A mug of coffee and a banana sat beside you, your books and notes scattered across the kitchen island. The windows surrounding you and your roommates’ shared apartment let in the remnants of the early morning sunrise through open curtains. You’re hunched over your books, wrapped in a thick jacket. Your lip was between your teeth as you frantically wrote as much information as you could onto the one sheet of paper you’re allowed to bring for your final. You studied but…you could have studied more. And this final was kind of important. Heh. Well, it is what it is. Your cramming skills have never failed you either, so hopefully, they pull through this time.
You checked the time on your phone. It’s 7:45 am. You’ve been up for the past 45 minutes, having showered and prepared everything you needed the night before so you could have as much time as possible to cram.
15 minutes passed and you soon heard the sound of shuffling feet coming from the hallway.
You look up and smile softly at one of your roommate's state--their round glasses sitting atop their nose and their head of dark curls somewhat messy from sleep. He blinked, trying to blink the sleep out of his eyes.
Soon he’s beside you, peering over your shoulder curiously.
He’s referring to the title you’d put at the top of the sheet of paper.
You hummed, reaching for a highlighter and boxing something you’d just written.
“Good luck,” He said, nudging your shoulder playfully as he watched you. A few moments pass.
“I feel like I’m making you uncomfortable.”
You grinned, leaning your head back to look at him upside down. “Not really.” You widened your eyes playfully before looking back down at your notes.
Kirk snorted, stepping back “I’ll go make some breakfast,” He walked over to the cupboards and you used the excuse that you needed a break as you watched him bring down a few things--plates and pancake mix. He then walked to the fridge to bring out a few more things--syrup, bacon, and eggs. You’d always liked his cooking--he was the one who mainly did the cooking. You guys picked certain days every day out of the week to cook. Otherwise you either cook for yourselves, use your meal swipes or eat out by yourself or with other friends.
