Lucas Scott strode through the deserted hallways, dragging heavy bags behind him. His legs were still jello. He had just landed from his 78 hour flight. Tiredness picked at his muscles. He blinked then carried on, he was only a few feet away from his new home. Finally, the number 308 appeared. Exhaustion was shown clearly by his slow movements. He opened the door, and was blew away by how sweet the plain room smelled. The bed had a nice, warm feathery blanket on it, and the pillow was made of soft cotton. He let his bags fall to the floor as he flopped down on the bed. Nice, blue curtains blew in the chilly wind. Lucas shut the window and watched the curtains fall. A desk was in the corner. He let himself slide out of his jeans, and slide into pajama's. He tore off his short, showing toned abs. His 6 pack covered stomach was tanned, from all the fun he had this summer. He slid under the blankets, and without a sound, fell into a dreamed filled sleep.

(They have roomies sorry haha)
A young man around 22 years old walked up the long stairs to room 308, his normal room where he always was as this was his second year attending the college and it was always a new adventure as he would have to umpact everything he owned once again since they made you high tail yourself out of the dorms for summer break. He was late in the year arriving as he had gone to visit his family, though he swore none of them were to happy about him coming home. Which made him in a more grumpier mood, he wasn't sure who his dormie was gonna be this year so he was anxious once again. When he was a freshman last year he had one of the seniors room with him and they got along fine but since he graduated last year it was going to be hard finding someone else to buddie up with. He had no problems with making new friends though, he just hoped he didn't get some emo kid or something this year.
He slung his duffle bag over his shoulder as he came to the 2nd floor and rolled his bag across the hallways. Familar faces could be seen moving furniture and what not into their own dorms and he smiled and waved to all of them an occasional high five from a buddy as he made his way to the familar room. He unlocked the door with his key, it was atleast 6:00am in the morning and he wasn't sure if his new roomie was in bed or not. His flight had been canceled cause of the weather and he had to wait until the flight was cleared.
The creak of the door sounded as he walked in, the lights were off and some bags were on the floor. He walked to the other bed on the other side of the room and creeped across the room dropping his stuff next to the desk. He had the bed that the other guy was now sleeping. A hour or so drew by and it was now 7:16am all of his stuff was unpacked and he was wondering if the new guy would ever wake up. His side of the room was now just as it was when he left last year only on the other side. His cellphone vibrated and he pulled it out of his pocket. A picture of a pretty brunette girl came to veiw riding a handsome arabian and she pressed the end button. His old girlfriend was trying to reach him, no doubt she was probally going to the same school...

Lucas shot straight up when he heard the door open. He blinked hard to get the sleep out of his eyes, then yawned. He looked at the other guy. No doubt he was as well toned as himself, but was this guy one of those jerks? He didn't seem like it, - Lucas was inturupted by his cell phone. It buzzed, warning him he had a text message. 'If you aren't in your dorm, then I'll kill you. I'm on the way up these stinky halls. ♥ Brooke D.' Lucas rolled his eyes and chuckled, quickly typing a reply. Then he rollled out of bed and straightened. He aimed his body towards the other guy and introduced himself.
"Uh hi. I'm Lucas. I guess were roomies."
He smiled then made his bed quickly, throwing the blankets over top the pillows. He put on his shirt, and then went to the bathroom to put on his jeans. On the walk their, he took another look at the cow boy. The could be friends, as long as they never tried to fist fight. They would both equally be beaten up.
{~Mwuahah, I bring Brooke in next post.!~}

Keith put down his phone on top of his now made up bed, the soun of a grunt came to hearing and Keith hoped he hadn't wakened his new room mate, but it looked like he had. Uh hi. I'm Lucas. I guess were roomies. Ah the awkward moment of meeting your new room mate, Keith deffinately knew the feeling. He smiled then stuck out his hand reterning the handshake.
"Hey I'm Keith, so I take it your one of the new freshman huh? Don't worry about the other guys around here they're all just a bunch of hicks. You'll get used to them."
He said before the boy got up from the bed. Last year when he had first met Junior his last years room mate Junior had given him the whole speach on how the guys here were usually friendly and blah blah blah but instead of boring the kid he decided to just come out and say a short one so that he wouldn't be written off as a cowboy hillybilly who wouldn't shut up. He really wasn't a cowboy he was more of the english type and actually did alot with the thoroughbred racing. He was a groom for some of the nicest looking thoroughbreds in Kentucky and was now entering his second year of college as a vetrinarian when he graduated in the next two years. But other than racing he did some western riding, and in the winter he did hockey. Although hockey was big where he grew up in Vermont it wasn't such a big deal down in Kentucky where he currently stood now.
The sound of a buzzing noise woke his own thoughts as his new room mate flipped opened his own phone and read a text message since he wasn't picking it up he just guessed. He shrugged as he walked over to his bed and picked up his own phone, and looked at the message of a college friend from last year. Hey Keith! Your back in KT! Were gonna have to hang out sometime I want to hear all about your new horse! A text appeared on his screen from Annie Bennet who he had met the following year in his first year of college. She was beautiful, popular and definately bubbly but she also ran and owned her own farm here in Kentucky and they had been good friends last year when they had first met at a local show.

Lucas smiled and shook the guys hand as he streched and combed his hair with his lean hand. "So Keith, what did you come here for? And yes, I am a freshman." Lucas gave a little laugh then looked out the window, to see thick snow flowing out of the sky and onto the ground. He heard a small knock on the door and he hurried over to it, answering it. It was all one motion. Brooke jumped up into his arms and gave him a long hug. It had been a boring 3 years since they had last seen eachother, and they had missed eachother greatly. They had been bestfriends since grade 3, and they did go out a couple of times, though the awkwardness never effected thier ever-lasting friendship. Brooke let go of him and sat down at the boy then saw Keith. She raised a curios eye brow then smiled.
"Well, Lucas, you should have told me Mr.Larosee was your roomie. I bet I would be over here a lot oftener."
She joked and flirted at the same time, giving herself a small laugh

Keith laughed and released his hand from the his roomates hand. So Keith, what did you come here for? And yes, I am a freshman. Lucas asked as he finished combing his hair and set the comb down. Keith nodded he looked the same age as Lucas but you could tell he was taller and more older looking face to face.
"Vetrianarian Medicine and I'm a sophmore here."
He said as she took a duffle bag off his bed and put it in the corner picking up a picture of his thoroughbred mare Flash and himself out of the track in Florida he set it down on his desk then turned to hear the door knock then the familar sight of Brooke who he had met before pop into the rooms and into the arms of Lucas. He smiled as she got down and noticed him, Well, Lucas, you should have told me Mr.Larosee was your roomie. I bet I would be over here a lot oftener Brooke replied as she got down and came over towards him.
"Hey, Brooke." He said as he put his phone on the charger and walked over to the two. He wasn't sure if they were dating or not and he wasn't sure if he was jealous or not but he was happy that they she would be over more often since it seemed the two knew eachother. [/center]

Lucas looked at Keith when he told him what he was trying to accomplish here. He nodded and smiled saying, me too! He listened to Brooke flirt with the older guy and he rolled his eyes. Always flirting and laughing, realaxing and having fun. He had no time for that now that he was in college, and he was jealous that she basically got to roam around, with no homework, exams or endless days.
Brooke smiled at Keith and walked over, taking her time. He looked so... gorgeous, like he always was, being that he was made to be beautiful. She looked him up and down then greeted him with another smile.

Keith watched as Lucas nodded his head and replied with a me too answer and he smiled brighter knowing they'd probally be in some of the classes. Brooke walked over to him and looked up and down their eyes met as she came back and he laughed then turned to Lucas.
"Have they given you your schedule yet?"
He asked causually as he sat on his bed. He needed to get going soon to get his thoroughbred mare out onto the track and working her excerises other wise she'd get lazy and would slack when it came to her next couple of races. He turned to Brooke noticing she seemed to have forgotten about Lucas.
"How are your horses doing Brooke?"
He asked bringing up conversation easily with the two so no one was left out. He hated that. [/center]

Lucas nodded to Keith then rubbed his temple, desperatly needing sleep. He slumped down onto his bed then listened as hard as he could to what his roomate said. Have they given you your schedule yet? He thought hard, and in fact, he hadn't he opened his mouth to reply, when instead he yawned. He shook his head then replied.
"Um, nope, I guess I could go down to the office and get it tomorrow sometime."
Brooke looked at Keith's side of the room while the two guys talked. She let her eyes trace the surroundings, until they landed upon a picture on a night table. She walked closer to it , and as a reward, saw a beautiful mare in the picture. Her thoughts were interupted by Keith's question. How are your horses doing Brooke?
"There doing very Well. Anne, thank god, is doing some of the tasks i should be doing if I weren't so tired from this coldness. And this mare, is she yours? I must say, she is gorgeous."
She replied with a gleeful smile upon her red lips. She bounced onto the bed beside Keith and laughed slightly. Her eyes shone as she looked over at Lucas, whom was shaking his head and smiling.

Lucas rubbed his temples then slumped down onto his bed which was a foot or two away from Keiths. Then before he could reply to the question a yawn escaped his mouth. Um, nope, I guess I could go down to the office and get it tomorrow sometime. Keith nodded his head then yawn seemed to carry as he yawned as well then realized how comfy the matress felt right then. He could use some sleep as well, since he had to stay at the airport so long the day before but he still had to go take care of Flash.
"Good idea," He replied to Lucas. His eyes wondered over to where Brooke was investigating the picture of him and Flash. Her eyes danced along the frame as she looked at it then took a seat beside Keith on the bed.
There doing very Well. Anne, thank god, is doing some of the tasks i should be doing if I weren't so tired from this coldness. And this mare, is she yours? I must say, she is gorgeous. Keith nodded his head knowing that Anne was probally out doing the horses right about now the task he should be going to do now, but he knew he just had to do her stall then go work her since they took care of the rest of the responsiblitys. Annie was good at that, and over the vaction she had watched Flash for him.
"Yeah Annie does a great job." He paused as he looked towards the photo of the horse and rider and nodded his head. "Yup, thats Flash." He leaned back a little thinking about the dappled grey racing filly. She was 3 years now and when Keith had purchased her at auction 2 years ago when she was a yearling she had come a long way.

Lucas let his eyes float ove to the picture on the bed stand. Indeed, the mare was worth the while to take a look at. He smiled, excused himself, and went to the washroom to have a long, hot shower.
"Excuse, me, but.I think .I. Need to have a shower."
His voice was choppy and tired, so he left without another word.
Brooke looked over at Keith and started to wonder about him. There could be so much to talk about but, she did't want to spend her time asking pointless questions. She got up and wandered over to Lucas's stuff, and opened his suitcas, shoving a wolly sweater on. She itched all over and took it off. She couldn't find any other sweaters, and she sighed, shivering as snow ran down her back from the ice in her hair.

(*jeeze she's such a flirt! haha*)
Keith watched as Lucas got up and excused him self to the washroom. Keith nodded his head then watched as Brooke made a effort to find a reasonable sweater for herself to wair. Her hair was like ice as she shivered a little. Keith got up and looked through his closet, he pulled out a big W.S University Sweatshirt and walked over to Brooke handing it to her.
"Cold much? Its freezing in these rooms I'll have to ask the Room director if the heat can be raised."
He said as he leaned back on his shoes then gave a smile to Brooke. He walked back over to his bad and sat down absolutely exhausted now, how as he ever going to get through the morning work outs when he was so out of it. Maybe Flash could use a day off, after all Layla's been riding her for me. He thought as he pulled on one of his own sweatshirts. Then he thought once again, I could give Brooke a lift there... He thought mischeviously then turned to Brooke again.
"Are you heading to the stables? If you are I could give you a lift?"
He said as she got up to grab his cellphone off the shelf, his car keys and wallet. He stuffed the wallet and phone into his pockets and kept the keys out and into his hands.

{~That's the whole point. I was hopping I would have to remind you what "she" was doing rofl.~}
Brooke smiled gratefully to Keith and slipped on his sweater, which was baggy all around. She was thankful, she was starting to feel warm now, and her shivering had slowed down. She inhaled deeply, smelling the sweater. It had his scent all over it, and his scent was so.. enjoyable. It made her want to go and roll around in his stuff. His words put end to her thoughts.
"Well, I suppose I should go down there, my poor horses probally think I've abandoned them."

(*so i see, I'm glad I'm smart ha*)
Brooke slid on his sweatshirt then bundled her hands in the roominess of the sweatshirt. His question seemed to bring her out of her thoughts as she stayed where she had first stood before. Her smile turned towards him now that she seemed to be warming up. His own shivers were decreasing now as she too was warming up. He twirled the car keys in his hand. Well, I suppose I should go down there, my poor horses probally think I've abandoned them. He smiled then walked towards the washroom door knocking on it then telling Lucas they were heading off.
"Alright lets get going then."He said as she unlocked the door to the room and opened it wide. A couple of his dorm buddies were going down the hall to grab some early breakfast, only a couple of them had a girl or two tagging along with them.
