The bad boy is my roommate

Chapter four - Hangovers and visitors

"Emma open the damn door" Trisha bangs on the dorm room door for the hundredth time in the past minute

I sit up and put my hand on my head when I realise I should've done that a bit slower

I stumble out of the warmth and comfort of my bed, to answer the door to the early risers

"What are you all doing here?" I mutter after unlocking the door and letting them push it in themselves

"It's almost 12 Emma" Clare deadpans "and we wanted to talk about last night"

I turn around and give them a confused look "what's there to talk about, we were all there"

The four of us all sit around the island, we decided to invest in two extra chairs seen as there was almost always more than me and Grayson here

"Um I don't know maybe about the fact that you punched Grayson?" Maddie remarks sarcastically

I put my head in my hands "thought ye'd forget about that"

"Sweetie, there's a lot of things from that party I wish I could forget but you hitting my brother isn't one of them" Patricia laughs

"So I may have got too drunk" I mutter "but in my defence, it was your birthday" I direct my statement at Clare "and I wanted to give you a party you wouldn't forget"

I've been here for just over a month now and luckily it didn't take me long to settle in. I felt like I've know Patricia, Maddie and Clare forever

"On that note where is my brother?"

I roll my eyes "probably still in some fandoms bed, I haven't seen him since...." I pause thinking of the right word "the incident"

The door opens just as I finish my sentence and Grayson strides in, a noticeable cut on his cheek bone

Jordan walks in next followed by Wesley and Ross, Grayson's two other friends I've had the pleasure of meeting.... not

"Look who it is" Patricia remarks "nice bruise on your face by the way"

"Fuck off" he mutters not finding the funny side of the comment

"Someone got out the wrong side of the girls bed" I mutter

"Someone's in a better mood today" He retorts "your pmsing is getting annoying now sweetheart"

I roll my eyes turning away from him "You're a dick"

"Running out of comments?" I can hear the smirk in his voice "you've used that one before"

The four boys start shouting at the tv because of some basketball match, while us girls continue talking

"Shhhh" I hush everyone when my phone starts ringing and I notice it's my dad

"Why don't you just not answer?" Clare asks noticing who it is

"He'll only keep ringing or knowing him he'll start driving down here to make sure I'm ok"

She nods

I swipe the answer button "Hey dad"

"Hey sweetie, how's college going? I hope you're turning up to all your classes"

I roll my eyes "Everything's going fine and yes everything's going fine

Grayson starts moving, making the only noise in the dorm room

My dad starts telling me about everything that's happening back home and Grayson decides to start playing

"Baby come back to bed" he says loud enough for my dad to be able to hear across the line
