John walked into his new dorm room. It was a Sunday, classes would begin tomorrow. He was glad to be only a few hours away from home and only a few bus stops from Vicky and his girlfriend, Sarah. He would be working on a PhD in marine biology for only a few more years.
Things between him and Sarah had begun to become fairly serious. They hadn't gone very far past saying "I Love You" but to John that had seemed like a very big step. Only two beds, one dresser, and two small desks occupied the dorm room. John was excited to only have one dorm mate. He chose the right desk by setting last year's Christmas photo in a place of honor and he made the right bed with his sheets and pillow.
As he threw his largest suitcase onto the bed a voice startled him, "well if it isn't John Austin."
Vicky was back for her last year at college before she got her Masters. Her floor at Wellesley was filled with nice girls from all over the country. She arrived at room 204 and paused to look for the key. Just as she was about to unlock the door it was opened and a rather tall, pretty girl.
"Hi," the girl said when she saw Vicky, "I'm Sarah Gingerly, you are?"
"Vicky, Vicky Austin," she supplied.
"Well I guess we're roommates. There is a bed and a desk ready for you. My stuff's in the top two dresser drawers and the right side of the closet," Sarah replied kindly. "Once your settled come to room 211, the girls there are letting their room be open for introductions. See you in a little while"
Vicky thanked her and Sarah helped her get the big suitcases in a place where she could unpack them easily and the two headed to room 211.
John turned around to see none other that Adam Eddington grinning at him.
