Living with My Best Friend, and the Unexpected Turn Our Friendship Took Roomates Dan and I are best friends. We have known each other since 1st grade. We lived on the same street. We played together camped together, swam, played sports and were just generally best buds. We just graduated high school this past spring and are both eighteen years old. We have been making plans of getting our own place since the 9th grade. We figured if we both worked we could get a two bedroom apartment and split the costs. I work at a local fast food place and Dan works at a warehouse. We don’t make a lot of money but it is enough to pay the rent, utilities and food with a little left over for weekend stuff. We got a pretty nice apartment on the ground floor with a good view of the swimming pool. We have a workout room at our complex, a swimming pool and a nice little lake that’s good for duck chasing. Our apartment is a small two bedroom with one bathroom. It is a jack and jill style bathroom with a door from each bedroom leading into it. I have the smaller of the two bedrooms so all I can fit in it is a full size bed small night stand and a dresser. …but everything was about to change
