    Summary

    This fanfic is loosely based off of the show, referencing some of conversations they've had before; unfortunately I do not own the characters. Consider this an alternate version to what ensued in 2017.

    This takes place before Tessa ever runs her hand through Mariah's hair on the couch and they catch feelings. Ya'll know what scene I'm talking about. They never were roommates before, and they're still in relationships with the boys. Though I love happy Teriah, I've been missing the angst between them on the show. This will be my release of that need!
    The number 8 will make sense later.
    Bold text is Mariah's journal entries.
    Italic is Mariah and Tessa's inner thoughts.
    Plain text is conversations and actions.
