"Make it thirty-two," Was heard from the tv at a low volume, Ryan and Aries were currently in her dorm room cuddled up while she silently slept in his arms.

Aries scrolled through TikTok, occasionally glancing at the TV. "This some shit ryan would like," he thought out loud, considering adding Substance to his TikTok shopping cart. It's a card game that asks deep questions.

"Mama," he whispered, kissing her cheek as he shook her awake. He knew she would wake up with an attitude, but he needed to know if she would like it before he bought it.

As she stirred, she groaned and fluttered her eyes open. Sitting up, she looked around, confused until her gaze landed on Aries.

"What?" she questioned groggily. Furrowing his eyebrows, Aries looked confused before remembering that he had taken out his hearing aid before they went to sleep.

He held up one finger and reached over her towards the nightstand."My fault, You wanna try this game? we can do it at the park assum," he said.

She nodded in agreement and laid back down, feeling exhausted from her earlier classes. She knew she had to be up early again in the morning, so she was going to get all the sleep she could. Luckily, she only had three morning classes, so she would be free tomorrow afternoon.

Shortly after she had dozed off, her phone began ringing. "Oh my Goddd!" she sighed, huffing as she punched the air in frustration. She quickly clicked her power button to silence the call and threw the cover over her face, annoyed.

"Who blowing you up like that?" Aries asked, eyeing her suspiciously as her phone continued to ring.

"I don't know answer it," she shrugged, adjusting herself to lay the other way, back facing Aries.

"You been sleeping since we came back from break? You depressed?" Aries asked, genuinely concerned as he leaned over and poked her cheek repeatedly in an attempt to wake her up. Ignoring the ringing phone.
