I stood in the shower thinking how I can walk around this streets without being targeted all the time. When I came back to my senses, the water was already getting cold. I washed myself quickly and headed out the bathroom and into my bedroom completely naked. The boy wasn't there, I look out the window nearest to my bed and see him out in the backyard with one of the dogs. I chuckle slightly and head to bed. He took his time to put the sheets, I admired that. I think i can be a little less suspicious of him. After a long time of me rolling around the bed, I heard the door open and close. The boy and the sound of the dogs   felt quiet after the bed creaked. I'm guessing they both went to sleep; after all, it was very early in the morning.

My alarm went off at seven in the morning. The boy who went to sleep around five in the morning got up complaining "Shut that thing off". He walked around the room and went into my bed, "Scoot over a little Dots" he said completely unaware that he wasn't talking to his dog. I scooted over and when he lay down I got a little closer. The guy was completely asleep. I think he felt my presence and started to look around for me. He snuggled up close holding onto my shirt. "Why are you wearing a shirt?", he started to take it off for me; and he took off his own as well. He got closer again and snuggle my face against his chest. I didn't dare move, afraid he would wake up and straight up smack me. So instead, I wrapped my arm around his back and leaned in to listen to his heartbeat. He was not quite calmed, but he wasn't in a pressure or a hurry or anything. I patted his back, caressing it gently and his heart started to calm down on its own.

By the time he woke up again, I was half asleep. Since he kept caressing my hair in his sleep, I was also falling asleep. But that went to an end when one of the other roommates started vacuuming the room. He woke up and started to have a conversation with the person. It sounded like a girl. "Girls live here too? I thought this was an only guy residence. Hm- maybe I can get a hookup out of this place" I thought holding onto the boy. As soon as I heard a scream followed by a thud, I sprinted into a sitting position on the bed. The boy was on the floor looking at me. The girl left the room. I went to help him but instead, he stood up quickly and left. "Don't mind him, he sleeps walk around a lot. You'll get used to him in no time" the female came back "He's in the bathroom if you're wondering. Also you should go downstairs, greet everyone properly" she smiled and continued to clean the room. I got up and tidy my bed out of habit. Since he was in the bathroom, I went downstairs and looked around for the kitchen.

I saw a woman cooking breakfast, "She lives here too? She seems older than the people I've seen here for now" I thought as I sat on the kitchen stool. The woman looked up at me with a smile "You must be Mathew Burley, the English boy" she extended a hand. I smiled back at her and shook her hand as I thought "This place may not be so bad then". "I won't ask any personal questions as to why here all the way from England, but just know that if you need anything, you can talk to me or my husband. Names Dolly, my husband is Jack. Call us if any emergencies ok?" she talked. She too, just like everyone here, had an accent; hers was different though. She sounded more like a cowgirl from those American movies. I just smiled and watched her cook breakfast, she was making pancakes. "Excuse me, is there any coffee?" I asked lowly as I stood up, she seemed super nice but I can't let my guard down just yet. "Cups are on the top right cabinet, the coffee is right next to the sink. Enjoy yourself" Dolly told me. I walked over smiling to get some coffee, as I was pouring myself some, the girl that was vacuuming my room is now entering the kitchen.

"The rooms all clean and organized and I put away his stuff, is there anything else Dolly?" said the girl, I turned around and she looked at me. She glared "Maybe i should've brought a shirt for our new recruit", Dolly chuckled lightly "Pua, don't be glaring at people as first meet. It's not nice. Also remember to send everyone the message of tonight's dinner party". I looked at Dolly away from Pua and raised a brow. Dolly knew I was looking at her because she started talking like "Whenever theres a new member in this house, we have a barbecue dinner party to welcome them home. Don't worry, you'll get along with everyone just fine" she smiled even wider. A mans voice came into the kitchen saying "Darling, I'm leaving now ok? Remember to feed the kids and the dogs" he went to kiss Dolly on her lips. The man looked at me "You must be English boy. The names Jack. It's a pleasure to meet you" he too extended a hand and I shook it out of curtesy with a smile. "I'm starting to like this place. It's so big though, I wonder how many people live here" i took another sip of coffee as a girl that looked like my roommate came into the kitchen "Dolly, you know where Rui is?" she asked. She had every feature of that boy who roommates with me, it was a literal female version of him. "She's in the backyard with the dogs. Sai be a flower and feed Whiskers for me" Dolly said still cooking. I was wondering how much is she cooking for, because it seemed like a lot of food. As I sat back down on my chair, Sai went and grabbed some cat food from a cabinet, then left. As she was leaving, my roommate came into the kitchen.

"Good morning Dolly" I saw him kiss her cheek and head to the fridge. "Morning Sunray. Heard you slept snuggled up in Mathews arms" I almost chocked on my coffee with her words while he closed the fridge dumbfounded "Who's Mathew?".
I look at him flexing a little on my muscles "Good Morning Ryan" I lifted my cup to take another sip. His whole face turned red and he almost chocked. After a few events in the kitchen, he left for work and I went upstairs to work as well. "I should do some sort of diary to report things in this place. Everything is so extraordinary, it's quite hilarious. Hopefully I can get the "new life" I want for myself without murdering anyone" I chuckle at myself and sit down on my computer to start writing.
