Freshman Year - Reed's Decision
After eating a surprisingly good brunch (which included three glasses of warm orange juice and two aspirin), Reed Johnson made his way to his dorm room. The previous night was mostly a blur to him - thanks to the "punch"... yet what he did remember consisted of images and wonderful sensations. The proof of his sensations was a pair of lavender panties in his back pocket - a gift from his "dance partner" Tamara Cooke.
He was still grinning as he made way up the flights of stairs to his room. Entering the hall, he saw Marla leaving from his room with two empty trays. Waving, Reed saw her face light up and she began laughing. Puzzled, he asked,
"What's so funny?"
"Your silly 'I just got fucked' grin," she said approaching him, "So you found that girl who you danced with last night heh?"
"No comment..." he started as she stopped in front of him shaking her head. Stopping, Reed looked at the attractive junior soccer player sternly. Her laughing increased upsetting him.
"You shouldn't give people a stern look with that grin - it's sooooo funny." She pushed him back using the trays, then walked by him mumbling "Newbies" shaking her head. Before she left his sight, Reed shouted "Maid!" then continued on to room 215 - his room.
Opening the door, he immediately saw his roommate sitting on the beanbag chair (HIS addition to the room) watching a local television show. Looking at the wall clock hanging above the window, Reed realized it was almost three in the afternoon - he was with Tamara the whole morning (DAMN).
Turning around, Reed's roommate waved - then seeing that grin - began laughing loudly and wildly like Marla. His face scowling, Reed hissed, "Don't you start Alexander. Just got the laugh track from Marla-"
"But that grin is soooo fucking stupid," Alex mused back stifling his laughs.
"Nothing to be ashamed about Newbie - you got fucked. BIG DAMN DEAL.... It's good to get rid of some of that sperm. Too much in your system and you can get sic-"
"No... I do not follow your logic for getting ass three times a week mister," Reed replied. "I am not a nympho - that's YOU. It just happened is all..."
"Bull-fucking-shit," Alex said before bursting out laughing again. He was shirtless in the beanbag chair; he still had on the jeans he wore to the party the night before.
"Marla told me how you ran out da car looking for the girl who gave you the boner. When we didn't see you back at the room, we figured you found her and was getting that boner sucked and fucked. And," he stood, walked over to Reed, and took the panties out his back pocket, "we see that you succeeded. Next time, tuck them in deeper..." Walking to Reed's desk by the window, he inspected them in the sunlight, nodded then dropped them on the desk. Reed stood motionless through the whole scene.
"What the hell did you just do Alex?"
"Checked the front of them for the wet spot," he replied sitting back down in the chair. "Though it dried, I can tell how big the spot was. Call it my 'specialty radar.' Come on, I know you have one too-"
His smirk only made Reed more upset at him. Then, the moment passed and he changed so he could shower - all the while that grin on his face. Showering, Reed's thoughts wandered back to the images of Tamara... Tamara dancing intimately close with him... Tamara snuggled against him as they walked back to campus... those alert hazel eyes showing him her innermost wants and desires as they kissed... her sweat-soaked body under his as he fucked her relentlessly...
The curtain being pulled back startled him out of his thoughts. Turning covering his cock angrily, he saw Alex standing in just a towel laughing at him. Shaking his head, Alex said, "You been in here 20 fucking minutes. It doesn't take that long to clean up from fucking. Boy, you don't do it much do you?"
"FUCK YOU Alex." Reed said irritably. He didn't like his roommate - a junior - keeping tabs of his sex life. He couldn't believe the Housing Department set him up with an upperclassman; a downside of being part of a large incoming class (and being the same major as Alex). Still, Reed did enjoy the wild stories the junior told during late nights (and the upperclassmen female friends he kept weren't too shabby either).
Sighing, Reed turned back around and continued showering.
"If you not gonna clean my back, I suggest you close the damn curtain and leave fuckwat," Reed said grabbing for the soap. Laughing, Alex shut the curtain and soon after Reed heard a second shower running. SONOFABITCHMOTHERFUCKER Reed thought as he finished his shower, his thoughts trailing occasionally back to the night before and Tamara (that grin reappearing).
The following four days Reed didn't think much about his first party or Tamara (unless Alex or Marla joked about it). He never mentioned to them her name; he figured it was a one night stand. It was an excellent one-night stand... yet a one time thing with an attractive upperclassman.
His class schedule was typical for a freshman; the workload however, Reed was not totally ready for it. He spent most of that week in the Library or in his room; Alex kept him company (unwanted sometimes) and even tutored Reed in a couple of classes.
Marla would stop by a couple of times to drop off some "stuff" for Alex (alcohol since she worked in town next door to it), yet they had no company. Haverlawn University was known for its demanding classes and workload - many students had little time for socializing outside of the weekend.
When Friday approached, Reed was relieved. He didn't think he would have made it without sneaking a couple naps during the week (and drinking some of the
"stuff" that was stashed in HIS fridge). After his last class ended, a sense of freedom washed over him. The air was crisper; the trees were more colorful and the grass was a brighter - a sign he was relieved he didn't have to think about anything until Sunday night.
Not wanting to sit in his room, Reed took a tour of his new school. Normally, he would take the main paths that took him around the main parts of the campus; today, he took some lesser-used paths that guided him past the skyscraper-style Sullivan Sundial Needle/Water tower (named after first President of university) and onto the farmland acreage. Not much to see... acres of wheat or grass with a scattering of buildings -
Until one got to the southern tip of the field. There stood an old weatherworn barn and a tall, wide wheat silo. Both were "off limits" but that didn't stop students from checking out some of the oldest stuff on campus or in the town. Past the barn were where the first settlers of Haverlton lived; the barren patches of land and building ruins were the only evidence. Stopping a hundred yards from the barn (six foot electric wire fence is why), Reed stood and watched the relics in silence - trying to let his mind get clear.
Another reason students visited this spot appeared to Reed's right; the setting sun glowed a fiery orange-red casting the horizon a golden hue calming Reed more.
Watching half the sun set, Reed was totally oblivious to the couple a few feet behind him. They too were watching the sunset, the man's arms around the female. A sneeze startled Reed out of his meditative state. He whirled around quickly wondering who was behind him...
He nearly fell back against the electric fence. The look of surprise on his face registered with the guy for he said, "Whoa... sorry man to scare ya. The grass round here still gets my sinuses going... been here three fucking years and my nose still can't take all the damn fresh air." Chuckling, the man blew his nose with a tissue, then tucked it in his back pocket. The female with the sneezer was what caught Reed's eye (and his crotch)...
"Tamara?" Reed asked.
Nodding, Tamara smiled lovingly towards Reed. Her companion gave her a puzzled look. "You know him Tamara? He's a Newbie... how you-?" Facing her companion (having to look up to do so) she said, "Met him in passing Kevin. He's Alexander's roommate ya know."
Saying that smoothed the lines of doubt on Kevin's face - though Reed's face held some. Looking at Kevin, he suddenly felt awfully small. Kevin "Bruiser" Bryant - linebacker on the football team - stood six and half feet tall with very broad shoulders, muscles seemingly everywhere bulging (he wore his shirts tight to show them off), a neck as thick as a tree trunk, massive hands... Reed definitely felt small in his presence. Kevin's dark inquisitive brown eyes, bald head and rich brown complexion completed his look giving him that model edge - making him one of the most wanted men on campus.
