natural. You have more makeup on than a drag queen and you are wearing high-heals on during move-in day. Are you joking? You are easier to figure out than a puzzle with two pieces. You're basically a partying slut who things she is the queen of the world."
Mimi stormed across the dorm and slapped Veronica across the face. "Yeah, well I here that you are a psychotic bitch that is alone in the world except for her douchbag boyfriend!"
"Leave Bryan the fuck out of this!"
"I'll talk about him if I want to. Apparently I think I am the queen of the world, you know."
"Whatever, I just came in here to get my purse." Veronica walked over to her desk to get it and then headed for the door. "Try to reduce the smell of that rancid perfume you have on while I am gone. Do you think you can manage that by yourself or do you need your butler to do it for you?" Mimi couldn't form a comeback fast enough because Veronica headed out the door. She knew that it was now her mission to bring Veronica down.
Veronica waited for her named to be called so she could see her doctor. The argument she had just had with her new roommate filled her thoughts almost as much as her pregnancy test results. The door she continued to stare at opened and a nurse walked out. "Veronica?" She got up and walked towards the nurse and into the hallway of the doctor's office. She followed the nurse into a room and answered the nurse's general questions and gave a blood sample. She was then left alone to wait for her doctor to see her. She waited for what seemed like hours until she heard the door open.
"Veronica?"
"Yes?"
"Hello, how are you today? I'm Doctor Kido. I'll be serving as you OBGYN today."
"Hi."
"So I understand you have taken a multitude of at-home pregnancy tests."
"Yes, all of which were positive."
"Well, we have finished looking at the blood sample you provided. Would you like to know for sure if you are or not?" Veronica nodded and the doctor opened his mouth to continue. "Veronica, you are indeed pregnant." Veronica looked heartbroken and silently nodded again. "I take it this isn't the news you wanted to here?"
"Well, I am extraordinarily late with my period and I took countless pregnancy tests. I can't say that I'm shocked. It's just…I am only eighteen years old. I can't be a mother. I can barely take care of myself, yet alone another human being."
"Believe me, eighteen-year-olds are the youngest crowd in my office these days. I just informed a fourteen-year-old that she was pregnant earlier today. Don't beat yourself up. Things happen sometimes and you can't plan out your life."
"I know, it's just hard to comprehend."
"I understand how you must feel. I have a son named Joe who is nineteen. I couldn't see him as a parent either. His older brother, Jim, just had a baby girl last month and I can barely handle it. Not only is he a father, but I am a grandfather. Life moves too fast sometimes."
"I don't want to be a mother."
"Well, you are in your first trimester, so your options are open. There is adoption if you want to proceed with the pregnancy and termination if you do not."
"Termination? Like an abortion?"
"Exactly."
Veronica's brain shut down for a second. She never thought that she would get an abortion. She loved babies and hated when women prevented life from being brought into the world. She knew she didn't want to be a mother but she wasn't sure if she could continue her pregnancy. "I don't know if I want to do adoption or abortion."
"Well, there is a big difference. One option has you fulfilling your nine months of pregnancy and one has you ending things as soon as possible."
"I…um…"
"Maybe you should talk to the father first before you make a decision."
"I guess so. He doesn't know that I may be pregnant."
"I suggest talking to him. If you want to proceed with terminating the pregnancy, call us and schedule an appointment. The longer you wait, the more difficult this decision will be. I can guarantee you that. I wouldn't hesitate talking to the father."
"Okay, I will tell him later today. Thank you for time."
"I tell you, that bitch has it coming!"
Sora made Mimi sit down. "Calm down, Mimi. We all know she is a lot to deal with but please don't get caught up in your anger. You don't want to do something you regret."
"Sora, I have to do something to knock her off her pedestal. I don't know what and I don't know when, but I will."
"I believe you, Mimi." Sora gave Mimi a hug to calm her friend down. Gwen watched the two of them from her bed. She was upset that Veronica was hurting yet another person. She knew that if anyone could take someone like Veronica down, it was Mimi. She could see the determination in her eyes. Sora's phone vibrated. "I got a text from Tai. He said for us three to come over to Izzy and Clair's apartment."
The girls knocked on the apartment door. Izzy opened it. "Hey guys!" He told them to come in and they were shocked at the apartment. In one day, everything was completely assembled. All the furniture was arranged and all the boxes that their things were brought in were gone. The three girls were amazed that they were able to do everything so fast. "Um…girls?" The three girls turned their attention back to Izzy. "Mimi, there is somebody I want you to meet. This is my fiancé, Clair." Izzy put his arm around the blonde girl standing next to him.
Clair walked forward some towards Mimi and held out her hand. "It's nice to meet you. Izzy has told me so much about you."
Mimi shook Clair's hand. "It's nice to meet you as well. I have heard a lot about you too. Izzy emailed me a picture of the two of you on Christmas. I think that you make an adorable couple. Izzy seems like a very lucky boy."
"Thank you, Mimi." Clair smiled widely at how friendly Mimi was being. "So, I hear you are living in my old room. How is Veronica doing?" Mimi's expression dropped. Sora stepped forward.
"Wow, this apartment is beautiful." Clair knew that meant that Veronica was behaving the same and Mimi was too upset to discuss it. She decided to play along with Sora's non-subtle attempt to change the topic away from Veronica.
"Thank you, Sora. It took a long time to fix. Luckily, I had three guys to help me." Clair motioned toward her fiancé and then to Tai and Matt who were lying on the couch exhausted.
"Oh my God, I didn't even see them there." Everyone walked over to the two boys. "Are you two sleeping?"
Tai opened his eyes. "No, we are just tired. We moved ourselves in today too, you know. Besides, I am the strongest one here, so I did most of the heavy lifting."
Gwen giggled. "Way to be modest, Tai."
"Thanks, I try. Clair is a petite girl and Izzy isn't the most athletic guy. Then of course, there is my Yama." Matt opened his eyes and looked up at his boyfriend. "He isn't very strong either but that is okay. He is too beautiful to be strong as well." Matt smiled and wrapped his arm around his boyfriend.
Mimi, who wasn't used to Tai's affection for Matt, looked slightly confused. "What happened to Matt's tough, rocker image he had going on in high school?"
"It faded once he became my boyfriend. He still has it when he is on stage but when he comes back to me, he turns so feminine. It's the cutest thing in the world. I love it so much." Tai moved his head towards Matt and kissed him on the forehead like a baby. All the girls remarked how cute they were. Mimi ran over to them and gave the two of them a hug.
"You two are so cute together! Don't ever break up!"
Matt kissed his boyfriend. "We won't, Mimi. We are soul mates. It is impossible for us to break up."
Mimi hugged them again. "Oh, I just adore gay men. With all those caddy bitches in the modeling world, the gay guys were the only people I could tolerate at all those fashion events. They would always tell me how ravishing I looked and how I could turn them straight. My hair stylist was so adorable and him and his boyfriend got engaged when I was there. I told them I would fly back for the wedding. I must email them when I get back to the dorm to tell them I miss them here in Japan."
Matt rolled his eyes while Mimi went on her rant. "Uh, Mimi?"
"Yes?"
"You are digressing quite a bit. You are going on about your former hair stylist."
"Oh, sorry about that, Matt. I have a tendency to do that. The point is that you and Tai make an amazing couple and I hope you two stick together."
"Well thank you for your support."
"Anytime." She smiled and sat down on the couch with them. The two boys sat up and Sora, Gwen, Clair, and Izzy joined them in the living room sitting area. The friends chatted for hours until it started to get late. It was winter so it got dark early. The friends didn't want to walk home in the dark so they decided to leave. They all thanked Izzy and Clair for inviting them over and Izzy and Clair thanked Tai and Matt for their help. The five friends left the engaged couple in their new apartment.
Izzy turned towards his new fiancé and kissed her. "Can you believe we have our own apartment together? I know it is owned by campus, but still, doesn't it seem unreal."
"It truly does, Izzy. I can't believe it either. We only started dating a couple months ago and now we are engaged and living together."
"We are living in separate bedrooms though."
"I promise that will change after the wedding."
"Do you know when you want the wedding to be yet?"
"Yes, I want it to be in March."
"Why March?"
"My mother's family descends from Ireland and I thought we could honor that be getting married on St. Patrick's Day."
Izzy smiled. "I think that is a wonderful idea."
Clair was happy that Izzy always supported her. "I'm glad you approve. It is January now, so March is coming up soon. I am glad we want an intimate wedding, because an extravagant wedding takes too long to plan. We could never do it in time."
"We should still get planning as soon as possible."
"Let's start now then."
"Anything you say." He kissed Clair on the lips again. She smiled at her fiancé and hugged him. The two of them got their laptops out and buried themselves in them doing research. They were truly made for each other.
Veronica knocked on Bryan's apartment door. He answered after four knocks and invited her in. "Hey, V. My roommates are still with their families. They aren't coming back here until tomorrow so we have the whole place to ourselves." He pulled her into his arms and started kissing her. She decided to keep him in a good mood by kissing him back for awhile. Once they came up for air, she knew she had to tell him.
"Bryan, there is something I need to tell you."
"Well, let's sit down and talk then." He led her to the couch and the two of them sat. He looked at her with his dark, brown eyes so she knew to continue.
"I went to the doctor's office today."
"Is everything okay?"
"Well…yes…no…I don't know. It depends on how you look at it." Bryan looked at her with a perplexed look. "Bryan, I'm pregnant."
"What?"
"I'm pregnant. I'm pregnant with your child."
"Are you sure?"
"About being pregnant or that it is your child?"
"Both."
"I am positive about both. I have only had sex with you so that makes you the only possible father."
"Veronica, what the fuck? I am still in college and so are you. We can't raise a damn baby. It would have the most fucked-up childhood between the two of us."
"I know. We are too young to raise a child. I don't know what I want to do, though."
"Get rid of it."
"Bryan, it's a human, not a sweater. I can't just get rid of it if I don't like it just like that."
"Yes, you can."
"I think I want to have it and give it up for adoption."
"No!"
"I thought you didn't want to keep it either."
"I don't want some fat, pregnant woman as my girlfriend. Then everyone will know I got you knocked up and I will have to tell everyone that we aren't keeping it. I will have to stand with you for months of morning sickness and mood swings. You are going to gain so much weight and you won't get your figure back. You will look horrible."
Veronica felt her anger rising. "Well, thank you for your support. You know, you don't have to be such an ass considering it is your child."
"I don't know that it is mine."
"It is yours!"
"How do I know that you aren't some slut, fucking every guy you come into contact with?"
Veronica slapped Bryan across the face and stood up. "I am not a slut! This is your baby and I will do what I want with it!"
Bryan stood up and hovered over her. "Not if I have anything to say about it! I don't want to date some moody, fat bitch that is about to pop out a baby."
"Then don't date me!"
"I won't until you get rid of that thing!"
"I don't want to get an abortion!"
"Well, you are going to. Call the doctor and get an abortion or I will beat the fetus right out of you."
Veronica's eyes opened widely. She knew he was serious. He really would find a way to do it. "Why do you want me to terminate my pregnancy so bad?"
"I don't want everyone to know that I knocked some girl up. I have a reputation to uphold, you know. I have earned respect over the past years and I want to keep it. If you give the baby up for adoption, I will look like an unfit father who avoids his responsibility. I don't want anyone to know that you are pregnant. Does anyone know except for me?"
"No."
"Good. Call the doctor and schedule an abortion as soon as possible."
Veronica stood there looking at him. She didn't know what to do. She was afraid of Bryan right now. She had never been so afraid of him since the time he date-raped her. His eyes were piecing into her brain and she could feel herself being manipulated again. He had so much control over her and she was terrified to defy him. She took out her cell phone and the business card of the clinic she was at earlier that day. "Hello, I would like to schedule an appointment with Dr. Kido for an abortion." Tears rolled down her cheeks.
Mimi, Sora, Gwen, Tai, and Matt walked back across campus towards their residence halls. Tai reached into pocket and took out his cell phone. "I just got a text from a guy on my soccer team. He said he is having a party before classes start back up tomorrow. I guess it must have been a last minute thing. It already started. I think I am going to go. Do you want to come, Yama?"
"Really Tai?"
"Of course."
"Okay, yeah, I'll come. Wow. You have come so far. I remember when you cared so much what your soccer team would think if they found out that you had a boyfriend and now you are inviting me to go to a party with all of your soccer buddies. I'm so proud of you." Matt kissed Tai on the cheek.
"Thanks, Yama. That means a lot to me. What about you girls? Are you in?" The girls politely declined Tai's offer and continued back to their hall while Tai and Matt headed towards the party. The girls kept walking until they saw a girl walking towards them.
"Gwen? Gwen!"
Sora looked at her roommate. "Do you know her?"
"Oh my God. That's my ex-girlfriend I told you about. I was in love with her until she cheated on me. Her name is Rosemary but everyone usually just calls her Rose."
Rose approached them. Sora and Mimi stared her down after discovering that this was the girl who broke Gwen's heart. Rosemary noted their expressions and knew that the must know who she is. Rosemary was a fashionable girl like Gwen but she wasn't as obsessed with it as Gwen. She was biracial. Her father was white and her mother was black. She had shoulder-length, straight, black hair and dark brown eyes. Her skin complexion was light brown and she was slightly shorter than Gwen. "Gwen, I haven't talked to you in forever."
"No, not since I broke up with you after you cheated on me with that slut from the tennis team at school."
Rosemary looked down and sighed before looking back into Gwen's eyes. "I am truly sorry about that. I just caught up in the moment. I have never cheated on anyone since. I hate myself for breaking your heart."
"Well, you should. You will never know how I felt when you did that to me."
"I know. I know that I can never take it back either. I wish I could take the pain away."
Sora noted how upset Gwen was getting. "Rose, is it?"
"Um, yes. That's my name."
"Hi, I'm Sora. I'm Gwen's roommate and best friend. I think that it is maybe a good idea if you left Gwen alone. She doesn't look too happy to see you right now."
Rosemary observed the pain on Gwen's face. "Maybe you're right. I hope we can talk some time though, Gwen. I just transferred here so I hope to see you around sometime." Rosemary walked away. Mimi and Sora comforted their distraught friend.
"I'm okay, you guys. I just wasn't expected to see her." The two girls walked with their arms around Gwen as they continued to their dorms.
Tai and Matt walked onto the dance floor that was created in the apartment they were in. It was just off of campus so Tai knew it wouldn't be too unsafe to walk back afterwards. He learned from the last party so he didn't drink any punch. He was enjoying himself enough being sober. He had his boyfriend whom he loved. That was all he needed. Tai started dancing with Matt. The boys from his soccer team knew that he was gay but this was the first time they had seen him with a guy. Tai didn't seem too concerned though as he danced provocatively with Matt. Matt was slightly shocked that Tai was grinding his body onto Matt's like all the heterosexual couples were doing. Heads were turning at the sight of this. "Tai, don't you care that so many people are watching you?"
"They are just in shock that my boyfriend is so hot."
"They are in shock that you have a boyfriend."
"Well, I can't help that they are shocked."
"You seriously don't care?"
"Nope."
"Wow, you've come so far, Tai."
"Thanks, Yama."
"You aren't acting paranoid that all these people are watching us either."
"I am not even looking at them. The only thing I am looking at is you. Your beauty is too distracting for me to even notice the other people."
Matt smiled. "Thanks, Tai. You're attractiveness is distracting too."
"You want to really make them stare at us?"
"What do you have in mind?"
