I slam the trunk to my car, and wipe my forehead. I've been moving for the past few hours. This was finally my last box. It was my freshman year at USC. A dream come true of mine. I was so excited to jump right into the college life. Back at home, wasn't the best. My parents were divorcing and we were losing our home. Senior year of high school was very hard for me. But I made it through and I made it into USC! This school was my last hope to the life I've always dreamed of. I was a dancer, and I had danced my whole life. I've always loved school, and was always ahead of my grade. And that's how I got into USC with a full scholarship. That moment I got the letter, I truly felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
I walk into my dorm with my last box, and was struggling to open the door. I'm a very small girl, carrying a box, and I couldn't get my ID out to open the door. I hear someone walking up behind me and I turn around.
"Need a little help?" he says. I look up at this very tall guy. He has dreads, and a pretty cute face. But I wasn't paying attention to that at the moment. I was just hoping to get inside so I can put the heavy box down.
"Yes please" I say and he unlocks the door. He holds it open for me and I slide past him, and turn around to thank him
"Thank you" I say, smiling.
"Anytime" he says and walks away. I was hoping to get his name, but I'm guessing he lived in the dorm, so I'd probably see him around. I go in the elevator to the 5th floor, which was where my room was, which also happened to be the top floor, so I was happy I got it. While moving my boxes, my roommate wasn't there yet. When I walked into my room, there is a girl standing in there.
"Woah you scared me!" I say
"I'm so sorry! Are you Leilani" she asks
"Yeah" I say "And may I ask your name?"
"I'm Ava Porter , your roommate!" she says, walking up to me to shake my hand
"Oh yeah! I remember seeing an email about the dorm with your name on it. Nice to meet you" I say, and shake her hand
"So how are you enjoying the campus?" she asks
"It's beautiful. I'm in love already" I say
"Yeah just wait until the workload comes in. We'll probably be wishing we were back home" she says laughing
"Yeah, I think I'd rather stay her, to be honest. There's a lot going on at home.." I say looking down
"Oh i'm so sorry. You can tell me another time if you want. But for now, during breaks, my family is your family!" she says hugging me
"Thank you. It means a lot" I say
"So what are you planning on doing here? Sports? Clubs?" I say
"I'm going to join the dance team. Well at least try out and hope I make it in. I've danced my whole life" I say
"I'm sure you will make it! I'm a cheerleader, so we're pretty similar. I think we're already did to a good start!" she says and we both laugh and smile
"Hey there's a party tonight that I'm going to. It's going to be at a frat house. Do you wanna join me?" I say
"I don't know, I have a lot of unpacking to do..." I say
"You know what? Why did I even ask? You are DEFINITELY going to come with me to the party. Now pick a cute outfit and we'll be heading out in a few hours" she says
"Well if you insist" I say, and I get all my clothes and makeup out to get ready.
