Medication

Notus was at his room, checking his phone time to time and turning to sides as he tried to get some..rest. As he was tossing himself around, he heard some footsteps next to his room. Not that he does hear shuffling around everyday, however this time, it was coming from the room near him. He sit up slowly but couldn't get the courage to check what was going on. It could be anything. Willow? Villains? Some lame intruders? Or just..Xavia, the person that has the room next to him. He sighed softly and he stood up. He checked the time, striking to almost 3am. He realized he's been thinking for some quite while. "What kind of a loser am I..?" he thought.

He slowly stood up and opened his door. Pure darkness around the house. That doesn't creep him much, but since someone is probably around the house, this made him a little suspicious. He slowly walked over the corridor and looked around. Nothing. "Huh." He thought.

Notus finally decided to check the kitchen and he switched it's light then he stopped immediately.
"Xavia?"

Xavia turned to Notus and she hid the thing she had on her hand and she smiled awkwardly as the light blinded her eyes suddenly, still trying to act like she didn't get caught:
"Hhhhey..."
"What are you..doing here?
"I'm just hungry.. I uuhh-"
Notus shook his head.
"No. Show me what's on your hand."
Xavia sighed and slowly got her hand to the front from the back and Notus stepped closer, and he wore his glasses to see what it is. After reading it slowly, he quickly looked up at Xavia in confusion.
"Xavia..Why are you taking these?"
Xavia bit her lip and she put the pills to the counter. Their gazes locked for a while before Xavia cutting the silence.
"I'll tell you tomorrow, okay?.. Don't tell anyone.

Notus only stared at the ceiling for the rest of the night.
