As November rolled by, the nights grew colder. It was the day before Thanksgiving break, and Becky and I were on the roof of the dorm building and looking up at the stars. Since Becky was majoring in astronomy, she pointed out all the constellations to me. Well, at least she started to. We managed to make it through three of them before our star gazing turned into another make out session.
It was how we pretty much spent all our nights together. She and I would sit on my bed, studying or working on our assignments. Then when we were finished, we'd cuddle up and kiss for hours with the occasional dry hump added in when she got super excited. The first time she suddenly did this, I damn near came in my pants as her pelvis grinded against my hip.
We still hadn't moved on beyond the kissing, but I didn't care. When I held Becky in my arms, the world felt perfect to me. Like nothing bad could get me down.
"We should go inside," Becky said as she shivered a little. It was really starting to get cold now, so I agreed. We gathered up our blankets and made our way back down to my room.
"So," Becky said as we sat on my bed. "Any plans for Thanksgiving?"
"I'm staying here," I told her. "No real point in going back home. I don't have enough money to fly, and the drive is so long, I'd get there, eat, and then have to drive right back. What about you?"
"Haven't decided yet," she said. "My parents sent me a ticket, but I'm not sure if I want to go or not. What about Jake?"
"He's going home," I said. "He only lives a few hours away. Plus, he's taking Lisa to meet his parents."
"So... You'll have the room to yourself for a few days?"
"Looks that way," I said. "Why?"
"No reason," Becky said. "I... Uh... I should get going. I have to be up early to take care of some things. But we'll hang out when I get back."
"Awesome," I said. She leaned over and kissed me before standing up and leaving the room.
The next day, I was woken up early as Jake was getting ready to leave.
"Shit, man," he said when I grunted as I sat up. "I didn't mean to wake you."
"Don't worry about it," I said as I stretched and scratched my head. "I should probably get up anyways. What time is it?"
"A few minutes to five," Jake said.
"Fuck that, I'm going back to sleep," I said and fell back onto my pillow as Jake chuckled.
"See you in a few days," I heard Jake say just as I fell back to sleep.
"WAKE UP!" someone shouted, causing me to jump up and fall out of bed. I hit the floor with a thud.
"What the fuck?!" I said as I pulled my blanket off my head and saw Andy and Amy standing there, laughing. The room was brightly lit since the blinds had been opened, letting the sun shine in. I looked at both of them, ready to kill for the sudden and startling wake up they had given me.
Amy shook her head and pointed to Andy while still laughing a little.
"You're dead," I said with a little laugh as I jumped up and chased him out into the hall. A few people who were walking by starting laughing, reminding me that I was only wearing my boxers.
"Morning," I said to them, slightly embarrassed, as I stood there and watched as Andy kept running. I turned and went back into my room to find Amy sitting on Jake's bed, smiling and shaking her head.
"I'd be careful," I said as I put on a pair of shorts. "Jake hasn't changed those sheets in a week."
"So?" Amy said.
"He and Lisa fucked in that bed two days ago," I said, causing her to jump off the bed and then sit on mine as she said, "I'll sit on the one that hasn't seen any action."
"Yeah, well," I said. "I think they fucked on my bed a few times as well, based on the wet spot I found."
Amy got up from my bed and started to lean against the dresser, then stopped and looked questioningly at me.
"Yeah, I have no idea," I said. She let out a little sigh of relief and leaned against the dresser.
"So what brings you here this morning?" I asked as I grabbed a shirt and put it on.
"Well," Amy said. "First of all, it's almost noon."
I looked at the clock next to my bed and saw that she was right.
"And second," she continued. "Andy and I are staying here during break. We really don't want to go home and deal with our parents fusing over us and getting all worried over anything we tell them. Especially Andy. Mom is totally going to try and baby him. She still thinks he should've done his last year of high school instead of skipping a grade and coming here. But with the offers he had, it would be stupid to turn them down."
"Yeah, just what is he majoring in?" I asked. "He's taking all these classes in different subjects, and some of them don't even match any known curriculum."
"He's..." Amy thought for a moment. "Actually, I really don't know. He's been really quiet about his work and his classes since we got here. All I know is that some foundation is paying for his education, and he has a job there waiting for him as soon as he finishes."
"Oh," I said.
"Anyways," Amy went on. "As I was saying, since Andy and I are staying here for break, we figured we'd see what you were up to."
"Not much," I said. "I'm staying as well. Too much of a hassle to go back home."
"Cool," Amy said. "Then you can join us."
"For what?" I asked.
"Andy and I are doing our own little Thanksgiving dinner," she said. "But instead of going through all the trouble of cooking, we're eating as much junk food as we can stomach. We're gonna start with IHOP for a late breakfast and then ordering a bunch of Chinese food that night while playing some Call of Duty."
"Sweet," I said as my cell phone started to ring. I hadn't played any video games since I left home and was looking forward to getting my frag on. "Count me in... Hello?"
"Hey," Becky said. "About time you answered?"
"Sorry," I said. "I kind of overslept this morning."
"Kind of?" Becky said with a little laugh. God, I loved that laugh. "Anyways, I just wanted you to know that I'm staying for the break."
"That's great," I said. "You can join us then."
"Us?" she asked.
"Yeah," I said. "Amy and Andy invited me to join them for the day, so now you can come to and all of us can hang out together."
"Oh," Becky said, sounding a little crestfallen. "I was kind of... No, yeah. That's cool. We can totally hang out with them a bit. But was a hoping for a little alone time for us."
"Alone time," I said and Amy raised her eyebrow.
"Yeah," Becky said. "You know. Just you and me."
"We can do that to," I said.
"Good," Becky said. "Because there's something I need to tell you... When we're alone."
"How about now?" I asked. "I'm alone now. Why don't you come over?" I motioned for Amy to leave the room. She just smiled to herself as she left.
"I can't now," Becky said. "I'm not even on campus right now. I'm doing a little shopping."
"How about tonight then?" I asked.
"Tonight would be great," she said. "Do you think we can go out to dinner tonight?"
"Sure," I said. "Where do you want to go?"
"There's a place I heard of that's about a twenty minute drive away," she said.
"Sounds good," I said. "I'll pick you up around five?"
