Saving Me [MxM]

Chapter 09 (Part Three)

Nathan couldn't have been in his dorm more than fifteen minutes the next day when there was a knock on the door, making him jump slightly. Thomas was just coming out of the bathroom at the time, frowning. “Who's that? No one ever knocks. They just come in,” he said. Nathan looked at him and shrugged a little, walking over to the door and slowly opening it.

“

Surprise!”

Nathan was knocked back by the force of Justin's body colliding with his, sending both of them back into Thomas, who only stumbled a little at the contact, but didn't look too thrilled. “Justin? What the hell?” Nathan mumbled.

“

Well, you see,” Justin started, wrapping his arms and legs around Nathan much like he had at Varian's, “I figured here I could see you and tackle you and Varian can't yell at me for it, because let's face it, your boyfriend is scary, and you didn't come see me like you were supposed to, so it was a win-win situation for me,” he smiled. Nathan rolled his eyes, sighing heavily.

“That's great. Justin, this is my roommate Thomas. Thomas, this is my idiot, Justin.” Nathan introduced. If Justin was annoyed at that at all, he didn't have time to show it, because immediately after Thomas was looking him up and down with a small smirk.

“

Well hello there. Single?”

Justin frowned. “…No.”

“

Aw. Girlfriend?”

“No.”

Thomas' smirk turned slightly hopeful. “Boyfriend?”

Justin paused, looking up at Nathan. “...Uh...I don't...Nathan, what do I have?”

“

You have an Evan. Now get the fuck off me.”

Rolling his eyes, Justin released Nathan and sat on his bed instead, sighing loudly. Thomas however, was frowning. “Evan?” he asked Nathan curiously. Nathan shrugged a little.

“

His...attachment, shall we say,” he explained. Thomas nodded, and Justin shrugged a little before smiling widely.

“I told you I'd hunt you down at college,” he said. Nathan glared back, about to retort when their door opened again.

“

Jesus, what is this? I don't want to see any of you right now.”

“Well, that's too bad,” Skyler sighed, walking into the dorm with Vince in tow, surprisingly. “I wanted to drop by and see how my two favorite people were. You know, since I've been MIA and no one has seemed to notice,” she said with a raised eyebrow, falling into Nathan's desk chair. Nathan sighed, turning to Vince.

“

Okay, so what are you doing here?”

“Oh, I was in the neighborhood, thought I'd drop by.” Vince smiled, noticing Justin and raising an eyebrow. “Who's this?”

“

Justin.” Justin replied simply. Vince rose his eyebrows.
