This Is Your Heart (A Bastille Fan-Fiction)

The new roomate!

Later on Dan came round to our dorm. "Ahh! Dan! I haven't seen you in ages!" Orla exclaimed, pulling him into a big hug. "Hi Orla, I guess you really missed me then?" he chuckled. He looked round the dorm, inspecting it, almost until he looked up at us and said, "Nice, but mine's got an xbox and a pool table!" sticking his tongue out at us. God, he's so childish sometimes. "Come on, let's go round to mine, my roomate has ordered pizza!" he exclaimed, gesturing to the door. He opened the door and we followed him to his dorm.

We walked in and Dan walked over to a small fridge in their tiny kitchen and got out a beer. "Do you want one guys?" he shouted over the room. "Yeah, pass us one mate!" a man shouted. I turned round to see a guy with short, brown hair and a rather impressive moustache and beard sitting on the sofa on his laptop, he appeared to be on twitter. "Oh my god, look at the kitty!" he said, turning the laptop round to show us a picture of a cute little kitten sleeping. So this is what Dan meant by 'manchild', I thought to myself. "Oh, let me introduce myself to you two lovely ladies! My name is Kyle Simmons, lover of cats and other random things!" he said, shaking our hands. "So, what are your names?" he questioned. "I'm called Orla." Orla giggled, blushing. What was up with her? "Hello?" Kyle asked me. "Oh, sorry, I'm called Steph." I answered. Just then Dan put his iPod in the speakers and Arctic Monkeys started blurring out oof the speakers. I sat down on the sofa. "Oh, have you got the new album? It's great isn't it!" I exclaimed. "Yeah, I got it the other day, I love it!" Dan replied, before sitting down on the floor and throwing me a beer. I looked over to the corner of the room, to find a keyboard, guitar and a big shelf full of CDs. Dan had the biggest collection of CDs known to man, I swear. He was like, obsessed with music. "I see you brought your CDs!" I chuckled. "Yeah, and my keyboard. My mum wouldn't let me take the piano, so I had to settle for this!" he said. "Since when do you play guitar, Dan?" Orla asked, going over to the guitar and playing some chords. "Oh, I don't. That's Kyles." Dan said. Orla put the guitar back in its stand quickly before turning to Kyle and saying, "Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't know it was yours!" Kyle grabbed the guitar and replied, "Nah, its fine, play it whenever you want, you're really good!" Orla started blushing like crazy. "Well, er, th-thanks..." she said quietly. Just then ' Do I Wanna Know?' came on and Kyle leaned back in his chair and started playing along with the riffs. The pizza came and we decided to watch some films. "So, what should we watch?" Kyle asked, turning the TV on and flicking through the channels. "Urgh, there's nothing on." he groaned. "Well, if you're willing to watch it, I've got my Twin Peaks box set over there." Dan grinned. He was also obsessed with Twin Peaks, and basically anything to do with David Lynch, he was like Dan's idol. "Ok!" Kyle said and put the DVD on. 4 hours later, we were all falling asleep, aprt from Dan, who was sat on the floor, his eyes glued to the TV. I tapped him on the shoulder and he jumped, turning round. "I better get ack to my dorm, I'll see you tomorrow." I whispered, before waking Orla up and going back to our dorm. 

Orla and I got changed into our pyjamas and got into our beds. I liked sharing a dorm with Orla, it was like a sleepover every night. I thought Orla was asleep but I rolled over to see she was lying there, smiling at the ceiling. "What are you smiling for?" I asked. She rolled over to face me and said, "Oh, nothing." whilst trying to not to keep smiling, but failing. "Well, there obviously is, you're lying there and can't stop smiling...Wait, I know, you like Kyle!" I chuckled in realisation. "Shut up, I don't!" she giggled, throwing a pillow across the room at me. "Orla loves Kyle, Orla loves Kyle, Orla loves Kyleeee!" I teased. "Fine, maybe I do like him, a little bit..." she said, blushing. "Anyway, you can shut up now Steph, we've got classes tomorrow!" she said, before rolling over and going to sleep. "Night then, I'll leave you to dream about Kyle!" I chuckled. I lay back down and tried to go to sleep when my phone buzzed. I picked it up to find a message from Dan. 'Oh my god Bob just killed Madelyn! x' I laughed at this text. 'Yeah, Dan you know that you've watched it like a billion times you idiot! x' I texted back. Instantly I got a text back. 'Ah well, night. x' 'night x' I replied. Then I could finally get to sleep.
