Let's take a shower.

Alice should be at her job right about now, so there shouldn't be any need to worry. Besides, later tonight you'll have to be ready for your new job yourself, and you wouldn't want to leave a terrible first impression on the first day.

You should definitely remember to thank her later for sharing her personal stash of champagne with you though.

So, you head to your room prepared your clothes and a towel, before heading to the bathroom.

Your mind lingers a bit on Alice, and how you appreciated her for being there with you all these years.

Alice is short-haired blonde girl that has eyes the color of crystal blue. She was pretty average height, measuring up to 5'6" tall. She has a strange affinity for the color blue, for she always has to be wearing something that has that color. Whether it be a headband, a shirt, a skirt, shoes, if she's not wearing something blue, she's gonna find out a way to make it work with blue.

She's very attractive, and you're quite embarrassed to admit that you kinda sorta have this crush on her that you've kept secret since the two of you first met.

It all started with you finding a place to live, as you had just recently moved out of your home town and into the city life. You happened to come across a flyer that told you of a resident who was in dire need of a roommate to help share paying rent for an apartment. With no better idea or lead, you decided to go to this apartment in order to check the place out.

That was when you met her for the first time. A spunky and cute blonde girl with a young rockin' body that reminded you of your teenage high school years when you were surrounded by hot girls during a time when your hormones were out of control.

While the place itself was mediocre, you would have been insane to turn down the chance to live with an extremely hot girl who could potentially be something more to you if you played your cards right.

She was very grateful towards you for being the first to arrive so soon after she sent out her fliers, and was quick to agree to work out accommodation as soon as possible.

That was a few years ago though. The two of you may still live in that very same apartment, but your relationship with her blossomed into something you never quite expected. A really close bond of friendship.

You never admitted your attraction for her, and she never really showed any romantic interest towards you. But you two have gotten to know each other as you became roommates. You shared personal secrets, your past lives, your dreams and ambitions, and you both always had something interesting to talk about that kept you both going for months.

She was hot. But you soon discovered that she was pretty cool too. You find yourself gravitating towards her for a different reason than you started out with. While your relationship with her wasn't what you hoped for, you got something better. You found someone you can trust with your life. What you'd do for her, she'd do for you, without question.

It's probably better this way.

As you reached for the doorknob to the bathroom, the door opened itself to reveal your roommate in nothing more than blue panties, a button-up shirt, and a towel covering her hair.

You both make eye-contact and your eyes went wide in shock.
