A/N: Hi! Whoa! I'm writing another FF?

Yes. Don't question it. I'm crazy.

Ayy I'm Tana, for anyone who doesn't already know me! I'm a crazy lesbian fangirl who can't stop writing Fanfiction for more than like a day before shit goes crazy. I've written for Glee (Brittana, Quinntana, Dantana), Faking It (Karmy), and PLL (Emison)... c:

So Carmilla. Yeah, I heard about it last weekend from my friend (shoutout to my friend bc she's prob reading this). On Monday I started watching Carmilla... Couldn't watch it all in one sitting because life got in the way, but I finished S1 on Tuesday, and since then, I literally can't get it out of my mind. I'm sort of obsessed with Elise Bauman (BC SHE IS THE MOST ADORABLE CANADIAN EVER) *whispers* sorry Shay...

Ummm where was I? Yeah so I ship Laura and Carmilla (Hollstein?) with such passion, and you know, Fanfiction was basically calling me. So I started trying to read Hollstein FF, and after reading like 2 short ones I was like okay yeah I'm writing this shit.

So this first chapter (as well as the second chapter, which I have already written) feels sort of like word vomit to me, but it all somehow made sense. I can't promise that all of the characters are perfectly in character - bc yeah. But... ANYWAY!

Italic sections will be flashbacks/dreams... IF I put them in the story ever.

Bolds are texts/emails/signs... such things shall be very clear when they occur.

Story is 3rd person. First chapter is all Laura centered, 2nd is split with Laura and Carmilla... it'll basically jump around.

Um so yeah. I give shoutouts to every 50th reviewer (not sure how many reviewers I'll even get on this story bc Idk how popular Hollstein FF is?) But you know, I'm writing because I love it so it doesn't really matter. I mean, I LOVE reviews, and they make me super happy, so you def should review ;)

What else... um... well... oh man I'm awkward today.

So I hope that you guys like it c:

Disclaimer: I def do not own Carmilla bc I'm not that fabulous... yet...

PLEASE enjoy, favorite, follow and REVIEW!? :)

Laura set her last box on her already made bed in the tiny dorm room. She hadn't had a ton of stuff—it was a small enough amount that it fit neatly into her car—so she had insisted that her dad not drive to the school with her. She wanted to feel grown up. Isn't that what every girl wants after growing up with an extremely protective dad for her whole life?

Nevertheless, as she looked down at her unpacked boxes, she let out a light sigh. She wished that she had asked her dad to come along. She already missed him.

She couldn't stay in her tiny self pity party for long, though, because the whole building was alive with noise. Move in day was crazy, as it should be, Laura supposed. She left her door hanging open, because she figured that her roommate would be coming in soon with all of her stuff, and Laura was already trying to be the good roommate. She was always like that of course—trying to be extremely nice to everyone. That's just who she was.

That was one of the reasons why she was slightly worried about meeting her new roommate. Some people found her to be nerdy or annoying or too talkative, and she didn't know how comfortable she would be living with someone who thought of her like that. However, that didn't really mean that she needed someone completely like her to move in. No, that would probably be a bad idea for the whole building. But she needed to live with someone who was at least neat and polite. She didn't even really care if she ended up being friends with her—her two best friend slots were completely filled anyway. And, lucky for her, both Perry and LaFontaine already went to Silas University. Laura had delayed school for a year, and she was sort of glad that she had, because now, she had her two best friends to help her get used to everything.

Laura had only opened one box at this point—the first one she had brought in, the one that she had opened up and emptied in order to make her bed. The rest were now sprawled on top of the bed, or sitting against the edge of it, waiting to be opened. Laura knew that she had the whole weekend to unpack before classes started, but she wanted to get it done sooner rather than later. Perhaps it was part of her organizing OCD, which wasn't really that bad if it was compared to Perry's cleaning OCD, or maybe part of her need to be a good roommate. Either way, she took a deep breath and opened her next box.

As she began unpacking everything and putting her clothes and toiletries away as neatly as possible, she imagined that she looked like one of those sped up videos people always saw on the internet. That thought kept her from going crazy about unpacking, and soon enough, she was completely done.

Someone kept going down the hall, back and forth, calling for empty boxes. Laura had no idea what the guy needed them for, but she gladly handed hers over. They were just taking up extra room, and it wasn't like boxes were expensive to buy if she needed one sometime.

In the hallway, Laura glanced around, looking for a stray person looking for their room. Nobody was bouncing around through the halls anymore, aside from the box guy, so Laura figured that most everyone should have found their room at this point. But she was still without a roommate. And sure, not having a roommate wouldn't be the worst thing ever, but Laura had gotten herself all excited over the idea, and she was sort of bummed at realizing that if her roommate hadn't shown up yet, she probably didn't even exist.

Laura didn't even have to look at the clock to know that it was getting late—besides her amazing internal clock, she was exhausted, and ready to sleep. She forced herself to accept her lack of roommate, and grabbed some pajamas, before stepping into her bathroom to get ready for bed.

It was approximately twenty minutes later—when Laura was all clean and dressed for bed—that she exited the bathroom to see a young woman sprawled across the second bed of the dorm room. Seeing a person in there actually quite terrified Laura, because she really had stopped expecting someone to walk in. "Oh!" she squealed, seeing the girl, who was tapping away on her cell phone carelessly. "Sorry! I didn't realize I had a roommate."

"That's generally how it works when you're living in a two person dorm room, cupcake," the dark haired girl deadpanned. Laura blinked, surprised at the immediately sarcastic tone and the strange nickname. Perhaps Laura's comment hadn't been clear.

"No, I knew that I was supposed to have one, I just didn't think anyone was coming—everyone stopped arriving like two hours ago," Laura explained herself, hoping for a more polite response this time around. The pale girl with dark brown hair looked away from her phone and up at Laura with slightly intimidating brown eyes. This girl's hair and eyes were joined by an almost entirely black outfit. Laura could already tell that this was a girl that she was unlikely to get along with. As Laura started to become uncomfortable with having her roommate's eyes stuck on her, the dark haired woman finally moved her gaze back to her phone. "Umm… so what's your name?"

Laura moved to sit on her bed as she waited for an answer, noting that the girl had already closed and locked the door while Laura had been in the shower. "Carmilla," the other said, scrolling through whatever it was she was so intently staring at.

"Well, nice to meet you, Carmilla," Laura said politely. "I'm Laura."

"Good for you, creampuff," Carmilla commented, seeming to be completely ignoring the blonde.

Laura, annoyed at this point, cleared her throat. "Well, while you were arriving late, I finished in the bathroom, so it's open for you." Carmilla, of course, didn't bother to answer. Laura rolled her eyes as she slid her legs under the blankets on her bed. She rested her head on her yellow pillow and squeezed her eyes shut to ignore the fact that the light was still on.

Possibly ten minutes later, she heard Carmilla finally get off of her bed and head into the bathroom. However, she didn't go in until she had turned off the lamps around the room. And Laura heard Carmilla go into the bathroom and the shower running, she couldn't help the small, slightly perplexed smile that appeared on her face as she realized that her seemingly very annoying and rude roommate had just turned off the lights for her.

"What do you think of Silas so far?" Perry eagerly questioned Laura the next morning. They were sitting in the campus coffee shop, at around noon. Laura hadn't seen her two best friends since she'd arrived, and it was nice to hang out with them again finally.

"Well, the energy is definitely refreshing, compared to being back home," Laura answered, smiling.

"How's your roommate?" LaFontaine wondered.

Laura shrugged. "I don't really know. She came in late last night, and when I tried to introduce myself, she was pretty rude. Not to mention that she left the bathroom a mess before she went to sleep last night, so this morning, while she was still sound asleep on her side of the room, I had to pick my way through her mess just to get ready!"

"Okay, there, Hollis," LaFontaine calmed her down, "there's no need to rant in run on sentences."

"What's your roommate's name?" Perry asked. "Sometimes you can get switched into a new room, you know?"

"Carmilla, and even if she does seem like a bad roommate so far, I don't think I need to switch rooms," Laura admitted. "I mean, I spent forever unpacking all of my stuff yesterday. I already have my computer set up on the wall, and my armoire is already full of my clothes. It would suck to move it all now, not to mention that I don't want to really be seen as a bad sport on my second day on a college campus."

"Okay, but you said she's messy? How are you going to survive?" Perry demanded.

"Perry, not everyone is as OCD clean as you are, remember?" Laura reminded her, shaking her head and smiling fondly at her friend, before taking a sip of her hot chocolate. She wasn't a coffee, or any caffeine at all, kind of girl. "Anyway. What sort of stuff are we supposed to do this weekend? Classes haven't started yet, and I've already seen where all of mine are."

"It's our last few days of freedom, L!" LaFontaine reminded her. "They're throwing an end of summer party tonight."

"Who are they?" Laura asked.

"She means the Zetas," Perry interrupted in order to explain, "the fraternity guys. They throw huge parties all the time. And if you combine those with the excessive need for every single organization or part of this school to throw parties at every excess moment, there's basically some sort of party on campus every other night. And I'm not exaggerating."

"Sounds like those will be the nights that I will be studying then," Laura stated.

"Why do you say that?" LaFontaine asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Carmilla totally looks like a party girl, so she'll probably be out at all of those things," Laura answered, giving a small shrug as she took another sip of her hot chocolate.

Perry looked confused. "Well, why do you need her to be gone to study?"

Laura blinked. "Uh, I don't know. She's just rude, and I would prefer to not have to try to focus while she's doing what rude people do." That, just as it sounded like, was a complete excuse for something that Laura didn't want to admit. Carmilla, despite her dragging tone and her sarcastic remarks, was admittedly very attractive. And considering how she was pretty sure that Carmilla had been wearing black leather pants the previous night… yeah.

"Uh huh," LaFontaine agreed sarcastically, glancing at Perry with knowing eyes. Laura shook her head.

"I'm going to go back to my dorm and finish unpacking," she declared, standing up.

"I thought you finished last night," Perry commented, a suspicious look covering her face. Laura didn't acknowledge the question, because she was obviously already busted for trying to escape a conversation that she'd rather not have.

Instead, she finished with a polite, "I'll see you guys later," and proceeded to leave the coffee shop.

Sooooo yeah that happened... Omg why am I so worried about this. Okay yeah uh... I'm sorry if it was awkward. Omg.

;D So tell me what you thought? Reviews are amazing, PMs are great :D Idk, I just wanna know how you guys feel about it. I plan on continuing. I can't promise any update schedules, because as some of you know, I have 3 other WIP stories and some on hold for when one of them finishes (lol).

Speaking of which, CYSM will be updated this weekend (this probably will be as well), and the next thing on my lineup to work on is IDDA, because it's been longer since I updated that than SOWK...

Anyway...

I really need to be doing homework. Sooooo I'm gonna go do that. :)

Have a great night/day/morning lovelies! I would love to hear feedback on what you thought! So, please review maybe? :) xxxxxxx
