“Here we go,” He said inserting his key, “room 315. After you.” He said as he opened the door.

We entered and it’s not as big as mine. Everything was all in one room. There were dividers though. It’s not that big compared as to what I have, but it’s still amazing. What caught my eye was the giant flat screen he has, that X-Box, that laptop and of course, a router. For a boy’s room this is pretty neat and organize.

“It’s not that big. But I worked for it and it’s mine so I love it.”

When Kelvic said, “He worked for it.” I kind of felt guilty. I got my dorm off my dad’s income and I didn’t even broke a sweat for it or anything, and to complete the pyramid, I only found out about it when I got here. Douchebag level: 999999999

“Want anything? It’s already 7 so, yeah, dinner?”

“Just whatever you can.” I said with a smile, I don’t want him to stress out what food to cook for me. I like food so I eat anything good and edible.

I went over to his X-Box and checked what games he had, Fifa no doubt about that, Black Ops and – Just Dance 4.

Just Dance 4? So he does dance! Oh, my God. I almost burst into laughter, but I managed to hold it back. See, Nath has an X-Box at home and I play a lot of Just Dance there, so yeah. This is the only game that makes me move my ass (literally), so thanks.

While he was making dinner, I decided to watch some TV. I skipped through the channels ‘till I found Cartoon Network and just my luck, Adventure Time is on.

“Adventure Time, come on grab your friends, we’ll go to a very distant land. With Jake the dog, Finn the Human the fun never ends, Adventure Time!”

I love that show so much I don’t even know why. I’m kind of a 5 year old trapped in a 17 year old’s body.

“Here’s dinner.” Kelvic announced as he made a goofy-cheeky smile, holding up a tray. I helped him with the tray and placed it on the table in the living room. Mac & Cheese and diet coke? Okay then.

“I’m not that good at cooking.”

“As am I, Kelvic.” I grabbed the fork and tasted the Mac ‘n’ Cheese. It’s so creamy and cheesy and the flavors are exploding. Like what the fuck I never thought this sensation can be created by Mac ‘n’ Cheese. Not fathoming this. At all.

“What the heck dude?! I thought you couldn’t cook.”

“I can’t.” He said as he sat down next to me.

“Well, how come this tastes so good?” I said as I got some from my plate and brought the fork to his mouth, “Here try it.” He was kind of kind of shocked with what I did, but I guess he let it pass and for a second there, he chewed his food, swallowed it and muttered, “Wow, that is pretty good.”

“I told you so.”

He chuckled and when he looked at the telly and saw Adventure Time was on, he shot me a “this” look. You know, that look when you did something weird and someone does this sort of shocked look. Yeah, that look.

“Umm, ugh Adventure… Time?”

“I still love Cartoons.” He nodded and we continued eating. Afterwards, he’s sort of laughing along with me. I guess he’s enjoying it now.

After a while, I checked the time and it was already 8:30 pm, so I decided that maybe it’s time to go home now.

“Hey Kelvic, I’ll go home now.” I stood from my sit and so did he. He turned the telly off and followed me outside his dorm.

“I’ll walk ya to your dorm?”

“What?” Woah, “No, it’s okay. You don’t have to.” I said a bit flattered that he would do that, even though we aren’t dating.

“Are you sure?”

“Definitely. Kelvic, my dorm’s 3 buildings away from here and I’m 17. Relax there, would you?”

“Okay, than. Well, good night.”

“Good night.” I gave him a proper hug and let go after a little while. I went inside the lift and as the door closed, I was still looking at him. His beautiful smile plastered across his face with eyes to match.

As I lay down on my bed waiting for my sleep to take me away, I can’t help but wonder, should I? Should I let Kelvic in my life? Should I trust him? Is he worthy to enter my godforsaken kingdom? I honestly don’t know. Maybe, I’m just blinded by the kindness his showing towards me, but what if it’s not even kindness? Why can’t I just be normal like everyone else? Why do I have Trust Issues towards everyone? I don’t get this. I’ll just… bye.
