Roommates (boyxboy)

5. The Punishment

"Michael, stand up and start cleaning!"

I was mopping the cafeteria floor properly while Cole just sat in a chair playing his nintendo 3ds. This guy never gets tired playing.

"Stop calling me Michael, midget"

"But Cam calls you Michael"

"He's my cousin. I hate being called Michael. Only family members can call me Michael"

"Whatever, just start cleaning"

I decided to start calling him Michael, just to annoy him. He calls me "midget" anyway.

I turned to the clock on the cafeteria wall and it's still 7pm. We need to finish this as early as possible because I want to go to sleep early.

I looked back to Michael and he's still playing with a really concentrated look. I stomped to his direction and grabbed his ds, shutting it in the process.

"Hey! I did not save it's progress. It was nearly completed too. What's your problem midget?!"

"My problem is, you're not working!! Start working so we can finish this early!"

"We'll never finish this is one night so why bother trying? Give me back my ds"

He reached out for his ds but I step back and ran to the corner. I may be short but I can run pretty fast. I guess the advantage of being short is that you're light and can move quickly.

"Nope!"

I said popping the "p" to annoy him. He just glared and ran to catch me. Before he can close our distance, I ran around the cafeteria.

"You can't catch me Michael. I'm pretty confident with my feet"

I challenged him. I swayed my butt in his direction not knowing that he is really close.

He caught my waist. He carried me to a chair. He put his hands on both of my sides, trapping me.

"You're not that fast midget."

He grabbed the ds from my hands and walked away. He easily caught up with me. I am pissed off.

I grabbed the nearest chair and throw it in his direction. He dodged the chair which pissed me off more. The chair landed near his feet and broke.

"Hey! That was dangerous!!"

The cafeteria doors opened. Cam and another guy entered. Cam examined the room and sighed. He sat in a chair and motioned us to come closer.

"Michael give me your left hand and Rye, your right hand"

We both obeyed Cam and held out our hands. I can feel the cold metal on my wrist and heared a click. I look down and saw a handcuff on our hands. My right hand was handcuffed to Michael's left hand.

"Cam! What is this?!"

Michael tried to pull his hands away from mine but the handcuffs didn't even budge.

"Stop trying to get out Michael. That handcuff is real. I won't let you out unless you two behave. I would even sacrifice my weekends just to watch over both of you!"

Cam looks menacing. I can now see that he's related to Cole.

"You are not allowed to take it off. Also, you're not allowed to go out. Go to sleep guys"

Cam and the other guy, I still don't know his name, left.

"What are we going to do Michael?"

"We need to sleep"
