Trailing after Headmaster Gon and House Mother Ryoba, I scrunch my nose in distaste.

It stinks in this place.

We come to a stop in front of room 701. I stand awkwardly as Ryoba tries key after key before the door opens. I'm pleasantly surprised at how large the dorm actually is. There are 3 long bunk beds and one smaller bed a little further away. A small kitchen, consisting of a oven with a stove top, some wooden cabinets and a miniature fridge.

Not bad, especially when the school provides all meals for its onsite students. My gaze drifts to the bathroom.

Everything is so clean and neat.

"The boys will be returning soon, we shall step out as you unpack your things. The top bunk is yours and here is your storage space. Inside you will find a padlock and key for when you are not in the room."

Ryoba's words wash over my head like a wave and their footsteps are background noise to my thoughts.

This isn't what I thought it would be. The whole reason I came here was to lay low and fade into the background then here I am, forced to share a dorm with some random male carnivores whom I know nothing about.

Sluggishly, I begin to unpack my belongings. Placing them neatly into my assigned storage, I reminisce about the last time I wore certain items.

The last time I wore this jumper I was being chased by carnivores through the black market after I spritzed them with water from a spray bottle. Oohh the last time I wore these pants is when they kicked me out of my old school for being involved in a fight against a Bear! Hehehe, when I wore this bra last-

My head snaps towards the door as three males stroll in, speedily shoving the bra back in the bag and facing them uneasily. We all stand tensed, staring at each other as the House Mother and Headmaster reappear. As Ryoda begins to speak, I find myself spacing out once more as I spot Jack and Legosi loitering at the doorway.

"-I trust you all to look after her and be kind, just as you always are."

Jumping slightly as she places her hand on my arm, the Headmaster finishes off Ryoda's words before they leave. I stare at the males awkwardly before Jack decides to make his presence known.

"Well isn't this going to be good fun! I'm Jack, again. Just in case you forgot. And you should remember Legosi, the silent type. These are Collot, Durham, Miguno and Voss! By the looks of it, they decided to give you the bunk above Legosi. Beware, he's a snorer."

I laugh heartily at Legosi's embarrassed expression at Jack's comments and playfully nudge him.

"It's okay Legosi, I won't tell anyone."

Jack and the others chuckle along with my jesting as Legosi's face turns bright red to which he quickly ducks into his bunk and pulls the small curtain across. We settle into a comfortable silence as we all do our own things, them unpacking their school books and me, well, unpacking my life belongings.

As the sun begins to dip, Jack kindly offers me a seat with them for dinner which I accept. I soon find myself trailing behind the awkward boys as we make our way to the dining area. The room is loud and lively as we enter and shuffle towards an empty table.

People surrounding give me odd looks as I sit down with these males and I find myself growing annoyed. Collot nudges my side and mimics a nearby Rabbits facial expression which makes me huff out a chuckle while the others laugh. It's amazing how quickly a joke can diminish an atmosphere.

Voss is quick to ask me some questions,

"What school did you go to before Cherryton?"

"Why did the Housemother and Headmaster make you share a dorm with us?"

"How do you get your fur that soft?"

"When did you meet Jack and Legosi?

"Have you met Louis?

And I answer them all, his innocent curiosity making me feel very serene. Noticing Legosi's ears perk at my answers, I drag him into the conversation.

"So Legosi,"

He looks up stiffly,

"You really like egg sandwiches don't you?"

Legosi's eyes bulge and his jaw goes slack. Jack and the others howl in amusement as they spot the small, packaged sandwich. Legosi is quick to clear his throat before I hear him speak for the first time.

"uh- yeah, I do. Their my favorite."

Oh. My. God.

That voice.

My panties are hypothetically dropping.

I speedily compose myself before I speak, obviously too fast as my voice cracks.

"Mi- Mine too, haha."

My head snaps down. Shoveling food into my mouth as an excuse not to speak as Durham and Miguno side-eye me with a suspicious look.

I'm completely fine, completely cool. Like a cucumber, yes! Cool as a cucumber! Totally not fantasizing about a male I've just met. Nope, not me. Wrong bitch.

At my lack of interaction, dinner flies by and we are soon walking back to the dorms. I observe as the Herbivores scatter away from my dormmates. Glancing up at them, I guess I understand why. Glancing at Voss then thinking about how these males have treated me, that understanding disappears.

These males have been nothing but kind and respectful to me and from what I've seen, to everyone who crosses their path. I feel my mood sour as we reach our room. Ducking beneath Collots arm as he opens the door, quick to grab my night clothes and sprint towards the bathroom.

"I'm first, you complain and I'll spritz your pillows with the strongest perfume I own."

They all freeze in place as I close the bathroom door. From inside the bathroom I hear a quiet voice speak up.

"Please don't, most perfumes make me sneeze."

I chuckle to myself before changing into the pale blue singlet and matching knee length, baggy shorts. Unlocking the door and stepping out, I brush past Miguno and mutter.

"It's okay, most make me sneeze as well."

Feeling his gaze on the back of my head as I put my uniform away and jump up onto my bed. I look at them all and smile sleepily, I climb under the blankets and right after the lights go out, I speak up.

"Goodnight, Guys."

And then I'm out like a light.
