Nathan shot up, and started panicking. He had absolutely no clue where he was.

'Oh shit.'

Slowly, he turned and saw Max snoring softly on her bed. He had forgotten he fell asleep in here. Victoria was probably crazy worried where he was.

Victoria.

He scrambled off the couch, and quickly put his pants and shoes on. He quietly left Max's room, making sure no one was in the hallway. He made a dash for the side door, and bolted across campus to his dorm.

Victoria was standing in front of his room, arms crossed, with a sour expression on her face.

"And just where the hell have you been?"

"I just fell asleep in someone's room, I don't know whose it was. It was empty when I woke up.."

"Hmph. Yeah okay whatever it's fine." She turned to walk into Nathan's room. "I was thinking about what we were talking about last nig-"

And then Victoria quite literally woke up the whole floor.

She let out a long shrill scream as a bucket of water, and the bucket, fell on her head; one by one, boys came out from the rooms to see what the hell was going on.

"Victoria, I-"

"Save it." She held up a hand, and then stormed off.

Nathan sighed, and picked up the bucket. He threw it down the hall, and walked to the showers to get towels.

He yelled at the boys who were staring at him. "Don't you have something better to do than to gawk at me like a fucking idiot?"

After he laid them in the enterance, he shut the door, and noticed he wasn't wearing his letterman jacket.

'I must have left it in Max's room.. When the fuck did I even take it off?'

He paced around his room, trying to think of what he should do. He could go to her room, risk being seen, and Victoria finding out, and get asked a shit ton of questions. Or she would come find him, jacket in hand, and still get asked a shit ton of questions.

'Fuck.'

Nathan pulled out his phone, and scrolled through his contacts, desperately hoping Max's number was there.

Thankfully enough, it was.

me: my jacket is in your room, I'll come get it later, so you better not fucking come see me

'Jesus fuck, Nathan. Why do you have to be such a dick?'

Nathan threw his phone at a wall, and sat down at his desk. He opened the drawer, brought out his pill bottles, and started taking them out one by one. After he swallowed them, he heard his phone buzz, and he scrambled to get it.

Max C: okay my room is unlocked so you can come get it whenever you want

Nathan threw his up hands, and hit his head against his bed.

'Max is still so nice, even after I act like a dick.'

me: thanks for last night btw

Max C: no problemo

'Who the fuck even says things like problemo anymore? That stupid dork.'

Nathan was still tired, so he plopped himself down on his bed, and shut his eyes.

'I can afford to skip Mr. Jefferfuck's class, at least.'
