*** Random LGMH Story ***

My first semester of college was terribly lonely.

One night there was a knock on my door, I looked outside and there were roses in the hallway with notes telling me to go down the hall and etc. I followed the instructions.

At the end of the trail was my boyfriend... waiting to take me home for the weekend.
