"Hello Josh." Tyler said and sits up in te bed. He smiled at the kitten. "We're going home today." He said and looked down. "Or, the place we're going to call home for the next four years." He said as tears dripped down in his pillow. Josh climbed up the bed and cuddled up next to Tyler. "Thansk, Josh." He said and stroke his gray soft fur.

Tyler packed all his things in his car and put josh back in the box. Josh didn't really have to be in the box, he was a very calm cat, but Tyler didn't want to take any chanses. Tyler wasn't sure if going to have Josh in his dorm though. He was going to have his parents take care of him. He was pretty sure there wasn't aloud animals in the dorm. Tyler opend a new redbull and threw the old one in the pile of empty containers. Josh jumped up as the containers rattled. "I'm sorry Josh." Tyler said and stroke Josh's back. Josh purred and laid down again.

As tyler saw the building he woke up. Not like he was sleeping, But he realized. That whatever happed now was his new normal, His future, his life.

"Hello, and welcome to-" an middle aged woman said. Tyler's legs had carried him all the way from his car to the front desk without him noticing. His breathing was heavy and fast."are you okay?" She said and looked shocked. "Y-yeah." He said and calmed down. He could not get a panic attack now. His firts impretion on the people was him allmost crying, wow Tyler! "Are you sure?" The woman said and looked over at him. "Yeah." He said and looked down. "Okay, so are you here for school?" She said and smiled over at him. "Yeah, music." He said and smiled. "Okay." She said and typed something i on her computer. "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't get your name." She said and looked up at him. He blushed and looked down. "Tyler Josheph." He said and smiled shyly. "Okay Tyler." She said and smiled.

Finally, he took at deep breath and walked in.
There was no one there then he remembered.

"Uhm, is it maby possible to not get a roommate?" I asked and looked down. "Yeah, Abselutly. There are many people that doesn't want a roommate. There is three rooms left so if you want you can have the biggest one." She said and winked at me. "Yeah, thank you." I said and smiled back.

He smiled and laid down in the bed. "Shit!" He whispred and ran down stairs. He walked fast to the lobby and asked if the dorms was pet friendly. "Yes, we fixed that around a month ago. So pets are alloud, but you have to have it in your dorm, not in the halls." She smiled "Okay, thank you." He said and walked fast out to his car.

"Hi, Josh. Sorry for being so late." He said and picked up a bag and the box Josh was in. "Uhm, I'm sorry for interupting." A boy with a chocolate colored mohawk said, or it used to be a mohawk now it was way too outgrown. Tyler jumped, he didn't see him coming. "Oh, did I scare you? I'm sorry." He blushed and looked down. "No, no it's fine." Tyler said and laughed. Josh meowed. "No, Josh. Be quiet, I'm trying to have a conversation." He said and lauged at his cat. Tyler looked up at the boy, he looked shocked. "What?" Tyler said and looked at the boy. "My name is Josh too! Or it's actually Joshua, but my family calls me Josh." He said exited. "Cool!" Tyler joined in. "I'm Tyler and this is my cat, yeah.. Josh." He said and smiled. "So what did you say before?" Tyler said and lauged. "Yeah, that. Where are the dorms? I'm new." Josh said and smiled at the ground. "I can show you if you want, I'm so bad at explaining." Tyler said an lauged. "Yeah, that sounds good. I'm bad at remembering." He said and smiled.

They walked to Tylers dorm. Tyler opened and walked in. Josh followed.  The walls was white, the floor was dark oak and there was a small window where there was a desk and in the corner of the room was a beanbag. On the other side of the room was a bed and a door in to a bathroom.

"Wow!" Josh said and walked around. Tyler liked Josh, he seemed so kind. "It'll get better when I get everything up." Tyler said and smiled at Josh, he seemed so exited. Josh walked over to the drawings that were scattred around on the desk. "Yeah, my sister is pretty good at drawing." Tyler said and smiled. Josh looked through the drawing, they were nice. Some had flowers and other had people that looked like Tyler and another girl with blonde hair. He picked up one he really liked. "Maddie, my sister drew this one to my birthday. The night before we danced, and my parents took a picture of us. She wore a long beatyfull dress, she looked stunning. And we danced for hours. She drew it and gave it to me. She said it was her best piece." Tyler said and wiped a tear. "I'm sorry, I just miss her. Thats all." He said and smiled to Josh. "I understand." He said and looked at his hands.

"Do you want to go see your room now?" Tyler said and looked at Josh. "Yeah." He said and walked out of the room. Room 262 it was only one room seperating them. "Dude!" Tyler said exited. "We're allmost neighbours!" Tyler smiled and looked at him. "Yeah." He said and opened the door.
