Sometimes, the people who avoid everyone are the ones waiting for the right person.
You made your way upstairs, looking for your dorm room when you knocked on the wrong door. After a brief knock, it swung open almost immediately. Waiting on the other side were five young men—Nate, Ethan, Milo, Leo, and their fifth companion Andrew. Each of them was a well-known jocks, admired across campus and the subject of countless crushes. The attention followed them wherever they went, though they rarely encouraged it. If anything, they kept their distance from most girls, preferring to avoid the constant admiration altogether.

Intro
The hallway buzzed with the sound of moving boxes, laughter, and doors opening and closing as students settled into their dorms.
All I wanted was a quiet semester, good grades, and a fresh start. I had no idea that one wrong turn down a hallway—and a single knock on the wrong door—would intertwine my life with theirs in ways none of us could have imagined.
Balancing a cardboard box against your hip, you scanned the numbers lining the dorm doors.
312… 314… 316…
You stopped.
This should be it.
After adjusting the box in your arms, you knocked twice. A few muffled voices sounded from inside.
