After the buses arrived the teachers told all of the students to go inside of a big, pretty house. Once Kaveh found out that they would be staying there he got excited. It was hard to find buildings that Kaveh liked the design of, but he liked this one a lot.
Once all of the student went inside one of the teachers started speaking. Kaveh recognized the teacher pretty quickly, it was the teacher from when he was un detention. He disliked the teacher and he disliked thinking about that day in detention so he just decided to stop thinking about anything else and listen.
"Every apartment has two bedrooms. I will chose who stays in which room and you cant switch with eachother" The teacher said and started pairing the other students students.
Cyno and Tighnari were paired together. Cyno was happy but Tighnari didn't look as enthusiastic.
Candace was paired with someone Kaveh didnt know. Of course Dehya wasn't very happy about this but she just told the teacher not to give her a separate room and that she would just sleep with Candace. The teacher was really tired of coming up with random pairs so she just agreed and moved on.
Aether was paired with Wanderer poor Aether..
And Kaveh didnt really lisyen to the rest because he started thinking about that day in detention. He was just trying comfort Alhaitham that day but because of Wanderer everybody thought that they were flirting. He hated Wanderer even more every day.
Kaveh was soon snapped out of his thoughts when he heared his own name. "Kvaeh.." the teacher begun "anddd...." she looked around the room before stopping and squinting her eyes "Alhaitham" she said and smiled, she seemed proud of herself.
Kaveh was glad that he wasnt paired with someone he didn't know but at the same time he knew that his frineds would make a big deal out of this and well... he wasn't wrong.
He felt Dehya patt him on his shoulder and as soon as he turned around she chuckled and winked at him. Kaveh rolled his eyes and walked to the teacher who was giving out keys.
When Kaveh finally received his key he looked at the room number that was written on the key. Room 69. Kaveh chuckled and started looking for his room.
Once he finally found it he went inside and saw Alhaitham who was sitting on the couch and reading a very thick book.
"The room on your right is mine. Don't go in there and don't go near it. The room in front of you is the bathroom which is sadly shared. And the room on your left is your bedroom. It's bigger than mine because I assumed that you brought a lot of unnecessary shit" Alhaitham said coldly before looking back down at his book.
Kaveh wanted to say something but he still felt awkward after their conversation on the bus so he decided to stay quiet.
He just nodded and walked to his room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
That afternoon Kaveh went out to a near Café with Cyno and Tighnari.
As they were eating, Tighnari complained about how annoying Cyno was and how much he disliked being Cynos roommate.
"At first he asked me to sleep in the same room as him...and I very politely refused. Then he begged me to play TCG with him when i was literally unpacking my bags" Tighnari said and gave Cyno a death stare.
"Shut up, Tight-nari!" The white haired boy answered and chuckled at his own joke.
"OHH and his absolutely horrible jokes aswell!" Tighnari continued.
Kaveh felt entertained by this so he didn't even try to change the subject or speak in general. He also found Cynos jokes to be quite funny but of course he would never admit that.
After Tighnari stopped complaining about Cyno there was a long awkward silence which was broken by Cyno.
"So...Kaveh, you and Alhaitham are roommates, yeah?" He asked
Kaveh did not like this question. He knew where this was going and he didnt want to have this kind of conversation right now, or ever actually but he didn't want to ignore his friend's question so he answered with a simple "yeah"
Cyno was about to say something else but Tighnari noticed that Kaveh felt uncomfortable and stopped him
"Do you like your room, Kaveh?" Cyno asked instead.
"Yeah, it's okay. Its big so i could fit all of my stuff very well and the bed was comfortable....the closet was big...yeah I liked it" he said and smiled at Tighnari to show that he was thankful for changing the subject.
"Did you guys like your rooms?" Kaveh asked his friends in return.
"Tighnari took the better room and said that i didnt need that much space! Thats so unfair. I liked the big room more and i needed the space" Cyno said and side-eyed Tighnari
"Oh? And what did you need the space for?" Kaveh asked.
"To store my five boxes that are full of my beautiful Genius Invokation TCG cards, of course" Cyno answered with a completely serious expression
"Five boxes" Tighnari repeated and rubbed his forehead
"Why do you need so many cards, though?" The blonde boy asked again.
"Because they look cool!" Cyno replied with a serious face again which made Tighnari face-palm and sigh deeply.
Kaveh looked at his friend with an unsure expression "thats it? They just look cool?" He asked and narrowed his eyebrows.
"Yes. Very cool. Would you like to see them after we get back?" Cyno offered, his serious expression changed to a friendly smile.
Kaveh was never really into card games but he was interested in Cynos cards since they mattered to him this much and he also had a feeling that they didn't even look that cool so he accepted.
"Yeah, sure you can show me the cards" he said but Cynos mischievous smile immediately made him regret saying yes.
"I'll teach you how to play TCG and I'll show you what all of the cards do!!" Cyno said happily and patted Kaveh on his shoulder.
"Good luck, Kaveh" Tighnari said and looked at kaveh with dissapointed eyes.
