Perfect Places

Chapter 2

A ray of sunlight fell onto Aslan's sleepy face. Heavy breaths escaped his mouth.

He didn't set any alarm. He didn't have to. He had a whole week to settle here. Might as well use that time to sleep in.

Softly he opened his eyes.
Blue eyes exposed to bright sunlight.

He looked to his right and saw Seth's part of the room decorated with home things.

He saw a small poster of the movie aliens and saw a huge poster of the whole star constellation.
It looked very old like he found it somewhere on the road.
There was a wooden guitar on the guy's bed.

Never knew he played guitar.

It's not like he was supposed to know anyways.
He saw Seth sleeping on the ground.
Just looking at him gave shivers.
God, why is he here?

It was 9:00. Not very late but that was okay, he slept early.
He tried to be as silent as possible. He knew they had to communicate someday. But if Aslan could delay that day, he most absolutely would.

He sneaked towards his closet and grabbed shorts and a random oversized hoodie. He took a towel and some bath stuff.
He took the keys and left the dorms.

He thought about Seth.
He is out of prison. Well, he is now out of prison for already 2 years.He was in jail for three years.

So long...

I hate him, despise him.

He took a quick shower. He washed himself with coconut shampoo and washed his hair.
After the shower he brushed his hair and got dressed.

He could go back to his own dorm or tell Ophelia he's back and let Eve and Maeve freak out and have enormous empathy with him.

Option two it is.

knock, knock.

Knock...knock, knock, knock knock.

"What?" A sleepy voice answered the door. Her silky blonde hair was in a bun.

"S-Seth...That freaking asshole" Oh god was he freaking out again? "He is... my roommate."
He stuttered and looked away.
This was so stupid, Seth is so stupid.
He's ruining everything.

"Seth?" She asked, unbelievable.

Aslan nodded. "I'm so sorry ash..." She gave Aslan a big and comfortable hug. If Aslan was being honest, he hates physical touch. He could panic if you would grab his arm. But this hug felt warm.

"That's so unfortunate..." She whispered. "You go to Eve and Maeve... I just want to talk to him, he's my friend after all." She said and closed the door behind her and walked towards Aslan's dorm.

Aslan walked towards Maeve's dorm.

Knock...

knock knock, knock... knock

"Yeah, yeah!" Eve yelled at the closed door.

"What's going on?" She asked as she opened the door. Her harsh facial expression fell when she saw Aslan.
A panicking Aslan.

"Seth is my roommate." He blurted out at once. Maeve seemed to join Eve after his statement.

"Seth... Is in your dorm?" Eve asked carefully. She looked concerned.

"Yeah." Aslan hummed.

"Ah you poor thing!" Eve exclaimed.

"Is he as hot as he used to be?" Maeve asked as she looked up, dreamily. Eve sighed and Aslan looked a tad confused.
