‘Ellie, you’re single. You should take the single room.’
I stared at Will in shock. He couldn’t be serious.
‘The rest of us are all seeing people, so we need the double bedrooms,’ he continued.
‘Please tell me you’re kidding,’ I said slowly.
Will stood up tall and went straight into accountant mode. ‘I’m not trying to be a dick,’ he said diplomatically. ‘I just think it makes sense for us three to take the big rooms because Emma is with Sergio, Ollie is with Yomi and I’m with Cheng. You’re single, so you should have this room. Logically, you don’t need the double bed.’
I looked around the tiny room at the others. Emma was shuffling awkwardly on her black-wedged heels and avoiding eye contact with me, while Ollie was inspecting the laminated floorboards. He ran his hand over his short bleached hair and blinked at me innocently with his bright blue eyes. I forgave him immediately.
‘It won’t be that bad. You can pay slightly less rent,’ said Will.
He was serious. He was actually serious. I stared at Emma and Ollie again, waiting for them to stick up for me.

This was a trap. A coup de whatever in my own bloody home. ‘Are you fucking kidding me?’ I cried out.
Will’s tweezed eyebrows settled themselves into a familiar frown and he crossed his arms.

She shook her short blonde hair. ‘No, of course not, babe, but I do kind of really need a double bedroom. Serge will stay here loads and he’s six foot six, El. I don’t think he’ll fit in a single bed.’
I gave her a withering look before turning to Ollie. ‘Ollie? What about you?’ I asked, hoping my eyes looked more doe-eyed than rabid.
‘Ah, I’m really sorry, Ellie,’ he said. ‘It’s just that Yomi will stay with me whenever she’s down visiting me from uni in Bristol.’
I sighed. Of course the perfect almost-doctor girlfriend was going to visit him whenever she had time off from saving people’s lives.
‘Come on, Ellie, it’s the easiest option,’ said Will with a look of faux sympathy on his annoyingly symmetrical face. ‘If you had a boyfriend, it would be different, but you don’t really need all that extra СКАЧАТЬ
