Elijah

I left the library the an Technically, I was supposed to be studying for a test, not to nan, supposedly, had souy out there because he liked to prank me a lot, he was still one of my best friends, and he knehen not to joke with me

Because of course, I returned every prank twice as hard He’d come to learn not to mess with me

Fuck, I was invincible when it ca!

I e was pretty relaxed when it caes I’d heard of At least, that was the consensus, since they allowed coed dore of this fact My friend Logan was one of theht of fun

So it wasn’t a surprise when he’d texted me to come to the dorm house a block away from the one we lived in Usually, he just told hts, so I was curious what he’d called me out for

Logan hooking me up was one of his worse pranks He would set me up with the opposite of what I liked in wo situations Sothe center of them all!

I walked into the dor around the coan was nowhere to be found, and I wasn’t about to start knocking on doors to find him I took my cell out and made a call

“Seriously Logan, where you at? I was studying, you know”

He laughed “Dude, who you trying to kid? Studying Please You’re here, aren’t you? Thatme”

I rolledto trick ain…”

Logan laughed again, though there was an edge of nervousness in it I hadn't forgotten the last prank, and I’d yet to get hiet back in races It was part of the reason I even showed up, knowing he could still try so stupid

“I’m up in Dana’s dorm, on the third floor”

Dana was a girl Logan fooled around with, at least one of the latest Lately, she was all he’d been talking about, so I didn’t think he was seeing anyone else For now, but knowing hi another girl

Sometimes, I envied how carefree he could be When it all backfired on hih my ass off

I headed up the stairs and started the jog up I got to the room and held my hand up to knock because I didn’t want to walk into anything When I re that made me pause

Shit

I called Logan back When he answered, I spoke before he had the chance to

“Is Sophia in there? I alot that they’re roommates”

Sophia was studying the saether There wasn’t anything wrong with Sophia I could even ad, which hy I tended to avoid her like the plague

“Don’t worry,” he said dismissively

“Of course she’s not here Why on earth would I call you if she was? Would you hurry and get in already? I left the door unlocked”

He hung up, and I glared at the cell, before sighing and putting it back inup on me I reached for the doorknob and opened The room wasn’t so different from mine, fairly spacious with a couple of desks, dressers, and beds pushed to opposite sides of the roo on her back and Logan propping himself up on his elbow above her as they kissed
