Tina closed here eyes and banged her head against the key board. Eight point fuck this. Just when she was getting hot and heavy with an online chatter when the fucker decided to disconnect. Well great, just great. She looked at the clock one thirty. She was not in the mood for this. She tried to swallow her anger and vented all on the keyboard by angrily punching keys. Hell. She did not need this. She stood and clutched her robe tighter. I hate the computer. I hate the internet, she thought, sick demented people created this. She went to the kitchen to brew some coffee. She looked in the cabinet. Great she thought, out of vanilla roast. She needed caffeine. She earned it from sitting hours on end blazing through the internet. Maybe she had a coke or something in the Fridge. She looked in. Nope notta. She groaned. It was late, her roommate and half the floor was gone to a wild frat party so no one was her to help her with her caffeine fix. Whew bloody hoo.
She had turned down the party of the year to stay home and study. Professor Morgan better appreciate this, she mused. Who the hell cares about pigmy history anyway? She'd originally gone on line to get some information but out of sure boredom, she logged on to chat and twelve chat rooms and countless people later she found someone to talk to.
Granted it wasn’t the most intelligent conversation but who cared she just needed some one to talk to. She slammed the fridge door. Her palate craved either something sweet of something to keep her cool. Maybe sweet and pert Becky was in.
She was taking a chance and she knew it but she still walked out of her dorm room to her neighbor’s room. She knocked on the door. Becky and her roommate were probably already at the party. She knocked harder. “Hold on damn it! I said I was coming!” Tina dropped her hand. “I’m sorry I didn’t hear you.” She shouted back through her door. She heard the click of locks and watched as the door swing open. “Hey Becky I was wondering. . .” She faded off because the girl wasn’t Becky and it sure as hell wasn’t Myra so by process of elimination it had to be their new roommate. She didn’t know the girl’s name though. The girl was the most beautiful girl ever. Tina was working hard on a art minor and knew beauty when she saw it. Her body was perfect symmetry. Her breast her high and her waist was narrow and her hips were round and full. Her face was almost overkill in its magnificence, dark eyes and black hair and not a single blemish to mar her perfect satin brown skin. Tina frowned; it was almost unfair that one woman could be this gorgeous. Maybe she’s a complete idiot and it will equal it off. Tina looked at the black woman in her complete nudity. She didn’t have to be attracted to her to know she was perfect and had that flighty look that let you know she knew it. She shook her head and realized that she was staring. She stared straight down at the ground and saw the tapping of her manicured toes. “Uh, sorry, I was just wondering if you had a couple of scoops of coffee that I could borrow.”
The toes stop tapping, “Sure, what ever.” Tina breathed a sigh of relief. Being around a naked woman was not a favorite past time of hers. She looked up the woman wasn’t naked; she just had her robe open. She walked in after her and prayed that she would tie the sash. She glanced around Becky’s room; bean bag chair a bubble chair and a table what a flair for decoration.
“Never let it be said that Rebecca and Myra aren’t one to conform to the declining times.” She mumbled under her breath. The girl came back with a plastic cup half full with coffee. She handed it to her. Thankfully the robe was closed. “What did you say?” she asked.
“Nothing. Thanks.” Tina said as she accepted the coffee. She walked out the apartment and noticed the girl waited until she made it into her own room. “I owe you.” Tina brewed the coffee needing the stimulant to keep her up.
Two hours and three cups later she was wide awake and so deep in the books that the ringing phone made her jump. “Hello?”
“Yeah, Tina, it’s Jan. I won’t be home tonight okay. I have uhm plans.”
She smiled she was even sure she heard Jan wink.
“Got a box full and the morning after pill.”
“Cool have a blast.”
“You know I will.”
She heard the click of Jan’s cell and hung up the phone. Jeez the room seemed lonely without her friend. Suddenly she saw monsters and killers and every horror movie she saw with her boyfriend came to her mind. She hugged her self trying to force them from her imagination. She leaned back in the chair and was resolved to finish the report. The loud rapping on the door made her jump nearly a foot in the air. After her heart calmed down she realized how crazy she was. Probably Carol wanting some aspirin or something.
She walked over to the door and opened it. The girl that gave her coffee. “Yeah ah can I help you?”
She looked a little shy. An unnerving quality for some one who had appeared naked at the front door. “Can I crash here? Rebecca and Myra are home and are throwing up every where. I won’t be able to sleep with that.” Tina looked at the girl. “I don’t know.” The girl suddenly paled “Oh shit, coming to the door naked was like the biggest no-no huh.” Tina looked at her and saw that she was embarrassed and rushed to reassure her. “It’s nothing like that. I just don’t have any where for you to sleep.”
“I can’t even crash on the couch?”
