pop. “Oh, yes. Kaylee. The best of friends.” She didn’t try to hide the sarcasm in her voice. Charlie looked like mischief. Only trouble could come out of that.
    “Well, come on. Our suite is right down here. 3J,” Kaylee said as she strolled further up the hallway, her heels clacking loudly against the bright linoleum floor.
    “My home away from home!” Charlie pronounced loudly.
    Groaning louder than she meant to, Ashley grabbed her stuff again and followed her cousin up the hallway. “I foresee a lot of nights out in my future,” she mumbled.

    “Out here is our living room,” Kaylee explained non-chalantly with a wave of her hand. “It’s nothing to write home about. My dad installed the 44-inch flat screen on the wall. We have HBO, Cinemax, Starz and Netflix. Oh! Plus, thanks to Charlie boy, Daddy sprung for an Xbox gold account.”
    Charlie laughed loudly as he held up a hand for Ashley to slap, “Sa-weet! Am I right?”
    Ashley stared at Charlie’s hand and forced herself to stop rolling her eyes. She needed to be more discrete. Deciding she needed to play nice, she met Charlie’s hand with her own, giving him the high five he wanted. She slapped it hard, leaving his palm red. She laughed as Charlie shook off the pain.
    Nothing to write home about, huh? This is nicer than my living room at home . She gazed around the surprisingly spacious room. Weren’t dorm rooms supposed to be compact? My uncle’s wrapped around Kaylee’s little finger. He clearly shelled out a lot of cash for his princess’ comfort.
    “How do you get any studying done with all this electronic goodness?” she asked as she eyed up the TV, the Xbox, and all the various other devices strewn around the living room.
    “Huh?” Kaylee replied dumbly, clearly not understanding where her cousin was coming from. “It’s just a smart TV, an Xbox and an iPod dock. Totes not a big deal, cuz.”
    “It puts my cell phone to shame.” She knew she sounded miserable, but this was ridiculous. Way too over the top.
    “You watch TV on your cell?” Charlie asked in a condescending tone.
    “Well yeah… Mom doesn’t believe in having TV in the house. She thought it was a distraction.”
    “From what?” Charlie stretched his arm over the back of the couch, inviting her to join him.
    Ashley stayed standing. “From everything.”
    “And to think that your momma and my momma are sisters,” Kaylee said with a laugh.
    The differences were certainly remarkable . Ashley moved past the neatly arranged sofas and followed Kaylee into the kitchenette. Charlie got up and followed too, still dressed in only his bath towel.
    Lifting an eyebrow saucily at him, Ashley asked, “Don’t you want to put on some shorts or something?”
    “Am I making you uncomfortable?” Charlie smirked, a lame attempt at flirting.
    Kaylee laughed loudly. Apparently everything Charlie did was a hoot.
    Without a blink, Ashley replied in a firm tone of voice, “Yes. You are… and that’s not a compliment.”
    “Hooo! We’ve got a firecracker, Kay!” Charlie clapped his hands and rubbed them together. “All right ladies, I’ll be right back with some clothes. Don’t want to get kicked out or whipped by the freshman.”
    “Thank bloody goodness,” Ashley mumbled under her breath, not loud enough for her cousin, or her dim-witted boyfriend to hear. She watched in surprise as Charlie turned, not out of the suite, but into a bedroom just down the hallway. Hopefully to Kaylee’s bedroom.
    Oh, you’ve got to be shitting me. Ashley groaned.
    Kaylee appeared completely unaware. “So! We have a little kitchenette. No stove, but there is a micro fridge, a heavy duty microwave, and all the mac and cheese you can eat.”
    “Yum…” Ashley replied, not knowing if her cousin knew mac and cheese was her go-to food of choice. She could be offered a prime rib or a hot bowl of macaroni and cheese, and Ashley would always choose the latter.
    Kaylee continued, “We
