     I finally reached campus, my arm feeling a little exhausted from walking for so long while hauling this suitcase. I ended up finding my own way to our dorm building after wandering for almost ten minutes, my arm was basically giving me a big middle finger by being pained as hell. I opened up the front doors that led to the common room. Already, I saw my classmates hanging out and talking with each other. Zota caught sight of me, along with Kazu. They smiled and jogged over.

     "There's the ink boy himself!" Zota said with his usual excited tone, Kazu was beside him. Looking down at my suitcase and noticing my my arm was a little wobbly.

     "Do you need help with that Nosido? It seems heavy for you."

     "Huh? Oh! No I'm okay, thank you for offering though... Buuut I am gonna go and find my room already so I don't have to keep holding this thing." I chuckled softly before walking over to the stairs, Zota caught up and led me to the floor they had their rooms on and had saved a room for me next to both of theirs. "Thanks for helping me find the room guys, I appreciate it."

     "No problem Nosido, I'm going back down to the common room though, I'll see you guys later!" Kazu waved as he went back downstairs.

     "So, you need help unpacking at all, man?" Before I could respond, Zota was already opening my door for me and holding it open, I smiled at him faintly before walking through and tossing my suitcase onto the bed, then flopping onto the bed next to my case. Letting out a loud sigh of relief "comfy... " I said with my face stuffed into the mattress. I felt the bed dip in slightly from added weight, so I raised my head to see who it was.

     Zota was sat beside me, giving me a friendly smile before pulling my suitcase to him and opening it up. "Sheesh man, you got a lot of stuff in here, no wonder it was so heavy." He chuckled softly as I took out one of my t-shirts from the case and a pair of shorts.

     "Oh, shut up! We're gonna be staying in these rooms so I wanted most of my things to be here." I hit his shoulder slightly as I stood up, walking into the bathroom and staring at the shower. I began to debate if I wanted to take one, and ended up deciding I would. I leaned my head back into the room and looked at Zota. "Hey, I'm gonna be taking a shower so if you want you can wait while im in it. Or you can head back to the common room." Zota nodded in response, I then pulled my head back inside the bathroom and shut the door, starting the shower up.

     After about twenty minutes or so, I turned the shower faucet off. Stepping out and grabbing a towel as I started to dry myself off, after I did so I got dressed in the clothes I had grabbed, I took one last look at myself in the mirror, adjusting my dark purple hair so it wasn't directly in front of my eyes. I stepped out of the bathroom. As soon as I stepped out, I saw Zota passed out in my bed, snoring softly and drooling a little. Did I really take that long in the shower? I walked over, pushing his shoulder slightly.

     "Hey, Zota. Wake up.." I pushed his shoulder a few more times before he let out a soft grumble, turning over onto his side.

     "Just a few more minutes.." He said groggily before drifting off back into sleep. I chuckled softly and pulled my suitcase to me, starting to take my clothes out and putting them in my closet. Just like he said, after a few minutes longer he sat up in bed, yawning and rubbing his eyes. His hair was a little messy now and he still seemed half asleep.

     "How was the nap, sleepy head?" I said as I took the last set of clothes out of my suitcase, Zota simply chuckled and gave a thumbs up in response before he rubbed his eyes. Once done with putting my clothes away I grabbed some of the posters and set them aside before putting my suitcase on the floor, Then flopped into bed beside Zota.

     "Mmm, so you get to sleep while I don't?" He chuckled softly, looking down at me.

     "Well it's my room, and I'm not trying to sleep. I'm just lying down." I looked back up at him, smiling slightly as he scooted back and sat up against the wall. He soon pulled his phone out and thought for a few moments.
