building, but it seemed like he couldn’t wait to get out of here.” Hailey said.
“Maybe he doesn’t want to crowd me since we just got here. Besides, we were in the car for the last five hours.”
“If you say so.” She turned around and started to unpack some of the boxes. I grabbed one and started doing the same thing.
We stayed up until three in the morning and then finally passed out. I had plans of getting up early and finishing up, but I didn’t wake up until I heard my phone ringing.
“Kenzie, what the fuck? I told you to call me when you got there.” Mason yelled into the phone.
I let out a huge groan. “Good God, Mason, calm down. I’m fine. We got in late, started unpacking and then fell asleep.”
“It’s one in the fucking afternoon. Where is Hailey? Is she with you?”
“Yeah, she’s sleeping; we were up till three this morning. Would you relax? If you were so worried, you could have called Hunter. He would have told you we made it.”
“I did talk to him, but I told you to call me. Hunter isn’t living with you. He doesn’t know what you are doing any more than I do.”
“Seriously, if you don’t knock it off, I’m hanging up on you. You are worse than Mom and Dad. Dominic is in the same building, so if anything happens to me, he is right here to help.”
“Fine, whatever.” Then he hung up on me. I dropped my head back on my pillow. A few seconds later, I heard Hailey’s phone beep. I figured it was Mason chewing her ass out for not calling too.
I sent a text to Dominic, and asked if he would take me out to breakfast and show me around campus. He texted back, saying he was busy helping his roommate this afternoon but he would take me out for dinner.
I didn’t know what to do with myself since Dominic had made other plans. I got up and headed to the bathroom to take a long hot shower. I stood, letting the water pour over my head, hoping that my coming here was not going to be a mistake. I was only here one day and Dominic was already blowing me off. I would not have cared as much if I knew my way around campus. I wasn’t expecting Dominic to be by my side twenty-four hours a day. Football practice took up a lot of his time, but it would have been nice if he could have set aside my first day here to spend with me.
A knock on the door interrupted me from my thoughts. “Door is unlocked, Hails.” I pulled back the shower curtain and peeked my head out.
I let out a squeak, surprised to see that it was Hunter, not Hailey, who had come in.
“Hey, what are you doing in here?” I jerked the curtain closed, feeling slightly uncomfortable that the only thing keeping Hunter from seeing me naked was a shower curtain.
I heard the toilet seat shut. “I came to see if you wanted to go grab some lunch. I could show you around campus a little bit.” He cleared his throat. “Hailey said that Dominic split right after I left. If I had known, I’d have come back over.”
I rinsed the soap out of my hair. “Yeah, he left, but it’s okay. Hails and I unpacked some of our stuff and then we slept in. Dominic is busy right now, but he’s going to take me out to dinner.” Shutting off the water, I reached my hand out and grabbed my towel. “Can you give me ten minutes?”
“You don’t have to hide from me CC; it’s not like I’ve never seen you.” I blushed, remembering the time at home when I had just opened the shower curtain to step out at the exact same time that Hunter came barging into the bathroom.
I wrapped myself in the towel, pulled the shower curtain back and glared at him.
Hunter stood, and put both of his hands up. “Okay, okay, I’m going.” He turned, and strolled out of the room, laughing.
After Hailey and I were ready, Hunter took us out to lunch, and showed us around town before my dinner date with Dominic. Hunter dropped us off when Dominic came to collect me for dinner, and then on to a movie back in his room.
Dominic took me to The Raven. He said they had great food, and he was right. We both ate
