Day 3/4:

"Come on! Your muscles can do better than that you wimp. Use some of that Harry Potter magic and transport that up."

A loud groan is emitted from three levels below.

"Why didn't you just get movers?!"

"To move three pieces of furniture?! No way!"

"But... ugh." I quickly run down to help Dani.

"Okay! Chill! I'm here to help!" I giggle, holding up the other end of sofa thingy (it's only one seater). We laugh our way up to my dorm and put it down.

"Okay, just the mattress and the desk and we're done!"

"Do you do this every year?"

"No... just this year actually. I usually just take online courses."

Another groan.

"No wonder. Anyway, let's get the mattress."

After another two episodes of 'ugh why's, we sit on my mattress, me laying on Dani's lap.

"Well, I think we're done."

"Well FINALLY we are."

"Well."

"Well."

"I'M HUNGRY I NEED FOOD LEGGO!!"

"NO!!" Dani whines, dragging me back. "I'm tired. Let's cuddle."

"Cuddle? What even I just met you!"

"And this is all very crazy so we can cuddle." Dani pouts and holds me like a bolster.

"I hate that song."

"Such unnecessary hatred."

...

"You're my friend right?"

"Hey, I don't know bout you, but we're going out. I don't usually let guys use me like a bolster."

"So you're my girlfriend?" I wiggle out of his tight grip.

"Don't push it," I fake glare at him as he backs down with a tiny grunt.

"I'll try again in 10 days."

"Whatever."

------------

"SINCE WHEN DID YOU HAVE A KEY TO MY ROOM?!" I scream the next day as I smell instant noodles.

"It was on the counter. It was calling out to me, man."

"How dare you invade my privacy!!" I squeal at his little things that have settled in MY room.

"I'll give you a key to my room? It's what friends do?" Daniel grins cheekily at me. I whack him on the head.

"Only because you're cute and you took me out on a date."

"So... instant noodle date?"

"Perfect."

"Wait nO DANI THE FIRE LEAVE IT THERE!!"

Boom.

"My gas just finished, I think."

"Well then thank god I cooked two portions!!"

That god damn smile.

I need repellent.
