The rest of the day goes by smoothly. Mrs. Norberry had already given you your assignment that you had to complete with Kahoot, so he suggested that you both go to his house after school to start it. His house was surprisingly close by, but you still had time to talk with him while you both walked.

"So Kahoot, since I don't really know you, care to tell me a bit about yourself?"

He doesn't reply right away, but eventually he turns to face you. "What do you want to know?"

"I don't know, anything really."

You both walk side by side, hands in your pockets. The wind blows softly, rustling the leaves and threatening to carry them away. The neighbourhood where Kahoot appears to be living isn't that bad, and you actually know some of his neighbours. They're all pretty nice, with of course a few exceptions.

"Umm...well, my favourite colour is basically all of them, I enjoy witty puns and jokes, and I like listening to techno music." He pauses for a moment, thinking, and you decide to ask him if he has any siblings.

"Not that I know of."

As you both walk, Kahoot rubs his hands over his arms and you wonder if he's getting cold. Before you get a chance to ask, he points to a building across from where you're standing.

"That's my house," he tells you, already heading towards it, and you run after him to catch up.

When you both arrive at his doorsteps, he barges into the house and kicks off his shoes onto the side of the carpet laying there.

"You can put your shoes there too," he instructs back at you, pointing to where his lay messily.

His house isn't huge, but it isn't exactly small either. There are two well worn couches in the living room, a small TV hung on the wall, and a coffee table in the middle with a candle on it. The candle burned softly and gave the home a cinnamon kind of smell. Even though his family had just recently moved, their house and halls were well decorated with photos. A particular one catches your eyes and you stop to look at it. It was a photo of an adorable Kahoot when he looked to be about 5 years old. A couple of feet away from you he starts speaking, and you turn your attention towards the much older version of Kahoot.

"My bedroom is this way. I figured we could just do the work in there." Without waiting for a response, he walks down the hall and stops abruptly in front of his room, causing you to bump into him. The door handle squeaks as he turns it, as do the hinges when he pushes it open. You peek your head inside the room, and let out a soft sound of awe as he walks past you. Shooting you a shy smile, he motions for you follow him inside the room as well. You take in the appearance of your surroundings and notice Kahoot smiling proudly beside you. You can see why; the room must have taken hours to set up.

The walls are completely covered celling-to-floor in photographs of famous sculptures and buildings, but the thing that really captures your attention are the drawings. Most of them are just quick sketches of designs, but some had intricate details and had obviously taken hours to do. You turn to look at Kahoot with an pleasantly surprised expression on your face. "Did you draw these?"

Still obviously proud, he shoots you a big smile. "Yep," he replies, popping the p.

Kahoot walks across the room and places down his bag beside his bed. Before he sits down he fixes the sheets and you decide it's alright for you to join him. You both make yourselves comfortable on the bed before he continues.

"When I was kid I always liked shapes and things, so when I got older I started drawing and doing stuff with them. Eventually it turned into architectural designs and here I am." He spreads his arms out, showing the images decorating his walls.
