Softball College Strike Out (Private for Livingbylies)

[Fluffybuttwannabe]

Jess was an ordinary girl in college. It was a few months into her first fall semester, and so far things had been going good. She was here on an academic scholarship, and studied regularly. She was maintaining B's and A's, and had never missed a class. Though, there had been a few close calls with her eight o'clock Monday, Wednesday and Friday course, namely because of her roommate.

Her roommate was an absolute pain. She constantly had friends and boys over in the room late at night, watching TV, and talking. Oh, the giggling, it was enough to drive her crazy. Studying wasn't much of an issue, she spent those long hours at the library, but it was coming back to her room that she hated. When she got to her room, she almost always found her roommate's clothes spread out on her bed, and her roommate friends watching something stupid on the television. This annoyed her considerably, especially when she tried to get to sleep at a reasonable hour. "One day," She thought, as she tried to tune out her roommate. "One day, she'll push me too far."

"Hey! Hey!" Molly said, kicking her roomates top bunk to get her attention. "Wake up! What are you doing asleep, it's only like ten thirty!" She looked at her phone to check the time. "Well... Eleven thirty. Close enough. I just talked to Sarah who said that Jenny told her that Kyla was having a party at her parents house! Are you in? It's like five minutes away and it's going to be LEGENDARY!"

She giggled, setting her laptop aside before standing up so she was level with the top bunk wearing nothing but her blanket. She reached up and tugged on Jess's arm. "C'mon, it's a Tuesday night, what else are you gonna be doing? Studying?" She laughed, and then shrugged, tossing her blanket on her bed and turning to dig through the nearest dresser for an outfit. (It was Jess's dresser.) Finding some choice clothes, she started getting dressed. "I hear there's a keg, and her parents are out of town for like a week so we don't have to worry about making a mess. You're in, right? You have to be in." She beamed at her roomate one last time, bubbling excitement and a complete lack of understanding as to how she could be annoying Jess right now.

Jess yawned and said, "Molly, I have a test coming up and I need to study. You go ahead without me." Despite her roommate being a complete air headed bitch, Jess still was at least civil with her and her desires. But, she was not going off campus, this late at night, to get drunk at some party. "I'm busy doing homework," She stated, before turning her attention back to her laptop computer. She resumed typing her essay, deciding not to touch upon that fact that her roommate just stole her clothes, without asking.

But, in the back of her mind, she thought of an idea. Her roommate always came back completely drunk from these parties. "Perhaps I can use that to impliment that idea I've been thinking about." She had been sitting on her bed since coming back to her room, and wasn't planning on leaving till tomorrow. She was wearing only a pink nighty, and her brown hair was straight as can be. She had already showered earlier, and was in no state to go out and party anyway. Besides, the girls Molly hung out with were complete jerks, and she had no intention to spend any more time with them then she was already forced to. She didn't even think they knew her name.

[PeculiarChangeling]

"Oh, come on!" Molly complained, still nagging now that she was fully dressed in Jess's most party-esque clothes. "You don't need to study, you're like a genius or something!" Getting an idea of her own, she moved to the wall and unplugged Jess's laptop. "There, now that your computer is dead you have to get up and come with... me... Right." She had forgotten. "Laptop. Battery. That trick works a lot better when you're on a desktop computer." Sighing, she left the cable unplugged, grabbed her phone, forgot her keys, and waved goodbye. "You know where to find me if you're feeling a little less square later!" She called, heading out the door.

The dorm room was peaceful for about six hours, until a completely shitfaced Molly started pounding on the door at four in the morning. "Jess, lmemme in! If'rgot mykeyth!" She slurred.

[Fluffybuttwannabe]

"Bitch," She thought, knowing she'd have to get up now and re-plug in her computer. "Oh well, it'll all be worth it in the end."

She had been asleep when her roommate came back. Groaning, she got up, and walked over to the door. But before she got out of bed, she flipped a switch on a tape recorder under her pillow, walking over to the door. "How was the party," She asked, letting her roommate in, holding back her anger. She just needed documentation of her roommate's drunkenness, and her plan would be complete.

[PeculiarChangeling]

"Oh, it was TOTALLY awesome!" Molly said. "This guy was like 'There's no way you're eighteen and I was like YEAH! and he was like 'woah' and so we hooked up, and then there was like a ton of dancing. Like, SO MUCH dancing it was great!" Her (Jess's) clothing were stained with stale beer and sweat from hours of dancing and other recreation activities, and she looked exhausted. In spite of it all, though, she had a huge grin plastered on her face. "You totally missed out! Plus, the cops showed up at like three but we were all mostly passed out by then so there were only like six of us awake, and you know Tony he can hold his liquor like a keg so he went and asked them what the problem was and it was hilarious! I guess you had to be there..." She trailed off, blinking a few moments before yawning.

Stumbling inside, she climbed up the ladder and collapsed onto Jess's bed without taking off her clothes, passing out almost as soon as her head hit the pillows, snoring and drooling onto the sheets.

[Fluffybuttwannabe]

She growled, and got a camera, snapping a picture of her drooling unconscious roommate. "On my bed too," She said with a scowl. "At least I have all the evidence I need to change this," She thought, reaching up and yanking the tape recorder from under her pillow. Looking for somewhere to sleep, she decided she didn't have a choice and climbed into her roommate's bed falling asleep.

Waking up the next morning for class, she quickly got dressed, and turned to find her roommate still asleep. "No way she'll be up for her nine o'clock," She thought as she grabbed her books, going down to the cafe for breakfast.

[PeculiarChangeling]

At precisely eight fifty nine, Molly's internal clock began blaring. She rolled out of bed, barely catching herself when she realized she was up much higher in the air than usual. She was starved and she had to pee, but she knew she'd be late for class if she stopped for anything. So, she grabbed a long jacket to cover her dirty clothes and staggered out the door. It was a short run across the street to class, and while she arrived without books or anything to take notes with, she was technically on-time.

Of course, she was too hungover to pay attention and ended up snoring in the back of the classroom for most of the lesson, but that was aside the point. She showed up!

They were one of the looking ones, and had a bathroom in their own room. It was rare for dormrooms, but they had been lucky enough to draw a good number when they were giving out rooms, and had gotten one.

Jess knew her roommate's class ended at 10:15, and as a result was waiting in the room when he roommate came in. She had cleaned up her sheets when she got back from class, and had put fresh ones on. Sitting on the top of the bunks, she awaited her roommates return, the printed out picture of her the night before and the recorder laying next to her.

[PeculiarChangeling]

Molly stumbled in wearing dark sunglasses she had procured somewhere, still hungover and feeling positively terrible. She had two hours before lunch, and another forty five minutes before an actual class, so she intended to take a nap, a shower, a nap, and then another nap. And maybe one more nap. Napping would be involved.

"Hey," She said to Jess blearily, as she finally started getting undressed from her party clothes. "What's up?" She noticed the pictures on the bed, and stared at them confused. "Uh, dude, what the hell? You took pictures of me while I was sleeping? That's not cool."
