Roommates | Care

L : "I'll care for ya like
nobody has before."

It was Monday and the two haven't spoken since they got back from eating pancakes at Jack's. Zayn completely ignored her and that made Luna feel a bit sad that her own roommate wasn't talking to her. She wonders if it was her fault, or maybe Zayn just doesn't like her. Whatever it was, it was slowly eating her up.

Her first class of the day was English, she took a seat high in the back of the class so she could see the projector at a wider view. Most people took a seat down in the front, but Luna liked it up here by yourself. She could focus more.

"Okay class—," the teacher started but was interrupted when a boy walked in late.

"Sorry," Louis apologized and made his way in the back of the class, sitting next to Luna. He looked at her and smiled, "Hey cutie."

"Hi Louis," Luna giggled. "Next time, be on time."

Louis scoffed, "I don't give a fuck honestly. I'll show up when I wanna show up."

"Amen," Luna and Louis high gives which earned a few stares from people down below.

"So..how's Zayn?" Louis asks wiggling his eyebrows.

"I think he hates me," Luna says frowning.

"Yeah, I know but don't worry he'll warm up, kinda," Louis chuckled.

"How do you know him?" Luna asks curiously.

"Well, I'm his campus buddy," he tells her. "They thought I was a good guy so they left me to watch out for him, ya know?"

Luna nodded, "That's sweet."

"Yeah I know," Louis chuckles. "He's literally one of a kind."

"What do you mean by that?" Luna asks.

"Well, Zayn is autistic," Louis tells her.

"Oh," Luna spoke quietly. "I-I didn't know that."

"Most people don't know, and it's wrong when people judge him," Louis says shaking his head. "He may be a little different, but he's a still a person. He's just like the rest of us, because if you think about it, we're actually all different, but at the same time we're all the same."

It took a moment for everything to process in Luna's head. She didn't see Zayn like he was different or not normal. She saw him as a person who just needed a little loving.

After English was over, Louis and Luna said their goodbyes and parted their ways. Next she had math, that class went by fast because she got her work done. After that she had French, and that class was slow, well because Zayn was on her mind.

She knew that deep down he was a sweetheart. Maybe it was hard for him to show it. There was just something about him that kept Luna on her toes. Sharing dorms with him has been different for her. Even though she doesn't make a big deal about it, being with him meant something to her.

Later on the day, the sky had turned dark and black clouds came rolling in. Soon enough it started to rain and the thunder started to roar. Luna hated thunderstorms, it reminded her of dark times in her past. But she tried to tough it out, her main priority was to get back to her dorm.
