I tapped the x and y buttons on the Xbox controller. I had almost killed Dylan (the cute boy with black quiffed hair, and chocolatey brown eyes)
"How are you doing this?!" He yells, and jiggles the joysticks and mashes random buttons.
"Hey, whats that supposed to mean?" I say and make my character point her gun and pull a fantastic fatality. I put the controller down and grin at my opponent in victory. He throws down his contoller in anger, "Girls aren't supposed to be good at video games." He grunts and runs his hands through his hair, making the gelled locks stand on end. Kyle (the blonde boy who admitted to stealing my underwear) high-fived me happily. "Im so glad you beat him. Whenever he wins, he rubs it in our faces for days." He grinned at me, showing a pair of adorable dimples. Jonathan (The boy with the stubble, who has only spoken once, and that was when I first got here) yawns and stretches, making his shirt come up, showing a very defined v-line and a happy-trail leading from his belly button to the waist band of his jeans. Im surrounded by attractive men, in their masculine testosterone party.

I popped a TV dinner into the microwave and waited for 2 minutes for it to ding. I took it out and travled the short distance to the table and began eating, with 4 hungry boys staring at me enviously. "How come you get to eat and we don't?" Kyle cries. His dirty blonde hair wet with sweat from his dare to do 70 pushups.
"Because I live here and you dont." I say, shoveling potatoes into my mouth. "Not for long..." Alec mumbles. I felt my throat catch. "Hey... um- us guys are gonna head to our dorms, we'll see you later Alec. And see you... sometime, Angela." Dylan says standing up and clapping Alec on the back. Kyle waddles to me smiling, and I think I might detect a faint blush. "I will definitely be seeing you again. Y'know, I was reading the book of numbers the other day, and I realized that I dont have yours." He says and hands me a napkin and a pen. I look at him scrutinizingly and take the napkin and pen. I scribble my number quickly across it, and hand it back. I shove food into my mouth so that I cant talk and ill have an excuse not to. "Thanks, babe. Ill text you." He says and follows Jonathan and Dylan out the door. Alec's jaw seemed to locked itself into a threatening position, making him look intimidating, as he took slow, menacing steps towards me. "Wh-what are you doing?" I ask slipping down from the stool slightly. He doesnt answer and keeps stalking towards me. My TV dinner stays on the table as I back away and bump into the counter. "S-s-stop it. Go away." I say. He still doesnt answer and is almost to me, the only think keeping us apart is the table. He side steps it and is now mere inches from me. I feel his breath on my face, and his scent fills my nose. He smells like a kind of spicy vanilla. His deep blue eyes look into mine, and i freeze for a second. "A-Alec stop." I say and try to push him away. He grabs my hands quickly and pushes them back down to my sides. He leans towards me, towering my petite fugure. My breath catches. Suddenly I heard a deep inhale. "Did you just smell my hair?" I ask pushing him away. "Yeah." He says smiling. "But, I was also trying to scare you. I think it worked."
"You think? I thought you were about to freaking kill me." I say breathing in deeply. "Your hair smells just like your shampoo."
"Well duh. I wonder why?" I say.
"I like your shampoo."
"Shut up and go to bed."
"You dont tell me what to do."
"I do and you just dont realise it yet."
He smirks,"Darling, if you bossed me around, I think I'd know." He say winking and licks his lips.
I shove him again, and go to my bedroom to find that my phone has 7 new text messages from a new number.
Hey
This is Kyle
You know, the sexy beast you high-fived earlier?
Dont worry, I havent forgot about you
I would never be able to with that beautiful body of yours
Your face is quite beautiful too, if I do say so myself
You there?

I lay down my phone and lie on my bed. Sleep comes easily.

Today is the day of the homecoming party. I grin as the fact that Ill be seeing Trevor today. Im ready for this. The first social event since I got here, time to get up on the popularity scale. I get ready by curling my hair with my curling wand and then brush out the curls, giving me beach theme waves. I put on my favorite light pink crop top and ripped light blue skinny jeans. I examine myself in the mirror, perfecting all the minor details. "Alright. Im done." I say to myself. I come out of the bathroom to see Alec in the living room without a shirt, doing pushups. Oh my god, my ovaries exploded.
"What are you doing?"
"What does it look like?" He says with strain in his voice. "Alright. Why?"
"Because. Tonights a party, and the ladies love muscular football players showing up being a little sweaty after a work out."
Well hes got that down to a science.
"How would you know what girls like?"
"Because girls like me."
I gave up, and went on to the part, where Kyle and Trevor waited for me
