"No but seriously-"

She glances at me over her shoulder with a raised eyebrow. "Don't freak out so much about it."

"You expect me, this person right here, not to freak out about the smallest inconveniences in life?"

Pushing out her lips she shakes her head. "You know, not really no."

I drop down on the bed, crossing my legs. "Okay but this kind of feels like I am the one having to go out and meet all of the people in your life and something tells me that I am not incredibly emotionally prepared for any of it."

"Hey, I met your friends."

"Well... you are you."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"You know exactly what that is supposed to mean."

She plops down next to me. "Well, meeting the Kinkou is probably never going to happen because I do recall telling you that I do not want anything to do with them ever. And you have to meet the girls properly otherwise we are going to have a hard time existing."

With a sigh of relief. "I can work with one half better than the other."

"You sure?" 

I furrow my brow. "You are asking that for a reason aren't you?"

"You." She scoots back up the bed and lays down while gesturing for me to snuggle up with her. "Are overreacting a little bit for someone that is supposed to not freak out at every single inconvenience."

"I have fallen off."

"I can tell." She pats the space next to her. "Also get over here already before you decide that tonight is the night you don't go to bed at all."

I shake my head as I crawl up beside her, she leans over me reaching for the remote on my nightstand and turning on the TV and then taking the controller to turn on the console.

"Are you going to stay awake for longer than ten minutes?"

"Probably." She nods. Then handing me the controller while she gets comfortable cuddling against me. "I just learned that there is a point and time I need to steal you before I have to compete with the computer."

"Yeah... you have been overstepping your welcome quite a bit."

She whispers to me. "We can go back to you not having a girlfriend?"

I narrow my eyes slightly. "It would give me a lot of my freedom back."

"Oh, I bet that is the case." I glance down at her as she watches me with narrowed eyes. I smile at her and she rolls her eyes at me.

"What do you want to watch?"

"That thing we said we'd watch together but I pass out after one episode and then you browse on your phone after I passed out because I am not in a deep sleep yet and you don't want to watch the rest of the episodes without me."

"Very specific."

She chuckles. "And then I wake up at 3 AM and you somehow managed to worm yourself out of bed and to the PC because you have this thing."

"My sleeping schedule probably needs a bit of work," I admit. "I won't go anywhere tonight."

She whispers. "That's why I am going to actually watch more than one episode and not fall asleep."

"Do you actually like the show?"

She pouts. "I do it is just that I am comfortable and Ahri knows I have a lot of energy so she puts all of that energy to work and then I just kind of... die when I get home."

"Alright."

"Sounds a lot like you trying to be judgmental."

"Not my place, I am pretty terrible."

"You are." She whispers back to me, resting her head on my chest while I finish up setting up the show and get comfortable enough to hold her and not feel like I am going to break my neck in the process.

"About College..." She beings.

"Hmm?"

"Are you okay there? It isn't a total pain in the ass?"

I shake my head, then answer because she can't see my face. "Not at all, apart from people kind of knowing my relationship with you considering that it got pretty widespread."

"I mean, they aren't being assholes to you, right?"

"Lot of people don't care. Some did try to be my friend probably to be able to meet you but then they learned that I can be pretty unlikeable so it never went past that little phase. Apart from that it is just normal college life for someone like me that didn't have a lot of friends, to begin with."

"And about Conrad," I stay silent to hear if she had something to say, "I was just not giving any input to see how you feel about it but..."

"Bad idea."

"Terrible. Like... me giving JP the light of day terrible. As in I'd rather you stay away from his kind of deal."

I chuckle slightly. "That's why I asked you."

"It's your decision, but that is how I feel about it."

"Have you heard about him?"

"Who? JP?" She snorts. "Met his friends and they have been pretty upset about how things turned out. So I think I am pretty safe in saying that we shouldn't be seeing him any time soon for a long time."

"Better that way, I think."

"It is." She nods. "But other than that?"

I lift my shoulders. "Not really much interesting as I said, I don't think I was going to be subject to a pretty interesting and eventful college life seeing as I have a crippling fear of going anywhere alone."

"Well, you can take me with you."

"Too much attention."

"Oh, you hate attention?"

I hold her close to me. "It's different when it comes from my girlfriend, and the problem with showing up with you will just make them think that I am trying to be bigger than I am. Not in the mood for that confrontation."

She whispers to me. "I thought you said you didn't care?"

"Doesn't stop them from being annoying."

"Well... you can't just keep me locked up in an Ivory tower."

"I am not." I chuckle. "If anything I am actively trying to convince you to lock me up in your tower."

"Not going to work~"

The conversation drags out, amounting to me stating that I have no interest in having anything to do with college other than finishing it. On the other hand, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to go out and enjoy it while I can.

But is it really necessary considering I am enjoying what I have now?

Akali fell asleep a bit later than usual, but despite wanting to go play games I stayed in bed and eventually passed out.
