Housemates

A weird morning

There were no classes and Aurora took the day off work. Maximus did go to work even without her, but she understood his situation. Marcus went to the gym, why wouldn't he? That guy would miss all his classes but never a day at the gym. Sebastian and Felix were obviously sleeping. Both of them just needed a day off and they were either sleeping or partying. And Jacques, was...probably doing jacq-ass things. No one would be able to see him even if he was there. He was basically John Cena.

Aurora's hair was tied in a bun with a few sandy brown strands of it following down her hazel eyes and aquiline shaped nose. She just came out of the shower, before that she was trying some yoga, recommended by Marcus of course, which she very easily gave up on. So, obviously, she slid into something comfortable because living with these people meant that they don't give two craps about how you dress, except Maximus, he's a fashion diva. She went down to make breakfast for her and possibly the other guys too. Since it was a holiday, only Marcus and Maximus would help, rest of them would just complain. And ironically, both of them weren't home.

She was about to go to the kitchen when she heard her phone ringing. She took it out of her pocket and the screen flashed "Mom". She picked up the call and placed the phone on her ears.

"Morning, mom. How are you?" she said in a happy voice. Aurora loved her mother, apart from her friends, Mrs. Winters was the only one that somewhat understood her.

"Good morning, darlin'! I'm good. How are ya?" Kaitlyn replied with a whole lot of enthusiasm. When people found out she was a librarian, they always expected a grumpy old lady with glasses but Kaitlyn was far from that. She was very optimistic and just talking to her would make your day bright.

Aurora smiled at once hearing her voice, "Great, mom. No college today, so even greater."

Kaitlyn laughed. "Well, it's gon' be even greater after ya hear where I am!"

"Where?" Aurora chuckled and frowned at the same time.

"At the airport! Don't worry 'bout pickin' me up. I'm coming straight to ya!"

Aurora's mouth suddenly opens wide along with her eyes. "Mom's coming!?" she thought to herself. Mrs. Winters wondered why she took so long to respond, so she automatically assumed that her daughter must be on the verge of tears.

"Ah come on, hon. Don't ya worry. Mum's coming. See ya in...how long does it take from here to your house?" Mrs. Winters asked.

"Like...half an hour..." Aurora replied in astonishment.

"Be right there then! Love ya, hon!"

"Love you too, mom." Aurora said as Kaitlyn hung up the phone.

Aurora didn't know what to do first. Clean up the possible mess made by Sebastian and Felix last night? Or wake them up to tell them not to do something stupid? Then it striked her...Jacques. He would help her! (At least that's what she hoped for)

She quickly ran to Jacques' room, which was on the end corner because he liked it there. He was a lone wolf, mostly, except when Maximus came because he hyped everyone up. They tried to make Jacques do fun stuff but he wasn't into it and they didn't force him further.

"Jack?" Aurora knocked on the door. When they first became friends, he took almost an hour to open the door, he was very shy back then. He was still like that but let's just say he was a bit affected from the company he had.

Jacques slowly opens the door, a tiny bit, only to reveal his pale white face. Aurora noticed the nervousness in his dark brown eyes.

"Hey." Jacques shot a little smile at Aurora, his already upturned nose scrunched up even more as he moved his hand from his freckled face to the back of his neck.

"My mom's coming and I don't think I can explain any further because we don't have time!" Aurora exclaimed in one breath.

"O- oh-" You could hear the shock and confusion in Jack's voice as he nervously ran his hands through his ginger hair. They called it "the bow wow", he always does that when he's nervous and because he always side parts his shoulder length hair, it looks kind of cool. But why "bow wow"? That, Sebastian never specified. He was a pretty thin but unlike some people, he actually worked. Without any questions, he followed her. As they were going to go to the living room, Aurora saw Felix's room and decided to wake him up too, he wouldn't be of help but at least she could warn him.

"Felix, you here?" she asked, without even knocking because he's Felix, he either doesn't care or he's not in his room.
And she was right to do that because he didn't reply. She knew what she had to do.

Aurora went over to Sebastian's room, which was not not very far away from Felix's. Sebastian and Felix had been friends since high school and because they both were rich as heck, they got into the same college. They could probably buy 10 houses right on that moment, but they preferred paying rent and staying with their friends. Their parents definitely didn't like that though.

"Seb!" Aurora yelled for the third time and finally someone replied.

"You can come in, Dory!" Sebastian exclaimed and Aurora walked in. Sebastian's room was the perfect definition of a mess. But apart from the clothes and hair and other kinds of stuff lying around, his room was filled with posters of super cars and bikes, he even had some miniature figures of those. There was also a guitar laying around on the couch, which Sebastian got Felix on his last birthday. Both of their stuff was in each other's room, so that wasn't surprising.

"I don't know how many times I have to say this but it's 'Rory' not 'Dory'." Aurora remarked.

Sebastian smirked and winked at her. Sometimes, he looked like an ice king with those round sapphire blue eyes and the platinum blonde hair. He was pretty well-built but not too jacked, unlike Marcus, who was a literal Greek god.

He rubbed his hands on his face and ran them through his messy hair. Alongside him, was someone else too. Felix. His face was mostly covered with the blanket but Aurora could see his dirty blonde hair. It didn't necessarily come as a shock that Felix was in Sebastian's room. He was in Seb's room a lot. Everyone used to wonder if they both liked each other and Sebastian being bi made them even more curious, but the thought eventually went away.

"Seb, I'm in a rush. My mom's coming and I have to clean the mess you both made yesterday...so either help or wake up!" Aurora exclaimed and with those last very loud words, Felix opened his honey-like brown eyes. His hair was a curly fringe, but he was practically buried inside the sheets, so it wasn't visible.

"Morning." Felix murmured under his breath as he sleepily hugged Sebastian.

"Bro get off now", Sebastian said as he kicked his legs under the sheets.
Felix looked at him in confusion, with tired eyes.

"I'm done with this crap. I'm leaving, and for god's sake, wear a shirt, both of you!" Aurora walked out and closed the door.

Felix lifted his head up and narrowed his eyes, "Rory?" he asked and Sebastian hit the back of his head.

Aurora went to the living room, where Jack was already onto cleaning and Aurora joined him. Five minutes later, someone opened the door and came in. Aurora looked up. It was Marcus. Marcus was the definition of "tall, dark and handsome".

He had black, curly long hair but with a taper fade, which everyone loved. His dark skin somehow made his sky blue eyes look even better. And his jawline. Oh god, his jawline. Right then, he was definitely drenched in sweat. He suddenly stopped and stared at Jack and Rory.

"Yo. I don't think it's your turn to clean." Marcus said in a confused tone.
Aurora sighed, "Well. My mom's coming..."

Aurora looked and him and she realised that he had the exact same reaction as her.
"Dang. I'll...I'll come and help!" Marcus said as he sprinted away to change out of his gym clothes first.

Aurora and Jack were trying to be as fast as possible when they heard the doorbell. Aurora immediately looked at the door and then at Jack, noticing he was more scared than her.
