Please Don't Bite

Five

❌TW: Panic attack during Angie's POV❌

Bosco's POV:
----

I mumbled to myself as I snuggled further into my blankets, regretting not putting on actual pajamas last night. Now I was freezing, and would have to brave getting out of bed to grab clothes.

I slowly pulled myself out of my blanket cocoon, my eyes resting on Jasmine. The girl was sprawled out on her bed, her blonde hair a mess and her blanket mostly on the floor. How she wasn't frozen, I'll never know. These dorms felt as if they went below freezing temperatures during winter semesters. I grabbed her blanket when noticing her shivering, covering her back up again and smiling when she stopped. I giggled a bit. She was definitely an interesting one, and something seemed to pull at my heartstrings when I looked at her.

But before I could think about that too much, there was a knock on the door. I pulled a sweater over my head, immediately knowing who it was. There was only one person who was up this early almost every day. I opened the door, greeted by Angie and her new roommate.

"Hey sugar, I was wondering if you-" She stopped when she glanced down. "You could at least put some pants on before opening the door-"

I looked down at my legs and shrugged, walking away from the door and grabbing a pair of sweats to pull on. Angie walked inside, holding onto the other girl's hand. "Camden, love, this is Bosco."

I pulled the sweats on and looked Camden over, smiling so I didn't intimidate her. "Hi Camden. That's the girl that somehow appeared in my dorm one day." I pointed over at Jasmine who was still sleeping despite our talking. "Her name is Jasmine."

Angie looked over at her, trying not to laugh. "She seems like a fun one."

"She's definitely interesting." I said and plopped back down on my bed, laying with my arms behind my head. "Now what did you want this early?"

"I was about to take Camden to meet Blu, Cheryl and Janey and wanted to know if you two would want to join us?" Angie motioned towards Jasmine. "We were going to get breakfast."

Normally I slept through breakfast, but I guess it would be a good idea to get used to waking up on time for class. I gave her a nod, stretching my arms. "Yeah I'll go with you. Let me get dressed and wake Jasmine and I'll meet you down there."

Angie smiled, keeping hold of Camden as she went back to the door. "Good luck. She looks dead asleep."

She was right about that. Even when Angie closed the door loudly, Jasmine didn't move a muscle. If I didn't see her chest rising and falling I would've thought she was dead. I went over and poked her shoulder carefully. "Jazz?"

No response. She just gripped onto her pillow tighter, eyes still closed.

Okay yeah, maybe she looked cute with her hair all messy. But I thought lots of girls were cute. I thought my friends were all cute and I'm always affectionate with them. So my heart had no business fluttering this way. I huffed softly at myself, giving the girl a nudge. "Jasmine?"

Oh my god maybe she was dead. I groaned softly, putting both hands on her shoulders and shaking her. "Come on blondie I'm hungry-"

Jasmine jumped awake with a gasp and I immediately stepped back, feeling bad when seeing her scared expression. "Oops-"

Jasmine gripped her blanket and shook her head, calming herself down before speaking. "Wh-What happened? Did I do something?"

I shook my head, giving her an apologetic smile. "No, I just wanted to grab food with Angie and her new roomie and decided to bring you with me. Now come on and get dressed girlie."
