Awkward

I looked around the classroom. The school was so small that there was only one period for each degree. So all the undergrad animators, cartoonists, graphic artists, realist artists, abstract artists, portraitists,  photographers, and cinematographers were all in one class with professors from each subject circling the room. I had chosen to sit next to my cute ginger roommate. I sat and drew him while he edited photos on his computer.  I bit my lips and erased furiously at his hair. I wasn't at the right angle to get it right. I peeked over at him again. His hair was slicked tidily back, without a single hair out of place. I drew a thin line and glanced back at him. As I did, he closed his eyes and put his fingers on his temple. 

"That is the thirty- seventh time you have glanced at me in an hour." he whispered to me, angrily. "I suggest you take a picture next time, for it will last a lot longer than my patience." 

I shivered at the sexy Scottish accent he spoke in. "Why take a picture when I can draw one?" I whispered back, smirking to hide how much he affected me.

A blush spread across his pale cheeks and he looked over at my sketchpad. "Are you drawing m- No! absolutely not, throw it away this instant!!" The glare he shot me was so fiery, I could feel myself sweating. 

"No way," I said, leaning close to him, and capturing his eyes with mine. He leaned back away from me. "I always keep my drawings, no matter how shitty they are, or whether or not the subject wants to be drawn. I don't give a fuck who or what I draw, just as long as it keeps me sane."  

Hux was quiet for a second, and he seemed to be reading my face like a book. Or more accurately, how an artist scrutinizes his subject. He seemed to be at a loss for words and so we just stared at each other. In a very, completely, totally awkward way. Finally, he pulled his eyes away and muttered, "Watch your mouth..." 

I smirked and began to say something when the bell rang. Hux immediately shut his laptop and strode out of the room as if he'd been stung by a bee.  I sighed. Looks like I scared another one away... he'd probably be requesting a dorm switch by the end of the night... Not that I wasn't used to it, or anything...

Huzzah!!! I'm so sorry that I haven't been able to publish much recently, I've been so busy with school and I've actually made it to where I will be graduating High School on November 9, 2018!!!!! I'm so happy!!! Then, hopefully I'll have more time to write and stuff. Well, guys, I need to figure out a way that ol' Huxy and Ky-Ky get together. Please leave me some comments and I will look through it. The person who suggests the most appealing idea will get the chapter of which they get together dedicated to them. Well... SO LONG FRIENDS (ROOMMATES)!!!

Love,
