Room for one more?

Name: Fred Richards
Age: 16
Grade: 11
Gender: male
Description: http://www.weberence.com/wp-content/upl ... outube.jpg
Personality: Fred has little respect for authority and discipline, living life by his own "code". Although he is clearly intelligent, he doesn't bother much when it comes to school - it is rumoured that his father bribed the headmaster to let Fred stay. He has a very strong sense of honour, and he likes to stick up for the underdog. He disapproves of "an eye for an eye", and is also anti-violence, though he is prepared to use violence when necessary.
History: Born in Britain, his father was a businessman who was offered a well-paid job in Maine. This resulted in Fred's parents divorcing, as his mother was not prepared to move. Though he wanted to stay with his mother, Fred moved willingly with his father, on the condition that his father sent half of his earnings to Fred's mother every year.
Other: Up for love. His favourite subjects are History and Art (he uses History as inspiration for his Art). This year is his third year at the school. He rarely puts himself in a leadership position, usually following others around, though he will split off from groups if he dislikes them.

MATT CAUTHON

I pulled in to the parking lot and parked my Audi R8 expertly between two other cars. I turned off the car and rubbed my hands across my temples. It was still weird not having a ring finger.

I opened the door and walked around to the trunk to get my luggage. I noticed a few people staring at my car. I laughed a little as I walked to my dorm room. When I got to the door i swiped my card and the door clicked open. I went through the halls looking for my number. 301, 301, 301, when I finally found it I opened the door and dropped my stuff. I did a quick look over of the apartment before putting my stuff away.

There were five rooms. Two small bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and a small bathroom. Well, at least we'll have privacy, I thought. There was one problem with the layout. It was completely empty except for a stove in the kitchen, a couch in the living room and a small cot in each bed room. It looked like I would have to go out...

I chose the smaller room and dropped my bags on the bed. There was no where to put anything, so I didn't bother packing.

I walked into the kitchen with a sheet of paper and left a note saying 'I went out to buy some stuff for the apartment. I'll be back in a while. I only getting public stuff, but if you need anything for your room just call me 404-429-9467.'

Then I left, closing the door behind me. As I was walking to a car I saw a girl get out of her car. She looked like a prep. I guess were going to have a big variety in students...

When I started my car I was immediately happier. I liked driving. I pulled out of the driveway and was immediately passing seventy miles an hour.

OOC: anyone can be my room-mate.

I watched as most kids were drooped of by their parents who lovingly hugged them. Yet here I was waving goodbye to my cleaning lady. I couldn't wait till I could drive. I grabbed my luggage and hauled it inside. I found my room. 301, I wondered who my roommate was, last year it was this crazy guy that liked to talk to his food before he ate it. After I dropped my stuff of, I decide to go to the community pool Swimming always calmed me. I got into my bathing suit and walked down to the indoor pool.

*Hey rider I hope it's ok if I make u roomates*

~~~~ May ~~~~

I stared up at the overly long road in the town, wasnt this place supposed to be small? I thought to myself, I had done some reasearch and the actual residence was that much, it mainly was made up of teachers and staff members of the school. i had just gotten of the bus coming here and smiled a my smile. A smile, where as, if you knew me you would know to either A. Watch for falling objects or B. Shes gonna go blow somebodies mind. I continued to walk forward, toward the school with my mesenger bag full of manga and other useless stuff. I sighed when i had walked atleast half a mile, by the time i get there, my much needed window bed will be gone. I started to jog up the road, It looked longer a while ago but now I was apporching the school at expert pace. I started to slow my pace to a skip and then to a stop. I pulled out the printout from my bag and looked at it.

"YAY!" i cried and then nearby people stared at me and I waved.

The building i was staying in was both sexes because my parents hated the idea that i might even become a lesbian in the dorms after everything Ive done. i was aproaching the back of the apartment building and already had my room picked out for the taking. It was the small room on the second floor. I expertly unlocked the kitchen window and barreled thru like a pro ninja. Who used keys anymore?

I noticed my dropped off stuff with the airport insignia sticker on them and tossed em up the stairs. I got half way up and remembered i didnt have a room number so i ran back down them. Leaving my stuff on the floor, why couldnt they just give it to us when they mailed all that other crap to us? I looked for the registration thing and slipped into line when no one was looking. I received my room key later, with it and attached number, 302 i mumbled and i went back to the house.

I walked slowly back up the steps to where i left my stuff, I looked into my room,
"why the heck is there only one bed?!" i said to myself because i knew i was alone in the apartment.
I really didnt care, so i just flopped my portable air matress out and set it out like a cot and fell asleep.


I NEED A ROOMATE PLEASEE!!! :3

Emily

I leaned back in the arm chair, resting from my flight. Scanning the room, my eyes caught the room number. 303. I wondered who would be my roommate. My parents were such dweebs for sending me here. I could get in real trouble in such a fancy place.

Suddenly, the door knob twisted and a girl walked in. "Hi. I guess we're roommates?" she asked. I nodded.

*Spot open to be Emily's roommate*

Marianne

I parked my BMW 645i (a privilege from walking away from a divorce with millions) in a free spot at the school's parking lot. I took the instructions paper from my black bag. my dorm was a dorm called 302 on the second floor. I lifted my luggage of the floor - two huge rolley trucks- an I went to the second floor.
I already had my key; I had stopped by the lounge first. I opened the door and found a girl inside.
"Hey! I'm May!", she said, excited.
"Hi. I'm Marianne, but just call me Maria", I said shaking her hand. She had a huge smile on her face. She had taken the first room on the right, so i took the one on the left of that one. there were two more rooms left.
"hey", I called,"is there going to anyone else?"
"I don't know. Maybe."
I acknowledged her answer with a small shake of my head. I putted my bags on teh floor, next to a small closet, and moved the bed a little bit, so that it was closer to the window. I started unpacking. My hands went through my memories.
I'm half Portuguese. My dad's Portuguese. I used to live in Portugal. I loved my country!
Now I'm stuck on this dump.
I walked out of the room, to chat with May. I liked her.
"Hey, May-"
I was interrupting by the door opening.

*Hey, lizzifer hope you don't mind me coming on your dorm like that :D. So boys, someone walk in the damn dorm! *laughs* *

I pulled into the parking lot for the small appliance store and walked up to the cash register.

"Hello Sir, how may I help you?"

I smiled, "Im a student at the school, and my dorm was- is, very empty. I was going to get some things for it, but I realized that My car cant really hold much..." I looked out at my two door Audi.

"Well, we do deliveries to the school."

"How long would that take?"

"As soon as you buy them we drive them in our truck out to the school and help you movie in."

I smiled again, "Thank you."

I moved through the aisles picking out the items that I had thought I would need on the drive over here. I couldn't carry them with me so I memorized the number. For the living room I bought another small couch, a shelf, and a flat screen TV. For my room I bought a book shelf and a couple of bean bags. I preferred an open room. The kitchen seemed to have everything it needed so I didn't bother buying anything. I also didn't want to get food until I met my room mate.

When they had packed everything into their truck we drove to the school. Unpacking was a little difficult, but it went smoothly, and in a half hour the apartment looked completely different. I went in my room and started unpacking my things. I put my hundreds of CD's on my shelf along with my favorite books. The few clothes that I had brought with me went under my bed in a suitcase. My guitar was put up in a corner and my computer went on my bed. I flipped through my CD's and pulled out an old Guns n' Roses CD. I pressed play and picked up my guitar to play along.

"See you later Fred."

Fred said nothing as he got out of the car, deciding instead to give a disinterested grunt and half-hearted wave to his dad. He had had to endure an hour of his dad boasting about his new car, so he wasn't feeling like talking to him by this point.

Upon entering the building, Fred noticed an unfamiliar girl looking around, clearly unsure about something.

"Are you okay?" He asked. "You look lost."

She turned around, surprised.

"Oh, um, well I've forgotten my room number."

"Don't you have it written down? Attached to your key?"

She shook her head.

"Right..." Fred scratched his head, "that's weird. But you do have a key?"

"Yeah."

Fred frowned, rubbing his chin.

"Right...what's your name?"

"Alyse. Alyse Walker."

"I'm Fred," he said, shaking Alyse's hand, "my room number is 304. I really need a...I'm a bit busy right now, but I'll be in my room most of the day, so if you still can't find your room in an hour or something, that's where I'll be."

He waved and ran off to the nearest toilet. He nearly told Alyse that he really needed a piss, but decided against it, fully aware that first impressions count.

*I'm happy to be anyone's room mate*

"Hey again Maria!' She was so cool looking, so I just had to talk o her.
"Oh! and hi randomer!" I motioned to the person who woke me up.

*dont worry i like guests*

I heard guns and roses playing in a nearby room and automatically swaying along, and then I became curious when i heard the guitair playing along well with it.

"Do you know who is in the room next door?" I was now dancing to it and danced toward the music in the next room.

Maria shrugged and answered, "Lets find out shall we?"

We walked, well I danced to the other room and opened it, on a green beanbag sat a black haired guy.

"Hi!!! Im May!! Nice to meet you!" and he stared at me like an idiot.

When the door opened suddenly I nearly dropped my guitar.

"Hi!!! Im May!! Nice to meet you!"

Was this my room mate? I thought he was already here?

"Umm... Hi" I managed to respond.

She walked over and plopped down on the couch across from me, "Keep on playing, it was nice."

This girl was very odd.

I steadied the guitar on my lap and waited for the right moment before joining back in with the song. Another girl walked in through the door. Two girls? Did they want me to be incoherent?

AS i played the other girl started to dance i her seat, then gave up and just stood up.

I laughed at the reaction of the guy. May really did know how to make an entrance. The guy stopped playing the guitar, and the CD continued playing.
"I think he's in shock", I whispered to May.
Maybe he heard, because he got up and walked towards us.
"Hey, I'm Matt."
May smiled.
"Maria", I said, waving from behind May.

*Fred can join us if he wants. i think lizzifer won't mind*

"Heyyyy why you stop?" I looked at him and then sighed.

"Your really good, now why do you want to torture me by stopping like an overly mean person??"

Maria nodded and smiled, I smiled even wider. This guy was weird and quiet, i liked him. Since there was an akward silence I just said something random.

"Ya know, we need a cake or something!" I smiled and jumped in place.
