Chapter 2
I listened to Music as I doodled in my sketchbook. I pulled my earbuds out and set them Down on my bed. I went walked out of my bedroom and into the hallway. I could hear loud Laughing, yelling, and Video game noises from the main room. I rolled my eyes. I walked out to the living room and walked to the fridge. I heard a loud whistle. I looked out of the corner of my eye to see one of Elijah's Friends, Dylan I think his name was.
"She's Look a Mess, But she still THICK!" He exclaims. I roll my eyes and flip him off.
"Ooh! A Baddie!" One of his friends jokes and they all laugh at the remark. I opened the fridge to find that All the Root Beers that I bought 2 days ago with a sticky note with My name on them, were gone.
"Who the F*ck drank all my sodas?!" I exclaim angrily, turning to the group of boys. I glared at Elijah who hid the Root beer in his hands behind his back. Totally not obvious! I point my finger at him. "If you die in your sleep, you F*cking know why." I spit.
"Ooohh! Elijah's in trouble!" One of his friends, Cody, laughed. I rolled my eyes and slumped back to my room. I sat there, pacing, trying to calm myself down when I heard a knock at my door. I gripped the roots of my hair.
"Who is it?"
"Ya boy Cronk." I sighed.
"Come in." I open the door.
"You okay?" He asks.
"I've been living with him for a week and He's already a nightmare." I groan, sitting on my bed. Braden sat next to me on the bed.
"He's a good guy once you get to know him." Braden sighed.
"Well, I know that He has no regard for personal space and he laughs when his friends Wolf whistle at me." I groan angrily. "He's just so utterly stupid and immature! He's 19 not 6!"
"I know I know... He can be a major b*tch." Braden sighs.
"I'm this close to moving in with Denis and Alex." I mutter through gritted teeth, holding up my thumb and index finger which were almost touching.
"Just... Try to get know him, maybe?" Braden asks me.
"I'll try. Not today though. I've got class." I mutter.
Great! Wonderful! We have an assessment that makes up 30 % of our grade, IN TWO DAYS! I mope to my dorm and drag myself past Elijah's friends, who were still here- and Into my bedroom I go! I sat down at my desk and started to study. My door opened with out a knock and I knew who it was.
"My friends are staying the night!" Elijah exclaims, the out burst hurting my head. I have been studying for 5 hours and it was 10:30. Maybe Alex and Denis were still awake. Elijah walked out of the room.
"Close the do-" Elijah was out of sight before I finished my sentence. "or." I groan the end of the word. I picked up my phone and called Denis.
"ITS Dingo here!" Denis voice exclaimed. I winced at the loud sound.
"Listen man, I really need a place to stay tonight." I groan.
"Oh okay, You can come to our Dorm, Me and Alex were just gonna have a movie night." Denis tone softened.
"Thanks a lot." I thank.
"No problem." Denis hung up. I grabbed my backpack and put my laptop, sketchbook and several books filled with information for studying into my backpack. I headed out my dorm and walked several buildings down to Denis and Alex' dorm. I knocked on the door and Alex answered. He let me in.
"What's wrong?" He asks.
"Elijah has all his friends over for the night and I have an exam to study for and just- UGH!" I groan.
"I think you should get some rest." He says, rubbing my back. I nod and head to the guest room where I stayed 2 nights ago. I dropped my stuff on the ground, flopped onto the bed and soon fell asleep.
I finished my 15th coffee today. I've been awake for the past 48 hours because of studying and the fact that Elijah's always so loud and obnoxious... I'm a mess. It's literally 2 am as I read a book on Shakespeare in the library. I sighed as I flipped the page.
"What are you doing?" Asks that all to familiar voice.
"Go away Elijah." I groan quietly, setting my hand on the page of my book. I noticed that my hands were shaking due to my caffeine intake. I turned myself to face the boy.
"It's literally 2 am." He marvels, staring at me. I sigh, annoyed.
"Let me guess, You were up late partying and when you went back to the dorm at about 1 am, you were just Sober enough to realize you have an exam today, so You went to study here but Braden told you to rest so that you were actually Sober before coming here. Am I correct?" I ask.
"How did you-"
"Your really predictable. And annoying. And Obvious... Did I mention annoying?" I groan. The 19 year old looked at his feet before gazing back up at me.
"Sorry if I annoy you." He gulped.
"Sorry doesn't cut it. Your not just Annoying but your Disrespectful, Cocky, rude, and Have no regard of personal space." I snap, staying quiet at the same time though. He rubbed his arm.
"Am I disrespe-"
"Yes! You laughed after your friend Wolf whistled at me!" I spit. "If your wondering if your cocky, Well, You do Flaunt your Last name all the time, Shove your freedom of choosing your career in my face, and you always brag about being amazing at everything which your not." The words sound venomous as they flow out of my mouth.
"I feel like a care about personal spa-"
"Since when?! You always just barge into my room, yelling loudly and You just take my stuff! One time I was looking up something on my phone and you just took it out of my hands! And not to mention the fact that You act like Every time you walk into a room people will treat you like a god!" Elijah gulped and his gaze fell to the ground.
"I've lost myself..." He mutters.
"What?" I ask, confused. He looked back at me. His hazel eyes were saddened and he looked like a lost dog. He opened his mouth but couldn't quite get the words out for about 10 seconds.
"I just... You probably don't believe me but I'm a huge Mamas boy and I haven't seen my family for a year not to mention that my other half- quite literally, My Twin Ethan, He goes to a Collage in Freaking Florida with his girlfriend and In that Time I feel like I've become an insecure wreck so I hide my feeling by being- what you said and-"
"Calm down, Elijah." I cut off his rant. I searched his face for any emotion other than sadness. "You can't just bottle up emotions like that." I say in a soft tone. "Just try to stop being so... What I said..." I search his eyes.
"I don't think I can."
