St. Alastairs

Chapter Seven

Eros POV:

"Orisia, where the fu-" I paused,"Where have you been ." I was hiding my emotions this time. "I guess I owe you guys an explanation." Reign and I nodded rapidly. "Yes you do. And it had better be a very good reason." Xidorn said as he rolled his eyes, growling.

"Well...I-" She hesitated,"I've been doing some things for my family. I'm sorry for not telling you guys. I just thought you'd be mad at me for leaving and-"I just stared at her as Reign spoke,"You left..right after what happened??" She was near a growl. I raised an eye-brow, still not knowing what happened. Orisia just closed her eyes and Reign scoffed.

"You know what.-I'm going to go back home for the weekend." She started grabbing her things, and I didn't know if I should stop her. Xidorn and Reign left the dorm and Orisia teleported onto the top bunk.

"...I- Oris-Rei-Paren-huh?" I was at a loss for words. "Hey hey...Orisia...cheer up. If you're upset about Reign..she just needs time to cool off.." I tried having a nice touch in my voice. She stayed quiet and I tried climbing up the bunk. I hit my head on the ceiling as I sat next to her. I put my hand on hers, trying not to be awkward, just trying to calm her down. She put her head on her knees and I leaned against the wall.

After a few minutes, I felt her breathing slow down a bit. I climbed down the bunk and closed the door behind me.

"Eros." I jumped a bit as I heard Xidorn speak. "What?" I yawned, a bit tired. "What do you think about what Orisia said earlier?" He asked.

"She's lying." I walked past him, trying not to get into this subject.

"Glad to know you're on the same page as the other two of us."He paused,"Something's seriously wrong with her. Do you think you might be able to find out why? For Reign, of course." I shrugged as a maybe. Plopping down on my bunk.

"For Reign? Or for you too?" I raised a brow. "Reign. She cares too much about what Orisia's been doing." He gave me a look that I could understand, but barely.

"Hm- are you friends with Reign?" I shifted onto my back. "I'm not sure. Probably." He shrugged.

"She doesn't seem to like me very much." I sighed looking at Xidorn again.

"Reign or Orisia?" He raised a brow.

"Reign." I grunted looking back at the ceiling of the bunk. "Oh, she can be bit... stubborn, I suppose. I'm sure she'll warm up to you, after all, we're all forced to live together." He looked back to the hallway as I yawned once again.

"I'm heading to bed-" I turned over, closing my eyes.

"You do realize you're already in bed, right?" He teased as I threw an extra pillow at him. He said something else but I was too tired to hear him as I drifted off to sleep.

I woke up to someone nudging me, it was Reign,"Did Xidorn tell you about Orisia?" I turned over, accidentally smacking her in the face.

"What the hell you little shit!" She yelled covering her mouth,"He's your problem now." She whispered, running out the room. I didn't know what she was talking about until I heard Xidorn growling,"You bastard. I can't believe you just woke me up. Just tell me it's something important at the least." He hopped down and went face to face with me.

"It wasn't me! It was Reign I swear!" I put my hands up in defense.

"Well, I heard you. So now you have to deal with the consequences of waking me up early on a Saturday!" He started to yell a bit.
