I lift my last box and head to the door. “Don’t miss me too much.”
Austin scrunches his nose. “Don’t worry, I won’t.”
“Liar.”
Austin and I have been best friends since grade school. We roomed
together in the Franklin U dorms as freshmen and for half of our sophomore
year. The plan was always for us to get out of the dorms, though I’ve been
in more of a hurry than Austin. I’ve been on a waiting list for the political
science house, known as Poli House, and didn’t think a spot would open
until next year.
When I got word that a bed would be available at the beginning of the
second semester, Austin encouraged me to take it. But I feel guilty, like I’m
abandoning him.
“Look at all the space I’ll have.” Austin motions to the empty bed on
what used to be my side of the room. He’s been gloating about scoring a
single since I made my decision over winter break. That also makes me
nervous because Austin has hermit tendencies. Not that I’m his keeper, but I
am practically the organizer of his social calendar. Without me, he will
never leave this room except for work and class.
That means I have to step up my plan to get him out more.
“You sure you don’t want me to wait?” I ask, knowing full well he
won’t change his mind. He knows what a good experience it’ll be for me,
especially as I try for local internships. The other residents are as
community-minded as I am, and I’ll have a home base to work on any
number of campaigns. The dorm room is too tiny for all that.
It was the same for me in high school. I was on student council and
loved being active in the community. Austin is an introvert who always has
something to read on his device—even in the middle of parties.
He’s painfully shy and awkward around men he finds attractive, so even
though he loves the idea of romance, he has always been too timid to follow
that dream. But somehow, I can always get him to accompany me to any
number of events. He admits it’s because I’m one of the only people he
likes being around, but if he wasn’t so picky, he’d have more friends. He’s
smart and sweet and amusing too.
“Hell no.” He frowns. “This is important to you.”
“I’ll just have to bug you to help with community-service stuff from
Poli House.”
He pumps his eyebrows. “Oh, you’ll be doing plenty of community
service at the Molly House. I mean Poli.”
I huff out a laugh. I’m not any sort of hookup master, but I like to have a
good time. I’ve never had an actual boyfriend because I suck at the longterm thing. Austin has tried to give me pointers from what he’s read in his
romance books, but I think all that stuff is ridiculous. Plus, I’ve never had
serious feelings for anyone, and I’ve kept myself too busy to care.
