Ell paced around her dorm room. She was stressed to the T. Her major was one of the hardest courses. She was losing her shit at the moment.
Tom opened the door and threw his bag down. He looked at Ell, she was obviously in distress. Tom placed his laptop on the desk then walked over to Ell.
He and Ell shared a room because they were planning on going to the same college. Plain and simple. They managed to convince a few people and here they were. The difference in people were obviously present by the decor.
"What's up?" He asked.
Ell groaned and just continued to pace. Tom grabbed her arm. He pulled her over to his bed and sat her in his lap. He handed her the closest sweatshirt, it just so happened to be his.
"Calm down." He said and put the sweatshirt in Ell's hands. Ell slid it on. She felt relief in being covered. Ell sighed. Tom rocked her back and forth.
"I'm just so stressed." Ell said and laid her head on Tom's shoulder. "This material is just so hard."
"Well, let me help." Tom said.
Ell laughed. "Tom your major is music, that's completely different from mine."
"That doesn't mean it's not hard!" Tom said.
"I know that. I share a dorm with you, remember?"
"Just let me check the stuff out." Tom grumbled. Ell giggled and pinched Tom's nose. She got up and grabbed her book. She sat next to Tom and opened the book up.
"Ah, math." Tom said. "Ya' know surprisingly, I'm good at math." He winked at Ell. Ell rolled her eyes. They stayed up late studying with each other. At 4 a.m. both of them were yawning. Tom wrapped Ell in his arms and closed the book.
"Sleepy time." Ell murmured. Tom nodded and cuddled up with her. They both fell asleep on Tom's bed.
