This is my first time writing a story. please let me know what you think!
This was not how I expected to spend spring break, locked in my apartment with my roommate for 14 days. We were told we can't leave until the incubation period for this virus was over. I need to think positive to get through this, at least I have my roommate David.
A little bit about David and I. My name is Adam and I am 5ft 11inches and about 200 pounds. I have red hair and I am pasty white. It's unfortunate since we live in the south. You could describe me as a frat boy with a dad bod. I would be in better shape if it wasn't for all the beer I drink. David on the other hand has a natural tan. He has dark hair and he has a very hairy chest. He is slightly shorter than me and about my same build and style.
David and I were notified this morning that we had come in contact with a person diagnosed with COVID-19. David, John, and I were working closely in a group project for our chemistry class. When John started feeling sick with a fever and cough, we assumed he had the Flu. We soon found out he was the first person at our university diagnosed with the virus.
University officials told David and I we couldn't leave the apartment for 14 days while we waited for the incubation period for the virus to be over. I understand this was to stop the spread of the infection in case we had it, but this was ridiculous.
The worst part about this whole situation was the lack of sex I would be having. I have been dating my girlfriend Sam for over a year now and we had sex as much as possible. She went home early for spring break so it's already been 3 days since I have seen her. Too long in my opinion. I needed to call her and tell her what happened.
"Hey babe, you won't believe what has happened since you left."
"What's wrong, you seem worried."
"The clinic just called me to tell David and I that we are being quarantined for 14 days because John has the virus."
"I told you he didn't have the flu, you should have listened to me," she gloated
