this here?” she pleaded with me, indicating her heavy bag.
     
    I shrugged. “Sure. It’s pretty safe around here.”
     
    Sarah left her bag leaning up against the wall and then followed me back down the winding hallway to Liam’s office.
     
    “I can’t believe it. I’m an idiot,” I apologized to her. “You’re exhausted and probably just want to sleep after a transatlantic flight.”
     
    “What do you think I did for the 5 hours the cute boy ignored me?” she asked.
     
    “Right… Here we are.” I walked into Liam’s outer office, Sarah in tow. I nodded to the secretary, who had long stopped trying to get me to wait, and knocked on Liam’s door twice and then walked in.
     
    He was on the phone, his elbows on the desk as he listened with a bored expression to whoever was on the other end. Seeing me, he gave me a smile and held up two fingers. I nodded, leaning up against the wall, and turned my head to Sarah.
     
    “Uh … huh… huh… Yes, alright, I’ll do that. Thank you for the call.” Liam finally hung up and turned his attention to us. “Amy?”
     
    “Hey. I lost Sarah’s key because I’m dumb. You have a spare, right? And uh… This is Sarah, by the way.”
     
    “It’s nice to meet you .” Liam extended his hand across the desk, standing up. Sarah reached to shake it. Their hands met and I saw an odd expression cross Liam’s face, just for a fraction of a second. And then the smile returned.
     
    “Sarah, how nice to finally meet you. Your application was stunning.”
     
    “It’s nice to meet you, too,” she replied. “You’re stunning!”
     
    I choked.
     
    “Sarah!”
     
    But Liam only grinned as he came out from behind the desk and opened a cabinet on the wall, which had several keys hanging inside of it.
     
    “It’s ok, Amy, that’s the least harmful thing I’ve heard this term. It’s like the admission office purposely found people who were my fans. It’s worse this year than ever before.”
     
    “Well, we did make a huge splash with Beauty and the Beast,” I pointed out. “If anyone had forgotten about you, it kind of brought you back to fame. You think I should watch my back in the hall?”
     
    “No more than usual.” He winked at me, handing me a master key for the dorms on our floor. “You can use that for now until we can get a proper one cut for you. Maybe Sarah should hold it.”
     
    “Hey!” I exclaimed. “I’m responsible.”
     
    “Indeed you are.” He grinned at me. “I’ll see you at dinner. Around 5’ish?”
     
    “Sure .” I reached up to give him a kiss on the cheek. He turned, a mischievous grin on his face, and kissed me on the lips.
     
    I blushed, lower ing back down from my tip toes. “See you later.”
     
    “Bye girls,” he said, returning to his desk.
     
    Grabbing Sarah’s wrist and applying a little force, I dragged her from the room. She could barely contain herself.
     
    “That was awesome!” she exclaimed, as soon as we were in the hallway.
     
    “He’s not that cool,” I replied. “He leaves towels on the floor after the shower and plates of food lying around. He also forgets to pick up lettuce every time he grocery shops.”
     
    “Can I join you two on your dinner date? I don’t mind being a third wheel!”
     
    “No!” I giggled, shaking my head. “But if you unpack fast enough, I’ll take you out shopping. There’s a bunch of stuff you need to see that they only sell around here. Or we can go to a movie tonight. After dark. After Liam… ya know.”
     
    She nodded, grabbing her suitcase again as I fit the key in the lock, and swung open her door. Identical to mine, with the makeup mirror and small dance floor, Sarah gasped.
     
    “This is going to be amazing!”
     
    I watched my best friend explore her room. I felt ecstatic. The final piece of the puzzle was in place. I was finally home.
     

Chapter 4: Liam
     
     
     
    I had thought that I felt something odd when I shook Sarah’s hand,
