Brian and I moved into our dorms. The first night I stayed in my dorm and Andrew went back to his apartment. School didn't start for another week. The next night Andrew invited me over to his house. He said he just wanted to be with me. Since I didn't have my car, I went to Brian's room so I could ask him for a ride. I knocked on his door.
"Hey Amanda. Come in," Brian said when he opened the door.
"Hey. I need a ride. Can you drive me over to Andrew's apartment?" I asked while walking.
"Sure, let's go." Brian grabbed his keys and we went out to his car. When we started off to Andrew's, Brian asked, "So how's it goin' with you and him?"
"Good," I responded.
"That's good. You know if you need anything, Kevin and me are always here for ya. You know that, right?"
"Yeah, I know. But remember what I told you? About how I don't need your help."
"Yeah, I remember."
"Good."
"So, you ready for college?"
"I guess."
"You guess?"
"I mean, it's not like I have a choice now. School's starting in a week. Are you ready for college?"
"Yeah, I'm psyched."
I laughed. "Well here we are. I'll see ya later, Brian. Thanks for the ride."
"No prob, later."
I got out of the car and walked up to the building. I went in the door and up to Andrew's apartment. He opened the door and I walked in.
"Hey, baby," Andrew said while closing the door.
"Hey," I responded as he pulled me close to him. "So you missed me, huh?"
"Yep. I miss you every second I'm not with you. I love you, Amanda."
"I love you too, Andrew," I responded, kissing him.
"Will you stay here tonight?"
"I don't know."
"We don't have to do anything, if you don't want to."
I thought for a moment.
"You can trust me," he said.
"Ok," I said softly. That night I stayed there at Andrew's apartment. He still knew that I wasn't ready to have sex, so I guess he respected that. He just held me close that night.
The next morning, I woke up early. I was planning on making Andrew breakfast, maybe to make him happy for once. I gently got out of bed and quietly walked to the kitchen area. I opened the refrigerator to look what kind of food Andrew had. He didn't have much, typical. He did have a few eggs though. I grabbed two eggs and closed the door.
I took out a pan and started to cook the eggs. Then I heard a noise from the bedroom.
