Jack's POV:
I was laying on the bed, still cuddling up to Mark as me,him, and the guys were watching tv. We were watching something called Whose Line Is It Anyway? and it was a pretty good show. As we were watching, all of a sudden we heard the door open and saw a guy. He had on a weird mask, his hair was brown and messy, he had a backpack? I'm not sure but it had a handle and wheels. He looked around and sucked air through his teeth. "Ooooo, my fault, I'm just looking for my room, but I guess I read my number wrong." Then Felix got up and looked at the paper the stranger had. "Oh, you're looking for B234 not B231." "Oh, I feel embarrassed, I'm still getting used to be here." "It's fine,hey don't be a stranger tho, what's your name, fellow college man." "Well, sup, I'm Cry." Felix and I guess Cry shook hands and he pointed to everybody. "Well, this is Bob, that's Wade, that's Mark and that's Jack." As Felix pointed to me, I swear I could feel him studying me, like, he wanted to know something. He quickly shook his head slightly and waved. "Well, hey guys, I hope I wasn't interrupting anything." "Nope, in fact, join us, we got enough room." Just then, Felix was leading Cry to the tv where Bob and Wade were watching tv and he set his stuff down on the way. I cuddled into Mark more, getting a heavy atmosphere as Cry was near me. "Jack, you alright?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "You warm?" I shake my head and look at the tv and watched whatever they were watching. As were continued watching tv, Cry went to his weird big backpack thing(those who didn't get it, suitcase.It's a suitcase) and got out three plastic covered cases. He also got out a pack of canned drinks. I always saw things like Coke, Dr.Pepper, Fanta,etc., but I didn't recognize this drink. He went back to the circle and showed everybody the stuff. "Ahhhhh shit son, now this one knows how to have a good time." They patted his back and took the drinks and everybody opened one. I looked up and saw Mark watching them instead of joining them. "Mark, why aren't you joining them?" "I can't really drink." "Drink what?" "Beer, it's....a long story, but umm I can't drink it." "Beer? It kind of smells." "Yeah,but it'll do for anybody." As we were talking, I heard Cry talking and getting up. He walked over to us and handed two beers to us. "You guys want some?" "I can't really drink, it's a long story." He nodded and looked at me. "What about you?" I took the beer and he walked back over to the circle of friends while I stayed on the bed. "Do you guys think Jack should drink?" Mark said looking worried. "Aw, come on,it's not gonna be so bad,I mean, we don't know if he's a light weight." Felix said as I opened the can. I sniffed it and it was much stronger than I thought. I took one sip and almost choked. I held back a cough as I tasted it. "You ok?" Mark said as he held me. "I'm fine, the taste is weird, but at the time, not bad." He smiled as I said that and I took another sip. I started getting light headed and didn't realize I drank the whole can of beer. I held it in my hands as I felt my head get dizzy and my cheeks getting warm. I layed my head back on Mark's shoulder as the dizziness was taking over me. Everything was kind of a blur and all I could do, is hear what's going on. "Hey, you ok Jack?" "I-i'm fine." I said as I shook my head a bit. "Alright, it just looks like your a bit drunk." "What's drunk?"
Mark's POV:
"What's drunk?" Jack said as he looked at me. I keep forgetting that he doesn't know many human things. I sighed and took the can out of his hands. "Nevermind that, can you see?" He shook his head gently and looked at me again. His face was red and his head would loll from side to side every now and then. "I can only see blurs, everything is just shapes." I sighed and turned him around so he was facing me. His legs were on each side of mine and he put his head on my chest. I looked at the guys and saw they were starting up mortal kombat X. I saw Felix cheering on Bob as him and Wade started to face off. Then, Cry saw us and came over. "Is he alrigh?" "Yeah, he's a light weight." He nodded his head and looked at Jack. "So, how long you two been dating?" "Three months." "Hmm, where'd he come from?" I lifted my eyebrow up as Cry asked this question. I guess he was curious. "Ireland." "Ooo, cool, I had a friend from Ireland." "Really, cool." "Yeah, we nicknamed him Daiti but we never saw each other again." "Oh no, I'm sorry, well, I hope he comes up soon." "Yep, me too." Nothing but the sounds of the TV and the sounds of Felix cheering loudly could be heard. Then, I could've sworn that I saw Cry looking at Jack. I couldn't tell because of his mask but something was up. Then, he clapped his hands and started getting his large suitcase. "Well, it was fun, but I think I have to get going now." Then Felix came to Cry and slung his arm around his shoulder. "No way, you get to stay here and party with us dude." "Ar-are you sure?" "Hell yeah we're sure." Cry put his stuff down and walked with Felix to the TV with Bob and Wade. I watched Cry carefully when he moved. I had a suspicious feeling about him but I didn't know what.Cry's POV:
I've gotten there trust and now they want me to stay over. Perfect, I can get DNA from Jack and put the tracking device on him, then we can confirm that this is the little merman they've been looking for. Maybe then, I can be free from that hell hole and I can actually become friends with these guys. I smiled a bit at the thought that I could make friends with these people. I slightly looked back at Mark and Jack to see if Jack was still was still asleep and it seems like he is but Mark was on alert of me it seems like. Was I too suspicious, was I looking at Jack too much? I turned back to the TV and watched as Bob destroyed Wade in MKX. I let out my laughs and continued to have fun, so not to look suspicious. Now, let's see if I can keep this up.
