Seán groaned quietly when his phone alarm went off, sleepily shutting it off to go back to sleep before yelping in surprise when a pillow hit him in the face. "What the hell?!"

"That's for waking me up asshole." Anti muttered groggily, glaring at Seán with a scowl before rolling to face away from him and go back to sleep.

Seán rolled his eyes and tossed the pillow onto the floor, sitting up and stretching before swinging his legs over the side of the bed and hopping off onto the floor.

"Should probably get breakfast..." Seán mumbled, looking around the room before groaning quietly. "I never picked up groceries yesterday after moving in."

Seán noticed poptarts over on Anti's side of the room and considered taking some before deciding that he didn't want Anti to kill him, so he got dressed and headed down to the first floor to call an Uber and get groceries.

"Hey Jack!"

Seán paused by the kitchen, smelling the delicious aroma of pancakes. He poked his head in to see Robbie cooking at the oven, Jameson sitting at the table with his journal.

'Would you like to eat breakfast with us?' Jameson wrote in his journal and showed it to Seán with a smile.

"Yes please, thank you guys." Seán nodded with a smile and walked in, sitting at the table. "Was just about to call an Uber and get groceries, but I just woke up and I'm tired." He chuckled, fighting a yawn.

"That's a mood, I'm always tired." Robbie shrugged, flipping a couple of pancakes onto a plate and handing them to Seán. "Your roommate hiding in his room?"

"Kind of...my alarm woke him up too, so he threw a pillow at me and went back to sleep." Seán sighed as he took the plate, grabbing syrup from the counter and drizzling it on his pancakes.

'That Anti fellow seems rather rude.' Jameson wrote with a frown, adjusting the brim of his bowler hat.

"Once classes start tomorrow, I probably won't see him too often." Seán shrugged, taking a bite of his pancakes. "My first class of the day is general statistics."

"Ew, math first thing in the morning? No thank you. I think I've got some kinda English class or something, I forgot." Robbie cooked the rest of the pancake batter, placing the pancakes on plates for himself and Jameson before handing Jameson his plate.

'I start with a writing composition class!' Jameson wrote with a smile before taking a bite of his breakfast.

"Hey Jack, you mentioned earlier that you were gonna get an Uber and get groceries, you want me to take you instead?" Robbie offered as he sat down with his plate.

"Sure, thanks!" Jack smiled as he finished eating, rinsing his plate in the sink before setting it back down on the table.

"Sorry I know I'm slow, just a sec." Robbie chuckled as he started eating, Jameson finishing his breakfast before rinsing his plate and stacking it on top of Seán's.

"Nah you're good, thanks for breakfast by the way! It tasted great." Seán stood up and stretched a bit.

"No problem. Oh, and sorry in advance, my car's kinda messy." Robbie chuckled as quickly ate and set his plate on the stack.

"I don't mind." Seán shrugged, watching Jameson clean the dishes in the sink.

"Cool. Ready?" Robbie tossed his keys from hand to hand as he walked to the doorway, his keychains jingling.

Seán nodded, waving goodbye to Jameson before following Robbie outside to his car.

Robbie unlocked the door and got in, shoving trash into the back from the passenger seat before opening the door for Seán.

"Thanks." Seán smiled and got in, buckling up as Robbie started the car and drove off.

They sat in comfortable silence during the drive until Robbie pulled up to the store and parked, getting out and starting to walk to the store before getting grabbed from behind with a hand over his mouth and slammed him into the car. "Give me your money, now."

Seán sat frozen, eyes wide as he watched a person dressed in all black press a gun to the back of Robbie's head with his finger over the trigger.

There was a flash of red and the person in black was suddenly on the ground, a guy in a red jumpsuit with a blue fabric mask tied around his eyes standing over him.

"Robbie!" Seán got out and hugged him tight, Robbie clinging to him with a shaky sob.

"You guys safe?" The guy in red asked, making sure the guy on the ground was unconscious before calling the cops.

"Y-yeah-" Seán paused, looking him over. "Jackie, is that you? Why the hell are you dressed like that?"

The guy in red chuckled nervously and rubbed the back of his neck. "I don't know who you're talking about, I'm Jackieboy-Man!" He ran off before Seán could question him further, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Damn he's fast...I'm positive that's Jackie." Robbie chuckled, hugging himself. "He's a nice guy and all, but he's a horrible liar."

"Yeah, I'm sure you're right...I'll try and get my groceries quickly so we can get back to campus." Seán walked into the store, staying close to Robbie.

A/N: I know this chapter isn't that great, but I've been kinda stressed and motivation has been low lol
