Well, this worked out perfectly, didn't it? Carlos was playing with Dude out on the Tourney field, before Dude ran into the forest, in which Carlos could not find him. After about an hour of looking for the campus dog that he kind of in a way stole, the sun started to set and he decided he should go back to his dorm and continue looking for him in the morning.

The moment Carlos walked into their dorm, Jay knew something was wrong. For one, Carlos looked upset, and secondly, he didn't see Dude. Ever since Ben introduced Carlos and Dude, they were near inseparable. Furrowing his eyebrows, Jay looking at Carlos and asked, "What's wrong man?"

Carlos shrugged and face planted his bed. He didn't really want to talk to anyone, even Jay. He pulled his blankets up over him, not even changing into pajamas and closed his eyes.

Jay, now knowing for sure that something was extremely wrong, peeled back the blankets and sat on Carlos's bed. "Come on, you're making me worry here."

Carlos, realizing that Jay wasn't going to give up anytime soon, mumbled a "I lost Dude." He faced away from Jay and pulled his blankets back over himself.

Now knowing what's wrong, Jay wanted to do anything he could to help. He decided that he would sneak out after Carlos went to sleep to go find Dude, and bring him chocolate of course. The recipe to making Carlos feel better was Dude and chocolate. "Get some sleep Carlos, I'm sure he'll turn up in the morning." Not having it in him to argue, Carlos just nodded and fell asleep.

After making sure that Carlos was asleep, Jay snuck out out of the dorm and began looking around campus for the lost dog (of course grabbing some chocolate in the process). He whistled and called Dude's name. After a hour and a half of searching, he was beginning to think that he wouldn't turn up. Dude, having perfect timing ran up to Jay and jumped into his arms. Jay laughed and pet his head before walking back to his and Carlos's dorm.

When he got to the dorm, he put Dude down, and wrote Carlos a quick note and placed it and the chocolate on Carlos's nightstand. Making sure not to wake Carlos, he laid in his own bed and fell asleep.

When Carlos awoke the next morning, he stretched and felt something warm and furry by his feet, he lifted his blankets and saw Dude peacefully sleeping by his feet. He smiled, still not sure how Dude got back in the dorm. He looked over to his nightstand and saw the note and chocolate. He grabbed them both and looked at the note with a smile on his face. 'I told you he would turn up in the morning, also enjoy your breakfast.'

Jay, hearing Carlos's rustling woke up and looking over at him. He sat up and stretched before yawning. Noticing that Jay was awake, Carlos looked over at him, smiling brightly. "Thanks for finding Dude, and the chocolate."

Jay shrugged and smiled at him. "I hate seeing you upset, had to fix it somehow."

Carlos laughed. "You are a cheesy dork sometimes, you know that?"

Jay smiled, a genuine smile, which could only be brought out by Carlos. "Only for you."

Carlos blushed a bit, "You're just a big dork."

"Oh, so we're talking about you now?"

Carlos rolled his eyes, "No, I'm pretty sure I was talking about you."

Since it was a Saturday, they just spent the rest of the day lounging around in their dorm and being dorks together.
