Ella smiled, feeling overwhelmingly better when the girl turned out to be decent. She had been so scared that this would turn into another Holly moment. Holly had been her last roommate and the one who threw a fit and got her kicked out. She hated how some perfect, rich snobs always seemed to get what they wanted. Ella's parents were well off, but she never acted like she ruled the world. Her mother was a lawyer and her father was a doctor. They were workaholics, but they had a good family dynamic.
"Sorry, I was only quiet because I saw you were reading. Some people will start wars if you interrupt." She smiled, though it turned into a small smirk. "I am one of those people. Reading is..." She trailed off, blushing, the crimson color a huge contrast to her naturally pale skin. "I'm rambling, aren't I?"
She heard the rest of the girl's question and nodded. "Yep, I guess so. My last roommate didn't agree with sharing her breathing space with someone who dressed outside the cookie cutter standard this school seems to have." Her eyes widened, because that sounded a little harsh. She shook her head. "I mean no offense, not that you are one of them." She gave the girl an open up and down look. Reviera had style, maybe not as extreme as Ella, but she still seemed like an individual. Being cute did not hurt, either.
"Oh sure, thanks. All my boxes are packed and waiting to be carried from my old dorm." She looked down at the black and pink Hello Kitty watch she was wearing. It was going on 3pm and Holly was most likely already out with her older boyfriend. The boyfriend Ella had to hear about 24/7. That is all the girl ever wanted to talk about. "It's not a long walk from here, so shouldn't take more than a few trips. Are you sure you don't mind?"
