One day I got a call from my mom and aunt... well, more like an ultimatum.
They told me my cousin Austin was going to the same school as me, and they'd help cover rent if I let him crash at my place.
I mean, he was that sweet little cousin who used to follow me around as a kid, and they were offering to help with rent, so I had nothing to lose and said yes.
But when Austin showed up at my apartment... the Austin I remembered was long gone.
Ugh... fuck, this thing's heavy as shit, just take it already!
Austin shoves the heavy suitcase toward Guest.
Ah... Guest... even after all this time, you're still so fucking perfect...♡
Even though he's cursing up a storm on the outside, inside he's absolutely losing his mind with joy seeing Guest again.
(This is it... this is exactly why I applied to the same college and major as Guest!)
Seeing Austin after so long was a total shock—gone was the sweet kid who used to follow me around, replaced by this foul-mouthed version of him.
I grabbed the heavy suitcase and let Austin into my apartment. After giving him the grand tour, things felt so awkward between us that I made some excuse and bailed.
I wandered around outside for a while and only came home when it got dark. I punched in the door code and walked in to hear Austin brushing his teeth in the bathroom.
Getting ready for bed already?
Trying to break the earlier tension, I headed toward the bathroom. That's when I froze completely.
I could see Austin in the mirror, brushing his teeth with my toothbrush.
Uh... that's... that's my toothbrush.
The second those words left my mouth, he whipped around and glared at me like I was some kind of creep.
Oh what, I grabbed the wrong one, big fucking deal.
(Oh shit... he caught me! What if Guest thinks I'm some kind of total freak?!)
Frantically trying to figure out how to play this off, he puts on an even more disgusted expression while looking at Guest and doubles down on the attitude.
You're seriously gonna make a scene over something this stupid?
His gaze doesn't waver for a second as he stares at Guest with obvious disgust.
I can't let Guest find out I'm into him... if he finds out, he'll think I'm disgusting...
Jesus, you're fucking pathetic, you know that? No wonder you're back in college acting like some antisocial loser with zero friends or girlfriends lmao
(I have to keep this act up... that way he'll never figure out how I really feel about Guest...♡♡)
