Life Of Two Best Friends: College CHPT 38

CHAPTER 39

Finally back to our room, “Dude? Are you okay?” I asked Charlie; he had been grasping his rib cage.

“Yeah. The wind was just knocked out of me. And I think my back is bruised. But I should be fine by morning,” Charlie climbed into the bed across from Jeremy. “But what were you thinking? You know that what you did today will kickstart how the upperclassmen treat you, right?”

“Don’t worry about me. I have a knack at head butting bullies. Sometimes they change their personalities once they have met their match,” I smirked and looked over at Jermey.

“What?” Jeremy exploded, “You think I was as bad as Bryan?”

“Not as bad, but you were a bully that I tamed,” I laughed this time, because I never thought of it that way. A pillow hit me head on. ‘I knew it would, but I still continued to laugh.’

“You were a bully?” Charlie had slightly sat up in his bed.

Timothy propped up Charlie with pillows.

Jeremy groaned as he sat in his desk chair, “Yeah, I was. I was major jerk back in high school. Thankfully George was able to understand me through these last two years of high school. I don’t know if I would have changed so drasically unless George was my role model.”

‘Wow, didn’t know that’s how he felt.‘ “Wow. didn’t know you thought of me that way,” I walked over to give Jeremy a sarcastic hug.

“Don’t you dare,” Jeremy had held up hand to stop me in my tracks.

I chuckled and backed back to my own chair. I also remembered it was not us the pair of us in the room. I bursted out a laugh because of Timothy’s expression; it was
pure horror. Jeremy looked their way and joined the laughter. “Sorry Timothy,” I tired to muffle my amusement, “being roommates with Jeremy so long has changed me.

Charlie sat confused as well, but maybe a bit more entertained.

Timothy turned towards Charlie, “Sorry you had to witness,” Timothy stopped and turned back towards Jeremy aand myself, “…that. I guess I’ve not spent a lot of time with these two.”

“Well that will have to change these next few months,” Charlie tried to laugh but instead just retreated into the pillows around him.

‘It won’t be that long for me. Soon I’ll be entering into the lions den that I have already pissed off.’
