(??? POV)

I walked down the freshman hall, looking at the numbers on the doors. I stop at dorm 117, knocking on the door. I was greeted by the familiar face if Peggy Schuyler, resident piccolo player for the Kings College marching band.

"George? What are you doing here?" she asked groggily, wiping her eyes.

"I need someone to talk to..." I said softly, looking down.

"You could've texted me!" she tutted, but stepped aside and let me in.

"I wasn't thinking..." I groaned and plopped down on Peggy's twin sized bed, rolling up in the yellow comforter.

It reminded me of my boyish youth, where all I wanted was fluffy blankets to curl up in. My boyish youth where I wore my hair fluffy as well, my mum always struggling to tame it.

"So, what do you need?" Peggy asked irriatably, laying on her spare bed and snapping me from my childhood thoughts.

"Well, I was wondering... Do you know anything about Alexander and John's relationship?? I know that they are dating, but do they seem to really love each other?" I asked hurriedly, peaking my head from under the blankets.

"They do. Why would you want to know? At two am at least?" Peggy said sleepily.

"I just don't want to loose Alexander to John... Alex is one of my closest friends besides you, Louise, and Abigail..." I sighed.

Peggy stayed silent.

"...Can I move in your dorm with you?" I asked after what seemed like an eternity. Peggy nodded.

"Tomorrow, okay?" she said, her voice laced with the arrival of sleep.

"Okay," I said groggily.
