This is a continuation of my long-distance girlfriend's journey through college. We found out she accidentally got pair up with a male roommate. But she ended up "really hit it off with him", as she said, so she decided not to correct the situation. She has been difficult to get on the phone since she doesn't want to be known as girl in a long distance relationship with her phone always connected to her ear. We left off with a joking wager between her and her roommate that he could not get in her pants if she agreed to watch his favorite romantic-comedy movies with him. The last thing she said to me was that she would like to see him try to get in her pants.

I tried calling in the morning but she did not answer and the call went straight to voice-mail. She must have forgotten to charge her phone. Smartly, instead of calling straight to voice-mail repeatedly, I left a quick message to call me when she got the chance, so we could chat.
Waiting for her to call was agonizing; minutes seemed like hours, hours seemed like days. While waiting, I really had nothing to do except worry about my beautiful, light-hearted, unintentionally-flirty girlfriend hanging out with another guy.
When she finally did call, it seemed like nearly 2 weeks, by my count, but was probably closer to 13-14 hours. It was getting late in the evening and I had thought that she wasn't going to call at all that night.
"Hey Honey!" Her meekness shown through her feigned enthusiasm.
"Oh, hey, Sam. You finally decided to call," I struggled to mask my frustration.
"I know," she groaned, "I feel guilty because I am just having such a wild ride over here, while you are at home by yourself on your best behavior. I have to say that this has been the most exhilarating couple of days of my life. It's too bad that you aren't able to experience everything with me. Well, actually, there are some things you probably wouldn't want to experience...if you know what I mean."
"I'm not sure I do know what you mean," I confessed.
"Well, some of the men here have really shown an interest in me," she explained, "The guys are so cute and manly here that it is going to be difficult to resist their pick-up lines, I have to admit I accidentally did give out my cell number to a couple of them. Sorry!"
"I can't believe you did that!" I exclaimed. "Don't you think that is leading them on? What if they call you late at night?"
