day 1 // 9:04 // aus university.
luke pulled into his parking space and sighs, he was already late. freshman orientation had started at 8:45 this morning; they had probably already finished with the presentation, and were probably already in their new dorms. he felt anxiety rise in his chest as he shuts the car door to start walking towards campus. he smiles at the receptionist and signs in. "luke hemmings, huh, pretty name for a pretty boy," the receptionist says and smiles. luke can feel his cheeks turn a light red, and he nervously plays with his lip ring. "oh. shy, are we?" luke looks down. fuck, why was he nervous? just say something, stop being so awkward. luke forces a smile, "just a little shy. and you are?"
"calum hood," he smiles. damn, his smile was contagious; luke starts grinning like an idiot. "so, calum, wha-" luke starts but calum cuts him off, "sorry to dissapoint, mr. hemmings, but you're already extremely late." lukes face falls a little as he sighs, "yeah, you're right. where do i need to go?"
"well, since you missed orientation, youll have to go straight to a dorm and pray your roommate knows what they're doing or that your roommate is nice enough to help you," calum states, "your dorm is room number 527, and your roommate is ashton irwin." luke asks for directions to dorm number 5, and calum asks for his phone. calum fumbles around for a few seconds before opening the maps app and typing in the address.
"ok thank you. i'll see you around, calum," luke says as he gives the boy a sweet smile, and as he turns to exit, calum responds, "that'll be mr. hood to you."

9:27 // aus university dorm.
as luke walks into dorm number 5, he feels his heart rate pick up. fuck, he was nervous to meet his room mate. what if ashton didnt like him? what if ashton was mean? what if he held obnoxious parties? what if he was too quiet? luke wasnt expecting perfection, all he wanted was a decent human being to live with. sharing a few interests with ashton would be amazing, and luke could deal with the occasional party.
he knocks on door 527 and waits a few seconds until he knocks again, "ashton? hello?? its luke, your room mate." no response. maybe hes out, luke guesses with a sigh of sadness. as he turns to leave, the door opens. "for fucks sake, did you not get a key?" ashton asks in annoyance, and luke stutters,"n-no?" he says, playing with his lip ring, "s-sorry, i should ha-" luke's anxiety makes him choke on his words, and he looks down, completely giving up on trying to finish his sentence. "ugh just get in and shut up," ashton says harshly, pulling luke's arm inside, and slamming the door behind him.
