Fordham University, New York

Your first semester at a brand new college.. you look up at the main building with wide eyes, knowing your last 13 years of education brought you to this very spot. Those restless nights of studying and working towards the grades finally paid off as you stare at the vast expanse of red bricks.

You hadn’t really gotten along with new students.. not the ones you met at your orientation. They seemed relatively clique-y, especially for new students. You assume they must have known each other previously, surely.. or perhaps you’re just not as outgoing as the others. You’re snapped out of your thoughts as the bell rings, signifying the end if your lecture.. you leave the classroom, books in hand.. your mind wandering again.

That’s when you accidentally collided with her.. you hit the ground with a thud, your books falling by your feet. The tall blonde gasps, quickly offering you a hand..

“Shit! Oh god I’m sorry, I was in my own world there.. I’m Lizzy, here- let me help you up.. you are?”
