In Lust With You

Netflicks and Chill

"I can't believe I'm really going through with this."

"Nina, calm down. It's not like he's asking to marry you."

Nina's P.O.V

She was right. I keep overthinking. It's a bad habit I have. This is the first time I've had pure contact with a boy ever since I got to college. I'm too much of an introvert to be friendly.

"He could be like all these other boys though, Bri. This campus is full of hoes and I am not trying to be one of them."

Bri sighs with a hand on her forehead before going back to packing her bag.

"You can't keep thinking like that, Nina. There are still some decent men left in this world. You just have to find them. That's how I got mines."

"Yes. You told me many times."

I roll my eyes sitting on the edge of my bed taking out my fidget cube to calm my nerves when a knock at the door startled me.

"Ouuu there's your future husband, girl. You want me to get it?"

"Please."

I crack a tiny smile at Bri's antics while she willingly opened the door.

"Oh shit you fine as hell. I'm Bri. Nina's roommate."

He chuckles.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Zay."

They enter our room and immediately my body froze once Zay spots me on my bed. He sticks his hand out to shake, yet I kept silent holding onto my fidget cube for support.

"You must be, Nina. Name's Zay."

"Hey."

"I love your braids. Fits you perfectly."

"Oh, thanks."

The award silence was so loud you could her a pin drop. Eventually, I calmed my nerves wondering where tonight would take us. I wanted this "date" to be over with sooner rather than later.

Bri finished packing and made her way towards the door.

"Alright you two have fun. If yall end up fuckin don't mess up my side of the room."

I glare at her making her laugh on the way out. As soon as the door closed, my attention was brought back to the floor.

"Sooo, what you wanna do, beautiful?"

Zay sits down next to me. Instantly. I scoot a few feet away.

"Relax, baby. I'm only making myself comfortable."

"I'm not your baby. And I'm sure there's plenty of other bitches you call the same thing. To answer your question, though we can just chill."

"Damn. Someone's fiesty. I like that."

Zay grins and I roll my eyes.

"I bet your ass does."

"Shoes on or off?"

"Off is fine. Same with the light."

"Cool."

We both get up and straighten up my bed before sitting together side by side. I pick up the remote putting on Netflix when I feel an arm snake around my waist. I didn't know what to do in this situation, so I let it slide this time.

I ended up settling on the original SpongeBob movie throwing the nearby plaid blanket over my legs.

"Damm, no covers for me? What happened to sharing is caring?"
