The Roommate

Harmony's POV: August 16: 8:45 AM: My name is Harmony Bri'Elle Wilkins. I am 18 years old and I'm from Los Angeles, California. I am 5'5 with long black hair. I have a small waist with a small titties and a round ass. I am Puerto Rican and black. My dad is black and my mom is Puerto Rican. I have one brother and he's 24. He lives here in Washington and I haven't seen him every since I was 14. I just arrived at my new school, Howard University in Washington DC. I was so excited to be here. I have a full scholarship. My field will be a neonatologist. I parked my car and got out. I grabbed my purse and walked onto the campus. I saw a line and saw the title Registration. I got in line and observed everything. I was starting to get nervous. I took a deep breath and exhaled. It was finally my turn to register. I walked up. "Hi what's your name" the lady asked. "My name is Harmony Wilkins" I said. "Okay Ms. Wilkins, here is your schedule" she said handing me it. I took the schedule and walked back to my car. School doesn't actually start until the 23rd, which is next week. I started to read over my schedule. -Year One: Fall (Daily) •8:00 AM: ENG 104 •9:00 AM: MATH 111 •10:30 am: BIO 101 -Year One: Spring (Daily) •9:00 AM: BIO LAB •10:00 AM: HIST 101 •11:00 AM: SPCH 100 -Year One: Summer (Daily) •8:00AM: ENG 105 •9:30 AM: HIST 102 •11:00 AM: MATH 112 I loved my schedule, the hours are perfect. I pulled off towards my apartment. I decided I didn't want to stay in the dorms so my parents helped me get a 2 bedroom apartment but I have to pay rent on my own. There's no way I can afford $1,250 a month on my own. And since rent is due in a week, I need to find a roommate. Trevante's POV: I am just pulling up at this school. I promised my mama I would complete both high school & college. I got out of my Range Rover and walked to the registration area. "Hi what's your name" the woman asked. "Trevante Carter" I said proudly. "Okay Mr. Carter, here's your schedule" she said. I grabbed my schedule and walked back towards my car. School doesn't start until another week so ima be chilling and looking for somewhere to stay. I refuse to stay in a f*****g dorm. I looked over my schedule and hated the s**t already. -Year One: Fall (Daily) •8:00 AM: ENG 104 •9:00 AM: MATH 111 •10:30 am: BIO 101 -Year One: Spring (Daily) •9:00 AM: BIO LAB •10:00 AM: HIST 101 •11:00 AM: HE 102 -Year One: Summer (Daily) •8:00AM: ENG 105 •9:30 AM: HIST 102 •11:00 AM: MATH 112 I hopped in my car and headed towards the mall. I pulled up and hopped out. On the way in, my phone rung. I pulled it out and answered it. "Yo" I said into the phone. "Aye nigga where you at" my nigga Troy asked. "At the mall" I said as I walked in. "Word I'm on the way there now" he said as I hung up. I walked straight to footlocker. I needed the new foams. I went to them and picked out my size and waited for them at the register. "Aye wassup" Troy said as he dapped me. "Nun man" I said as I handed the cashier my card. She swiped it and handed me my shoes. "You still need a place to stay" he asked as we walked thru the mall. "Yea man, I've been looking and can't find s**t I'm cool with" I said honestly. I don't trust nobody so finding a place where a nigga can sit right with is hard. And my profession don't make it no better. "I seen a young ass girl this morning asking for a roommate" he said. "The b***h fine" I asked. "Hell yea, shawty had ass for years" Troy said smiling. "You know where she at" I asked. "Yea I overheard her say her apartment number and s**t" he said. "s**t lets go then" I said as we walked out the mall and hopped on our cars. I followed Troy until we got to the apartments. They were some nice ass apartments. s**t look expensive ass hell but money ain't an issue. I followed Troy as he walked to apartment 9A. I knocked and a fine ass girl answered the door. She was beautiful. She had long ass hair that looked real with little titties but ass to make up for it. She had beautiful brown eyes. Wait, what the hell am I thinking? "Um excuse me, can I help y'all" she asked looking scared. "My boy here overheard that you needed a roommate and I am looking for one" I said staring into her beautiful eyes. "Well I don't know y'all for y'all to be coming up in my place" she said. "We cool. We not going to hurt you or anything" Troy said. "I go to Howard University and a nigga ain't staying in a dorm and its too late to sign a lease so I need a roommate. And the apartments seem kinda nice" I said. "Fine y'all can come in" she said. "Well I got business to tend to so I'll get back to you" Troy said as he dapped me. I walked into the apartment and looked around. It was more like a townhouse, s**t was nice as f**k. "Uh what's your name" she asked. "Trevante Carter but call me Tre what's yours" I asked. "Harmony Wilkins" she said smiling. Damn even her smile was beautiful. I can't believe I'm actually calling a b***h beautiful. "Let's take a tour" she said as she started to walk upstairs. Upstairs, there was two big ass rooms with bathrooms in each. There was a 1/2 bathroom and a closet in the hall. We walked back downstairs and the kitchen was dope and so was the living room. "So what you think" she asked. "I'll take it" I said. "You don't even know how much rent costs" she said. "Money ain't an issue so I'll take it" I said laughing at her expression. "Let's talk first" she said. "Aight" I said licking my lips as she blushed. "So um we will have rules" she said. "You have to help pay rent, buy groceries, and other household things. We have to respect each other's things. If one of us have company, the other cannot interfere. You have to keep the apartment clean, we don't have maids" she said sternly. I nodded as I examined her. I can tell she was shy and I was ready to break that s**t. All I gotta do is get her fine ass in bed with me. "Okay cool, I agree with all that" I said. "Are you a killer or anything" she asked. "Nah ma, I'm cool. Ima laid back, chill kinda nigga. I ain't crazy" I said half way telling the truth. Ima thug so I kill when I have to. She nodded. "Well I guess you're my roommate" she said. "I'll go get my s**t" I said. "Need help" she asked. "I got it" I said. I went outside and began unloading my Range. Harmony's POV: After I got home earlier, I began to search for roommates. It was so hard that I actually had gave up. But now I have a roommate. I know this is kinda dangerous, just inviting a stranger to live with you. But I don't get that crazy vibe so I will hopefully be okay. He was fine as hell tho. He came back with his hands full with suitcases. He took the suitcases to his room and came back in. I sat on the couch and he sat on the other couch across from me. "Are you done" I asked. "Yea" he said. "So tell me about yourself. I don't want to be living with a stranger" I said. "Well my name is Trevante Maurice Carter. I'm 18 and I'm majoring in business. I'm from here. Once again, ima laid back nigga and I'm from here and I got two sisters , they are 16 and they twins. That's about it" he said. "What are their names" I asked. "Serenity and Trinity so what about you" he asked. "My name is Harmony Bri'Elle Wilkins, and I'm 18. I'm from LA. I'm majoring in a neonatologist. I'm kinda shy but I don't mind stepping out of character. I have a brother and he's 24. His name is Cortes. And that's about it" I said. Tre smiled and licked his lips. I blushed and looked down at my lap. "That's cool, but you gotta chill with this shyness" he said as he got up and sat by me. "You sexy as f**k" he said getting close to me and getting in my face. I was nearly hypnotized by him. His eyes were a bright, bold hazel and they were beautiful. He placed his hand on my thigh and began rubbing up it. I moved his hand and slid away from him. He chuckled and got up and went upstairs. This is going to be an interesting living situation.
