(Words in bold are Suga and the alien communicating through thought.)
Sugawara's POV

Will you please keep to yourself! I huffed in defiance.

Why? Is it getting hard to sleep? I said sassily back to the alien in my head. I could hear it tossing and turning in its bed.

Please, we have to go to work tomorrow! I want to make a good impression on my boss so I need my rest!-

You mean WE need our rest! You're not the only one in charge of this body! The alien groaned.

Sugawara please! It said. I fell quiet. I decided that if it didn't get any sleep neither would I. And if I was going to escape I wasn't going to do it with no energy. You do know that I can hear what you're thinking.

Ugh! I said loudly. I was getting tired of this.

Listen Suga I was-

Don't call me that!? I snapped. I hated hearing it speak my nickname. That name was reserved for friends only.

Speaking of... Friends. It spoke softly. I don't want to continue to argue with you all night and all day. I want us to have a mutual relationship. I would like us to be friends? I laughed

Friends?! Are you crazy! Never! I would I want to be friends with a creature that tore me away from my family and ripped me of my control?! I spat. I felt the alien tense up.

Please Suagwara. You don't need to be nice to me, or even treat me like a friend. I just don't want you to yell at me all the time. It clouds my judgement and decision making. My body shifted so it was sitting up in the bed. I crawled out from under the covers and started to walk over the cold, stone floor to the kitchen of my odd studio apartment. I say me but it wasn't me who was controlling the body. The alien moved me towards the sink. It poured it's self a drink and sipped on it thoughtfully. I sighed.

Fine. But don't think I won't give up. I flashed thoughts of my past life at the alien. Images of my volleyball team, my mother and father, my Diachi. It winced.

Thank you, Sugawara. Slowly it moved back to the bed and slid under the covers. It wasn't long before both me and the alien were fast asleep. We dreamt about the same thing, seeing as we both shared the same brain. We dreamed about the aliens past lives. It lived in a planet inhabited by huge bugs. It was one of them. It had wide, thin wings that looked like lace. The bugs had two heads, one for creativity and attraction, the other for mathematics and computing. The bugs flew through the skies and could swim as well. In fact they lived under water, although on this odd planet, the water was thick like jelly. I was enjoying this dream. In it, the alien and I were soaring through the beautiful pink coloured skies. There were also two suns lying heavily on the horizon. It was beautiful.

When the alien woke up, it was a bundle of anxiety. Being used to my old teammate Hinatas random bursts of nerves before a game, I tried to comfort it. Although my heart wasn't in it.

Don't get worked up. It's nothing to worry about. I knew the alien was worrying about its work. All the aliens had a job assigned to them as they landed. Some even applied for different ones if they weren't interested.

I'm so afraid. What if I don't get the job!

WE, not you. I said stubbornly. Just get out of bed and get ready. Go have a shower. The alien obeyed and crawled out if the bed. They moved towards the bathroom and started the tub once they were there. Also, weird question but what should I call you? Do you have a name? I've just been calling you Alien.
