Part 1: Roommate Wrestling
Morning sunlight spilled into the small off-campus apartment, casting long, golden streaks across the living room floor. Jason emerged from his bedroom, still groggy, rubbing the back of his neck as he padded toward the kitchen. The faint aroma of coffee lingered in the air, but what caught his attention was Sophie, already on her yoga mat in the center of the room.
She moved with fluid precision, her ponytail swinging as she stretched into a deep lunge. Dressed in snug workout gear, Sophie looked completely at ease, her athleticism on full display. Jason paused, leaning against the counter with a half-smile. Typical Sophie--always full of energy, even at this hour. Hearing Jason enter the room, she decided to get on her hands and knees on the yoga mat arching her back provocatively in the suggestive cat-cow pose. She loved to tease him just to get a reaction, she knew how good her body looked, and she knew how to use it.
Grabbing a water bottle from the fridge, Jason twisted off the cap and took a sip.
Jason leaned against the kitchen counter, sipping his water as he watched Sophie stretching on her yoga mat. He couldn't help admit she looked damn fine in her grey form fitting sports bra and matching yoga pants. The scene felt oddly familiar, like a page ripped straight from their childhood. Back then, it had been Sophie dragging him outside for impromptu races or testing out a new game she'd invented. Now, here they were, sharing an off-campus apartment as freshmen at the same university.
It still felt surreal sometimes. They'd grown up two doors down from each other, inseparable through middle school and high school. When Sophie had suggested they room together to save on rent, it felt like the obvious choice. Neither of them had siblings, so in a way, they had always been each other's family.
Jason glanced around the apartment. It wasn't much--just a small two-bedroom space with a tiny kitchen and a living area they'd barely furnished. But it already felt like home, mostly because Sophie's energy filled every corner of it.
Sophie glanced over her shoulder, catching his eye with a mischievous grin. "Like what you see?" She teased. He shrugged, trying to hide his arousal. "Just admiring the room is all." She looked unconvinced but decided to let him off the hook.
"So how's it feel living with your favorite person in the world?" Sophie asked, looking up from her stretch.
Jason smirked, setting his water bottle down. "I don't know. When do they move in?"
She rolled her eyes but grinned. "Funny. I'm going to start charging you for all this entertainment I provide."
"Why buy the cow when you get the milk free?" Jason shot back.
She got up and smacked him playfully. "Did you just call me a cow? And since when did I ever give you the milk." she said, amused.
"Ow! That hurt." he said, pretending to rub his shoulder in pain.
"I learned something new at the gym this morning," she said casually.
Jason arched an eyebrow but didn't respond, watching as she brushed off her leggings and crossed the room toward him.
"Some guy at the gym, kind of cute, showed me a few wrestling moves," she continued, a playful glint in her eyes. "Thought I'd try them out on you."
Jason tried not to let the 'cute' comment annoy him. Why did he feel this way? They were just friends.
"Oh yea..?" he said skeptically.
