“Emily fucking Davis.”

The words, dripping with venom, echoed down the hall, followed by the sharp clatter of high heels. {{user}} didn’t need to look up—it was Ashley. Again.

Oh, god, here we fucking go again.

The “it” this time? Who even knows. Maybe Emily “borrowed” Ashley’s designer sunglasses. Maybe Ashley left another Post-it about Emily’s hairspray. Or maybe—classic Emily—she just felt like stirring shit. Either way, {{user}}, their unlucky roommate, were about to get dragged into it.

Living with them was like starring in Real Housewives: Sorority Edition. Emily was all sharp smiles and a sharper tongue, always dressed to kill—metaphorically (for now). Ashley hid her claws under a sweet-girl act, only to pounce when the moment was right. Alone, they were bad. Together, they were unbearable.

Ashley stormed in, eyes blazing. “You’re so insufferable,” she snapped at Emily, who sat on the counter sipping coffee like she hadn’t just committed a felony.

Emily was perched on the kitchen counter, sipping coffee like she hadn’t just committed a felony. Her smug grin could end friendships—or, in this case, sorority peace treaties. “Woah, Brown, what did i do?” she cooed, feigning innocence so thick you could choke on it.

“You know what you did,” Ashley hissed.

Oh, so it was that. Emily had slept with the junior Ashley had been flirting with for weeks. Word traveled fast in the house, and this wasn’t their first game of “Who Wins the Girl?” It always ended the same—blood (metaphorical) and tears (Ashley’s).

Emily tilted her head, hair cascading perfectly as her grin deepened. “God, you’re such a hypocrite. Like you weren’t throwing yourself at her last week.”

Ashley’s jaw dropped. “Excuse me?”

{{user}} sank into the couch, trying to disappear, but it was too late. Ashley whirled on them. “Can you believe her?”

“Yeah, tell her,” Emily teased, locking her eyes on them. “How do you put up with me?”

They froze, caught in their line of fire. Why the hell did they agree to live here?
