Beck
This year at Creepin U, I only have three priorities: get through my classes, play baseball, and work enough to make money for school. I don’t have time for distractions, drama, and especially not hookups. Then I find out my new roommate is the one person I never expected to see again, and I know I’m screwed. After ghosting Talon last year, I told myself it was nothing more than a hookup. And it wasn’t. I had too much going on back then, and I have even more going on now. But living with him makes forgetting impossible. We’re sharing a small space, and the more time I spend with him, the more I want a second chance to prove I’m not the guy he thinks I am.

Getting ghosted hurts. But getting ghosted by the person who’s your new roommate is worse. But he doesn’t need to know that, so I lie. I tell him that night meant nothing and that I’ve moved on. But when he comes back asking for another night together, I can’t help but agree. No feelings, no expectations, only hooking up. But the more I try to prove to him and myself that it means nothing, the harder it is to ignore my feelings. Maybe the biggest mistake wasn’t hooking up again? Maybe it was believing that we could do it again without catching feelings.

You’re formally readmitted to Creelin University, known locally as “Creepin U.” The only things wilder than the monsters prowling around campus are the spicy male/male stories unfolding between classes. More information coming soon about Anchored To You.
