Sabrina Foster
No that’s super sweet
Unless you still like him and you’re using this as an excuse to creep
I’m ninety-nine percent sure I don’t have a crush on him, and the one percent that remains should be manageable given that it’s one-sided as hell.
Omg no I stopped liking him ages ago
Then why’d you have to ask me?
He keeps saying no to my offer
So I thought I might be giving off bad vibes
One sec
Callum taps me on the shoulder. “I’ve received instructions.” He hands his phone over.
Laura Pierre
Stop being polite and go live with Ian
Pls
Or at least live with me and Sabrina but trust me, Ian’s place is way nicer
Just don’t live in Vermont
Not that Vermont is bad but WMU ISN’T IN VERMONT
The two of us share a quick chuckle.
“The council has decided for you,” I say, and Callum shrugs.
“I’ll be quiet, and I’ll stay out of the way.”
I scoff. “The fuck you will. You’re getting the living room to yourself.” I hardly even react to him recoiling because I’m already plotting out how I’m gonna rearrange the furniture.
“Don’t let me take over your house.” his voice somehow gets even quieter, and I sling a friendly arm around his warm shoulders to reassure him.
“Again, I’moffering, dude. Besides, do you know how lonely living alone can be? You’d be doingmea favor, too.”
That gets a weak huff out of Callum, and he gives me a smile that manages to be tiny yet warm at the same time. “I really appreciate it, Ian. Thank you so much.”
I return his tiny smile with a huge one of my own. “Don’t even mention it.” Rising to my feet, I place a hand on his elbow. “Come on, let’s get you moved in.”
He shakes his head. “Not now. I have class.”
What in the?—
This guy survived a night in this dumpy fluorescent hell, and he’sstillconcerned about going to class?
“Dude, you need tosleep, not go to class.”
His arm tenses, and I don’t know if he’s about to hug me or punch me in the face.
He does neither. “I’m fine, but thanks. It’s only one class, so I’ll live.”
