I'm kinda new to writing and I wanted to share my first story with you.\u0026nbsp; I have uploaded part one and part two, and I'd like to know what you think.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\\*\\*\\*\n\nPart One\n\n[Part Two](%5C)\n\n[Part Three](%5C)\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Crap!\u0026nbsp; I'm late for class!\"\u0026nbsp; That's me.\u0026nbsp; Always late.\u0026nbsp; It was the first day of my junior year of college at Reno University.\u0026nbsp; For some reason I still can't sleep the night before the first day.\u0026nbsp; But I digress...\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I jump out of my bed, quickly find a nice shirt and some nice jeans to wear, and rush out the door in record time.\u0026nbsp; As I'm leaving my room I see my roommate and best friend Adam standing in the kitchen eating some eggs.\u0026nbsp; Adam is a tall thin red fox, and he was standing there in nothing but his boxers.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Can you eat with clothes on?\" I quip to him.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Aren't you late for class, Phil?\" Adam retorted.\u0026nbsp; Too late though, I was already on my way out of the front door.\u0026nbsp; I practically ran down the street and across campus to my first class, Calculus.\u0026nbsp; I walk in and see a free seat near the window.\u0026nbsp; I walk over to it and collapse into it.\u0026nbsp; After taking a minute to catch my breath, I take a look around the room.\u0026nbsp; As I thought, after two years into my major, most of the people in the class are people that I've already had classes with.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Class passes by quickly, I've always been pretty good at math, and this semester seemed to be particularly easy.\u0026nbsp; After class ends, I have to run across campus again to get to my next class.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"This is crazy,\" I thought to myself.\u0026nbsp; \"Why would they have classes this far apart with only 10 minutes to get there?!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I stop in the bathroom quickly.\u0026nbsp; As I'm washing my hands, I look up and see a dark blue wolf with light blue accents and white ears in the mirror.\u0026nbsp; I take a closer look and I see that I have bedfur still.\u0026nbsp; I look down and see that at least the blue fur on top of my tail and the white underneath looks fine.\u0026nbsp;\n\nAgain, I'm slightly late to my next class.\u0026nbsp; The chalkboard in the front of the room says \"COMPUTER SCIENCE 326.\"\u0026nbsp; This building is so old it has a chalkboard!\u0026nbsp; The chairs also feel like they've been here as long as the building has.\u0026nbsp; As I try to find a comfortable way to sit, the professor walks in.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Listen up.\u0026nbsp; This class will not be easy.\u0026nbsp; I am not trying to scare you, in fact I'm here to help you.\u0026nbsp; For you Computer Science majors, this is the make or break class.\u0026nbsp; Please try to keep up.\u0026nbsp; Before I go any farther, I want you to find a study buddy to help you through this class.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I look to the guy to my right and see that he's already pairing up with someone so I turn to my left, and I see her.\u0026nbsp; The most beautiful wolf in the room.\u0026nbsp; She has light blue fur with purple highlights and white ears too.\u0026nbsp; I start to wonder why I've never seen this girl before, but she interrupts my thoughts.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Hey wanna be my study buddy?\u0026nbsp; I just transferred here from Las Vegas and I'm not quite used to the teaching style here,\" she said in her soft voice.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Sure.\u0026nbsp; I'm Phil, what's your name?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Heather.\u0026nbsp; I-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Okay, that's been enough time!\" the professor said.\u0026nbsp; \"Time to get started on today's lesson, Data Structures...\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Computer Science has always been my favorite class, which is a good thing since I'm a CS major, but this class was my favorite of all.\u0026nbsp; The professor, a large white polar bear named Dr. Herald, was really nice, and made the subject material really interesting.\u0026nbsp; We did code by hand and then walked through it with the rest of the class.\u0026nbsp; I even got a \"Good job, Phil!\" from the professor.\u0026nbsp; When it was time to leave, I was actually sad the class was ending.\u0026nbsp; Heather and I swapped information and then left to do our own things.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I was meeting up with Adam at the university cafeteria, but I was a little early so I pulled out my computer science book and started my homework.\u0026nbsp; I continued for a while until I was interrupted by Adam.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Hey Phil!\u0026nbsp; You been here long?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Yeah, not to worry I got most of my CS homework done.\u0026nbsp; You hungry?\"\u0026nbsp; I asked.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"When am I not?\" Adam retorted.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; We went inside and got our food, paid and sat down.\u0026nbsp; We started to tell each other about our days and then I got to the part about Heather.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Wait, did you say you finally found a girl?\" Adam joked.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Haha, very funny.\u0026nbsp; I told you, we are just study buddies.\u0026nbsp; Actually I should get a hold of her to see if she needs help on that homework, it was pretty hard.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"I don't get why you like CS, it's just boring.\u0026nbsp; Now, political science, that's cool.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Yeah, only if you never want to get a job after graduation,\" I quipped back.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Adam pretended to get mad and we sat for a few minutes finishing up our meal in silence.\u0026nbsp; When we finished we got up, said goodbye and headed in separate directions.\u0026nbsp; Adam still had one more class, but I went home.\u0026nbsp; The whole way home I kept thinking about Heather.\u0026nbsp; Just couldn't get her out of my mind.\u0026nbsp; She was so beautiful.\u0026nbsp; Her fur was a beautiful color and looked so soft...\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I shook my head.\u0026nbsp; I shouldn't even be thinking about her that way.\u0026nbsp; We are just study buddies and that's that.\u0026nbsp; She probably isn't even into guys like me.\u0026nbsp; I'm a nerd, she's probably used to being with jocks.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; I get home, threw my bag onto my bed and booted up my computer.\u0026nbsp; I want to send Heather a quick message before I start on the rest of my homework.\u0026nbsp; I quickly let her know that I am free if she wanted to get together to talk about the homework and I was just about done with it.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; When I finish with that, I pull out my calculus book and start that homework.\u0026nbsp; After about an hour I finish up and then flop onto my bed to take a nap.\u0026nbsp; I'm just about to drift off when I hear the front door open and close, so I decide to go out and make sure that Adam was okay.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Hey buddy, what's up?\" I asked him.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Not much, just super ready for a break.\u0026nbsp; Today was hell.\u0026nbsp; My last class went over by twenty-five minutes because the professor took forever to explain everything!\" Adam said.\u0026nbsp; \"I'm going to take a nap now, can you wake me in a couple hours?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Yeah, I will.\u0026nbsp; Have a good nap!\" I said as he walked towards his room and closed the door.\u0026nbsp; I went back to my room and got onto my computer to see if Heather messaged me back.\u0026nbsp; She did.\u0026nbsp; It said \"Sorry, not tonight.\u0026nbsp; Boy issues.\"\u0026nbsp; Damn.\u0026nbsp; She had a boyfriend.\u0026nbsp; My ears drooped and I was actually kinda sad.\u0026nbsp; I decided to retry that nap that I failed in taking earlier to get her out of my mind.\u0026nbsp; I climbed up onto my bed, set an alarm on my phone and passed out.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; The next thing I knew, my alarm went off.\u0026nbsp; I rolled over and turned it off.\u0026nbsp; I didn't want to get up, but I needed to eat and wake Adam up.\u0026nbsp; I got up, went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror.\u0026nbsp; I realized my bedfur was even worse, so I combed out my fur until it stayed where it was supposed to.\u0026nbsp; I then went and woke up Adam.\u0026nbsp; He was lying on top of his covers in nothing but his boxers again.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Is it already time to wake up?\"\u0026nbsp; he said.\u0026nbsp; \"It feels like I just laid down!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Yeah, now wake up.\u0026nbsp; I'll order a pizza.\u0026nbsp; Get some clothes on before coming out here!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; About a half hour later the pizza shows up.\u0026nbsp; I ordered my favorite, half pepperoni and half hawaiian.\u0026nbsp; Adam dug right in, grabbing four pieces and putting them onto his plate and ate them by the time I had time to eat one and a half slices.\u0026nbsp; Adam belched to announce he was done and he headed back to his room for homework.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Since I was done, I just surfed the net for a while.\u0026nbsp; I looked over and suddenly it was midnight!\u0026nbsp; I was about to log off my computer and head off to bed when I saw I had a new instant message.\u0026nbsp; It was from Heather.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Heather: Hey you still up?\u0026nbsp; I need someone to talk to.\u0026nbsp; I know we barely know each other, but no one else is up.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Me: Yeah, I'm here.\u0026nbsp; What's going on?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Heather: It's my ex... he followed me from Vegas and tried to break into my apartment.\u0026nbsp; I had to call the police.\u0026nbsp; I'm just a little rattled I guess.\"\u0026nbsp; So I guess she doesn't have a boyfriend.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Me: I'm sorry... Is there anything I can do?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Heather: Want to go get milkshakes?\u0026nbsp; I can't sleep and it would be nice to have the company.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Me: Of course, wanna go to that place downtown with those awful good burgers?\u0026nbsp; I hear they have even better shakes.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \"Heather: Yeah that sounds good.\u0026nbsp; Thanks Phil.\u0026nbsp; You're so sweet.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; So I headed out the door to meet with Heather.\u0026nbsp; I would be paying for it the next day, as I was already pretty tired.\u0026nbsp; I didn't care though, she was worth the lack of sleep.\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
