《Flatmates》2
Advertisement
Three weeks later, and I am pulling my suitcases out of the back of my taxi. I pay the driver, and head towards the massive apartment tower in front of me. I double check the address on my phone as I go - this is definitely the place.
I am nervous beyond words. I am literally moving in with two complete strangers 300 miles from home. I am not usually a risk taker so this is a massive deal for me.
I stand in the lift as it ascends, trying to catch my breath and calm my heart rate down. The lift comes to a stop and the doors open, so I grab my suitcases and stumble out into the hallway. I find the door to the apartment and just stand there, too scared to knock.
What if they don't like me? I have never seen Georges face either, so thats another factor to my anxiety. What if they both hate me, and this has all been a massive mistake?
Suddenly, too quickly for me to react, the door flies open and a body smacks straight into me.
'Whoa shit, sorry' I hear a Geordie voice say as I hit the floor. 'Whoa I am so sorry,' it says again, as I feel a hand grab mine and another on my shoulder, helping me to get back onto my feet.
'No, im sorry' I whisper, embarrassment turning my cheeks a deep shade of red. 'Thank you I add' letting go of his hand and finally looking up to his face. I recognise him, but I am not sure why.
'Will' he holds out his hand for me to shake and I take it.
'Jess' I mumble, still embarrassed.
'Oh you are the new room mate right? Why were you just stood by the door?' Will asks.

'I..I was about to knock.' I stumble over my words, not even convincing myself.
'Hey, come with me' Will pushes the door back open and grabs my hand and one of my suitcases, pulling me with him into my new apartment.
'Lads look who I found' he calls as two good looking lads appear in a door way.
***
I don't know why I was so terrified as both of the lads turned out to be lovely. Will stayed a while too, and I feel like I have definitely made a new friend in him.
Alex was shy, but I am sure he would eventually come out of his shell. He was better looking in person too - living with him was going to be.. interesting. I have never been well known for my self restraint when it came to the opposite sex.
And then of course there was George. Now I have never been a big YouTube fan, but I did of course check them both out before moving in with them. I wanted to know what they were all about. I knew George had a pretty sexy voice, but his face. Oh my god his face. It was like a work of art! Why he hides behind a mask I will never know, because he is drop dead gorgeous.
Living here is going to really take some self restraint with two such good looking lads.

America has sealed itself off from the outside world, and inside its borders, a revolution rages.All it took was one incredible little machine. That machine turned into two, then four, then eight... like a virus, the replicators spread.As a work of oral history, The Good Crash features over 50 interviews with key witnesses to the events of 2027. The text is rendered in the words used by the interviewees themselves, with light editing for clarity and concision. As such, the book contains language and themes that are not appropriate for children.By capturing the voices to the people at the very root of the revolution, journalist and historian R. Vondersnitch has traced the origins and aftermath of the replicators' rapid spread. Crucially, the book also includes perspectives and testimony from those who attempted to stop the spread of the reps. "Some of these are heroes, too, in their own ways," the author writes in the book's introductory note.
